Through three full quarters, the Wizards have 17 turnovers, which resulted in 28 Thunder points. The Thunder have only four turnovers (for six Wizards points). These stats indicate the differences in the teams’ defensive pressure tonight. The Thunder’s energy has overwhelmed. – 9:50 PM

Eugene Omoruyi just put down a forceful dunk in warm ups which impressed Shai Gilgeous-Alexander who was smiling ear to ear. It was impressive, standing under the goal I felt unsafe that it was about to come down – 6:32 PM

1. MIA sends Dedmon to IND for Johnson’s non-guaranteed. Waive JJ. Promote Robinson from 2-way. Become player on buyout market.
2. IND flips Dedmon and McConnell, plus a 1st (or two) to WAS for Kuzma. Sign Kuzma to extension. Ideal fit.
3. WAS gets a PG, picks. pic.twitter.com/pWB9z6WQOD – 4:03 PM
