NBA Highlights

Charlotte's Malik Monk has been suspended for violating anti-drug program and will continue until he is determined to be in compliance

Lillard replying to an OKC fan on twitter “The fact that y’all can’t let this go just shows how bad it hurt your heart 🤷🏽‍♂️. You’re having a great season 💯"

Jaylen when asked about how much Tatum’s success motivates him: “I don’t look at it like he motivates me, I’m supporting him. We’re on the same team…It’s not a contrast, one against the other. A lot of times people try to dichotomize Jaylen and Tatum. We’re on the same team.”

Tatum's TS% just won't stop rising: OCT (48%), NOV (52%), DEC (56%), JAN (57%), FEB (65%)

Most regular-season “one shy” games in which the player missed a triple-double by one point, rebound, assist, steal or block: Oscar (71), Magic (64), JKidd (57), Bird (56), Lebron (51)
