Buffalo’s Maceo Jack a game-high 18 points in the Bulls 69-60 win over North Texas. Pretty good 24 hours for the family as his mother, UB head women’s basketball coach Felisha Legette-Jack, had her number retired at Syracuse yesterday. – 10:16 PM

Nikola Jokic is too much for Dwight Powell or anybody else right now. Nuggets up 73-63. Jokic with 21 points, 11 rebounds. But a Porzingis 3-pointer makes it 73-66. – 9:31 PM

To be fair:
Blake James took the Miami AD job when the school was knee-deep in the Shapiro/NCAA nonsense and stuck it out after finding out how bad it really was. Got a slew of facilities built or improved. Academic numbers elite.
But football didn’t win. And here we are. – 5:40 PM

📅 On this day in 2017, the @Philadelphia 76ers Joel Embiid had 46 points, 15 rebounds, seven assists, and seven blocks in a win over the Lakers.

So a new athletic director will determine Manny Diaz’s fate. Likely a new AD would want his own guy. But we’ll see. Blake James had wanted to continue in role as AD but won’t get the chance. – 5:24 PM
