So this is now, officially, real. It is a labor of love for hoops, edited w/ @johnhollinger. The great @ShotDrJr did the thing, combing through each of the 100 essays from our incredible NBA staff at @TheAthletic. Pre-orders available now; drops 11/26. Humbly, it's a good read.
PMers: With Ernie Johnson conducting, “Inside the NBA” changed what a sports studio show could be. Johnson said Wednesday that this will be his last year hosting the show, after 37 years. He’s the best to ever do it. Free to read, in @TheAthletic:

Cavaliers rally to beat the Wizards, 121-111, in AJ Dybantsa's NBA debut. He played 27 minutes, scored 19 points on 8 of 12 shooting from the floor, 1 of 3 on threes, 2 of 2 from the line, 2 rebounds. Did not ever appear sped up, got to his spots easily. A very promising Game 1.
The greatest studio host, bar none, of any sports show. Godspeed to the Goat, who is a better person than he is a host. It was an honor to work with you, EJ.
AJ Dybantsa hits the court tonight. Our @JoshuaBRobbins is on it from Cleveland, in @TheAthletic (free to read):

NBA veteran Malik Beasley has agreed to plead guilty to federal charges stemming from a Department of Justice investigation into illegal sports gambling in NBA. He will be 2nd active NBA player to plead guilty to charges resulting from that investigation. nytimes.com/athletic/7730332…
Chase Young is having a terrific season in New Orleans. Didn't work out in D.C., obviously, but he's resurrected his career with the Saints. Good for him.
I beat the Chuckster! 6/6
