This week, Elevation Worship's Chris Brown tells us why the band took an extra year off from releasing music — and what their new album ‘So Be It' sounds like on the other side of that pause. We also hear from Portland Trail Blazers chaplain Mike Tatlock, who talked to us during NBA All-Star Weekend to share what he's seeing behind the scenes: more players showing up to chapel, more genuine conversations about faith, and a tangible spiritual shift across pro sports.In RELEVANT Buzz, we dig into a new report revealing the alcohol industry has lost $830 billion in the last four years — largely because Gen Z just isn't drinking.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk NBA and MLB futures. The San Antonio Spurs are being priced at over 56 and a half wins on DraftKings, with the over carrying minus 125 juice, and that number reflects both expectation and opportunity. With Victor Wembanyama on the roster, San Antonio enters every matchup with a legitimate chance to win, and that foundational advantage underpins the case for backing the over. Clearing 56 and a half wins requires at least 57 victories, a threshold that aligns with what it will likely take to secure the top seed in the conference at minimum. There is a realistic path to 60 wins, but the wager only demands 57, creating a margin that supports the position. The remaining schedule presents challenges, ranking as the 10th most difficult, yet it also includes a mix of matchups that can be leveraged. Games against the Sacramento Kings, Portland Trail Blazers, Indiana Pacers, and Dallas Mavericks are on the slate, along with contests versus the Bucks and the Grizzlies. Within that structure lies the opportunity to accumulate the necessary wins. Given the talent at the top of the roster and the balance of competition ahead, the Spurs are positioned to reach at least 57 victories and push beyond the posted total.

The city of Portland has recently uncovered several piles of money no one knew was there. At the same time, the city is looking at a pot of money that some say should be off limits to keep the Portland Trail Blazers in town. We are living in a time of meager public budgets. Look pretty much anywhere in Oregon these days, and you find school districts preparing cuts, state budget writers figuring out what has to go, and cities looking at tough choices. So it’s been notable in recent months to see the city of Portland stumbling over piles of money that no one knew was there. At the same time, the city is scrambling to make sure it keeps the Portland Trail Blazers in town, and to do so it’s looking at a pot of money that some say should be off limits. We are diving into the city’s bank accounts today – with a side of sports talk.
