Game at Austin. The Spurs has a nice roster with Fox, Wemby and a rising star in Castle. It's gonna be fun.

I will add the injury's report tomorrow. Hopefully Beal is back.

28 games left, we can do it! PLAYOFFS.

Damn, I got an email from the Spurs and I'm like "what's this about" and put it in spam. It probably had to do with that.

Cody Martin (sports hernia) is the only player on the Suns' injury report for their first game back tomorrow against the Spurs in Austin. He remains out.

Victor Wembanyama (illness) is doubtful for San Antonio.

Wow

The Spurs announce that a shoulder condition — specifically deep vein thrombosis — will sideline Victor Wembanyama for the remainder of the season.

Something seemed off with him the past couple of weeks. They said he was sick an upper respiratory infection but he was still putting up great numbers. Blood clots are not something to mess around with I know Ingram had the same thing and came back. I just hope this is not career ending for him. They likely have him on blood thinners already. Damn! get well Wemby you are the future face of this league.

Clippers @ Bucks
Lakers @ Blazers

Both LA teams with tough games tonight. Anteto and Lillard are questionable, that’s a shame. Doncic out.

Good night to start closing the gap with 5th and 6th...but we need to win (of course) and it will not be easy.

The Spurs have a net rating of -6.5 without Wemby (-0.7 with him), that's Brooklyn Nets level bad.

DVT freaks me out. The idea that suddenly your veins/artery/whatever it is gets blocked while you're just going about your day is pretty scary

They have a 2-3 record with Fox, slightly worse defensive rating 119.6 but slightly better offensive rating 118.8 since he arrived, not a huge difference maker. Wemby is the real game changer.

And we've lost to the Nets this season....
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.
