For the NBA, it's March 6th. Here's what's happening. Make sure you're subscribed so you never miss an update. Rookie Big Man, Julian Reese, turned heads in his early days with the Washington Wizards. The 6 foot 9 center from the DMB area signed a two-way deal and started all three of his first games. His standout moment came against the Utah Jazz, where he dropped 18 points and grabbed 20 rebounds in 38 minutes. Reese has quickly adapted to the team's system. Building on solid showings in his first two outings, he took it to another level versus Utah. Half of those rebounds came on the offensive end, giving the Wizards extra shots at baskets every time he crashed the glass. Fans and analysts raved about his dominance. He set a Wizards Rookie record with 10 offensive boards. Even as the Jazz doubled down to box him out later, it opened chances for his teammates to clean up on both ends. His efficiency stood out too, shooting five for seven from the field, and perfect eight

for eight at the line with two assists. That deep impact went beyond the box score, sparking fast breaks and second chances. Now questions swirl about his future. The Wizards' young core is already deep, but Reese has made a strong case to move off the two-way contract. He's proven he's NBA ready, boosting his value for whatever comes next.
