At 40, Jamal Crawford shows no signs of slowing down as he joins a Brooklyn Nets side that lost yet another key cog. NBA

The 40-year-old Crawford, known for his outrageous scoring bursts and crafty crossovers, will provide Brooklyn the offensive firepower it desperately needs heading to Disney World Orlando.

In his last game with the Phoenix Suns, the former three-time Sixth Man of the Year winner almost ruined Dirk Nowitzki’s retirement night in Dallas with a 51-point eruption. In one game, he broke two NBA records, one being the oldest player to score 50+ points and the other for scoring the most points in a single game by a bench player. These records were formerly held by Michael Jordan and Nick Anderson, respectively.

Despite his advanced age, Crawford has shown no signs of slowing down, as he still averaged 7.9 points in 18.9 minutes across 64 games with the Suns at age 39. With Prince, Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, DeAndre Jordan, and 3 other Nets players sitting out the season restart, Crawford will get all the shots he wants alongside young guns like slasher Caris LeVert, defensive big man Jarrett Allen and sniper Joe Harris.

Congress urged to pass economic stimulus bills by August to effectively restart economic engineBDO Unibank chief market strategist Jonathan Ravelas notes the legislative chambers must pass the pending economic stimulus bills by August due to geopolitical risks in the coming months that may affect the country’s economic recovery from COVID-19 pandemic This thing is getting super delayed. I am already getting annoyed with all the hubris from both Quimbo and Chua. The deadlock needs to be resolved ASAP so we jumpstart the economy. It may not be perfect (tax cuts and infra focus - which is IMHO bad) but it is better than nothing
