As district play begins in basketball, so does the Guy V. Lewis 2017-18 Award watch list.

Houston is home to the likes of NBA pros such as De’Aaron Fox (Cy Lakes) and Justin Jackson (HCYA) of the Sacramento Kings, Justise Winslow (St. John’s) of the Miami Heat, Wesley Iwundu (Westfield) of the Orlando Magic, Joseph Young of Indiana Pacers, Kelly Oubre (Bush) of Washington and Andrew Harrison (Travis) of the Memphis Grizzlies. Don’t forget Gerald Green of the Rockets who played at Gulf Shores Academy.

These are the guys who came before this installment of the Guy V. Lewis Award. College Park’s Quentin Grimes, Sam Houston’s Kendric Davis and Jamal Bieniemy headline the list, but there are dozens of H-Town hoopers challenging for the city’s top player award.

Here’s why MLB is finally seeing the light about an Astros scandal that wasn’t

Carlos Beltran missed out on his first opportunity to be inducted in the Hall of Fame this week, and we discuss how his involvement in the 2017 sign-stealing scandal may have played a role.

Plus, are we seeing a turning of the tide with national baseball writers and their opinion of the Houston Astros?

Bob Nightengale wrote this about Carlos Beltran and the Hall of Fame recently:

But we’re really going to ignore all of that and admonish him for participating in the Astros’ sign-stealing scandal.
Really?
Are we going to do the same with everyone who played for the Red Sox and Yankees during those years, too, when they were fined and disciplined for the illegal use of Apple Watches and dugout phones to relay signs?
Should we hold that against future Hall of Famer Justin Verlander, who obviously didn’t benefit from the sign stealing as a pitcher, but didn’t tell his teammates to stop it?
Enough already.
We’re not talking about performance-enhancing drugs here. Sign stealing has been going on for the past 100 years. There are teams who have used hidden cameras for years. Team employees flashed signs from outfield seats and scoreboards.

Check out the video above as we break it all down.
