By Jordan Pierce , RF Sports Radio NBA voice NBA fans, opening night gave us comebacks. Night two gave us history. Anthony Edwards joined a two-man club that starts with Wilt Chamberlain and Michael Jordan, and a 7-foot-2 center in purple and gold did not miss a shot.

He scored 41 in last season's opener, and the AP says he joins only Chamberlain and Jordan as players with at least 40 points in multiple openers. LaMelo Ball scored 21 in his Minnesota debut, Rudy Gobert grabbed 15 rebounds, and Minnesota outscored Miami 63-24 from three and outrebounded the Heat 52-34. Antetokounmpo scored 35 on 13-of-19 shooting before fouling out. In Los Angeles, the Lakers beat the Warriors 127-105, per the AP. Walker Kessler scored 26 points on 12-of-12 shooting with nine rebounds in his Laker...

By Cam Sutton , RF Sports Radio Colorado voice Buffs fans, Coach Prime wants his team to score the football. The injury report just made that a lot harder. Colorado goes into a sold-out homecoming in Stillwater without its leading rusher and two of its receivers.

By Mac Rivera , RF Sports Radio Baylor voice Bears fans, sometimes the most important thing that happens in a losing week is not a depth-chart change. It is the players deciding they have seen enough. That is what happened in Waco on Tuesday morning. The facts After the 17-6 loss to TCU, Baylor's offense held a player-led meeting Tuesday morning , with quarterback DJ Lagway and receiver Jadon Porter leading it, per The Baylor Lariat. "We had a lot of guys speaking up, but those two were at the front," receiver Jayden McGowan said. Lagway's message, per McGowan, was to "get back to our brand of football. Let's not let that loss dictate us." McGowan also admitted the team "could have got a little complacent over the bye week." Dave Aranda described the mood bluntly: "I want another shot. I want to play right now. This ain't us. I'm embarrassed. I'm pissed off. I'm ready to go." He called those "real positiv...
