Our little pickup basketball community lost a wonderful man this week and it’s still hard to process. Cavione was the guy who for so many years was the voice of reason amid dumb arguments, and the guy who made people laugh when they were about to blow up. We are heartbroken. gofund.me/cb5af14b

"We never hung our heads," Julian Champagnie said. "We came out and hooped every game." That included the season finale. Fittingly, the Spurs overcame a 22-point deficit to down the Raptors 125-1128 in the season finale Sunday at the Frost Bank Center. www.expressnews.com/sports/spurs...

Jeremy Sochan on Chris Paul playing in all 82 games: "He could be in flipping, I don't know, Hawaii, doing nothing. And he's here in San Antonio, Texas, busting his ass 82 fucking games, just doing his thing. And I think that's what I've noticed, just the passion that he has."

Chris Paul on playing 34 minutes at age 39 in his 82nd game of the season: "I wanted to hoop. One of the guys on the bench asked me in the fourth quarter, 'Why are you in there playing?' I said, it's a long summer when you don't make the playoffs. Like what else I got to do?"

Fox says he should be cleared to play in eight weeks, but that he will start doing "basketball stuff" in the next two: "It's definitely progressing, got the stitches out, wounds closing, trying to keep it as straight as possible for the time being.

Wemby on the Spurs' coaching situation: "I trust the organization. I trust Pop to (do) all he can to come back, to get his energy back. And I also trust Mitch to grow into that role. So, I think we are in good hands. We're supporting each other all throughout the organization."

Although he talked about being a "patient," Wemby declined to address whether he had surgery: "There's many more things than surgery when you go to the hospital for a blood clot. So, I'm not going to expand on my medical record, but I definitely did some visits to the hospital..."

Wemby expressed confidence that his future remains extremely bright despite the blood clot that ended his season in February: "I know I'm over with this problem." He also said he has gained some valuable lessons from the experience. "I know in the long run, it's going to be good for me," he said.

Adolf Hitler's “Mein Kampf” is still on U.S. Naval Academy shelves. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” and “Memorializing the Holocaust” are not. An order by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office led to a purge of books that are critical of racism — but preserved volumes defending white power.
