– News broke yesterday that Celtics GM Danny Ainge had a mild heart attack, but should be fine and is recovering nicely. It would be bad form to make a joke about how it was the news that Doc Rivers shut down Kevin Garnett that caused Ainge’s heart attack, so I won’t go there.
– Stan Van Gundy says that injured starters Hedo Turkoglu and Rashard Lewis may return for the Magic’s first game against Philadelphia on Sunday.
– Notre Dame’s Luke Harangody and Saint Mary’s Patty Mills plan to make themselves eligible for the NBA Draft, but neither player is going to hire an agent to allow for a return to school if they so choose. Arizona’s Nic Wise seems to be looking purely for feedback.
– Unrestricted free agent Shawn Marion is keeping his options open, and one choice is to return to the Raptors, but the Toronto press isn’t optimistic.
