Asked Lynne Roberts about critiquing without leaving wounds: “That’s leadership, right? That’s coaching. ... If they’re great, they want to be coached. ... But that’s leadership. Accountability without enforcement is nothing. It’s just words.”

Really cool to see

.@USC_Baseball moves to 19-0 with a 2-0 win over Northwestern. It’s the Trojans’ sixth shutout of the season and matches the program record for consecutive wins (1955).

Most 20+ point G in Northwestern men’s basketball history: Nick Martinelli - 46 John Shurna - 45 Boo Buie - 41 Drew Crawford - 26 Bryant McIntosh - 23 Martinelli had 26 of those (56.5%) this season, tied for third-most in Big Ten history, behind only Zach Edey & Carsen Edwards.

Only three Clippers 23 years and younger have recorded more games with multiple three-pointers made in a season than Kobe Sanders: Eric Gordon - 37, 33 & 30 Quentin Richardson - 35 & 33 Landry Shamet - 29 Kobe Sanders - 22 and counting (Lamar Odom made 20 triples in 2000-01)

Most multi-3PM, multi-block games by players 21 or younger in NBA history: 1. Victor Wembanyama (36 in 23-24) 2. Victor Wembanyama (32 in 24-25) 3. Chet Holmgren (27 in 23-34) 4. Matas Buzelis (24 so far in 25-26) 5. Kristaps Porzingis (23 in 16-17) Swats and long shots!

Trojans remain unbeaten and are now a win away from tying the longest win streak in program history. Mason Edwards gave up his first run, giving up a solo HR on a day when wind was up to 30 mph howling out. (Adrian Lopez, Andrew Lamb, Jack Basseer, Augie Lopez all hit HR.)

The Clippers’ 153 points tonight match the franchise’s most in a game that didn’t go beyond regulation and tie for its second-most overall.

Kawhi Leonard is now tied with Stephen Curry for first in the NBA this season with three 45-point, multi-steal games. No other player has more than one in 2025-26.

@maddie_m_lee @Suntimes Congratulations, Maddie! Feel free to reach out if you need any help getting settled in LA.

Personal news: This is my last week at the @Suntimes. It's been an amazing four years at the paper and six covering the Cubs. I've worked with so many wonderful people and have fallen in love with Chicago. It's going to be hard to say goodbye. Thank you all for following along!

Before Bam Adebayo attempted 43 free throws tonight, the NBA record-holder was Dwight Howard. D12 attempted 39 free throws on two separate occasions, in 2012 and 2013, respectively.

New York Knicks lost tonight despite shooting 51.1% from the field, generating 32 assists, and having a +15 rebound advantage. Coming into tonight, teams were 1366-28 (.980) all-time when shooting 50% or better, having 30+ assists, and winning the rebound battle by at least 15.

@FlyByKnite @stanverrett Great Justin Russo stat. Love it!!

Final: Clippers 126, Knicks 118. The LA Clippers started 6-21. No team that’s been that bad through their first 27 games has ended up .500 or better, let alone reached .500 at any point during the season. Until now. Clippers are 32-32 after going 26-11 since that dreadful start.

@kareemcopeland So happy for you and basketball fans, Kareem!

Real talk, appreciate all the love and support as we start a new chapter. And blessed to stay in this women’s hoops space. We’ll get cranking soon.
