    Any word on the San Marino HC job? I heard it opened up again?
    From T. Peterson: I was told they just started the HC search last week.

    Can’t say what the re-evaluation will be on Lonzo Ball, but my original evaluation is that he was a wasted #2 pick. I’d urge the team to trade him quick, but since Magic is doing these deals, we’d probably wind-up with somebody worse.
