Ducks Young Forwards Driving the Offense The Anaheim Ducks are 9-9-2 since the NHL 4 Nations Face-Off break and have fallen entirely out of the Western Conference Playoff race, in which they had made a brief appearance early in March when they were within six points (as recent as March 5) of the second Wild Card spot.

These Stats PROVE Anthony Davis Can Drag the Mavs to the Playoffs | The Big Number On this episode of The Big Number, Tom Haberstroh and Dan Devine weigh in on why Anthony Davis is THE most important player with 10 games remaining in the NBA regular season. Patrick Dumont and Nico Harrison get to see whether their high-stakes gamble pays off in the short term, as AD currently has an outside shot to drag the Dallas Mavericks into the Play-In and then perhaps the Playoffs. Plus, Dan explains how the next tier of "most important players" with 10 games to go includes Aaron Gordon, Devin Booker, Jaden McDaniels and Kawhi Leonard — with the Western Conference Playoff picture heating up more each day. And the guys discuss Damian Lillard's DVT diagnosis and how it impacts the Milwaukee Bucks in the short-term, and perhaps additionally impacting Giannis Antetokounmpo's future with Milwaukee in the long run.
