White put his head down and stopped worrying about defenders. He charged toward the rim, barreling awkwardly into Moussa Diabat" in a flat parabola that sent him crashing down into the hardwood. White had wanted to play hero, offer the Chicago Bulls another two points as they found themselves mired in a shootout against the sixth-worst defense in the league. Instead, he ended up halfway into a back roll, shoulders crunched against the stanchion, legs flailing with the bleak desperation that defined the Bulls throughout the first half. White's feet hit both Brandon Miller and Diabat" in the process, contact that was too aimless to inflict injury. The officiating team nevertheless upgraded the foul to a flagrant…...

Creekside Elementary School in suburban Plainfield hosted a grand opening of a section with books dedicated to understanding dyslexia. One of the authors featured is Creekside's very own fifth grader, Cecilia Santagata. She loves a good story so much so that she tells her own story in her book "Cecilia's Journey Embracing Dyslexia."
