He’s going to be a killer rebounder, monster screener and will consistently establish his position even against some of the stronger NBA players. I’m done doubting Edey, even as an NBA player. As an enormous ballhandler with serious touch and incredible vision as a passer, Topić is clearly an NBA player, even if it doesn’t all translate. Shannon is an elite athlete, but the NBA game requires more nuance, especially if he continues to be an inconsistent shooter. However, I also think he’s more than just a floor spacer on offense in spot-up situations and potentially as an off-ball scorer.

2 Purdue will bring completely different styles into the championship game of the Maui Invitational on Wednesday in Honolulu. Marquette went on a 9-0 run early in the second half to open a 49-32 lead with 16:03 to go. "Well, we kept our poise," Marquette coach Shaka Smart said in a television interview immediately after the game. Kansas is a really good team. Purdue probably will need to get more from its bench against the Golden Eagles than it did against Tennessee.

HONOLULU (AP) — Oso Ighodaro had 21 points and nine rebounds as No. Tempers flared in the first half after Kansas swingman Kevin McCullar Jr. drained a 3-pointer in front of Marquette's bench.

4 Marquette will try to figure out how to stop the dynamic duo of Hunter Dickinson and Kevin McCullar Jr. as No. McCullar had 22 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists, recording just the seventh set of back-to-back triple-doubles in NCAA history and the first in Kansas history. McCullar had just the third official triple-double in school history in the Jayhawks' victory over Kentucky in Kansas' previous game. Self expected Adams to play around 10 minutes, but Adams had eight points and four assists in 26 minutes. David Joplin led Marquette with 19 points, followed by Ighodaro with 14 and Kam Jones with 12.

Two photographs of different Labrador retriever rescue dogs were not captured in the aftermath of the earthquakes that struck Turkey and Syria on Feb. 6. One image shows a Labrador covered in dirt looking at the camera, with the second showing a similar-looking Labrador wearing goggles, boots, and a harness. The photograph shows a rescue dog who searched for victims following a mudslide in Oso, Washington (here). The latter photograph is viewable on Getty Images and shows a rescue dog called Frida who belonged to the Mexican Navy. One photograph was captured in 2014 and shows a rescue dog searching for people following a mudslide in Oso, Washington.
