Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO.

No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.

Karl-Anthony Towns suffered a knee injury with 96 seconds left in Saturday’s game against the Bulls and is questionable for Monday’s game against the Magic. The Knicks center went up for a dunk but […]
