Available in all platforms and part of the number one sports podcast network. The Lockdown podcast network. Thank you again for making us number one. It is Thursday, my dudes, and we're doing

a daily recap with 10 games on. Let's go through some of the news because otherwise I fear the show

may be a little bit lengthy. That's what she said. So what is the news? Well, we got the update on Larry Markin. First of all, we got the update to the retraction of the comment that the league was sending doctors to watch the MRI, which is not true. Wasn't true at all, apparently. They were just going to be monitoring the results they do with every other MRI. So who knows?

Anyway, the MRI came back and Larry Marklin has a hip impingement.

He's out for at least two weeks, re-evaluated in two weeks.

Now, again, I am not holding your hand.

Some of you may have really nice hands,

and maybe I'd miss out on a good opportunity to hold your hand.

But I'm not holding your hand to tell you drop or hold, but I'll say this. I think if you drop him, I think he'll be

all right. Yeah, he might come back and sporadically play a few little games, but I reckon we might be

done. I don't know. We're really close to it. Close to it. I don't know for sure. We might be close to it. So I think if you wanted to,

you'd be alright. We'll talk about the jazz and the replacements later on. Jalen Smith,

the Bulls, again, I've heard other people on some other podcasts and writing about things,

but you guys already need this, talking about, man, what do the Bulls do?

I had to hold on to Jalen Smith

because they said he was out for a while, and they said he was doubtful, so that meant day-to-day. Never believe them. You all know that, don't you? Because we heard Billy Donovan say, yeah, man, it's not day-to-day, he's out a while, the bulls, doubtful.
