    This might be a game we might have a chance to win one due to there hurting just a bad as we are.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    What's Trae Young's career high?

    Let's set that as the over/under for the number of points he scores in this game.

    Roco and watford should be back. Nurk probably misses one more game. Also, CJ was supposed to be re-evaluated recently, maybe he plays too.

    Sad. If we sweep this homestand, we’re still 5 games below .500.

    Has anyone heard if anyone of these players or coaches has anything more than mild symptoms? Most seem asymptomatic.

    Just sit Dame for the season.

    "Injury management" is new, though. Wonder if it's starting now?

    Agreed. Shut him down.

    Is Simons out too? Will DSJ and Ben start?

    Battle of the benches + G League players with Trae Young jacking up as many shots as his arms will allow.

    How far back are we from having the best odds in the lottery?

    We need a "lottery watch" thread.

    Sounds like Nurk and Zeller have a chance to be cleared for tomorrow. Also Roco and watford are back.

    Nurk and Zeller are listed as doubtful. That investment in season tickets (or anyone who bought single game tickets for this week) sure looks like a complete scam at this point. Definitely not the product sold to fans.

    I mean, given the state of the world right now, how exactly is it a scam? We're in a freaking pandemic and half the league is in protocol. You know the fluidity of the situation if you're buying a ticket or paying for season tickets.
