The first time Grant West heard Carl Walker improvise on a church piano, he almost thought he’d met a long-lost twin.“I felt like I’d known him for a very long time,” said West, 76, who would go on to co-found a Selby Avenue music school bearing both their names. “Every now and then, I would hear somebody play, and I’d say, ‘That must be one of Carl Walker’s students,’ and it was. You could tell who was studying with him. He left his fingerprints.”Walker, who had once won a college scholarship by playing “Clair de Lune” at an Illinois gospel convention, was equally impressed. “We started out as good musical friends, and have been that ever since day one,” said the 85-year-old reverend, who keeps busy in retirement raising four of his great-grandchildren.On a winter’s day in early 1988, with the two church musicians eager to move beyond hosting lessons in their living rooms, the Walker West Musi...Janae Edmondson set to have another surgery Monday

Mark Kiszla: I’m not very good with numbers. Heck, I couldn’t remember the four-digit entry code to Team Post’s abode in South Florida without a cheat sheet. But I saw this stat from a hoops number-cruncher with a sense of history: Nuggets center Nikola Jokic is the first player in NBA history to produce 500 points, 250 rebounds and 150 assists in a single postseason. Sounds pretty, pretty good to me. Was Michael Jordan ever more dominant in the playoffs than the Joker we’re watching now? Has LeBron James or any other legend of the game ever done more for his team in the pursuit of a ring? Put it in historical perspective and explain it to me like I’m a 7-year-old child.Mike Singer: Nikola Jokic is an unsolvable riddle capable of flummoxing even the NBA’s best coaches.
