Tonight in Washington, Jayson Tatum made his 200th 3 of the season. He’s the 4th Celtic to ever do it, and the only one to do it three times.
With 15 games left, he’s 41 shy of the franchise record set by new Phoenix Sun Isaiah Thomas. pic.twitter.com/7JrsN7b0qI8:21 PM

On these videos, I’m asking 3-4 questions at times.

Kings have the 6th seed by .002 percent in the standings, but its essentially a three-way tie between the Kings, Mavs & Suns for 6, 7 & 8.

Vogel talked before the game about how he’s looking at a lineup with Gordon, O’Neale and Bol.
Gordon is the first to check in of those three. #Suns down 29-26 at Lillard is being highly aggressive. Has nine points on seven FGAs. #Bucks1:29 PM

Another tough up-and-under finish by Damian Lillard. This time, he finished with his left as he ducked a challenge at the rim.
Lillard has nine points and four assists thus far and the Bucks lead, 29-26, with 3:24 left in the first quarter. – 1:28 PM

Sharp shot-making from the Bucks has neutralized a really good offensive start from the Suns. Phoenix will like the shot quality difference so far. – 1:26 PM

That’s a crazy up-and-under finish by Damian Lillard. Lillard, Khris Middleton and Brook Lopez all have five points each for the Bucks thus far.
But the Suns lead, 20-18, with 6:25 left in the first quarter. – 1:21 PM

@Jumpshot8 tells @GeraldBlss that the Bucks need to find offense somewhere else, or they’ll be an early out in the playoffs.

A welcome sight for the #Bucks – Khris Middleton back warming up before a game.
⛑️Giannis Antetokounmpo (questionable) is also warming up & Malik Beasley (questionable) just finished his routine.
