Good morning and welcome to the NBA Daily for May 15, 2026.

I'm Dave Dufour.

Here was Zena Keda and Marcus Thompson coming up.

We go deep with Marcus on the Wolves and Spurs series.

We hit the Cavs and Pistons.

And we talk about Steve Kerr resigning with the Warriors and whether they're going to get LeBron James.

Good morning, everybody.

Hello, Zina.

Welcome, Marcus.

How are you, buddy?

What's going on, me?

You know, just chugging along, getting through the playoffs.

If you guys haven't been following along over at the athletic,

Marcus has been covering both sides of wolves spurs, had a great story about Anthony Edwards

and his relationship with his mom, and a great story on Dylan Harper. And, you know, it was funny.

I was having this conversation with another buddy of mine that does basketball work. We were

talking about Dylan Harper.

That dude plays like a guy who had an older brother that was just beating him up all the time.

Like I compared him to John Jones. You know, John Jones has two brothers in the NFL. Like,

of course that dude knows how to fight. And like when you watch Dylan Harper play, kind of plays like a guy that got picked on a little bit by somebody that, you know, maybe was better than him for a large portion of his life. But he plays older. And that has to come from the big brother thing, right? I don't know. It might come from his mother. 14s, you know, the Philippine connection.

He's been talking about that. His mama coached him. Gotta give credit to the women. Yeah, coached him. Hard on him. Might have come from his mom. I mean, could have come from his five-time champion father. Sure. Right. So it just feels like he had it at every turn, right? no matter where he went,

he was getting the business from somebody who knew basketball at a level he didn't yet.
