When the NBA made the schedule, they probably had a much different game in mind than the one that played out on Saturday. On one side, Luka Dončić was out after a recent hamstring injury while, on the other side, Steph Curry and Jimmy Butler both were out. That left Austin Reaves, who was still […]
