In a world full of endless NBA rumors, Dwight Howard just delivered one plot twist we didn’t see coming. On Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast, Dwight didn’t hold back when discussing that tricky relationship with none other than Kobe Bryant. We’re talking about the late, great Black Mamba, who, if you ask any Lakers fan, didn’t seem to mesh well with Dwight back in the day. But Dwight? Oh, he’s here to set the record straight—and boy, did he bring receipts.Kobe Said What Now? Sharpe, ever the master instigator, came at Dwight with a rumor that’s been floating around longer than Dwight’s career itself: apparently, Kobe wasn’t exactly a fan of Howard’s cough “work ethic.” The former Lakers center looked visibly baffled. “There’s no way he said that,” Howard quickly shot back. “Nobody in the NBA can say anything about my work ethic! My body’s better now than when I first entered the league!” (Cue the gym selfie montage, Dwight.)Sure, Dwight. That’s why half the NBA has your number on speed dial for pickup games, right?But Wait, There’s More… Then came Shannon’s sucker punch: “But Kobe called you soft, right?” The mere mention of this had Dwight launching into a defense quicker than his free throws—oh wait, maybe that’s a bad example. He adamantly denied rejecting a Lakers contract extension and the whole billboard fiasco: “No max contract! No billboards! I went to Houston for James Harden, not because of some imaginary L.A. signage,” he claimed, practically willing us to believe him with the intensity of someone who’s spent years fighting this narrative.You’ve got to admire the man’s persistence. Dwight’s been defending himself for months now, and yet here we are, still talking about it. A masterclass in PR or just a guy caught in a never-ending loop of “he said, she said”?Houston, We Have… Dwight? Howard doubled down on his reason for ditching L.A., stating he joined the Houston Rockets for one simple reason: a young, fiery James Harden. “I saw a menace I could grow with,” he declared, as if Harden was some kind of adorable yet terrifying Chia Pet. Because nothing says championship potential like side-stepping max contracts to hang out with a beard that, let’s be honest, would eventually overshadow both of them in the press.As for Dwight’s discomfort during the interview, well, let’s just say he looked like he was still dodging Kobe’s imaginary billboards. Months later, the man’s still working overtime to convince everyone that his NBA story wasn’t written by TMZ. If Howard keeps at this rate, he might just start a podcast to clear up all the rumors—a weekly series on debunking every myth surrounding his career. Now that I’d tune in for!So, was Dwight Howard soft? Did Kobe really think he was a slacker? We may never know. But one thing’s for sure—Dwight is definitely not done explaining himself anytime

Picture this: It’s a standard night of preseason NBA action. The Lakers are playing the Bucks, LeBron’s out there, probably doing LeBron things. And just when you think the broadcast is going to coast through the game, NBA TV pulls a move so wild, it could only happen in the James family spotlight. Yes, the broadcast credited a technical foul meant for the King himself… to his son, Bronny. Oops.Now, let’s rewind a bit. The 2024 preseason was hyped for the obvious reason—LeBron and Bronny on the same team. It’s like every basketball fan’s fever dream. LeBron missed the Lakers’ first game against the Timberwolves, probably sipping some rare wine and enjoying his “load management.” But by the time the October 6th game against the Suns rolled around, LeBron was back on the court, sharing an NBA floor with his son for the very first time. Historic, right? Sure, if you can ignore the awkward rookie moment.By Thursday, in the matchup against the Bucks, the Lakers—under their fresh new head coach, JJ Redick—were rolling along just fine. Enter LeBron, charging to the hoop in typical freight-train fashion, ready to show Giannis Antetokounmpo he still owns the paint. After absorbing some serious contact, LeBron was feeling a bit, shall we say, sensitive about the no-call. So, he lets the refs know exactly how he feels. Bam—technical foul. But wait, what’s that on the screen? NBA TV, in all its broadcast glory, decides to pin the tech on… Bronny. Yes, Bronny. Because clearly, the 19-year-old rookie sitting quietly on the bench was definitely jawing at the refs, right?Cue the confusion. Social media exploded. Was Bronny out here catching heat for his dad’s foul? Is this some bizarre rite of passage in the NBA, where you have to absorb your father’s techs like a sponge? Of course, reality soon hit—NBA TV just hit the wrong button. The real refs and the official scorekeepers weren’t about to give Bronny that “honor” so soon. But hey, the moment had already taken on a life of its own.And poor Bronny? Well, he’s just trying to keep his head down and find his rhythm. The young James is averaging a solid 1.0 point, 1.5 rebounds, and a jaw-dropping 0.5 assists through two games. Yeah, those numbers scream “rookie growing pains,” but this is Bronny James. Expectations are sky-high, and his potential, while simmering under the surface, has Lakers fans hopeful.But let’s not kid ourselves—everything Bronny does will be scrutinized. If the kid sneezes wrong, it’ll probably trend on Twitter. The NBA TV mix-up may have been minor, but it was a glimpse into the microscope Bronny’s living under. It’s like they’re waiting for him to mess up, just to prove that even he can’t dodge his father’s shadow.As for LeBron, the Lakers’ preseason performance is secondary to the bigger storyline—how will he, at the twilight of his career, pass the torch? And more importantly, how is he going

In a world where LeBron James could probably sell you the sky and convince you it’s purple, former NBA star Jeff Teague has decided to call out the King for what he calls “next-level fiction.” Teague, a 2015 NBA All-Star and 2021 champion, has some major respect for the Lakers’ legend. But even Teague has his limits when it comes to LeBron’s storytelling—and apparently, that limit was reached when LeBron claimed he spotted his son Bronny’s future NBA career at the tender age of five. Yes, five.LeBron dropped this nugget during the Lakers’ Media Day as the 2024/25 NBA season looms, when he and Bronny will attempt to become the first father-son duo to play in the league. According to Teague, though, LeBron might want to pump the brakes on the hyperbole.“I fk with LeBron,” Teague said on the Club 520 podcast, probably bracing himself for the inevitable LeBron stans sliding into his DMs. “I fk with the whole moment. But the only thing I didn’t feel was when he said, ‘Yeah, Bronny was five years old, and I just knew he was going to the league.’ Like, stop. I love y’all to death, I love your whole family, but bro… c’mon.”Oof. The “cap” alarm is blaring.The Father-Son Dream… With Some Added FlairLeBron’s tale was all about how he predicted, almost like some kind of NBA Nostradamus, that his son was destined for the big leagues before he’d even mastered tying his shoelaces. Now, to be fair, Bronny did get drafted in 2024, but it was in the second round with the 55th overall pick—not exactly the number one prodigy status dad might’ve envisioned from the sandbox days.Still, we can’t fault the guy for aiming high. And to be honest, Bronny’s journey is inspiring. The kid came back from a terrifying cardiac arrest scare and suited up for USC, where he showed off his hustle on defense. Sure, he didn’t exactly set the court on fire offensively (averaging a humble 4.8 points per game), but hey, defense wins championships, right? Maybe just not headlines.Fans Come to the King’s DefenseNow, as expected, the internet had opinions. While Teague might have been playing the role of truth-teller, some fans weren’t having it. One loyal LeBron supporter clapped back online, saying, “Dudes hating bc LeBron felt his son had the ability to make the league by his skills at an early age… yep, haters will look 4 anything negative… nothing new here folks.”Another chimed in with, “It’s LeBron’s son; he knew he was going to the league in the delivery room,” because obviously the birthing suite doubles as a scouting department.And one final fan summed it up with, “I do believe that LeBron be cappin, but thinking your son is going to the league is the most believable s**t ever.”Teague vs. The King: Who’s Really Right?Look, we get it. LeBron is proud of his kid—like, really proud. And if he wants to toss a little extra seasoning on the story of

The San Francisco 49ers didn’t just snag a win against the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday night — they also gave us one of the most viral sideline moments of the season. But let’s be honest, it wasn’t George Kittle’s two-touchdown performance or Kyle Juszczyk’s key rushing score that made headlines. Nope, it was their wives, Claire Kittle and Kristin Juszczyk, stealing the show like seasoned pros in the art of touchdown celebrations. Who knew NFL games came with guest stars?Tight end George Kittle, who was having a solid night with five catches for 58 yards, added a couple of crucial touchdowns to his stat sheet. But after his second score, he wasn’t heading for the usual teammate chest bumps or the classic end-zone spike. Instead, he dashed towards the stands, where Claire and Kristin were ready, not with football advice, but with arms wide open for what can only be described as the most wholesome (and viral) group hug ever.Forget play-calling—this was pure love-calling. And right there, at the heart of it, was Claire Kittle, whose WAG (wives and girlfriends of athletes) status might just be upgraded to Head Cheerleader Extraordinaire. The woman was hype.Juszczyk’s Big Moment—And the EncoreNot to be outdone, fullback Kyle Juszczyk got in on the action too. After his own rushing touchdown, the stage was set for yet another round of spouse-powered sideline shenanigans. Kittle wasn’t going to let Juszczyk hog the limelight; after all, friendship goals are real in the NFL. Together with teammates Deebo Samuel and Colton McKivitz, Kittle made a mad dash back to Claire and Kristin for yet another group celebration. At this point, you almost expect a choreographed dance routine for their next outing.Honestly, why stop at touchdowns? These players should just call a time-out for “Wives on the Sideline.” It’s not every day you see NFL stars rush off the field mid-game for hugs, but hey, maybe it’s the key to victory. Claire and Kristin might have cracked the code.Behind the Bromance: Kittle and Juszczyk’s Bro BondNow, let’s not forget the heartwarming bromance between Kittle and Juszczyk that’s clearly a driving force behind all these celebrations. Over seven seasons with the 49ers, the duo has become more than just teammates—they’re practically each other’s football soulmates. They’ve been through two Super Bowl appearances, countless touchdowns, and more than a few post-game beers, no doubt.“George has been one of my best friends since I joined the Niners,” Juszczyk commented. “We hang out a lot, both on and off the field. Going through so much together builds something special.”No kidding, Kyle. That “something special” clearly extends to touchdown celebrations that now include a VIP section for their wives. Should we expect to see more family moments during their games? Will pets get involved next? Stay tuned.Claire Kittle’s Take on Being a

In the chaotic soap opera that is NFL trade season, the latest episode brings us the blockbuster that could involve Davante Adams, the Las Vegas Raiders’ disgruntled wide receiver. With the Raiders officially putting the All-Pro WR on the trade block, fans and analysts alike have been fantasizing about where the star could land. Sure, a typical trade involves boring old things like draft picks and salary caps—but Pittsburgh Steelers safety DeShon Elliott has decided to up the ante.Appearing on The Sick Podcast, Elliott boldly threw his hat in the ring, pushing for Adams to come to Pittsburgh. But that’s not all. Nope, he wasn’t content with a mere suggestion. He sweetened the deal in the most NFL-player-way possible: by offering up his beloved Mercedes G-Wagon to make it happen.“I’d like him to be a Steeler. That would help us a lot,” said Elliott, clearly channeling his inner fan GM. “He’s out there. He wants to go elsewhere. Bring him here. If we need to sell my G-Wagon, we can sell it.”That’s right, Elliott is willing to give up his luxury SUV for the chance to see Adams in the black and gold. At this rate, if Adams wants more, maybe Elliott’s house is on the table too. Who knows? In a league where fortunes turn on a dime, anything’s possible.Adams Wants Out, and the Raiders Are Open for BusinessDavante Adams’ current stint with the Las Vegas Raiders, after a dramatic trade from the Green Bay Packers in 2022, has apparently lost its shine. Who can blame him? The Raiders have been about as steady as a seesaw on a windy day. Now, entering the third year of his $140-million deal, Adams wants out faster than you can say, “What’s the Raiders’ record again?”Adams isn’t just looking for greener pastures; he’s practically packing his bags himself. And the Raiders, well, they seem like they’re in the mood to entertain offers—assuming the right draft pick comes along. The word on the NFL street (courtesy of insider Tony Pauline) is that Vegas is asking for a second-round pick in exchange for Adams. Four teams have already expressed interest: the New York Jets, Buffalo Bills, Pittsburgh Steelers (of course, Elliott’s pitch might help), and New Orleans Saints.The Problem With the CompetitionLet’s be real, though. Both the Jets and the Saints are currently on fire—and not the good kind. The Jets are fresh off firing head coach Robert Saleh, and interim coach Jeff Ulbrich is now left to pick up the pieces of whatever their 2024 season was supposed to be. The Saints? They’re in a fun little mess of their own with quarterback Derek Carr nursing an oblique injury. Yep, the same Derek Carr Adams left in Las Vegas. Looks like Adams is running out of places to run to.That leaves the Steelers and Bills. Buffalo, with their Super Bowl ambitions, could certainly use another offensive weapon to help Josh Allen throw his way out of those regrettable interceptions. And the

By now, you’d think Dallas Cowboys star Dak Prescott could have one quiet day off the field. Nope. Not even close. The guy can’t demolish his own house without becoming prime-time gossip.So, what’s the latest? Well, while most quarterbacks are focused on breaking down defenses, Dak’s been busy breaking down his own mansion in Texas. Yep, the house he bought and lived in is getting torn apart – for a good cause, by the way. But leave it to TMZ to turn it into headline gold. A video surfaced showing Dak, calmly (if not slightly annoyed), watching his own home get reduced to rubble. Groundbreaking entertainment, right?But don’t get it twisted—this wasn’t just some average tear-down job. It wasn’t like Dak woke up one morning and thought, “You know what I’d love to do today? See my house turned into a pile of dust.” Nope. He’s planning a bold redesign, and with the kind of paycheck he’s pulling in, let’s just say this isn’t your run-of-the-mill renovation. But you’d think with all that cash, he’d at least be able to dodge the media circus, right? Wrong.Dak vs. the DronesWhen asked about the situation, Dak didn’t exactly pull his punches. “I think it’s crazy the coverage that it got,” Prescott said. “Just being frank, trying to keep my personal life my personal life.” Now, before you get too emotional about Dak’s desire for privacy, you should know that the guy’s building a fortress—sorry, a “home”—that’ll be his future family’s hideaway. He’s even preparing to raise a daughter there, far away from nosy cameras and TMZ’s drone-flying antics.“I truly don’t appreciate the drones, the extra videos, and, honestly, the conversation of it,” he added. Yeah, because what everyone really needs is a play-by-play of how his new walk-in closet is coming along. But sure, Dak, totally normal for you to want some peace and quiet while an entire nation obsesses over your drywall choices.Football vs. Fixer-UpperMeanwhile, with his mansion literally in shambles, Dak’s still got work to do on the field. The Cowboys are gearing up for their next showdown against the Detroit Lions, and Prescott’s not going to let a little thing like his house being demolished distract him. Because what’s more stressful—planning a multi-million-dollar home redesign or trying to win another game before the bye week? We’ll let you decide.The good news? Dak is “super blessed” to be able to build what he wants. And while the media frenzy seems to be turning his house demo into the latest reality TV sensation, Prescott’s focus is clear: keep the cameras away, win some football games, and create a peaceful space where he can raise his family—sans drone surveillance.So, the next time you hear about Dak Prescott, just remember: he’s not just fighting to win football games. He’s also fighting for his right to demolish a house in peace.Original

In a move that had both fans and critics raising their eyebrows, Natalie Nakase is packing her bags and leaving the neon-lit streets of Las Vegas for the breezy hills of the Bay Area. Yes, folks, the Las Vegas Aces’ first assistant coach is now the head honcho for the freshly-minted Golden State Valkyries. A bold move? Absolutely. But hey, if you’ve got a resume like Nakase’s, why not?Nakase, who’s spent the last three years as the brains behind the Aces’ back-to-back championships in 2022 and 2023, is now jumping headfirst into leading an expansion team that doesn’t even have a win on the board—yet. With the Valkyries ready to debut in 2025, Nakase has plenty of time to whip them into shape. Talk about a glow-up for the newest WNBA team.But let’s rewind for a second. Who is this Natalie Nakase, you ask? Well, she’s not just your average coach. She’s been making basketball waves long before the Aces’ champagne showers. Nakase spent over a decade with the Los Angeles Clippers, doing everything from assistant coach duties to player development wizardry with their G League affiliate. You might say she’s been living in the gym. And yes, she’s had stints overseas too, head coaching in Germany and Japan—because, why not?“Being named the head coach of the Golden State Valkyries is a lifelong dream come true,” Nakase gushed. You can almost imagine the tears of joy as she thanked Joe Lacob, Ohemaa Nyanin, and the entire Golden State crew for throwing her the keys to this brand-new franchise. “We’re building a winning culture of grit, hard work, and competitiveness,” she added. Translation: If you thought we were going to be a punching bag for the established teams, think again.General Manager Ohemaa Nyanin couldn’t be more thrilled, saying Nakase is the perfect choice to lead this fresh-faced team. “She’s got the grit. She’s got the perseverance. She’s basically the basketball coach version of Rocky Balboa,” Nyanin may or may not have said. But it’s true—Nakase’s been everywhere, done everything, and now it’s Valkyrie time.As for her exit from the Aces, Nakase admitted that it wasn’t easy. “It was hugs, tears, and probably more hugs,” she said. And considering how successful Vegas has been with her on the bench, that sounds about right. But, as the saying goes, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas—and Nakase is already on to the next big thing.After all, the Valkyries are no ordinary expansion team. They’ve got big plans. And if Nakase’s record is any indication, those plans probably include trophies, confetti, and a whole lot of hard-earned victories. Buckle up, Golden State, because Natalie Nakase is ready to take you on one wild ride.Original Source...https://lnkd.in/dV94M8rD#AngelReese #CaitlinClark #IndianaFever #NatalieNakaseTradesVegasGlitterforBayAreaGrit:BecomesHeadCoachofGoldenStateValkyries #sportsnews #WNBA #womenbasketball

Angel Reese is taking over everywhere she goes, whether it’s on the court, on Instagram, or now on Nick Cannon’s Wild ‘N Out. With a nickname like “Chi Barbie,” you already know she’s bringing both the fierce game and the fashion fire—and this time, she really set Chicago ablaze!The former WNBA rookie sensation with the Chicago Sky left fans—and probably Nick Cannon himself—in awe with her latest TV appearance. The show, filmed in the Windy City, boasted a star-studded lineup with big names like Rick Ross, Waka Flocka, and G Herbo. But let’s be real—Angel Reese is the one who turned heads, dropped jaws, and made people wish they had her wardrobe.The Outfit that Broke the Internet—AgainWhen Reese hit the stage, Chicago lost its collective mind. Strutting in a bold, two-piece blue outfit that could stop traffic, she paired her look with chestnut-colored boots that screamed, “I know I look good, and you know it too.” Oh, and those shorts? Let’s just say they didn’t leave much to the imagination. Reese knew exactly what she was doing—flaunting her style and personality like a boss. If fashion were a sport, she’d be the MVP.And because Reese is a triple-threat (baller, fashionista, and, apparently, rapper?), she didn’t just stand there looking pretty. No, she jumped right into a rap battle with Nick Cannon, delivering lines with the kind of confidence that says, “I just played an entire WNBA season, and this is child’s play.”Instagram vs. Reality? Not for ReeseFor anyone who follows Reese on Instagram (and if you don’t, what are you even doing?), this level of fierceness is nothing new. Not long before her Wild ‘N Out debut, Reese had already blown up the ‘Gram with a set of leopard-print see-through pants that were so extra, they practically came with a warning label. Even rapper Latto couldn’t help but slide into the comments with, “Dam ma, do fries come w that shake?” Let’s be honest, we were all thinking it.Angel Reese isn’t just an athlete—she’s a full-on celebrity in the making. She’s the kind of player who’s as comfortable in front of a camera as she is dunking on her opponents. And as for the rest of us? Well, we’re just here for the ride, trying to keep up with her next move, whether it’s a game-winning shot or a game-stealing outfit.A Star On and Off the CourtReese has never been shy about her love for the spotlight. Remember when she rolled into a game with former teammate Kysre Gondrezick and Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown? Yeah, that’s right—she’s got connections. She’s not just playing ball; she’s playing chess, moving across sports and entertainment with ease. One day, she’s crossing up Caitlin Clark in the WNBA, and the next, she’s stealing scenes on prime-time TV.And let’s not forget her rookie battle with Clark. If you thought that was intense, just wait until Reese unleashes her next season on the
