NBA


  • Jrue Holiday matched his career high 40 points to help lift the Milwaukee Bucks to their 11th straight win. Milwaukee beat an injury riddled Boston Celtics in OT 131-125. Holiday saying after the game:

“I don't really, I guess, care for how I'm playing as long as we're winning. For me, as long as we get the win, I'm OK. The only stat I look at is turnovers. That's kind of how I determine if I had a good or bad game. Tonight, what did I have, five turnovers? To me, that hurts my soul."



  • Kawhi Leonard put up 33 points, tying his career high 7, 3-pointers, and the Los Angeles Clippers stopped a 2-game losing streak and beat the Golden State Warriors 134-124 on Tuesday. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr saying in post game:

“The Clippers just outplayed us. They were great in the second half and they deserved it.”

"It's hard waking up and (trying to) figure this out. I try not to think about it. Try to be busy and do something, because it's gotta be in your head, and the guys are wondering. … We'll see what's happening. Hopefully, the guys can get two points for us tonight."


  • The significant interest in San Jose Sharks forward Timo Meier is definitely spreading. The Toronto Maple Leafs and Vegas Golden Knights joined the New Jersey Devils and Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday in their expressed interest in pursuing the 27-year-old.
