Doc Rivers on Tyrese Maxey’s mentors, Joel Embiid and Tobias Harris:
“[Joel and Tobias are] a pretty good influence. Both lead by example. I think they’re both doing that… Joel’s been phenomenal… Tobias – we jokingly call him the machine.” – 6:39 PM

Ahead of the @Philadelphia 76ers opener, Doc Rivers shares the advice he gave to Tyrese Maxey:
“Just play. That’s what I told [Tyrese]…
I want him to be very aggressive. One thing I’ve liked about him since getting him – he’s an extremely confident kid.” – 6:37 PM

Willie Green isn’t revealing the starting lineup in pregame but did say the starting backcourt will consist of a couple of guys who he thinks will help the Pelicans get off to a fast start. – 6:19 PM

Jaxson Hayes just threw a pretty mean dunk in warmups. Fingers crossed but ankle looks fully good to go. 👍🏼 – 6:05 PM

Tyrese Maxey getting ready to (we assume) start at point guard tonight. Read more about his experiences — and his affable-yet-fierce competitive streak and work ethic — that have prepared him for this:

Zion Williamson crossed 300 lbs this offseason? Damn. For point of reference, he and Zach LaVine are both 6’6″ and play an explosive game. Imagine if LaVine pushed another bill and didn’t change his game at all. I worry for Zion’s knees. – 5:36 PM

The Pelicans are 4-point underdogs tonight at home.
Over/under is 224.
Kinda like Philly and the over….so fade accordingly. – 4:45 PM

For @The Vertical: Joel Embiid can solve the 76ers saga by asking Daryl Morey to trade Ben Simmons now.
