Andre Igoudala's comments on NBA officials discriminating against Stephen Curry were analyzed, with Igoudala adding that the year he's taking off is potentially adding extra years playing in the NBA.

Clippers sometimes postpone practice for hours when Kawhi Leonard's helicopter is delayed because of weather, and this preferential treatment is a huge reason why there is discord in the team locker room.
