Jorge Sedano, Ramona Shelburne and Richard Jefferson head to “Crunch Time,” reacting to Adrian Wojnarowski’s report that the Minnesota Timberwolves are interviewing Juwan Howard for their head-coaching job, Seth Curry losing a bet to Steph Curry from the 3-point contest, and a Turkish broadcaster not showing Portland Trail Blazers vs. Golden State Warriors due to Enes Kanter’s presence. They then (2:05) go to the season finale of “Tank Wars,” with Jefferson jokingly guaranteeing the New York Knicks will win the 2019 NBA draft lottery and land Zion Williamson.
