David Fizdale on Lakers coach Frank Vogel: “Frank has Covid, & he’s at the house watching the game tonight. Of course, we met today as a staff on Zoom & he helped us attack the game plan and get prepared and all the good stuff. Then he turns it over to us and let us do the rest.” – 9:28 PM

Herb Jones has a block in 11 straight games for the Pelicans.
That’s the second-longest streak in franchise history for consecutive games with a block for a rookie.
The only one longer is Anthony Davis who had a 13-game streak in 2012-13. – 8:04 PM

A full-day news cycle around memorializing the change of an arena name from one corporate sponsor to another is why the Lakers are the forever top of the Prestige Zone franchise rankings. – 7:45 PM
Bill Oram @billoram
No real surprise here, but Lakers head coach Frank Vogel remains in health and safety protocols, meaning David Fizdale is in line to serve as acting head coach for a third straight game. – 7:32 PM

PMers: G Leaguer Andre Ingram made headlines in 2018, when he got his NBA call up after 10 years, w/the Lakers. But he had another dream, fulfilled in October: being a contestant on his favorite game show, “Wheel of Fortune.” And winning. In @TheAthletic: bit.ly/3JiQG5o6:00 PM

“I had missed playing and competing. Then it was, ‘What the hell are you complaining about? This is what you’ve been after.’”
