Ayo and Terrence make it pretty easy to keep up. Turn on the game, check the box score, send somebody the highlight. Following Coleman Hawkins, Dain Dainja and Marcus Domask takes a few more stops. There are G League rights to sort through, camp cuts that don’t tell the whole story, and a familiar scorer doing his thing a long way from Champaign.
That’s where we’re spending most of today. We followed these guys closely when they wore orange and blue. There’s still plenty of basketball worth following after they leave.
First, a quick Friday NBA check-in
These numbers are from October 23:
Ayo: 14 points and seven rebounds in Minnesota’s 115–93 win over Orlando. Terrence added 13 points, four rebounds and an assist.

Denver waived Coleman on October 17. That’s the latest confirmed NBA move, and it puts the focus back on his next opportunity.
