Tipoff time tonight is 6 pm – no broadcast on KFIZ because of high school football. 

MLB: 

A solid 2019 season means this might be the time for catcher Yasmani Grandal to cash in.  An M-L-B Network report says Grandal has declined his 2020 option with the Milwaukee Brewers. The 30-year-old is coming off a season of 28 home runs, 77 runs batted in and some solid defensive play.  The Mets offered him four years and 60-million dollars last off-season, but that wasn’t enough. The online report suggests Cincinnati as a logical destination for Grandal.
