NBA Playoff Update:
The Denver Nuggets took a 3-2 series lead over the Phoenix Suns. Before the game, Nikola Jokic shook Suns owner Mat Ishbia’s hand in an attempt to put the “shove/flop” incident behind them. Game 6 is Thursday at 10:00 pm ET
The Philadelphia 76ers defeated the Boston Celtics in Game 5 to take a 3-2 lead. Joel Embiid led the team with 33 points, James Harden added 17, but Tyrese Maxey’s 30 points and seven rebounds seemed to make the difference. Game 6 is Thursday at 7:30 pm ET.
Just days after making headlines by getting a commitment from Bronny James (LeBron’s son), USC landed another superstar. DJ Rodman, son of NBA Hall-of-Famer Dennis Rodman, will transfer from Washington State to play with the Trojans.
