Los Angeles Clippers forward Derrick Jones Jr. sustained a sprained MCL in his right knee and will be re-evaluated in six weeks, sources tell ESPN. Jones was averaging a career high 10.9 points per game prior to the injury Sunday in Boston.

Honestly it looked so much worse, so 6 weeks for a sprain is relatively good news for him.

Queta is +126 on the season.  The team is +64 on the season.  That means the team is -62 with Queta off the floor.

You prefer per100 possession stats?  Queta on the floor, team is +18.1 per100 possessions, team is -9.3 per100 possessions with him off the floor.

He has been a monster.  Team plays with more pace with him on the court (97.2 Pace vs. 96.6 Pace) and clearly creates a way better point differential, however you want to measure it.

Garza is -11.9 per100 Poss.  Garza and Queta have not been on the floor together for even 1 minute.  There are 269 possessions without either, and the team is -16 or -5.9 per100 possessions.  Quite the contrast.

Jaylen Brown's shooting numbers dropping slightly from his hot start. I forget what his TS% a while back. 61-63% - somewhere in that range. Now it is 58.7% TS. Right around league average. TS% is up across the league this season.

League average is 58.3% TS at the moment.

64.1% TS first 7 games, 54.7% TS the last 7 games.

But, +0.3 NETRTG first 7 games. +9.0 NETRTG last 7 games.

Not sure how to explain that disparity.

Neemias Queta has generated the most screen assist points in the NBA:

1. Neemias Queta ? 129
2. Alex Sarr ? 127
3. Domantas Sabonis ? 123
4. Rudy Gobert ? 121
5. Isaiah Hartenstein ? 111
     Jusuf Nurkic ? 111

He'd been in the school of Al Horford and Luke Kornet for a few years. Of course he's on this list.

Love a guy that does the dirty work.

It almost feels like Joe has punished him for his 25 point half last week.
or more likely Joe doesn't know what to do with him. 

I suspect his best utilization would be in the starting line-up in place of PP.  takes the offensive pressure of White and Brown and having PP off the bench would put more punch with the reserves.  having PP back with Hauser might also help Hauser get his shot back on track

Phenomenal growth in years 3-6.

Avdija is having a sensational season for Portland. Not getting the limelight he deserves. On track for an All-Star campaign. POR have a good chance at a playoff spot this year too.
bet Wash wish they held on to him at this point

Eddington - WOW.

The call back to COVID that I was not ready for.

The town of Eddington, New Mexico acts as a microcosm for the U.S. in 2020 as the town spirals into insanity. The movie dramatizes the craziness - but not by much.

Not a comfortable watch for the people who lived through it, but one I think will age miraculously as future generations who didnt will look back with morbid curiosity about what the pandemic was like.
