Apparently the NBA thought 2 games without a technical foul was too many for Jae’Sean Tate, so here comes Tyler Ford and his itchy trigger finger to save the day – 8:01 PM

With the Grizzlies lineup tonight, the fact the books have Ziaire Williams point total at 10.5 seems like a gift – 8:00 PM

Good evening from Memphis where the Grizzlies have had an epidemic of “we’re-clinched-soreness. Your officials for the Grizz vs. Suns: Zach Zarba, Tom Washington and Natalie Sago. Somewhere in the upper Midwest, @badunclep is celebrating this trio. – 7:47 PM

Stanford alum and Phoenix Mercury guard, Kiana Williams surprised the Stanford team just now here in Minneapolis as they get ready to head to the stadium for the National Semi-Final game against UConn.

Taylor Jenkins says Ja Morant is ramping up a little bit and feeing good. Next Thursday is the day he’s expected to be reevaluated. – 6:24 PM
Doug Smith @SmithRaps
Terrible, horrible, sad news that CP icon Neil Stevens has died. A funny, loving, interesting, intriguing character. The world is worse off with the passing of a great guy and a beloved colleague.
I’ll eventually run a loop of Dylan and have a few in his memory.
RIP, Loose – 5:55 PM
