Man that defensive possession was something
Bam on Melo means Melo is giving it up
Duncan holds the angle baseline
Kyle strips it on the Hayward drive – 7:52 PM

That Memphis game tomorrow will be tough on the 2nd night of a back to back
That’s why this game tonight would be big for Miami
4-1 if you win
In danger of 3-3 if you lose
It’s still early but the key of the season is not falling behind early in the tough part of the schedule – 6:13 PM

Erik Spoelstra says Kyle Lowry (elbow) also will warm up with intent to play. So basically, looks like everyone but Oladipo (recovery), Garrett (G League) available. Crisis averted. – 5:49 PM

#Hornets are exercising LaMelo Ball’s third-year option on his rookie contract and are also exercising the fourth-year option on PJ Washington’s deal, league sources told @theobserver. Moves were expected. Ball will earn $8.6 million next season. Washington gets $7.9 million. – 3:15 PM
