Joe Alexander and the Texas Legends won their second game in a row, defeating the Rio Grand Valley Vipers 109-97. The win over the NBDL Western Conference leaders put the Legends into a tie for the final Playoff spot with Fort Wayne and Idaho. Alexander led the team with 23 points and 10 rebounds on 9-16 shooting. It was his 21st double-double of the season. The Legends have three games left in the regular season with their final home game coming on Wednesday vs. the Springfield Armor at 7:00 pm.

After the Jazz's trade of Eric Maynor to the Thunder, it seems that former Bobcat Dontell Jefferson--who was playing well in the D-League: 19-6A-5R-1.5S as the starting PG for the 7-5 Utah Flash--will get the callup to replace Maynor on the roster. This was a natural fit, as the Flash have been closely related to the Jazz for several years, sharing staff connections, practice space, and even some ticket deals. Tough, that the Bobcats can't afford to take on the loss to have a similar closely linked D-League franchise and have to ship their players off into a far-flung corner of the country if they want them developed and have to make the same trip to scout half the games of NBDL players with some knowledge of their system (if they run any of it at all without a Bobcats assignee on the team--the Celtics basically define how the team is run because of their closer proximity and heavier investment in them.)

I dont know if anybody posted this previously but here it is. Hairston has not been recalled yet.
