Elephant poaching, largely checked a decade ago after an emotional worldwide campaign to ban ivory sales, is on the rise again in Africa. And once again the issue has polarized the region. Advocates of a total ban say the problem stems from a decision three years ago to permit three elephant-rich southern African countries to sell ivory collected legally during herd management. They say that the sale last April of 59 tons of tusks stockpiled by Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe has reinvigorated smuggling networks....

That leaves Al Jefferson as the Hornets’ last line of defense, but he’s not in position to prevent Bazemore’s layup. Instead, he’s standing at the elbow guarding Al Horford, who, like Millsap, is waiting patiently for a kickout at the 3-point line. Usually Horford would spot-up 16-feet away from the basket, a distance he has grown comfortable from throughout his career. But this is the new-look NBA, where centers venture out beyond the perimeter, and Horford is fully embracing the movement....
