The deal was done, the photoshops were executed, but ultimately, the deal involving trading Kristaps Porzingis, Malcolm Brogdon, role players and picks between the Celtics, Wizards, and LA fell through.
But low and behold, the Memphis Grizzlies swooped in late last night to push the deal across the finish line. Here are the details involving the successful three team trade:

Replacing the role of Brogdon is Marcus Smart who, just yesterday, was lauded by the Celtics’ Twitter account for his hustle and effort he gives on the court. The NBA is a business, and the Celtics had to make a business decision.
With the NBA Draft tonight and the NBA offseason among us, its one of the most wonderful times of the year for pro basketball fans. Enjoy the ride, and hopefully, your team doesn’t make many rash decisions.

This caption hit the nail right on the head. It’s like they knew Snagged Sports was going to pick it up! On another note, the fact that Tom Kim is only 21 years old should be a scary realization to all PGA Tour pros.

Ahead of his NBA Draft appearance, top 3 projected pick Brandon Miller gave one of the takes for the ages regarding who is the GOAT. His answer: not Michael Jordan, not Lebron, heck, not even Kobe or Shaq or Dirk, but PAUL GEORGE. I bet if you asked Paul George himself who the greatest NBA player of all-time is, he wouldn’t put himself in the top 25 players. He didn’t even make the NBA’s 75th anniversary team!
C’mon man, you have to do better than that. The world is watching your every move, and this will certainly stay with Miller for quite some time. It’s an all-time bad take and one he will likely not live down.

About last night...
For bankroll purposes, I’m having to really cutback on my gambling until football season. Bankroll management is an important part of gambling; we mustn’t forget! All that to be said: of course I go 3 for 3 right when I decide to take a break. Surely I’ll stay hot while I’m not being financially compensated, but hopefully, the readers will be.
⚾️ MLB: Rays -1.5 vs. Royals / O 7.5 runs
This is your classic ‘don’t over think it’ play, and my goodness this should be a slaughter. The Rays have their ace in the mound. The Royals absolutely suck. Give me the runs or give me death!
⚾️ MLB: Miami vs. Pirates U 7.5 runs
The Pirates look to be back on their awful streak of baseball, and the Marlins are either on or off. Both teams combine for 74-67-5 on unders this season. I’ll play the number and hope it works out this time.
