LaMelo Ball reminded everyone exactly who he is Friday night, dropping twenty-four points and seven assists as the Minnesota Timberwolves dismantled the Los Angeles Clippers one hundred twenty-seven to one hundred one. Minnesota pulled away convincingly, and the Clippers' slide continues to get uglier by the game.
Meanwhile in Orlando, the Magic came out with something to prove after a lopsided earlier loss to Toronto, and Desmond Bane and Franz Wagner delivered. Bane finished with twenty-eight points, Wagner added twenty-six and eleven assists, and the Magic walked out of that one with a one hundred twenty-one to one hundred fourteen statement win. That's a team that knows how to respond.
And in the boxing world, Denzel Bentley's WBO middleweight title reign is finished at just one hundred two days, and he never even threw a punch to defend it. The WBO stripped Bentley after he was passed over for a mandatory defense following Zuffa Boxing's involvement with the division. A title earned in April, gone before autumn ends.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
