Fansided

It’s the best month of the year for basketball fans. We’ve already been treated to multiple historic upsets and some dominant performances from college basketball’s top programs. Naturally, NBA scouts will be glued to the action. What better atmosphere in which to evaluate talent than the biggest stage in college sports? Meanwhile, we are in the final stretch of the NBA regular season and teams are beginning to act accordingly: the tankers are tanking, some of the winners are resting (shouts to Denver, they haven’t tried in a week), and the play-in hopefuls refuse to budge, making the whole draft picture a bit muddy. The West has been particularly difficult to sift through this season. The line between contenders and pretenders is more clearly defined in the East, but even still, you have teams like Chicago, Washington, and Toronto desperately trying to salvage what most would consider lost seasons.
