The Jazz were previously 0-10 without Lauri Markkanen & were at a rest disadvantage vs. the Wolves last night.

That's a bruuuutal loss for Minnesota.

Whoa. The Finals schedule has been changed.

Start on a Wednesday (June 3).

Only 1 day between Games 1 & 2.

No Sunday games at all.

Sensabaugh's 21 first-quarter points are the most for any bench player in the 1st quarter in the 30 seasons for which we have play-by-play data (hat tip to the Bulls broadcast).

Tops Lance Stephenson's 20 vs. BKN on 1/5/22.
Brice Sensabaugh just scored 21 points in 7:14 in the first quarter.

Capped it off with this bucket, which made me cackle.

Make it 34. Wolves just trailed 16-0 vs. the Spurs.
In the 30 seasons of play-by-play data, there have been only 33 games where a team trailed by more than 15 points before scoring.

The 2025-26 Jazz have 3 of those games! No other team has had more than 1 in the same season.
