JUST AFTER 9 A.M. on Feb. 9, 2023, Mat Ishbia stepped onto a small stage in the first-floor pavilion of the Phoenix Suns' Footprint Center and stared out at hundreds of Suns employees.

Fantasy basketball tips and projections for Wednesday - ESPN
Wednesday features a pair of gems on ESPN, starting with the Oklahoma City Thunder visiting the Boston Celtics at 7:30 p.m. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (quad) and Jalen Williams (ankle) both missed Tuesday's game and the Thunder took an L to the Philadelphia 76ers, who welcomed back Joel Embiid, making his first appearance since Jan. 30 due to a meniscus injury. Embiid racked up 24 points, six rebounds, four assists and a block and Kelly Oubre led the way with 25 points for the Sixers, while Chet Holmgren paced the Thunder with 22 points, seven rebounds, two blocks and three 3-pointers. SGA and Williams will both be game-time calls for the Thunder on Wednesday, but there's a chance both of them will play tonight. Especially since they're still battling with the Nuggets and Timberwolves for the No. 1 seed in the West.
