Chicago has shot 80%+ from the free-throw line in each of its last 13 games, marking the longest such streak in a season in team history. There have only been 6 streaks as long in NBA history with the record 14-straight by OKC (2011), GSW (2013) & CHA (2017).

A lot has happened with the Thunder, I’ve watched Scoot play twice, let’s have a mailbag folks! Drop any questions you have about the NBA, life, or anything else below and I’ll record tomorrow morning so the offer still stands for after the Wiz game! pic.twitter.com/nIvdGVCV8O – 5:56 PM

Marcin Gortat, who spent a week or so around the team during the preseason as an alumni guest instructor, attended the Wizards’ walkthrough this afternoon and will be here for tonight’s game against the Thunder. He’s on the court now as players do their early shooting routines. – 5:09 PM

You know that one crazy Thunder fan with the mask and giant megaphone who distracts opposing players at the free-throw line every home game?
Well, I wrote a feature on him!
Please consider giving it a read and learning more about the man behind the mask:

Has the Warriors’ title window closed?
Is SGA an outlier?
What’s Paolo Banchero’s one weak spot?

“I didn’t know one of the dudes on the team was 18. That’s what’s up.” – 2:39 PM

Interesting given the parade of steals that powered the #Celtics‘ win on Monday, they’re tied for last in forcing turnovers with Washington (12.6). Disruption was such a big part of their identity on defense last year. They haven’t blown up many plays this year away from Tatum. – 1:59 PM

Ousmane Dieng is really frustrated with the officiating in this game. He thought he was fouled on that last drive, came back off the inbound and hit a three to gain the lead for OKC before a Scoot Henderson floater tied it up. Get to ESPN+ this one is fun. – 1:49 PM

Scoot Henderson & Ousmane Dieng we’re the headliners for this Ignite vs Blue game
So far, both haven’t had their best game after 3Qs:

Scoot – 11 pts on 5/13, 4 asts & 3 rebs – 1:34 PM

For the first time in his career, Ousmane Dieng is struggling to get going in this game for the Blue. It will be interesting how he responds in the fourth quarter. Up to this point he has been dominating in the G, but everyone has an off game now and then. – 1:28 PM

The Washington Wizards have won four consecutive games — all without Bradley Beal. With Beal set to return tonight, what do the team and Beal need to do to maintain the team’s momentum? Here’s my piece for @The Athletic.
