Basketball Report

REORT: DeAndre Ayton told reporters one thing after the game, “The ball finds energy. They believe in me when I’m down there and sealing and they see me running hard to the rim and crashing, they reward me.” But he made his true feelings known as he made his way to the showers with his teammates.

“They’re trying to make me Clint Capela, I’m not no Clint Capela!”

Legendary Coach Gregg Popovich on LeBron James:

"Most people who score points are just scorers. This guy rebounds and I think he enjoys passing more than he does scoring. And when he wants to win a game, he can lock somebody down, he can guard. And most scorers don't do that. So he's a special one."
