@SleeperWizards Sometimes you’re just desperate enough to settle.

@JakeLFischer One tiny little brick for the last card I needed to build another city? Worst trade you’ve ever reported, this is why you lose to me every time

I will trade anyone an ore for a brick.

@oliversfox Consider it a gentlemen’s agreement.

@JakeLFischer As long as you don’t take my 2:1 wheat port you can have the bricks

@daisysroberts @wrbbsports Great to hear, Daisy. My email is in my bio. Please reach out if I can ever be of help to another 104.9 alum.

@JakeLFischer @wrbbsports Not much has changed! We still go all over, sent a basketball crew to Akron earlier this year, I'm at Penn State for the Women's Frozen Four after getting stranded by a blizzard in Minnesota last weekend for the NCAA QFs. Playoff season is special 🔥

When Northeastern made the Big Dance in 2015, our @wrbbsports crew’s flight out of Boston was so delayed, we missed the connection in D.C. to Pittsburgh, so we rented a car and drove through the night because they had the first 12:15 ET game of the whole damn tournament. @KannoYoungs, @kroopnick and I had like 4 hours of sleep, but the adrenaline was so high as they almost beat Notre Dame, that fucking broadcast rocked. Love this clip. And High Point’s upset means they get another call. March…

@itsCSB__ Appreciate you.

@JakeLFischer great stuff as always

Speaking of March… It still sounds as though AJ Dybantsa is the leader in the clubhouse to go No. 1 overall in June, even with BYU’s loss last night. More draft notes to accompany your Tourney viewing here: tinyurl.com/5hbsujmk

Plus, this vantage point of Kuminga’s Atlanta arrival, from Hawks’ centerpiece Jalen Johnson: “JK's just like a dog ready to be unleashed.” My full story below: tinyurl.com/26mantcc

Good scoop from Eric. This was a dynamic that league figures around Milwaukee and Giannis Antetokounmpo were already expecting back in early February could cause some friction if the Bucks didn’t trade their All-Star before the deadline. Now, here we are…

LaMelo is a treasure of a personality.

CA-CAW

We’ve got even more Atlanta coverage coming up soon…

Would rock at the rave.

Milwaukee’s Giannis Antetokounmpo has now been ruled out of today’s game against Atlanta with a left ankle sprain. The @JakeLFischer Latest covers the revamped Hawks in depth: tinyurl.com/48w94ns3

@aepstein_ Probably my favorite NBA thing I’ve written in a while. Thanks much, Adam.

@JakeLFischer great read jake.

As the streaking Hawks host Milwaukee this afternoon, a reminder that Atlanta never emerged as a serious Giannis Antetokounmpo suitor. Why? In part because they’re already building through Jalen Johnson. "I got reassurance from everyone around here that that's not the plan,” Atlanta’s All-Star told @TheSteinLine. “Obviously it means a lot ... the trust they have in me and the belief they have in me."

The Utah Jazz are signing Bez Mbeng to a 10-day contract, per sources. The Yale product has spent this 2025-26 season with the Sioux Falls Skyforce.

Former San Antonio Spurs first-round pick Malaki Branham has signed into the G League, sources say, and will join the Cleveland Charge.

What a quote from Fred VanVleet: “A nice little campfire makes you feel warm. You got marshmallows and s’mores. But if it turns into a wildfire — that kind of feels like where we are right now. I don’t know how you rein it back in.”

Good stuff from @JakeLFischer who talked to Jared McCain about the trade and life in OKC marcstein.substack.com/p/the-trade-sh…
