At which point it became clear that Moose_NBA, Twitter's Malik Beasley Profit was more than just Facebook friends with alleged Jontay Porter co-conspirator Ammar Awawdeh. Moose was his relative, his cousin. This is where it takes us back now to the legal documents as we try to connect all the dots here. Right. So, generally observing the following in the Jontay Porter legal documents, quote, "A relative of the defendant, Ammar Awawdeh, whose identity is known to me, placed a $10,000 parlay bet through betting company one on the under for player 1's three-pointers, assists, and steals." It goes on to talk about how the relative won $85,000, netting a profit of $75,000. And so just saying that Ammar Awawdeh in terms of the information he was sharing, who he was bringing in to the thing he was already caught up in. We don't know which family member it is. They're anonymous according to federal prosecutors, but family is literally mentioned in the federal investigation a number of times.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr sent a message to Kevon Looney via the team’s 'X' account, expressing his gratitude to the big man after the center’s signing with the New Orleans Pelicans became official. “Just want to say thank you,” Kerr started as he stood in front of greenery recording his farewell message to Looney. “This is a tough one. Ten years, it’s just been an amazing experience for me to coach you. “Just your professionalism, your dignity, your class, the way you handled yourself, the way you mentor your young teammates and, of course, the championship contributions you made year after year.”

Andrew, would you want to be a head coach of an NBA team? And then the connected question is: would Pro be hired to your staff? Andrew Bogut: Uh, look, I'd never say never. Right now—no. I don't think, you know, I don't need the money, so that's definitely not a motivator for me. I'd love to one day coach our national team at an Olympics or international tournament type stuff. I think just coaching in the NBL appeals to me right now from a family situation. We play 28 games a season; the season runs from September to March. So going in as an assistant to hopefully one day become a head coach is a goal. Like, any assistant that says they don't want to be a head coach, I think is lying to you. I think everyone wants to eventually be a head coach if you're an assistant. As far as the NBA goes, like I said, you never know what happens down the track. But I just—I can't—I don't do well with the fakeness bullsh*t. People say it's much more relationship-based than X's and O's these days. I disagree with that. I think it's more overly fake relationship-based than X's and O's these days. You gotta kind of—as a coach—you know, Pro always makes the jokes around: You gotta know all the language of what the cool young kids are talking these days. And there's nothing more cringeworthy than seeing a 40- or 45-year-old white guy with his hat on backward, trying to relate and be hipsterish or fashiony or whatever it is—whatever the [ __ ] catch-cry is for that year. Can't do it.
