TODAY'S STUFF: NBA Inside Stuff's second straight NBDL show airs today at 1 p.m. ET on ABC. The show focuses on life in the NBA's minor league through the eyes of the Florida Flame and coach Dennis Johnson.

PARITY PARTY: Fayetteville is the only NBDL team with a winning record over its last five games. Roanoke, Columbus, Asheville and Florida are all 2-3 and Huntsville 1-4 over their last five outings.

TWO LEADERS: Should Roanoke's Isiah Victor and James Thomas hang on to their respective league leads in scoring and rebounding, it would be the second time that one NBDL team could boast of the leader in both those categories. Nate Johnson and Tang Hamilton turned the trick for Columbus in 2002-03.
