I had a great time speaking with @authorrandallb.bsky.social for @clutchpoints.bsky.social about investing in HBCUs, the Atlanta Hawks, and how playing basketball has shaped my leadership style on and off the court.
Boston Celtics guard Payton Pritchard is the 2024-25 NBA Sixth Man of the Year. He’s the fourth Celtic to win the award, joining Kevin McHale, Bill Walton and Malcolm Brogdon. He had the most points off the bench (1,079) this season. He set an NBA single-season record for threes off the bench (246).
This stock market crash thing is so confusing. On one hand you have every economist and bank in the free world freaking out. On the other, there are some blue check accounts on Twitter with ancient statues as their profile pics doing 20 part threads on why down is the new up. 🤷🏻♀️
It took me five days, but I finally have my response to the compelling New York Times article "At Black Colleges, a Stubborn Gender Enrollment Gap Keeps Growing"
My pitch to enroll more black men: sell more of the social value of the college experience.

He’s tanking the economy, destroying our standing in the world, depriving women and LGBTQ communities of their fundamental rights, attacking the environment, disappearing legal immigrants, gutting Veteran’s benefits and Social Security. And he’s making you pay for his golf trips while he’s at it.
Corey Booker is standing on business. 🙏🏾 Gonna listen to his filibuster speech after I get off and try to hear in full.
I just sent Cory Booker money. I will send money to anyone who fights, and I will not send money to anyone who cowers in fear. That has to be the situation, for all of us.
New in PN: John Roberts created a monster. It's about to eat him.
"After all, how can the rightwing justices expect a future president — particularly a Democratic one — to accept rulings limiting the exercise of their power from a Court that served as the judicial stooge of an aspiring dictator?"
Clyburn: "People better get serious about this. When he says he's not joking about throwing away the Constitution, which is what he'd have to do to have a third term, and we are not gonna rise up in opposition to that? I think it's time for us all to wake up."
How are we going to make meaningful change in the political system if we can’t get full control of the system in this modern era?
It’s ridiculous. I really want us to be better.
I want to emphasize again that these are very smart people that have said this. They are very adept in their knowledge on cultural and racial issues, but come to this conclusion about politics.
The distrust and political system is going to continue to set us back.
I just don’t get really smart people saying that there isn’t a huge difference between the Republicans and Democrats.
And it’s WILD people have said and are saying that there wasn’t a huge difference in how a Kamala Harris presidency would go versus how a Trump Presidency is going.
Now that the dust has settled, what a great job by
1) Team security and coaches to break the fight up
2) The fans not to go crazy when it spilled into the stands. Could've easily gone to a Malice at the Palace type situation, but those fans kept their cool and didn't escalate it.
Also, it’s like a Sunday lol the protesters were probably off and decided to pull up 😂🤷🏾♂️

And these nostalgic fans stuck in love with 80’s, 90’s, early 2000’s level enforcers are delusional.
There’s no place in the game for these guys consistently trying to fight and cause drama.
Short shelf life with all the talent in the league.
Same way I feel about Isaiah Stewart, I feel about Dillon Brooks.
Draymond Green is a four-time champion and former Defensive Player of the Year. Stewart and Brooks ain’t that, even though Brooks is a bit more decorated in his career.
That ain’t sustainable.
Liberal Supreme Court letting Musk skate. It’s insane.
And you know they’re doing this because they don’t want the perception that they’re engaging in “election interference” and the voters will be the check and balance 🙄 Like November huh?
Just can’t stand on business against an oligarch.
You can’t tell me this isn’t because they, like everyone else in power, are afraid of Musk.
Norm Powell has 24 points (on 13 shots) in the first half. Wrote about his remarkable career year earlier this week: www.theringer.com/2025/03/28/n...
Another iconic photo for LeBron James' collection 📸
So, the guy who was gonna end all wars has bombed Yemen, threatened to bomb Iran, and threatened to invade Greenland.
Did I get that right?
At least with Draymond, you get high basketball IQ and Hall of Fame level defense.
Stewart be out here, acting like a crash, dummy man. The altercation that lasted the ejections wasn’t directly because of Stuart, but he started the chippiness.
No place in the league for that.
Isaiah Stewart honestly makes me so upset with his approach to the game because he could be a promising role player.
But instead, he wants to be the literal embodiment of the player that fans that call everything players do “soft” want to see more of.
He’s the great value Draymond Green.
PAIGE BUECKERS DROPS A CAREER HIGH 40 POINTS AND UCONN IS HEADED TO THE ELITE 8!
We will be live following #1 USC vs #5 Kansas State to break down the entire slate of games! Link below!
Trump just refused to rule out seeking an unconstitutional third term, claiming “there are methods” for him to stay in office.
“I’m not joking... A lot of people would like me to.”
So far, this SC performance isn’t enough to beat UConn. They need to tighten up!! Wake up!

Get every person in Congress on the record this week. Get it on the record. Then let Americans react.
I feel that his “I don’t know” shtick should be a bigger story.
Military details leaked out and the Commander in Chief didn’t know about it?
Top advisers are using a private messaging app and the President doesn’t know what it is?
Feels like that is very concerning for someone leading our country
“I have no idea what Signal is. I don’t care what Signal is,” Trump said on Saturday. “All I can tell you is it’s just a witch hunt, and it’s the only thing the press wants to talk about, because you have nothing else to talk about. Because it’s been the greatest 100-day presidency in the history of our country.”
Trump says he doesn’t know what Signal is
