Klay Thompson, unsolicited, acknowledged that he heard Charles Barkley say he’s not the same player he was before his injuries. “No, duh,” he said. “Who would be? It hurt hearing that. I put in so much effort to be the player I am. Give me some freakin’ time to get back.” – 1:34 AM

The last time the Warriors played the Heat, Jimmy Butler and Spo got into it on the bench. Why?
Warriors won 118-104 without Steph, Klay and Draymond. Jordan Poole went off with 30 points, 9 assists and 7 threes. Wiggins and Kuminga each scored 22 points – 1:40 PM

📅 On this day in 1984, Charles Barkley had 11 points and six rebounds in his NBA debut with the @Philadelphia 76ers.
Starting with his second season, Barkley averaged a double-double for 14 consecutive seasons, tied for the longest such streak in NBA history (min. 50% of team’s games). pic.twitter.com/npfr2p3Ucf – 10:31 AM
