With Luka out tonight against the Suns, Kidd said of Jalen Brunson: “We want Jalen to stay in character and be himself, and play the game that he’s played all season. We’re going to call on Trey Burke and Frank (Ntilikina) to handle the ball tonight and see how they do.” – 9:25 PM

Russia's Gazprom says it will halt gas supplies to Moldova starting Jan. 1
Russia’s state-owned energy giant Gazprom said Saturday it will halt gas supplies to Moldova starting on Jan. 1, citing alleged unpaid debt by the European Union candidate country, which has brought in emergency measures as it braces for power cuts. Gazprom said in an online statement that it reserved the right to take further action, including terminating its contract with Moldovagaz, Moldova's main gas operator, in which the Russian company owns a majority stake. The cessation of gas will stop supplies to the Kuciurgan power plant, the country’s largest, which is situated in the separatist pro-Russian Transnistria region.
