LAS VEGAS — If you play for the Blue, the boss will subject you to The Boss.
Players on Oklahoma City's G League team have grown accustomed to Mark Daigneault's devotion to Bruce Springsteen.
Daigneault quotes lyrics. He'll blast a song unannounced during a game-situation simulation at practice, the better to help his team block out distractions. He's been known to sing Springsteen in a huddle.
“We had a game where we had 30 turnovers, and I did a film edit of the turnovers to a Springsteen song,” Daigneault said.
