Texas A&M coach Buzz Williams leaving for Maryland
Five players suspended, Isaiah Stewart for two games, for roles in Pistons, Timberwolves altercation
The NBA handed down suspensions for the altercation between the Timberwolves and Pistons. While not light, the punishments for an incident that spilled into the crowd could have been much worse.
Pistons big man Isaiah Stewart was suspended two games without pay "for escalating an on-court altercation. The longer suspension for Stewart is partly due to "his repeated history of unsportsmanlike acts," the league said.
Detroit's Ron Holland II and Marcus Sasser, as well as Minnesota's Naz Reid and Donte DiVincenzo, were each suspended one game without pay for their roles in the altercation. Reid and DiVincenzo will serve their suspensions Tuesday night, leaving the Timberwolves shorthanded against the Denver Nuggets. The three Pistons players will be out Wednesday night when Detroit faces Oklahoma City.
Tensions had been building between the Pistons and Timberwolves — with DiVincenzo and Rudy Gobert having words with Stewart — but things escalated in the second quarter when Ried drove the lane and was fouled by Holland. Reid confronted Holland and pointed at him, DiVincenzo stepped in to support Reid and suddenly it was on — and spilling into the first row.
Wow I don't think I've ever seen before. Officials just ejected 5 players and 2 coaches for this altercation.
— Tomer Azarly (@TomerAzarly) March 31, 2025
Naz Reid, Donte DiVincenzo, Ron Holland, Isaiah Stewart, and Marcus Sasser all ejected.
Pablo Prigioni and JB Bickerstaff were ejected as well.pic.twitter.com/ZPofrWfopG
After a review, the five now suspended players, as well as Pistons coach J.B. Bickerstaff and Timberwolves assistant coach Pablo Prigioni were all ejected.

Houston defense thrives on bringing out the ugly during latest March Madness run
It's why they're now considered one of the country's most successful, consistent teams annually — and why they're one of four teams still playing Saturday in March Madness. “That’s what we do,” Midwest Region Most Outstanding Player Emanuel Sharp said after Sunday's 69-50 win over Tennessee. The Cougars (34-4) certainly haven't lost much this season.

‘Celtics City' beyond the episode: C's-Lakers rivalry reaches its peak
‘Celtics City' beyond the episode: C's-Lakers rivalry reaches its peak originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
The Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers play in opposite conferences on opposite sides of the country. So, why is Celtics-Lakers considered one of the best rivalries in sports?
Episode 5 of Max’s “Celtics City” docuseries provides plenty of evidence.
Titled, “F**k the Celtics,” this episode documents of the height of the C’s-Lakers rivalry during the 1980s, when both teams were vying for NBA supremacy. The two teams combined to win eight championships during that 10-year span (Boston in 1981, 1984 and 1986; Los Angeles in 1980, 1982, 1985, 1987 and 1988), with only the 1983 Philadelphia 76ers and the 1989 Detroit Pistons breaking up the back-and-forth.
The Celtics and Lakers went head-to-head in the NBA Finals three times during the decade, with the C’s winning in 1984 and the Lakers prevailing in 1985 and 1987.
More Celtics City ‘Beyond the Episode’
- Episode 1: “Founding Fathers”
- Episode 2: “No Final Victories”
- Episode 3: “All Swept Up”
- Episode 4: “Great Hope. Period.”
While Larry Bird and Magic Johnson were the stars of the rivalry, the competitive fire between Boston and Los Angeles went well beyond the former college nemeses.
“I thought the star of this episode in a lot of ways was (Lakers forward James) Worthy. ‘F— the Celtics,’ he’s the one who said that,” longtime NBA reporter Jackie MacMullan said on NBC Sports Boston’s Keys to the City show recapping Episode 5, as seen in the video player above.
“His perspective is so interesting, because we get so caught up in Magic and Larry, and you know, there were a lot of other big players.”
“I liked the tension that you could see in this episode between the Celtics and Lakers, which we know existed, because we covered them — we saw it with our own two eyes,” MacMullan added.
“Watching them reflect back on the animosity — it was very real.”

Relive Johnny Most’s call of Gerald Henderson’s steal at the end of regulation in Game 2 of the 1984 NBA Finals. Henderson’s heroics helped force overtime, where the Celtics emerged with a 124-121 win.
Cedric Maxwell reflects on his famous, “Get on my back, boys!” quote before Game 7 of the 1984 Finals. Maxwell scored 24 points to lead the Celtics to victory and earned NBA Finals MVP honors.
From NBC Sports Boston’s documentary “The ’86 Celtics,” we go behind why the Celtics traded Finals MVP Cedric Maxwell for oft-injured big man Bill Walton prior to the 1985-86 season.
We went deep into the archives for this one: An original rap song celebrating the 1986 NBA champion Celtics, featuring lyrics about key players on the roster.
Trae Young is named assistant general manager for Oklahoma men’s basketball
NORMAN, Okla. — Oklahoma has hired former Sooners player and Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young as assistant general manager for men’s basketball.
He also has pledged to donate $1 million to the program, the school announced.
Young, a four-time NBA All-Star, was an All-American for Oklahoma in 2017-18, his only season with the Sooners. He became the first player in NCAA Division I history to lead the nation in points per game (27.4) and assists per game (8.7). He was drafted No. 5 overall.
The 26-year-old Norman North High School graduate for years has worn his love for the city on his sleeve.
“As someone who grew up in Norman and played at the University of Oklahoma, stepping into the role of assistant GM for OU Basketball is a huge honor,” Young said in a statement. “This program has such a rich history, which I am fortunate to have been and continue to be a part of. In my new role, my focus is on helping contribute to OU’s winning culture, working alongside the coaching staff and front office to bring in the right players to help us compete and succeed at the highest level.”
Young will assist with the evaluation of high school and transfer portal prospects, help negotiate player contracts and guide players in building their brands.
“Trae is a son of Norman, Oklahoma, and he’s given so much to our city and its people,” Oklahoma athletic director Joe Castiglione said. “He has a strong affinity for this place and his commitment to ensuring our community is a thriving one is truly unmatched. He’s also an OU legend who, in his time here and since, continues to achieve excellence both on and off the court.”
Young joins Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry in taking on an administrative role at his alma mater in this new era of college sports. Curry was named assistant GM at Davidson.

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans the Under:
"The Blazers need a win after four straight losses as the offense has declined each game from 116, 111, 107, to 93 points. The Hawks are in better form right now, but the number continues to come down in favor of Portland. I'd rather back the Under in another low-scoring contest between the teams than pick a side in a tossup on a -5.5 to -6.5."

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans the Bulls to cover against the Raptors:
"While Toronto is on a four-game winning streak and Chicago has dropped the past two, this is a spot where I would back the Bulls. Chicago was on a nice 9-2 run over 11 games before losing to the Mavericks and Thunder. However, Toronto's winning streak is not impressive. Toronto beat Washington, Brooklyn, Charlotte, and Philadelphia — those teams rank bottom four in the East and have a combined 83-218 record (27.5%). Chicago beat teams like the Lakers, Nuggets, and Kings during their winning streak. It's Chicago or pass for me even at the -5 or -5.5."

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans the Under between the Suns and Bucks:
"The Bucks dropped four straight games, while the Suns lost three consecutive games. Both offenses have struggled lately. The Suns have failed to crack 110 points in the three losses and the Bucks failed to do so in two of their four losses. Neither team is worth trusting with Kevin Durant and Damian Lillard dealing with injuries. It's Under 223.5 or pass for me.
