Karl-Anthony Towns on if Andrew Wiggins had extra juice for the Timberwolves:
“He always does that. Any team — Cavaliers traded him, Wolves did. You expect it, to come out and play well. He was 9 of 9 in the first half. He won them the game.” – 12:56 AM

“Without Bron, Cleveland wouldn’t be s—-.”
Kyle Kuzma said Cavs fans who made a sign trolling his time with the Lakers “chose violence.” So, he hit a big shot and delivered the last word. nbcsports.com/washington/wiz… – 12:47 AM

Cavs may have intended to foul on Kuzma game-winning 3 (had one to give), but if that’s the case, can’t let Beal run by you (Stevens) and then leave a guy wide open in corner for a 3. Multiple mistakes, players and coach, in a matter of seconds. But, hey, 7-5 still pretty good! – 12:08 AM

I had no issue with #Cavs Darius Garland’s shot at the end of the game. The action with Rubio, him and Cedi was good. It caused two Wizards defenders to bump into each other. A 42% 3-point shooter got a great, open, in-rhythm look. Not sure he would’ve done better driving. – 12:00 AM

Hearing that the Wizards may have PG Spencer Dinwiddie guarding the three on defense tonight and matchup with Dean Wade (6-9) instead of Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.
Expect plenty of new looks defensively as Washington tries to combat the Cavs size in the front court. – 3:38 PM

Oregon, 8-1, moves up to No. 3 in the playoff rankings?
Great win: at Ohio State.
Next best win: Fresno State.
Beat Stony Brook.
Horrible loss: Stanford, which just lost to Utah, 52-7.
Four of its other five wins over teams below .500 (Arizona, Colorado, Cal, Washington). – 2:04 PM
