We’re close to the season, folks. How close? The new guys are picking out uniform numbers.
May I present to you Messrs. Willy Hernangomez, Mindaugas Kuzminskas and Justin Holiday:
Willy took the sacred No. 14 of Anthony Mason. Hopefully he can wash off the stink of the previous wearer, Jason Smith. Holiday takes over the No. 8 for one of the dudes he was traded for, Robin Lopez. Hopefully he plays so well that we’ll some day think of this as a Lopez-for-Holiday deal.
As for Yung Mindy, he chose 91 because it’s the inverse of his favorite number, 19.
