Boban Marjanović intentionally misses free throw to give Clippers fans free chicken
theathletic.com/5415835/2024/04/15/boban-marjanovic-miss-free-throw-free-chicken/
Quick Glance: Boban Marjanovic's Impact on Fans and Game Outcome
- Boban Marjanovic, the Houston Rockets' center, ensured fans in Los Angeles left happy and well-fed.
- During the late fourth quarter of the Rockets' season finale versus the Los Angeles Clippers, Marjanovic stepped up to the free-throw line and missed the initial shot of a pair. An opposing player missing two consecutive free throws in a Clippers promotion grants fans free chicken.
- Displaying a keen understanding of the situation, Marjanovic personally took charge to secure some chicken for the fan base. Gesturing towards himself, the 7'4" center attempted the second free throw, resulting in another miss as the ball clanged off the rim.
- Having spent two seasons with the Clippers, the 35-year-old reciprocated the affection shown by fans during his time in Los Angeles. The gesture was highly valued by fans in the home arena. Fortunately, Marjanovic's actions at the free-throw line did not significantly impact the game, with the Rockets emerging victorious at 116-105.

Quick Glance: Robert MacNeil, Co-Founder of 'PBS NewsHour,' Passes Away at 93
- Robert MacNeil, a Canadian broadcast journalist who established what is now 'PBS NewsHour' and served as its urbane, impartial co-anchor for two decades, died at the age of 93.
- Teaming up with Jim Lehrer in 1975, they formed one of television journalism's most successful and enduring partnerships, launching what later became 'PBS NewsHour.'
- They opted to provide a sophisticated supplement to network nightly news, focusing on a single issue each night with interviews from experts.
- Despite facing criticism for being dull and elitist, the program garnered a loyal audience and expanded to become the country's first national, hour-long nightly news broadcast in 1983.

Quick Glance: Charlotte Hornets Interview Lindsey Harding for Head Coaching Role: Insider
- The Charlotte Hornets have been given the green light to engage with Lindsey Harding, the coach of the G League’s Stockton Kings, for the head coaching position in Charlotte, as confirmed by a league insider on Monday.
- If selected, Harding would make history as the first woman to lead an NBA team as head coach. Recently, Harding was honored as the NBA G League Coach of the Year for guiding the Stockton Kings to an impressive season record of 24-10.

- Despite the scarcity of women in NBA coaching roles, an increasing number are excelling as player development coaches or serving as second or third assistants.
