Thunder Big Man “Hurt” After Shocking Offseason Trade
The Oklahoma City Thunder shocked the NBA world by earning the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference last season. En route to a 57-25 record, their best since the 2013-14 season, the Thunder were led by MVP candidate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Coach of the Year Mark Daigneault. Ultimately, the team lost to the Dallas Mavericks in the second round. However, it is clear the Thunder are destined for greatness. And after their offseason moves this summer, the Thunder likely have further solidified themselves as title contenders. Most notably, the team traded Josh Giddey to the Chicago Bulls for defensive ace Alex Caruso.

Opioid settlement fuels treatment center

The Cherokee Nation also settled with e-cigarette maker Juul in 2022 over the company’s role in youth vaping. Those settlements were funneled into the Public Health and Wellness Fund Act of 2021 – amended most recently in 2023 – which dedicates $100 million for a variety of public health programs, including $76 million for drug treatment capital projects.
Show Review: Dave Hause at Spaceship Earth Coffee in McAlester, OK
As I’ve gotten older, sometimes when I go to shows I wish they’d sell coffee to keep me going throughout the show. It’s been done before, Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ used to sell coffee drinks during their Summer shows, and very rare other venues have too. Obviously, it isn’t a big selling point at a show, but for me, drinking coffee and listening to music go together perfectly. Seeing a show and getting coffee during a band’s set couldn’t be better, and that is exactly what happened in McAlester, OK during Dave Hause’s set on Saturday.
