Congratulations to @QueCraWford, the first-year head coach, on leading the @StocktonKings to their first @nbagleague championship in franchise history.

Welcome to New Mexico @coachstapes10! Assistant Coach Sam Stapleton joins the UNM coaching staff after four seasons at UCSD. #505SVF | #GoLobos

@HalfCourtHoops Have not seen it done but if you’re up 3 with this little time left I like the idea of pulling another Gtown player off the line & matching up man to man to take away the 3. You can afford to give up a ORB putback. Takes the pressure off one guy being responsible for two up top

PERFECT execution of intentionally missing a FT, rebounders "X" & grab the offensive rebound and finding a shooter. Just missed. Fantastic late game execution.

Unbelievable season for @CoachBeck1 and @CSUDHmbb. No surprise that in a defeat that came down to the last play he, his staff and players are all class. A team that was built with high character young men that will be remembered forever. #TheManInTheArena

@TomCrean @CoachBenJohnson The irony is that Hawkins played two years at Howard then transferred to Minn for one year and Battle (from MN) went to GWU for two years before going to Minn. Not saying they didn’t get better at Minn but neither guy went there out of HS and Minn got them to “transfer up”.

Jamison Battle. My apologies. Total mistake. Either way ,@CoachBenJohnson can really develop and Coach. If he had have had a player named Jameson Brewer he would have made him a Pro too. 😎

On to the next💪 @CSUDHmbb advances to the #D2MBB semifinals! #MEliteEight | #MakeItYours

✅ CCAA TITLE ✅ CCAA TOURNAMENT ✅ WEST REGION TITLE Can’t say enough about this group!

Back-2-Back @goccaa titles & the 1st outright in school history! Much more 🏀 to be played!

After leading @CSUDHmbb to a shared conference championship last season, my best friend @CoachBeck1 just led his Dominguez Hills Toros to their first outright CCAA championship in school history! Couldn’t have happened to a better person! Let’s Go Toros 🤘🏀

@NStauskas11 As someone that recruited Kessler & coached him I can tell you he’s zero maintenance, very self aware and coachable. In the NBA he’s a versatile defender with length and defensive feel. With all the Mavs injuries & switching they are doing I’m guessing he’s earned Kidd’s trust.

I mean no disrespect by this. Asking as a happily retired player lol. How in the hell does Kessler Edwards have a job in the NBA? Let alone a starter for a team coming off an NBA finals run. I’m just confused as to what his strengths are and what he does to impact a game?

This really stings. Lou Colombano (along with Kathy) were the most supportive boosters in my 14 years at Pepperdine because they were full of love. They often traveled with us and loved being around the guys. They were the same when we won or lost - the best! Love you Lou.

Goodbye, Taraflex Hello, hardwood Quick turnaround for the second act of today’s Dawg doubleheader, with @UW_MBB taking on @RiverHawkMBB. Tip-off at 7:30 pm PT with @jimpelman on @BigTenPlus!

Fun night in Seattle for my daughter getting to watch her Godfather @CoachBeck1 and his Toros squad get the road win.

The Danny Sprinkle era on Montlake begins tonight! A new look @UW_MBB squad, anchored by All-American Great Osobor, hosts @WOU_MBB in an exhibition contest. Tipping off at 7 pm with @jimpelman on @BigTenPlus!

Congrats to ⁦@DrakeLondon_⁩ on the game winning touchdown on MNF. Recruited him at Pep. If he chose bball would have been an all WCC guy and pro. Great person, family and leadership from ⁦@BTIHoops⁩. Happy for all your success.

@PepperdineWaves Well deserved @PeppCompliance

🆙 Congrats to Amanda Kurtz on her promotion to Senior Associate AD for Internal Operations! gowav.es/4e4YHtG

The Sacramento Kings are hiring Quinton Crawford as head coach of the franchise’s NBA G League Stockton Kings, sources tell @TheAthletic. Crawford, 33, spent last seven seasons as an NBA assistant, including 2023-24 in Phoenix. He was part of the 2020 Lakers championship staff.

@LACourtReport Yes great call!
