The Joker turnovers tonight were closer to Harden/Luka/Trae turnovers where he has a high number but the rest of the team has a simplified palette because of it. – 6:08 PM
Micah Adams @MicahAdams13
Average every MVP season in NBA history and you get 43.8 combined points, rebounds and assists per game.
There are SIX players doing it this season, tied for the most ever.
Giannis. Jokic. Embiid. LeBron. Durant. Doncic.
Just an absurd collection of top shelf talent. – 5:57 PM

Sixers say Joel Embiid will play tonight. He was listed as questionable with ankle soreness but just went through his pregame warm-up. – 5:31 PM
Chris Fedor @ChrisFedor
Sixers star Joel Embiid just came onto the court before #Cavs matchup for a pregame workout. There’s 44 minutes on the clock before tipoff. And he didn’t seem to be moving all that well. – 5:19 PM

#Cavs Rajon Rondo will play tonight. It’s his first game since March 12, when he suffered that nasty-looking ankle sprain. – 4:38 PM
Cleveland Cavaliers @cavs
Averaging 14.3 points & 11.7 rebounds over the last three games 💪 #LetEmKnow pic.twitter.com/JZJwNtjHOb4:36 PM

Joe Vardon @joevardon
Rajon Rondo (ankle) is going to play for the Cavs against the Sixers. He’s been out a few weeks with his latest injury, and needs some minutes to prepare for a Play-In/Playoff series. – 4:30 PM
Mike Trudell @LakersReporter
Anthony Davis has played in only 39 games this season, but he did outplay Joel Embiid in late January, going for 31 points, 12 boards and 4 blocks with 2 steals.
Today against Jokic, AD’s off to a good start, with 12 points on 5 of 9 FG’s, w/2 boards and a block in 8 minutes. – 4:09 PM
Ian Begley @IanBegley
From earlier: Big opportunity for Obi Toppin, who will likely get extended mins in NYK’s final 4 games; a thought on analyzing Julius Randle’s body language from afar; note on Darius Garland, who, like Donovan Mitchell, had late pre-draft workout for NYK: sny.tv/articles/knick…3:53 PM

Austin Krell @NBAKrell
A Bucks loss here brings the Celtics up to the 2-seed. Milwaukee down to 3. PHI can, at best, stay where they are.
Even at the 1- or 2-seed, Miami and Boston have a real chance of hosting BKN first round. – 3:32 PM

30-point, 15-assist performances this season (via @ESPNStatsInfo):

Georges Niang on these @Philadelphia 76ers:
“Even though we compete for minutes, we all have a genuine happiness for the other person. If you’re not playing, & they’re playing well, there’s genuine happiness. And that, I can promise you, isn’t happening everywhere.”

Shake Milton on growing alongside @Tyrese Maxey:
“Just seeing him blossom into what he is – he’s a star. The work he puts in, and the way that he comes out and performs each and every night, has been crazy.” – 1:52 PM

Games that matter today for the idle Bulls:
Heat at Raptors
Wiz at Celtics
Mavs at Bucks
76ers at Cavs
Toughest schedules left for those that matter in the East: 1. Boston, 2 BULLS, 3. Milwaukee, 4. Cleveland, 5. Toronto, 6. Miami, 7. Philly, 8. Nets – 12:22 PM
Joe Vardon @joevardon
The Cavs’ season turned on one injury. With him healthy, homecourt could still be on the table. Without him ever joining Cleveland, a .500 record at best. He is why injuries aren’t the only story of the Cavs’ late season struggle. ⁦@The Athletictheathletic.com/3226018/2022/0…12:04 PM
