Conceicao insisted at yesterday’s Coppa final media preview that he hadn’t settled on several positions This pressure is part of Milan’s history. It’s normal in these big clubs. We must only focus on tomorrow and be ready,” Conceiçao said We must have the same attitude. We must be ready for many scenarios, knowing that we’ll face a strong team that we played a few days ago. We’ve prepared well, and we hope for a positive response On whether Luka Jovic or Santi Gimenez will start on the night, Conceicao was coy. He also stated: “I’m not saying it, I haven’t…
The league games have not been able to show us the differences between these two teams, with both teams winning a game each and the games themselves being rather even in scoreline. However, that all goes out of the window here. A cup final that means more than words do justice to both teams awaits, and both teams will probably give that little bit more, desperate for their own successes. So without further ado, it is better to jump straight into the potential deciders. The first major battle of the game involves Rafael Leao and Davide Calabria, who are far…
LeBron James found himself on the wrong end of Cavs Twitter after hyping up the Indiana Pacers’ Tyrese Haliburton, despite him sending the Cleveland Cavaliers crashing out of the NBA Playoffs. A 114-105 win on May 12 saw the Pacers move onto the Eastern Conference Finals at the expense of LeBron’s former team, who he played for between 2003-10; 2014-18 and also delivered an NBA championship Yet for the 40-year-old from Akron, 39.5 miles from Cleveland, there was no love lost on the night in the 4-1 series defeat as he found himself full of praise for Indiana’s All-Star guard.…
Even before they traded Anthony Davis and Max Christie to the Dallas Mavericks for Luka Doncic, the Los Angeles Lakers were thin at the center position. One way they attempted to plug that hole was by signing Trey Jemison III to a two-way contract in January. Jemison, 25, stands 6-foot-11 and weighs 270 pounds, and prior to coming to the Lakers organization, he had brief stints with the Washington Wizards, Memphis Grizzlies and New Orleans Pelicans organizations while going back and forth between the NBA and G League. He played his college ball at Clemson University and the University of…
The Los Angeles Lakers are in desperate need of a center this offseason, and they’re getting one in Bleacher Report’s latest mock draft for 2025. The Lakers will only have the 55th pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, and they’re predicted to select Australian Rocco Zikarsky with it. Zikarsky played for the Brisbane Bullets in the NBL for the last two seasons. After his first season with the Bullets, the 18-year-old was touted as a first-round pick in 2025, but his stock has now dipped. Zikarsky didn’t quite take the leap that you’d have expected in 2024-25, averaging 4.6 points,…
Former Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks point guard Nick Van Exel played 13 seasons in the NBA, during which he became one of the quickest and most explosive scoring and passing guards in the league. Van Exel quietly finished his career with one-year stints in Golden State, Portland and San Antonio as he wrapped things up with a 14.4 points per game career scoring average, his best scoring season coming in 2001-02 when he averaged 21.4 points per game with the Denver Nuggets. On Tuesday, Van Exel let loose with comments on what he characterized as a rise in…
In the ‘80s, Magic Johnson wasn’t just dominating the NBA — he was redefining it. Flashy passes, unmatched vision, and five championships made him the face of Showtime basketball. But off the court? Magic kept things classy. While other stars were jumping into Lambos and Corvettes, Magic cruised L.A. in a sleek, silver Mercedes-Benz 450 SE.
Arsenal pursuit of Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze has ignited excitement among fans, with recent reports suggesting the Gunners are keen to bolster their attacking options. The 26-year-old attacking midfielder, known for his flair, versatility, and eye for goal, could be the creative spark Mikel Arteta’s squad needs to compete at the highest level. Eze has been a standout performer for Palace, contributing 10 goals and 11 assists in 39 appearances this season. His ability to play centrally or drift wide makes him an ideal fit for Arsenal’s fluid attacking system. With Martin Ødegaard as the primary playmaker, Eze’s versatility could…
Almost exactly a year ago, Juventus parted company with Massimiliano Allegri in highly acrimonious circumstances just two days after winning the Coppa Italia. If recent reports are to be believed, Sergio Conceicao and AC Milan will also go their separate ways after Wednesday’s final against Bologna – no matter the result at the Stadio Olimpico. Defeat would obviously make the Portuguese’s exit inevitable. Conceicao may have a contract until 2026, but Milan reserve the right to cancel the agreement this summer, which would become something of a formality if the Rossoneri fail to take the edge off a calamitous Serie…
The Los Angeles Lakers made the first move to prepare for a post-LeBron James future this season by making a blockbuster trade for Luka Doncic. James, it seems, is likely to retire with the Lakers, although not for at least another season. Rather than link themselves to a trio of Doncic, James, and Austin Reaves, the Lakers are expected to make some moves this summer to build around Doncic, not James. On the other side of the Doncic trade, the Dallas Mavericks have opened their title window, as weird as that may seem. Anthony Davis is still a superstar, Klay…
