On November 16, the NBA regular season continued, and there were three more news off the court in the past night. The first dismissal of the season was announced, and the Pelicans fired Willie Green; Durant joined the Rockets in the first 11 games and scored 276 points, surpassing Harden to occupy the first place in team history; the Lakers are under investigation by the league, and the NBA is expected to require at least 10 Lakers employees to hand over their mobile phones and emails.

The Pelicans officially announced that Willie Green will be dismissed from get out of class, and Borrego will serve as the team's interim coach. This is the first head coach dismissal this season. It is reported that Willie Green has completely lost everyone in the locker room. Players and staff all like Borrego. Green has coached the Pelicans for more than four years, but has not achieved very good results. This season, he is currently ranked last in the Western Conference. In the end, the team chose to lay off him.

Borrego was an assistant coach for the Pelicans at first, and he also had coaching experience before, coaching the Hornets, but his record was not very good. In the interview, Borrego said: I hope everyone can come to the venue tomorrow and fill the venue. Let's go all out together, believe in these players, and build our future together.
The Pelicans will face the Warriors at home in the next game. This will also be Borrego's first show after taking office. It depends on whether he can lead the team out of the predicament. Zion's promotion is doubtful, and Poole will miss the chance to play against his old team.

Durant joined the Rockets this summer and is still in strong form this season. In addition to his 30 points against the Trail Blazers, his score in the first 11 games of his career with the Rockets reached 276 points, which also allowed him to occupy the first position in team history. The previous record belonged to James Harden. In his first 11 games with the Rockets, he scored 266 points, but this time he was overtaken by Durant. It has to be said that the Rockets were very right to introduce Durant this summer, giving the team a stable scorer and someone to rely on at critical moments.

Due to the indictment of James' former shooting coach Damon Jones (who had a close relationship with the Lakers), the Lakers have also been investigated by the league. Sam Amick reported that investigators are expected to ask at least 10 Lakers employees for mobile phones and call records and other information. In addition, Lakers assistant trainer Mike Mancias and administrative director Randy Mims have voluntarily handed over their mobile phones to cooperate with the investigation. Both of them were hired by the Lakers because of their close relationship with James. Obviously, they are not worried about being investigated.
