The Boston Celtics have gotten off to the best start possible since essentially exchanging Kemba Walker for Kyrie Irving. They continued their winning ways with an impressive victory over Luka and the Mavs, despite Tatum’s historically awful performance.
Kemba stops on a dime and steps back! 👌

Brandon Brooks was one of the best OL in football before a down season last year that then ended with a torn Achilles. Brooks has bounced back in a big way as PFF’s #1 ranked OL in 2019, and the Eagles rewarded his comeback season with a sizable contract extension.
UPDATE: Philadelphia Eagles have extended RG Brandon Brooks (PFF’s #1 ranked OL in 2019) to a 4y/$53M deal through the 2024 season https://t.co/YJ1hMhBhfI

Jadeveon Clowney made the biggest impact on the defensive side of the ball in Monday night’s Game of the Year contender. Clowney made SF’s OL look lackluster as he got in Jimmy G’s face all night. Seattle’s major offseason acquisitions paid dividends in their biggest game of the season thus far.
#PlayerOfTheDay Jadeveon Clowney had his best game w/ SEA, consistently pressuring Jimmy G all game. He stuffed the stat sheet (1 SK, 1 FF, 1 FR-TD, 5 QBH, 5 TKL, & 10 pressures) and made more plays that didn’t show up in the box score. He’s the only DE w/ multiple TD in 2019 https://t.co/z1Ax0FauIH

Cornerback Mike Hilton laughed today when he heard Bud Dupree said he’d give four draft picks to get Minkah.
Four picks might be a little steep, Hilton said, but he’s definitely worth 2-3.
