Dream debuts today for Daniel Gafford and PJ Washington. Gafford w/ 19 pts and 9 rebs and some electrifying dunks and exciting hustle plays. PJ Washington w/ 14 pts and 5 rebs, displaying the offensive skill and versatility that should be a boost to the team. You love to see it! – 6:20 PM

Bobby Manning @RealBobManning
Final word on the Trade Deadline with @NoaDalzellNBA after an ugly #Celtics win over the #Wizards. Plus, our level of belief in the bench @CelticsCLNS youtube.com/live/FwIYIpZeR… – 5:45 PM

Noah Levick @NoahLevick
Nick Nurse indicated Kenneth Lofton Jr. will get a chance to play rotation minutes tonight with Mo Bamba (right knee soreness) out.
Nurse said they’ll plan to give Lofton short stints, see how it goes. – 5:42 PM

Eddie Sefko @ESefko
First impressions? They could not have been better for Gafford, Washington in Mavericks’ romp over OKC.

Tyrese Maxey is available tonight, per Sixers official. – 5:32 PM

Ky Carlin @Ky_Carlin
Tyrese Maxey is available #Sixers – 5:31 PM

Tim MacMahon @espn_macmahon
Mavs completely dominated Thunder this afternoon. Daniel Gafford (19 points, 9 rebounds) and PJ Washington (14 points, 5 rebounds) made big impacts off the bench in their Dallas debuts. – 5:14 PM

Clemente Almanza @CAlmanza1007
Mavs aren’t missing. Washington hits a floater as Dallas is shooting 60% from the field and 40% from 3. OKC calls a timeout with 3:39 left in the 3Q as it trails 100-83 – 4:47 PM

Keith Pompey @PompeyOnSixers
Sixers PG Tyrese Maxey is still listed as probable for tonight’s game vs the Washington Wizards in DC. However, Mo Bamba (right knee soreness), Joel Embiid (left meniscus procedure), Nico Batum (strained left hamstring), Robert Covington (left knee bone bruise) and De’Anthony… – 3:47 PM

Will Guillory @WillGuillory
Gafford and PJ Washington are the perfect kind of players to put around Luka. – 3:45 PM

Brad Townsend @townbrad
Now an alley-oop for Washington. These guys are already loving playing with Doncic — and the other way around. – 3:33 PM

Ky Carlin @Ky_Carlin
Mo Bamba is out tonight in Washington, but he has been fighting through his own pain as of late in order to help while Joel Embiid is out #Sixers sixerswire.usatoday.com/2024/02/10/mo-… via @SixersWire – 3:26 PM

Eddie Sefko @ESefko
Washington and Gafford checking into the game with 5:23 to go in the first quarter. – 3:24 PM

Ky Carlin @Ky_Carlin
Tobias Harris gives his thoughts on Jaden Springer being traded #Sixers sixerswire.usatoday.com/2024/02/10/tob… via @SixersWire – 3:14 PM

Dave Early @DavidEarly
“Sending Springer to the Celtics certainly won’t have the same impact Jayson Tatum did, but….Bucks getting a “Pat Bev game” during their playoff run or Springer shutting down Maxey in a key spot in a series would only rub salt in the wound.”
great stuff from @JGrieb10 analyzing… – 3:12 PM

. @PaulHudrick crushed this bell ringer poll describing how Payne and Buddy Hield looked in their Sixers debut and Oubre Jr. filled it up as well despite another loss.

After Daryl Morey addressed media after acquiring Buddy Hield and Cam Payne I wrote how the Sixers are hedging their bets in order to try to win a championship… next season.
