🔼 Tigers in the League. Garrett Temple opens the 2026-27 NBA season on the Dallas bench as an assistant to Dusty May, his first year out of uniform since 2009-10 after a 16-year run across 12 teams and 793 games, second among former LSU players only to Shaquille O’Neal. He joins fellow Baton Rouge native and 2006 Final Four teammate Darnell Lazare, now in his second season as a Memphis assistant. Five former Tigers are on opening-day rosters, with Naz Reid starting fresh in Charlotte, Tari Eason back for a fifth year in Houston, Duop Reath on a two-way deal in Phoenix, and Trendon Watford joining New Orleans.

🔼 Press Conference. ICYMI: Lane Kiffin held his weekly press conference presented by Farm Bureau yesterday, with Chris Blair and Gordy Rush opening the show to recap LSU’s huge win on Saturday and preview the Tigers’ upcoming battle at Auburn. Catch it here.
