Three lottery teams – Washington, Phoenix, and Boston – are possibilities. If the Celtics get Precious with their No. 14 pick, they will ironically draft a Memphis Tiger using a pick acquired from the Memphis Grizzlies. No way Precious is still on the board when the Grizzlies pick at No. 40.<\/p>\n Andrew Cabigao<\/a> plays Momma’s tonight at 6:30.<\/p>\n Mississippi health officials are concerned<\/a> after the sheriff of DeSoto County says he will not enforce the state’s mandatory mask order.
