Look at this 1-on-1 defense from Mawot Mag to end the half. He shuts down Bruce Thornton here and he guarded Zed Key for an extended time in the 2nd half. His ability to guard 1-5 is key to the Rutgers defense.

Swiss Army Knife.

The Boston Celtics are signing two-way wing Ron Harper Jr. to a new two-year deal, agent Drew Gross of WME Basketball tells ESPN. Harper has played a key Celtics rotation role at times this season while spending time starring for their Maine G League affiliate.

We are back at Jersey Mike’s Arena for the annual battle of student media supremacy on the hardwood, in the basketball game between @WRSU and @daily_targum. I’ll have a postgame story to follow for @RutgersOn3!

Mr. Prescott, it has been an honor to watch you for the past decade. Will never take you for granted.

I just watched Dak Prescott outduel one of the greatest quarterbacks ever in likely the most watched game ever. You know, the same Dak Prescott that Cowboys fans want off their team. That Dak Prescott

[Dave Sturchio @DaveSturchio]

Sometimes when you get older and look at people younger than you, you almost try and convince yourself that it's weird to call em your hero or something.

Dak Prescott is simply one of the best Cowboys we've ever had on and off the field. He's doing everything in life with purpose. Ultimately for his mom and brother but now for his wife and kids.

When he did his media piece about mental health it spoke to me enough that when I was truly thinking of calling it quits, he spoke to me. Not literally. Just through his actions and words. I have @dak to thank for even being alive if I'm being fully transparent. One day I hope to tell him this right to him but in the meantime, I hope folks stop looking at "Championships" when judging a man.

I don't have any. I would hope people look at me as a voice they can turn to in tough times like Dak was for me.

End rant. Sorry. Go Cowboys.

This whole thing is so embarrassing for the Cowboys.

Failing to get the Micah thing done. Making it about pride and ego. Destroying the current team.

And sending him to the team that totally broke the team in a way they still haven't recovered from.

[Tyrese Haliburton @Hali]

Man. Don’t know how to explain it other than shock. Words cannot express the pain of this letdown. The frustration is unfathomable. I’ve worked my whole life to get to this moment and this is how it ends? Makes no sense.

Now that I’ve gotten surgery, I wish I could count the number of times people will tell me I’m going to “come back stronger”. What a cliche lol, this shit sucks. My foot feels like dead weight fam. But what’s hurting most I think is my mind. Feel like I’m rambling, but I know this is something I’ll look back on when I’m through this, as something I’m proud I fought through. It feels good to let this shit out without y’all seeing the kid ugly cry.

At 25, I’ve already learned that God never gives us more than we can handle. I know I’ll come out on the other side of this a better man and a better player. And honestly, right now, torn Achilles and all, I don’t regret it. I’d do it again, and again after that, to fight for this city and my brothers. For the chance to do something special.

Indy, I’m sorry. If any fan base doesn’t deserve this, it’s y’all. But together we are going to fight like hell to get back to this very spot, and get over this hurdle. I don’t doubt for a second that y’all have my back, and I hope you guys know that I have yours. I think Kobe said it best when in this same situation. “There are far greater issues/challenges in the world then a torn achilles. Stop feeling sorry for yourself, find the silver lining and get to work with the same belief, same drive and same conviction as ever.” And that’s exactly right. I will do everything in my power to get back right.

My journey to get to where I am today wasn’t by happenstance, I’ve pushed myself every day to be great. And I will continue to do just that. The most important part of this all, is that I’m grateful. I’m grateful for every single experience that’s led me here. I’m grateful for all the love from the hoop world. I don’t “have to” go through this, I get to go through this. I’m grateful for the road that lies ahead. Watch how I come back from this. So, give me some time, I’ll dust myself off and get right back to being the best version of Tyrese Haliburton.

(long-winded sports media rant here that I'll possibly turn into a video at some point)

This article mentions the massive industry wide layoffs and cuts over the last decade to traditional written sports journalism, and I think a downstream effect that nobody has mentioned yet is that because of that industry crumbling, networks like ESPN and FS1 have drastically reduced up and coming talent pools to work with, and it's really hurting sports TV.

It's no wonder they fill seats on debate shows with so many ex-players now. There is a whole missing generation of young-ish writers and radio hosts that basically *doesn't exist*, because almost the whole traditional sports journalism industry is gone.

And here's the real underlying issue - while yes, a lot of the sports writers or radio hosts that network TV would usually poach from never played in the league...and most of them certainly didn't come to the network with their own baked-in celebrity or national brand...many of them had a skill that not a lot of ex-players possess.

They can tell a good story.

Great sports content - even on debate shows or analytical shows - is all about being able to coherently craft a narrative. Narratives are what make the games compelling. It's why we all care about this stuff.

Every Sunday in the fall, we get to see Scott Hanson guide us through a hundred simultaneous hero's journeys playing out in the Octobox.

Every four years, we see small nations take on global superpowers on the pitch.

Every century or so, we see a Monégasque driver sit atop the podium in Monaco, thinking about his father.

Writers know how to write stories. They know how to make the audience care about the games. There are many ex-players on TV that really don't know how to do that all, so they just yell out a talking point that half the time they don't even believe in, just because it gets attention.

And let me tell you; the greatest trick the devil ever played on sports television executives was making them think that getting the audience's attention was more important than getting the audience's investment.

A smaller pipeline of sports writers in traditional media means less and less story tellers end up on sports TV. That is bad for everyone.

My only hope is that YouTube becomes the new breeding ground for that talent to grow and develop. All of that creativity has to go somewhere, I guess.

Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey took massive risks coming to Rutgers. Likely could’ve made more money elsewhere. Definitely could’ve won more games elsewhere. I would go to war for them for that and they will instantly be my favorite NBA players. This team failed them and that sucks.
