Billups was asked if Blazers would feed Eubanks the ball more in his return to the AT&T Center:
“Not really…He’ll get his opportunities based on their coverages. Drew does a good job just finding his areas and his gaps to score the basketball, so he will have his chances.” – 7:29 PM
Jay Allen @PDXjay
Same starting lineup for the #Blazers tonight in San Antonio as they had last game against the Pelicans: Brandon Williams, Keon Johnson, Greg Brown III, CJ Elleby, and Drew Eubanks. #RipCity @RipCityRadio620 – 7:05 PM

If the Lakers beat the Pelicans tonight and the Spurs take care of Portland, LA will still be in 11th, but 9th-11th in the West will be separated by just one game with five remaining. – 6:36 PM

Spurs have upgraded Bates-Diop (back) from questionable to available for tonight. – 6:29 PM

“Somewhere where I’m accepted and feel comfortable. San Antonio is home for me.”

Jaylen Hoard has been signed to a 10 day contract.
Thunder play the Blazers again in 4 days. Jaylen may hoard all the minutes that night. – 6:04 PM

Jason Kidd slipped in an update about Mavs’ potential plans next week: “There’s some guys that could rest, definitely, next week.”
Expect Luka Doncic to be a candidate to sit against Detroit (Wednesday) or Portland (Friday) next week, been though he’ll likely want to play. – 6:02 PM

Per Spurs, Keita Bates-Diop is available tonight against Portland – 5:46 PM

With his Kentucky Wildcats out, Keldon Johnson knows who he is rooting for in the Final Four. Not Duke.
For that, blame Tre Jones. “I know that if Tre wins I am never going to hear the end of it,” Johnson says. – 4:07 PM

Wow! Clyde and Dame lead in almost every statistical category for our franchise. I’m going to keep working hard to get back healthy and hopefully someday reach some of these top 10’s.

Wouldn’t categorize the Steph Curry update as good or particularly bad news for Warriors. They initially thought there was outside chance he’d return for game or two. He won’t. Still on track for playoffs. Extra 24 mins vs Spurs on April 9 wouldn’t have changed continuity issues. – 3:36 PM

Josh Harrison has played against AJ Pollock since their college days. Harrison went to Cincinnati. Pollock to Notre Dame.
Harrison: “I know we’re going to welcome him with open arms, because I was welcomed with open arms.”
“He’s going to fit right in.” – 2:46 PM
