The Warriors have multiple roster spots open that they must fill. Thinking is they will sign some players to 10 day contracts. Yuri may be one of them.

You can touch the line. That is the correct ruling.
Problem is from my vantage point in 213 his left foot went over the line onto the court and he still had contact with the ball when his right foot came down clearly on the court.
All the replay camera angles are from the wrong side. If you were sitting behind the billiken bench it was clearly a violation. Both feet were inbounds while still in contact with the ball.

Why didn't we foul on the last play? Why didn't we foul before the inbound?
-
At this point the coaching staff is not expecting any more players leaving.

Goodwin may have earned a guaranteed contract tonight.
17 points, 8-11 shooting, 8 boards, 2 steals, so active defensively.

Thanks for compiling this.
Look for the staff to add at least two more HS recruits, they are looking at one top 100 that may be in reach with our recent upgrade in NIL money. We will need a transfer or two to round out the roster but all indications are Schertz and staff are valuing HS recruiting going forward. Expect all 3 our incoming freshman to be able to compete for a starting nod next season.

Stu posted an article on Goodwin joining the Lakers. If you subscribe, don't miss it. If you don't subscribe, your loss. Stu stated the Lakers are looking at Goodwin largely for his on-ball defense. In the G League, he averaged 14.6 pg, 5.9 rpg and 3.3 apg. He hit 30% from the 3.
The Lakers can have Goodwin on the Active Game Day Roster for all remaining games. The limit for a 2 way player is 50 and they 33 left. He is reportedly on the books for $212,000 for the rest of the season.
This isn't true. If a player is signed to 2 way contract after the season starts his eligibility is pro rated based on the games left in the season. The formula used to determine this is divide the remaining games left when the player is signed by the total games in the season and multiply that by 50. Round to the nearest number. After today's game Goodwin is only eligible to play in 19 of the remaining Lakers games.

Breaking news
The Mark Williams for Dalton Knecht/Cam Reddish has been voided by the NBA.
The Lakers do not have an open roster spot anymore and their center situation is in flux. Goodwin's chances of being on a roster deal have dropped precipitously.

Goodwin played in 17 games, starting 9 for the South Bay Lakers. He averaged 14 points, 6 boards, 3 assists, and 2 steals while shooting 42% from the field and 31% from 3.
Goodwin is eligible to play in up 19 games with the Lakers the rest of the season if he remains on his current 2 way deal. He will not be eligible for the playoffs unless he signs a regular roster deal.
Goodwin, with being on an active roster in his 4th season, has added to his possible NBA pension. As a 4 year player he will get over 70k per year if he retires at the age of 62 from the NBA pension fund. His NBA pension has been vested since he appeared in games his 3rd season last year.
The Lakers do have one roster spot remaining and have made it clear they are looking to fill it with a shooting guard. Conceivably, Goodwin is in the conversation to win this roster spot. The Lakers have also been rumored to add Lonnie Walker, Seth Curry, Jaden Springer, Josh Richardson, or Seth Curry to round out their roster.

Per Shams the Lakers have signed Goodwin to a two way contract.

That tweet is vague and encompasses so many possible scenarios so any recruit could be that "one" that it makes me think that Courtside has taken over the Women's soccer twitter account. I guess DM and he will get more specific.

Each conference outside of the Big 5 should cede their conference tournament to anyone but the conference champion to grab more bids.

I agree with that. OSU got hammered by its former conference partners through no fault of their own.
I mean OSU had the worst athletics in the conference historically. That is their fault.
How long till Dr Feser has an account at Billikens.com?

Goodwin was able to make his season debut on Friday. 16 points on 4-9 from 3, 3 boards, and 2 steals in 15 minutes off the bench. His minutes will be limited for a couple more games and then he should be getting much more time.

36.3% career three point shooter. We don't have many of those.
Hughes II is currently SLU's 20th best Career 3 Point Shooter (150 attempts). This is a significant loss.
Best wishes wherever you go.
So silly.
His minutes have gone down despite all the injury issues.
It is a loss, but not significant.

One of these years this program is going to break through and make a final four. Thought we would be getting more respect from the Tournament committee by this time. We were much better than an 8 seed. Eventually we will get that respect and we will make a breakthrough final four appearance.

We aren't going to win games against good teams without multiple starters. Even with Avila we have obvious holes, suspect defense, rebounding, and no rim protection. Avila's offense can cover us from some of these. Without him we just aren't that good. We have Swope and Anya playing out of position. At this point get Avila healthy and hope to make an A10 tourney run. We aren't going to get big wins without him.

Dotzler appears out for this game and beyond.

Kennedy's 38-38 for the season is only 22 away from the record for most consecutive FTs in a season.

Jimerson is at 1892. Claggett is at 1910. If Jimerson continues his hot start he will pass Claggs in the next game.
While Jimerson has played 6 seasons, he is only at 135 games played. Douglas played 128 games, Gray 129, and Bonner 133 to set their records. Jimerson is only slightly ahead in those categories. No need for an asterisk next to Gibson's name.

It helps that the Pacers/Fever play in the 6th smallest arena.
Jordan Goodwin signs 2 way contract with Lakers

There are 540 roster spots in the NBA. These are not the best 540 players in the world.
There are 2-3000 guys playing pro across the globe who if given the opportunity could not only make a roster but could potentially be a rotation player or even star in the NBA.
Getting on an NBA roster is all about timing, and opportunity and potential. Skill frankly doesn't count as much.
Bronny, while talented, had a way better chance at a spot because of his father. Without that last name he wouldn't have entered the draft this year and the chances of him making a roster would be minimal. Just throw him in the pool with all the other guys and he's most likely not getting a serious look.
