I watched the Bucks Raptors game last night. Thought Matt looked really solid in the 8 min he played. Hit a 3 and a mid range 2. Wish the Bucks would have signed him. Probably could have had some minutes for him.
When Barry Stevens, Victor Alexander, and Jeff Grayer were briefly on the same team together it was the first time in NBA history that the top three scorers in the history of a division 1 team were all simultaneously on the same NBA squad.1992-93 season. Jeff Hornacek, Jeff Grayer, Victor Alexander and Barry Stevens. Vic and Barry both played for Golden State - but Barry only played in two or three games. So, while there were 4 Cyclones in the NBA, they did NOT all score 3 pointers on the same day/night.
When Barry Stevens, Victor Alexander, and Jeff Grayer were briefly on the same team together it was the first time in NBA history that the top three scorers in the history of a division 1 team were all simultaneously on the same NBA squad.
1. Grayer, 2,502 (still #1)
2. Stephens, 2,190 (currently #3 - 2. Niang, 2,228)
3. Alexander, 1,892 (currently #5 - 4. Hoiberg, 1,993)
Hoops updates from Tuesday: 1. I was in transti but apparently Mississippi Valley State sucks. 2. OKC Thunder played 10 guys, none of which was named Deonte or Abdel. They got the W. 3. Naz was on the Pacers' bench but, for the 2nd straight time, got a DNP. But a bigger check. And I'm sure was entertaining on the bench.
The NBA story was Monte again. Gary Harris hurt his ankle which probably led to additional minutes for Big Game. Good final line: 22 MIN, 11 PTS, 5=7 FG, 0-1 3PT, 1-2 FT, 2 REB, 8 AST, 1 STL, 1 TO. Reports are that Monte and company looked good in a a solid win over Miami.
The opposite way that Monte and Plumlee usually connect:
I did some checking to see what I could find on THT's health. I found an article from 10/27 that he would be resuming practice soon so he may very well be working out again. Here's a blurb:
As for Horton-Tucker, his return is even more imminent as he’s on pace to be cleared for practice as early as next week.
“Like Kuz, he’s continuing to progress with the intensity of his work … He’s going to be cleared for practice next week, so hopefully we can ramp up his activity,” Vogel shared.
If Horton-Tucker is cleared for practice next week, he could be ready for games shortly after that. His length and defensive prowess could be useful for the Lakers on the perimeter as they lack depth in the perimeter defense category.

Also, "defensive prowess"???? May not be a credible source.
