Romney Taunts Westbrook, Rockets Record 50 Points, News Anchor Steals From Warriors, 49ers May Let Foster Go

BASKETBALL

The best part of Monday night’s Utah Jazz 113-96 rout of Oklahoma City Thunder was seeing former Presidential candidate and current Senatorial candidate Mitt Romney taunting Russell Westbrook for his four first half fouls. The Thunder is now down 1-3 in the series.

James Harden and Chris Paul combined to help the Houston Rockets score a franchise playoff record 50 points in the 3rd quarter against the Minnesota Timberwolves to propel the Rockets to a 119-100 win. Houston is now up 3-1 in the series.  The only other team to score more points in a quarter was in 1962 when the Los Angeles Lakers scored 51 points in a loss to the Detroit Pistons.

A news anchor who covers the Golden State Warriors, Mike Shumann, has been suspended for stealing a jacket from the director of Warriors’ security. The incident occured at the AT&T center and was caught on video. Shumann, was a former receiver for the San Francisco 49ers.

FOOTBALL

With the NFL draft later this week, the 49ers may be looking to fill a spot at linebacker if Reuben Foster is found guilty of domestic abuse. Foster has been charged with three felonies from an incident in February where he’s accused of rupturing the eardrum of his girlfriend. 49ers general manager, John Lynch, said, “We want to be abundantly clear that if Reuben did in fact hit this young lady, he will not be part of the team.” The NFL has been under intense scrutiny over the last few years for how they’ve dealt with domestic abuse so stay tuned for what happens in this case.
