At the NBPA’s annual winter meeting, Towns and Los Angeles Lakers guard Gabe Vincent were elected as the newest Vice Presidents, while Jaylen Brown was re-elected for a third term. They replace Malcolm Brogdon and Bismack Biyombo, who stepped down after their second terms. Their three-year terms commence immediately.

Even with Josh Hart added to the street-clothes crew with a knee injury, they kicked off their final stretch of 28 regular-season games by pulling out a gritty, 113-111, overtime decision.
