After undergoing further evaluation of the non-displaced first costal cartilage fracture he suffered in Game 2, Warriors forward Kevon Looney could potentially return during the NBA Finals, league sources told ESPN. More testing will determine next steps for Looney.

Steve Kerr just told me that he expects Klay Thompson to play in Game 4 on Friday. Kerr said he doesn’t know yet about Kevin Durant’s status for that game.

Just spoke to Nicole Curran, the wife of Warriors owner Joe Lacob, about the “incident “ with Beyoncé last night. She was in tears. Said she had been getting death threats on social media all night this morning she disabled her IG account just to make it stop.

also a silicon valley billionaire got banned, big night at the ballgame for at least a couple different online factions

SCOOP: Mark Stevens, the person who pushed Toronto Raptors player Kyle Lowry at last night's NBA Finals game, is not just any fan, but venture capitalist — and part Warriors owner, multiple sources confirmed to Axios.https://t.co/UL5SqKZc7u

that beyonce thing is so random who cares. the shove was weird for sure. they should buy out his shares.

also tho, there was a game last night and it was a good game! im not sure the raptors could play/shoot better than that. and taht was an all time great curry game he was the most aggressive i think ive ever seen him

yeah he was going for it p cool

felt like kawhi played just ok but then i looked at his box score and i was kinda blown away. hes getting to the line like 13 times per game which is insane

kd's out for g4 and won't scrimmage.

Raps gotta be kicking themselves that they didn't take Game 2. feels like a real toss-up right now though if I had to bet I'd still put my money on GSW if Klay looks right.

probably a bad opinion but I think getting Klay back is more important

either at this point.

a guy who is not steph who can make baskets is a v v important thing

dying at that fake Kawhi dm

klaaaaaay

Klay was asked if we can expect another huge Game 6 from him

His response: "My man, I don't even know what I'm doing for dinner tonight." 😂 pic.twitter.com/2vz3e9bjE2

if thousands of people including kyle lowry paid to watch mark stevens work and at some point stevens jumped into the crowd and was shoved by kyle lowry, kyle lowry would not be arrested

the guy from should def be banned from sitting there but i don't rly get why ppl seem so insistent to compare this to a criminal act

bc we long to see the rich get eaten

hmm jordan shd be arrested too seems like, anti revolutionary activities

my man

no you ppl are the cops! i'm the un-cop one!

looks like weve got some factions on our hands fellas

i don't really want to defend a vc dickhead but that was more like a hand-check than a shove

i mean, it was weird, but hardly worth all this freakout

why are yall looking this gift horse in the mouth, they are penalizing a venture capitalist!!!!!!!!!

it was a deeply violent act felt by all people of conscience and fortune shd be transfered to me immediately

I am not a mind reader and have no idea what was going through Stevens' head at that moment when he decided that shoving Lowry and saying some bullshit to him was something he could do without consequence

That said, I'm certain it was some variation of "I'm gonna throw that boy off his game so my boys can win"

yeah i love the passion but regretfully there must be consequences *wheels out guillotine*

i mostly feel bad for the lady in the crowd who got drilled by lowry

counterpoint: people who can afford courtside seats should get drilled constantly

i shd be awarded a courtside seat for being a nice boy

justice finally

kawhi otm

A couple things from the Kyle Lowry-Mark Stevens incident:
1) not good that the woman next to Stevens was reaching for the loose ball
2) the woman was totally cool with Lowry and patted him on the back
3) absolutely no excuse for Stevens shoving Lowry pic.twitter.com/KQnMpl51JC
