For the NBA, it's March 2nd. Here's what's happening. Make sure you're subscribed so you never miss an update. James Hardin made a strong return to the Cleveland Cavaliers lineup on Sunday, scoring a team high 22 points in 36 minutes during a A-106-102 comeback when over his former team, the Brooklyn Nets. He had missed the previous two games with a fractured right thumb, but plans to play through the injury going forward. Hardin shot efficiently from the field at 5 for 9, including 4 for 7 from 3 point range and went 10 for 12 at the free throw. Blime, he also dished out a team high atasis and grabbed 9 rebounds despite committing 5 turnovers. At age 36, Hardin has bounced between teams lately, now on his 4th franchise in 5 seasons, which has fans pondering his future. He openly discussed retirement after the game, saying it is coming soon, but he hopes to delay it by staying in shape and performing well, taking it, one game at a time.

The Cavaliers are now 7 in 1 with Hardin in the lineup, sitting at 38 wins and 24 losses, good for 4th in the eastern, conference. They trail the 3rd place nicks and 2nd place Celtics, but remain close enough to make a move. With Hardin pairing alongside Donovan Mitchell in the back court and the front court duo of Evan Mobley and Jared Allen, Cleveland boasts one of the Lee's top starting groups. Everyone hopes his thumb holds up as the playoffs approach in a few weeks, potentially boosting his Hall of Fame case. This episode is brought to you by our sponsor, see the episode description.
