The Los Angeles Lakers are making strategic moves as they gear up for the playoffs, with reports indicating that Jordan Goodwin’s two-way contract will soon be converted into a standard NBA deal. This decision comes as the team continues its impressive run, winning seven straight games and 18 of their last 21. To make room for Goodwin, the Lakers are likely to waive either Cam Reddish or Alex Len, with Reddish being the more probable candidate. Jordan Goodwin, a 26-year-old guard, has quickly become a valuable asset for the Los Angeles Lakers since joining the team in early February. Over…
AC Milan head coach Sergio Conceicao hopes to finish the season with dignity, and a report claims he had a long meeting with the squad. According to La Repubblica, there are still at least 13 games left this season and potentially one more in the event of getting to the Coppa Italia final, but many fans are already thinking about the future because of how miserable 2024-25 has been. Milan sit ninth in the table and they are out of Europe having been eliminated by Feyenoord. Now, a rescue mission is needed to avoid a vertical collapse and to try…
LeBron James added another unfathomable milestone to his career on Tuesday, surpassing 50,000 career points. He did so on his first basket of the night, a 3-pointer he made thanks to a wonderful pass by his new superstar teammate Luka Dončić. The Lakers went on to win the game easily defeating the Pelicans 136-115. After the win, Luka was asked about LeBron’s achievement and gave a fun response. “It’s amazing watching him do this stuff at this age, it’s just unbelievable,” Luka said. “Like 50K points, I can’t even explain how insane that is. He might get to 70K, you…
The 49ers starting strong safety the past three seasons will be a free agent in a few days, and Sports Illustrated’s Matt Verderame and Gilberto Manzano project him to receive a two-year, $25 million contract offer, which is likely more than the 49ers would be willing to pay him. Why 49ers HC Kyle Shanahan Was Wrong to Skip the NFL Combine Talanoa Hufanga most likely has priced himself out of Santa Clara. The 49ers starting strong safety the past three seasons will be a free agent in a few days, and Sports Illustrated’s Matt Verderame and Gilberto Manzano project him…
The Los Angeles Lakers pulled off arguably the most shocking trade in NBA history when they acquired Luka Doncic from the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for Anthony Davis last month. Though the Mavericks initially approached the Lakers about the trade, the Lakers had their own motivations for going through with the blockbuster deal. Outside of the obvious—acquiring a generational talent in Doncic—Lakers owner Jeanie Buss opened up that the Lakers were not much different of a team than the one that has consistently lost to the Denver Nuggets in the postseason in recent years. “We gave up a lot to…
AC Milan are hoping to make a decision on their new sporting director soon, and at the moment it seems that Igli Tare is clearly leading the race. Today’s edition of Tuttosport (via MilanPress) talks about Tare and the possible choice of the Milan leadership, outlining the reasons why the former Lazio director has convinced the club to at least partly entrust him with the summer rebuild. The meeting in London with Gerry Cardinale and Zlatan Ibrahimovic showed a ‘strong man, lover of the pitch and life on the pitch, and talent scout’. In the past he had already been…
Carlo Pellegatti believes that Santiago Gimenez has gone missing after a fantastic start to life at AC Milan, and because of tactical reasons. Gimenez was the signing that drew the most excitement during the winter transfer window as Milan finally decided to invest in a striker, agreeing a deal worth at least €32m with Feyenoord for the Mexican. He certainly hit the ground running, too, with a couple of goals in his first two Serie A starts plus one against his old club in the Champions League. However, barring an assist for Rafael Leao’s goal in Bologna, the last three…
Mike Maignan is expected to renew his contract with AC Milan this year, but former goalkeeper and legend Christian Abbiati has compared the situation to Gianluigi Donnarumma’s. It has been a difficult year for everyone at Milan, and as a result, the scope is more magnified on certain players. However, for the key three, the pressure is clearly on and the attention on their performances is staggering. The slightest foot wrong is criticised, and unfortunately, they have often done so. However, the most critical issues, you could argue, have involved Maignan, who has seemingly regressed since Sergio Conceicao’s appointment. Nevertheless,…
The slogan, if you’re interested, is simple: United States of Milan. Giorgio Furlani traveled to the United States yesterday, where today he will meet with Gerry Cardinale. It seems like the club’s general assembly: the owner and the CEO coming together to discuss the team and its future. Milan is struggling as rarely before in its recent history and faces difficult months ahead, with domestic rivals having pulled ahead. Inter, Napoli, Atalanta, and Juve hold a double-digit lead, and Milan is losing matches, confidence, and market value. This early March meeting has all the makings of a crucial turning point,…
The window has probably closed for AC Milan to sign Nuno Tavares from Lazio, and it, once again, is due to finances. However, attempts were made in January to sign the player. It is nothing new for Milan to miss out on players due to finances. Sometimes, the club get there too late, or perhaps even too early. Either way, it seems like the Tavares dream has probably faded, and once again, money is at the root. According to Corriere dello Sport, the Rossoneri attempted to make a move in January for the wing-back ‘before the corporate revolution’, as Milan…
