It’s a little known rule in the NFL rulebook, that if Washington is starting a backup or replacement QB, the game must be played at night on national TV. – 7:17 PM

The Washington Wizards are signing G/F Jordan Schakel on a 10-day hardship exemption, source tells ESPN. He’s been shooting 48 percent on three-pointers over his last eight games for the Capital City Go-Go of the G-League. – 2:08 PM

The Rockets own Brooklyn’s 2022 first-round pick (currently 28th) but have the right to swap it with Miami’s (22nd) via the Oladipo trade so long as it’s not in the lottery.
We should be pulling for teams like Philly, Washington, Boston, Charlotte and/or Atlanta to pass Miami. – 1:42 PM
