Luke Walton is now an official member of the Los Angeles Lakers’ search for Byron Scott’s replacement. Not that this comes as a shock. His name has been kicked around the rumor mill to no end. His candidacy was a formality. It just wasn’t openly official. Now it is, per ESPN.com’s Marc Stein: Steve Kerr, [...]

Blake Griffin is done for the rest of the NBA playoffs after re-aggravating a left quadriceps injury that kept him sidelined for much of the regular season. And he’s apparently not surprised.
