VanVleet’s one-time agent, Andy Miller, runs the coaching and executive division for Klutch. “I’m 99.9 per cent sure it will be Klutch,” said one source who is familiar with VanVleet’s situation.

Dillon Brooks on Russell Westbrook: 'His trash talk is wack'

Law Murray: Dillon Brooks on Friday: “I hope Kawhi plays, I was focused on Kawhi a lot.” Dillon Brooks on Westbrook: “He had a good game. But his trash talk is wack…”

Head coach Jacque Vaughn had high praise for the 26-year-old’s adjustment to the increased usage following Wednesday’s win: “He really has (blossomed),” Vaughn said. “He’s starting for us and playing more minutes than his previous destination. We’ve allowed him to shoot the basketball more than he did previously. He’s handling the basketball in the pick-and-roll. The first play out of halftime was for him and he makes the right decision with it. So we’re really putting more in his hands and he’s responding.”

“It’s just awesome to see the city like this,” Miller said. “I’ve been to many games since I’ve been retired. It’s finally starting to get that playoff atmosphere.”
