Hawks up 31-27 after a quarter. Not too bad considering I think Khem Birch might have been the best Raptor. – 8:05 PM

With his first assist tonight, Trae Young (23 years/198 days) is the second-youngest player in NBA history to reach 2,500 (L. James 23 y/80 d) … In his 277th career game, Young is the seventh-fastest player in NBA history to that total … He is 1 of 7 Hawks to ever hit 2,500. – 7:43 PM

ESPN Sources: Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (left knee) is likely to be out vs. the Milwaukee Bucks tonight (8 o’clock, ESPN). LaVine has only missed one game since the mid-February All-Star break. Bulls are fifth in East, tied with sixth-place Raptors at 45-33. – 3:18 PM

LeBron, Giannis and Embiid are fighting for the scoring title, but actually none of them will lead the NBA in points this season.
No. 1 will be either DeRozan or Trae.
Idea to disincentivize load management: Give the scoring title to the guy who actually scores the most points. – 2:56 PM
