Tuesdays with Gorney: Wild weekend of commits, flips and decommits
Four-star cornerback O'Mari Johnson committed to North Carolina on Sunday.
Nuggets fire head coach Michael Malone and GM Calvin Booth in stunning move
Nuggets fire head coach Michael Malone and GM Calvin Booth in stunning move originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
Another Western Conference playoff contender is making a coaching change.
Just weeks after the Memphis Grizzlies moved on from Taylor Jenkins, the Denver Nuggets are firing Michael Malone.
ESPN’s Shams Charania first reported the news on Tuesday, and later added that general manager Calvin Booth has also been fired. Assistant coach David Adelman, who has worked for Malone since 2017, will serve as the interim head coach. The team later confirmed Charnaia’s reports in a press release.
Malone led the Nuggets to their only championship less than two years ago in 2023. He had been Denver’s head coach since 2015, compiling a 471-327 record with 44 playoff wins over that span.
Booth took over as Nuggets general manager in 2022 when Tim Connelly left for the Minnesota Timberwolves. Despite Booth winning the title in his first season at the helm, many of the roster moves that set up the victory were made by Connelly.
This season has started to unravel for the Nuggets in recent weeks, with the team going 3-7 in their last 10 games. Denver has lost four straight games to fall to 47-32, good for fourth in the West — but tied with the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth seeds in the loss column.
Three-time MVP Nikola Jokic has never played for another coach since being drafted, his rookie season was Malone’s first in Denver.
The Nuggets have three games left in the regular season — Wednesday at the Sacramento Kings, Friday against the Grizzlies and Sunday at the Houston Rockets.

Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) is leaning towards Warriors -9…
Thomas: “ A nine-point spread seems kind of big, doesn’t it? That logic comes from a clouded expectation of a team's reputation over their on-the-court performance. The Suns have been bad, and are still without Kevin Durant.
The Sun's offense has been their weakness this season. With how well the Warriors have been defensively, it’s hard to imagine the Suns can remain competitive for four quarters.”

Why Steph vs. Booker matchup is key to Warriors-Suns outcome
Why Steph vs. Booker matchup is key to Warriors-Suns outcome originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
Stephen Curry yearns for a comeback game to lift the Warriors to victory.
Devin Booker needs a comeback season to return the Phoenix Suns to relevance.
The high-scoring guards share the spotlight Tuesday night in a game featuring two teams with opposite goals. The Warriors (46-32) desperately want to avoid the Western Conference play-in tournament, while the Suns (35-43) are hoping, against odds, a strong final week will put them in the play-in.
Coverage on NBC Sports Bay Area begins with Warriors Pregame Live at 6 p.m., with tipoff from PHX Arena scheduled for 7.
The Warriors are locked in a furious five-team battle for the final three spots to finish among the top six teams in the West and earn a guaranteed playoff berth. A loss to Houston on Sunday dropped them from fifth place to sixth. If they finish any lower, they’re in the play-in.
Curry managed only three points against a physically hyperactive Rockets defense, led by rangy Amen Thompson, designed to limit his production. He shot 1-of-10 from the field, including 1-of-8 from distance, and never got to the foul line. It was the first time this season that Curry played at least 25 minutes and failed to score in double digits.
It was a steep drop for Curry, who scored 125 points (41.7 per game) over the previous three games, all victories against opponents above them in the standings. He’ll be facing a much lesser defense than fourth-ranked Houston, as the Suns are 27th in defense.
Booker, Curry’s teammate on Team USA’s gold-medal-winning 2024 Olympics team in Paris, has been productive, averaging 25.9 points per game, but his efficiency is slightly below his career averages.
Projected to be among the top four teams in the West, the presence of Booker and fellow stars Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal has not been enough to prevent the Suns – who have the highest payroll in the NBA – from being the league’s most disappointing team. They sit in 11th place in the West.
Since winning eight of their first nine games under new coach Mike Budenholzer, the Suns are 15 games under .500. They have lost six in a row, the last three without Durant, whose sprained left ankle will keep him from facing his former Golden State teammates.
Changes are coming to Phoenix this summer. Budenholzer likely will be sacked and all signs point to Durant landing on another roster.
The Warriors will try to exploit a reeling opponent while also getting Curry back on track.
Lakers vs. Thunder Predictions: Odds, recent stats, trends and, best bets for April 8
Los Angeles Lakers vs. Oklahoma City Thunder Preview
The Los Angeles Lakers (48-30) and Oklahoma City Thunder (64-14) are all set to square off from Paycom Center in Oklahoma City.
They played against each other two nights ago, and the Lakers won 126-99. That loss to the Lakers was the second straight loss for the Thunder.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was held to 26 points, and Jalen Williams was the Thunder’s second highest scorer with 16.
This was the first time since mid-December where the Thunder were held to less than 100 points.
The Lakers are currently 18-20 on the road with a point differential of 1, while the Thunder have a 8-2 record in their last ten games at home.

Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) is leaning towards Shai Gilegous-Alexander over 31.5 points…
Thomas: “The Lakers made a massive statement in the last game against the Thunder. Not only beating them by 30 points, but by holding them to under 100 points. I expect a massive rebound from the Thunder tonight.
SGA will likely spearhead that rebound. He scored 26 points without a single trip to the free throw line. A lot of SGA’s domination comes from the charity stripe. If he wants his team to overcome this mini-skid, I expect him to give maximum effort.”
