LeBron James spoke candidly about watching his son, Bronny James, develop as an NBA player alongside him on the Los Angeles Lakers. Bronny has played his best basketball lately, scoring a career-high 39 points in the G League on Monday and putting up his NBA-high of 17 points last week. After receiving criticism for getting drafted out of USC despite seldom starting and averaging just 4.8 points per game, Bronny is beginning to make his own mark. “For me as a dad, it doesn’t matter if he never scores ever,” LeBron said on the ‘Pat McAfee Show.’ “For me as…
The Lakers have surprisingly fallen into a three-game losing streak, and this late slump towards the end of the 2024-25 season is raising eyebrows about some major issues the team is facing. We rank the top five issues from them so far. Just a week ago, the Los Angeles Lakers looked like a legitimate title contender, riding the dominance of LeBron James and Luka Doncic while Austin Reaves put together the best season of his career. Now, after three straight losses, alarm bells are ringing. This isn’t just a bad week; it’s a warning sign. If the Lakers don’t correct…
It is the week of the King! If coming back to the court against the Bulls earlier this week after 7 games out, though on a losing cause, was one, then wait for the bombshell to drop! The most recent return is the comeback of LeBron James’ podcast Mind The Game, which will premiere this April. And what better a day to choose than April Fool’s Day? Jokes aside, and every context to be on a serious note, the Lakers legend will sit with someone special this time, and it is not Lakers head coach JJ Redick this time. Any…
Well, now, Anthony, the Giants have landed Russell Wilson—and I do think it underscores the overall philosophy the team is taking at the position. Simply put, if they aren’t going to spend $35 million, or whatever it might cost to bring in Aaron Rodgers, then this is the next best plan. The Giants are raising their floor and building in options at the position. Russell Wilson isn’t what he was, but is better than what the team was putting out there last year. It’s possible Jameis Winston winds up being a better option, and it’s O.K. if he is. The…
With the end of the season fast approaching, AC Milan will have to make some big decisions regarding players that are currently on the fringes. This morning’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) speaks of ‘eleven games for eleven players’. In the final part of the season, nine league games plus the double Coppa Italia derby, there is an entire team playing for their future. Some in particular will have to prove themselves to be up to Milan. The young Alex Jimenez for example, judged too good for Milan Futuro but not quite ready to take the place…
CEO Giorgio Furlani has decided that he wants Antonio Conte to be the new head coach of AC Milan from next season, a report claims. According to Quotidiano Sportivo, Conte is the first choice candidate to take over from Sergio Conceicao. Massimiliano Allegri has not been contacted but remains the second choice, while Cesc Fabregas comes after the two Italians. In the week leading up to the Napoli-Milan game, there could well be a new added sub-plot. To be clear, nothing will be done now and only once the season has concluded can the wheels begin to turn, while trying…
The rivalry between the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers is one of the greatest in the history of sports, dating back to the 1950s. Now, it seems to continue to this day. In a recent interview, Celtics’ star Jaylen Brown revealed that he doesn’t think anyone is close to touching Michael Jordan’s GOAT status, not even modern day legend LeBron James. Meanwhile, there has been an update on fellow superstar Jayson Tatum’s ankle injury that he suffered against the Sacramento Kings. While it seemed scary initially, Tatum was later seen without crutches or a boot and was only limping…
The Los Angeles Lakers are facing a $112 million LeBron James decision after the NBA announced its salary cap for the 2025/26 season, with teams awarded a 10 percent increase. The NBA salary cap will rise to $154.6M next season, per ESPN, and the Lakers have superstar James, 40, on a contract that includes a player option for 2025-26 and a no-trade clause following a two-year extension last July. James could opt out and be eligible for an extension next season, which could take up over 34 percent of the Lakers’ 2025/26 salary cap. James would be more likely to…
Zlatan Ibrahimovic could be the ideal man to replace Edu Gaspar as Arsenal’s new sporting director, says ex-Gunners midfielder Anders Limpar. Ex-Arsenal and Sweden midfielder Anders Limpar has urged the Gunners to sign AC Milan icon Zlatan Ibrahimovic as the man to succeed Edu Gaspar in the sporting director role, labelling the potential acquisition a ‘dream’ and singing the praises of the former Sweden international’s character and mentality. In November 2024, Edu announced the shock decision to resign from his role as Arsenal’s sporting director, with the Spaniard moving to take up a role with Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis.…
While the Dallas Mavericks were in the middle of receiving a 128-113 beating at the hands of the New York Knicks, I know you were probably wondering what Mavs CEO Rick Welts was thinking. Well, it must’ve been our lucky day because wouldn’t you believe it, we were blessed by Welts’ presence on the Mavs broadcast for a rare appearance. However, if you were hoping for something insightful or useful from the so-called “arena czar”, the best I can do for you is the following word salad. What the hell is that even supposed to mean? I’m willing to give…
