Arkansas men’s basketball coach Eric Musselman and his wife, Danyelle Sargent Musselman, did an interview with “The Field of 68” podcast on Friday. Rob Dauster asked Danyelle, “What’s it like being married to him in Fayetteville? I got to imagine — those fans, one, they’re crazy; they’re out of their minds.

The All-Star break was a perfect time to step back and take a deep breath because we have a sprint for the next two months.

Guards Kyrie Irving, BKN at MIL ($39) Irving hasn’t played much recently because of the vaccine issues in… Source link
