- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

The Hornets planned to change their nickname since Tom Benson, owner of the New Orleans Saints, purchased the team on April 14. Benson also owns the rights to the nickname Pelicans.

What's up with your boy Drsd? I heard Kendall Marshall is heading to the D-League. He can't even get minutes on a team that's basically tanking. JK, he's not ready just yet but i guess time will tell me personally i think at best he'll be a career backup.

For a guy that makes a statement that he would like to see the NBA Final LA Lakers vs LA Lakers they should honor him with a team name. The guy should resign after making such statements. What a shame.

Jason Williams update
Steve Kyler @stevekylerNBA
Jason was looking at getting into scouting or coaching... he has been at a couple of Magic games this year.
Steve Kyler @stevekylerNBA
I sat with him this summer for about an hour, just talking basketball... he's finished playing, but he wants to stay involved in the game.
