Jazz doing a Pride Night tonight is a *big* deal… the PSA in the second timeout gets cheers. Props to everyone who made that happen — it hadn’t under old ownership. – 10:28 PM
Tony Jones @Tjonesonthenba
3:27 remaining in the first quarter. The Jazz lead the blazers 21-8….this game has no business being on national television….once the blazers started aggressively tanking this game shoulda been flexed – 10:27 PM

After the loss to Portland in the third game of the year, the Suns proceeded to go 6-0 on the last game of a road trip longer than a game. Tonight would make it 7-0. – 9:36 PM

The Wolves defensive rating moved from 15th in the league to 12th after that last game against POR
A shift of 0.6 points per 100 possessions. 66 games into the season, that’s wild. Remove garbage time and the shift was 0.5 – a boost from 14th to 11th, according to @Ben Falk5:17 PM
