The Chiefs are putting in place new policies for fans during games at Arrowhead Stadium with regard to Native American imagery.
Among the changes: Fans are prohibited from wearing headdresses into the stadium. Face painting that is styled in a way as to imitate Native American cultures and traditions is also prohibited.
The Chiefs also said they would look into making changes to two favorite Arrowhead traditions among their fans: the Arrowhead Chop and the pregame beating of a drum, often by a former player or coach or other local celebrity.

No. 4 Rockets 111, No. 5 Thunder 98
HOU leads series 2-0
In a game where James Harden struggled from the field, the Rockets showed once again that their offense can come in many shapes and forms. Houston continued to play five-out unpunished by the Thunder. Oklahoma City kept the game tight for the first half and again at the beginning of the fourth but eventually the Rockets kept getting big buckets from a variety of options. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led all scorers with 31 points but the effort was in vain.
No. 1 Bucks 111, No. 8 Magic 96
Series tied 1-1
The Bucks followed up a stunning loss to the Magic in Game 1 by setting the tone early in Game 2. The top seed in the East stormed out of the gates with a 20-point lead that they ultimately preserved throughout the remainder of the contest. Giannis Antetokounmpo dropped 28 and 20 in the W, becoming the second player in franchise history to do so, along with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Orlando shot just .348 from the field, a number that would drop significantly if you subtracted Nikola Vucevic’s 32 points in the losing effort.
No. 1 Lakers 111, No. 8 Trail Blazers 88
Series tied 1-1
Led by an especially lethal Anthony Davis, the Lakers overpowered the Blazers early in their Game 2 matchup and didn’t look back. What started bad for Portland in the first half only got worse in the second as Los Angeles pulled ahead by 30 and Damian Lillard dislocated his finger swiping for a steal attempt. Dame is expected back in action for Game 3, but the Blazers will need a lot more than just that if they want to prove that their Game 1 win wasn’t a fluke. Portland shot just 8-of-29 from beyond the arc and the short-handed squad scored just 88 points, their lowest point total of the 2019-20 season.
