Oh man, that's amazing news!

yeah good stuff

She was as much a hostage as any captive of ISIS.

that's awesome, glad they could finally get her home.

in other news, the timberwolves just brought up someone called Matt Ryan and everyone on twitter is making QB jokes. looks like he was on the lakers for a minute?

he hit a very wild buzzer beater this season which will probably be the highlight of his life

These Spurs fans wore "Tank 4 No. 1 Wembanyama" jerseys at a recent game in San Antonio 😂

The Spurs have lost 11 straight games entering tonight.

spurs know when to tank and when not to tank

its fundamental

i remain steadfast in my belief that every team should be tanking

if you win it's really a loss if you think about it

fun nuggets vs blazers game with some big shotmaking at the end of the game

Damn sad I missed that game, 15 lead changes in the 4th, incl 5 in the final 45 seconds! Wonder how common that is.

I also love this - Joker just moving the pieces around to where he needs em to be

Jokic calls for defensive three seconds on Nurk, gets him out of paint, goes to work.https://t.co/lvI3b5u0sd pic.twitter.com/tCZu9FdN1k

lol nurk got worked

dats the mvp baby

i just know the jazz are gonna destroy the timberwolves tonight and i can't take it

messssssy ending in philly

davis and reaves go 3/5 on free throws, 5/5 has them winning the game by 2

lmao philly really attempted an epic collapse but the lakers couldnt hit their fts

reaves is 92% on the year and davis has been 12/12 in the game prior to those last two, you can't make this stuff up

lakers 10-1 run last 34 secs

pretty disappointed ad didnt ice there tbh you dont get to see shit like that every day

the thybulle 3-shot foul on reaves was unconscionable, just fucking hacked his forearm

he was trying to foul up 3 but forgot not to do it while reeves was shooting a 3

yup slight minor detail there

Luka gonna have to score 70 tonight

Absolute hero lol

LMAO ZION DOES NOT CARE

Screw the unwritten rules. This guy is a blast pic.twitter.com/8BXXz7qfXK

pels #1 in the west, this feels like a thing

it's a very odd team but the west is a mess so yeah why not

holy shit that dunk

it was playing to the home crowd, who ate it up. and why not?

Bucks only down by 2 despite Giannis having a weird off night

It caused old b***h cp to come out lollll suns so lame sometimes

The Suns didn't appreciate this from Zion.

Rematch on Sunday. pic.twitter.com/1BK8w670mz

oh give me a break you can do that at home

Heel v heel

Jose Alvarado won’t refer to Chris Paul by name.

Asked him if it meant more to fight through the rib contusion this game.

“If that person was playing, I’m playing.”

Said he wasn’t going to miss this game.

— Andrew Lopez (@_Andrew_Lopez) December 10, 2022

let chris paul fight zion

hmmm this game just got good

Mavs missed their last 6 FTs and lost by 1 lmao

10-24 from the line! wtf

.730 on the season, Wilt's Warriors shot .640 so I guess they're not historically bad, but...

i don’t understand why luka is a low 70s guy from the line, he should really be a bit better than that

yeah doesnt make sense, his mediocre 3pt% stands to reason since he takes such tough shots but free throws are generally wide open attempts
