Geoff Calkins has been chronicling Memphis and Memphis sports for more than two decades. He is host of "The Geoff Calkins Show" from 9-11 a.m. M-F on 92.9 FM. Calkins has been named the best sports columnist in the country five times by the Associated Press sports editors, but still figures his best columns are about the people who make Memphis what it is.

Ja Morant is going to sign his contract extension, Kyle Anderson and Tyus Jones seem unlikely to return, and Steven Adams thinks “duckmaster” would be a fine thing to put in a Tinder profile. What we learned from the Grizzlies’ postseason news conferences.
