    I saw him at the Target in Portland area. Pretty unique to see someone a lot taller than me, but then the hair of course was unmistakable as well. Can attach a picture, if able to do so with jpg (no idea how). We definitely could have used him on this past years team! :)

    Did you ask him whether Russel Westbrook is 2 first round picks better than Chris Paul?

    But also what was he buying at Target?

    I don’t know, but I did capture part of his cart in the picture. I can’t tell whether they are T-shirts or bedsheets.

    With his slow lateral quickness and mediocre man defense, OP had no problem cutting in front of him in line.

    Did you ask him if we could get Clint Capela back now that he’s gone?

    Nah my guy, I cant let you do this lol. Covington was a really good player for us. However good his man to man defense was, his help defense was amazing next to Tucker.

    He was like our second best player in the playoffs that year we had Russ lol.
