Tom Withers: Cavs owner Dan Gilbert told AP he’s confident Donovan Mitchell will sign an extension with Cleveland this summer. Story upcoming.

He’s also eligible to sign an extension this season, but the two sides haven’t reached an agreement. The belief is that Los Angeles isn’t willing to match Paul George’s expectations for his next contract. Reports have circulated suggesting the Clippers’ offer is less than Leonard’s three-year, $149.7 million extension.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Patrick Beverley could miss three to four months if he has surgery on his right wrist. Beverley has a torn ligament and will eventually need surgery to repair it. The Bucks have yet to announce any injury or procedure for Beverley. The veteran guard announced the injury, and the need for surgery, on his show The Pat Bev Pod.

The end of the game was certainly not. The Sixers were hot about successive and-1s that Kawhi Leonard got. The second, with 15.7 seconds remaining, gave the Clippers a 1-point lead. Then, Oubre drove the paint, hard, drew contact from George and got nothing. And verbally detonated. “We’re not perfect. The refs aren’t perfect,” Oubre said. “I want to apologize for just losing my cool because that’s something I work on each and every day, try to represent God in the best way I possibly can, and that wasn’t it.

The Clippers will soon play in a new arena. They have a better team than the Lakers, meaning they have a better chance of winning a championship than their in-town rivals. And with their championship window closing soon, the Clippers know George’s presence gives them the best chance to win. So it doesn’t make sense to allow him to walk in free agency — unless they’re unwilling to give him a maximum salary at this age and other teams are game for that deal. That is why the Sixers are closely monitoring the situation... Читать дальше...

How would you describe this Lakers season? D’Angelo Russell: I think we’re much better than our record. We match up, adjust, and do all these different things in the flow of the game. The problem is we’ve got 12 different guys that can be out there. When that random group of five is out there, the familiarity with what we’re trying to do is on the fly. A lot of teams have five or six guys that know they’re always going to have an idea who’s going to be in and where’s this and that. We’ve got a... Читать дальше...

What are your thoughts on Anthony Davis’ play this season and the injury-prone label he’s had? D’Angelo Russell: I think that’s a huge misconception. It does nothing but motivate him. I’ve never seen him take a game off defensively. He might not win the matchup, but he’s always there. There’s no night off defensively for him. That’s his bread and butter. I’ve seen him rise in the playoffs, where it’s a different level, and he dominates. I’ve always got his back in that sense.

How are LeBron James and Kobe Bryant similar and different from your experiences with both? D’Angelo Russell: I played with Kobe on his way out, and I’m playing with LeBron, who I still think is at the tip of his prime. Not his prime, but you get better the older you get in some cases. I feel like he’s still getting better in the sense of having to do more with less athleticism, obviously. It shows every aspect of his game, his shooting and post game. I got Kobe on the way out. The language he spoke was foreign to me at that time. Читать дальше...

How did you and Austin Reaves form your bromance? D’Angelo Russell: I think we both honestly were caught in the pickle of how to play next to these guys. You have LeBron, Anthony Davis, and this Lakers whirlwind kind of haunting you always, good or bad, because you’ll be trending for something. When I got here, he was that fresh fruit that was kind of that golden child. I remember being that and going through the ups and downs. I always tried to take pride in preparing him for what was about to... Читать дальше...

Anyone expecting a detailed update Wednesday on 76ers center Joel Embiid’s return-to-play process were out of luck. ”He’s on the court as you guys know, and we still don’t have a timeline for his return,” Sixers coach Nick Nurse said before his team’s 108-107 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers at the Wells Fargo Center. Embiid has been sidelined since tearing the meniscus in left knee against the Golden State Warriors on Jan. 30. The reigning MVP had surgery on Feb. 6 and is on pace to return the first or second week of April. Читать дальше...
