Luka really won the EuroLeague title,
EuroLeague MVP, EuroLeague Final Four MVP, and the Spanish ACB title and MVP before even being drafted (at age 19)
ESPN Sources: The Memphis Grizzlies are signing guard Zavier Simpson on a 10-day contract. Simpson has averaged 19.5 points and 8.3 assists for Motor City of the G League. Grizzlies are also signing forward Maozinha Pereira to a second 10-day contract.
Per Woj’s story, he subbed out after 4 minutes because his eyeball hurt and the under on Jontay Porter 3s was the biggest $$$ winner of any player prop that day 💀
Toronto Raptors center Jontay Porter is out of the lineup and a subject of an NBA investigation into irregularities on prop betting involving him, sources tell

Soon we’ll have one giant television distribution package where every content company combines and has their own channel of sorts. Then, users can flip through and watch what they want. We’ll call it “cable”
Fox, Warner Bros and Disney are set to launch a new sports streaming joint venture in the Fall.
The venture will put ESPN, TNT and Fox Sports on a new app together.

The creative bankruptcy of NBA media is a bummer…
Wemby just turned 20. Let SAS build something. Instead, we’re speculating on him forcing his way to a different market 60 games into his career? Can’t think of any other storylines? Convinced these folks don’t like basketball.
ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne: “Victor is here and he wants to win... I don’t know how patient he’s going to be (with the
#Spurs
)… I don’t think he wants to sit here at the bottom of the lottery standings.”

Tobias Harris has earned $211,814,772 in his career - the most of ANY player to not make All-Star game in NBA history…
Only 31 and positioned to get another lucrative deal this summer
Anthony Edwards is still only 22 and doesn’t turn 23 until August…
Younger than guys like Jaimie Jaquez Jr., Keegan Murray, Scottie Barnes, Evan Mobley, Craig Porter Jr., Austin Reaves (by 3 years), etc.
Impossible how ahead-of-schedule he is & how far away he is from his peak
Mikal Bridges has played 381 consecutive games. Needs 811 more to catch up to A.C. Green’s 1,192 consecutive games played record
Green played every game from November 1986 to April 2001…
The Shohei Ohtani stuff is getting insane. Think about how crazy it is—it’s NOT like an NBA player being great at offense & defense…
Hitting/pitching are basically two entirely unique skillsets. It’s more like being a top 5 basketball player and top 10 golfer in the world
Shohei Ohtani went 3-for-3 with 2 home runs and struck out 10 batters while allowing only 1 run as the Los Angeles Angels beat the Chicago White Sox, 4-2.

Franz Wagner in a W tonight:
36 PTS
68.2 TS%
5/12 3P (41.7%)
5 AST
Franz has scored 34+ in 3 out of his last 4 games. 40% on 6.4 3PA/g in 11 games since returning from injury. Deadly two-way stud.
In ‘09-‘10, Garald Wallace played 76 games and averaged 41.0 (!!!) minutes per game for the Charlotte Bobcats…
He averaged 18.2 PPG, 10.0 RPG, 1.5 SPG, 1.1 BPG. All-Star, 1st Team All-Defense, 3rd in DPOY voting. Dawg.
Ben Simmons dropping 42 PTS, 12 AST, and 9 RBS against the Jazz in 2021 feels like a very distant memory
Such a bummer how this story has turned out—it’s like watching a completely different player…
Lonzo Ball confirming he’ll miss the entire ‘23-‘24 season…
So sad. His career arc deserved so much better. All he did since he came into the league was compete hard on defense, play unselfish ball, and improve his shot a ton & his body let him down.
Wemby tonight:
27 PTS
10 REB
8 AST
5 BLK
5 STL
The youngest player to have a 5x5 game since 1973-74, the first season that blocks and steals were official stats. 🤯
Daniel Gafford last 5 games:
7/7 FG
5/5 FG
7/7 FG
9/9 FG
5/5 FG
He has made 33 (!!!) straight FGA, 2 shy of Wilt Chamberlain’s consecutive FGM record - SO CLOSE TO HISTORY! Also added 7 blocks in a win over GSW tonight. Mavs 4 straight wins.
The Detroit Pistons are currently 0-25 against teams above .500
No team has ever gone winless against teams above .500 for an entire season. The closest were the ‘15-‘16 Philadelphia 76ers who went 1-52
The NBA's competition committee has officially begun reviewing whether the game has become too advantageous for offense and whether some changes need to be implemented to achieve better balance, per

Jordan Poole signing a $140m extension and then being pretty bad all season and looking lost in the playoffs for the defending champs has probably been an underrated story
Sources: Detroit Pistons F/C Isaiah Stewart punched Phoenix's Drew Eubanks in the back tunnels of Suns arena today. It's unclear what sparked the altercation. The NBA is expected to receive footage to review. More to come.
