NBA CATch-up - 1/31/22
Good morning, BBN. While many of you were rooting on the Bengals to get into the Super Bowl, quite a few former Wildcats played in NBA games last night. KAT had his second career triple-double for the Timberwolves last night, only the 37th triple-double in franchise history. BJ Boston recorded 19 points in just 22 minutes in the Clippers rout of the Hornets. Plus, Malik Monk and AD combined for 60 points for the Lakers, with Monk scoring a team-high 33 points (including 8 made three-pointers) and adding 10 rebounds, his first double-double with LA (c'mon now Lakers, pay the man).
