As the Los Angeles Lakers plan to develop Bronny James, head coach JJ Redick had a lightbulb go off during the Canada vs. USA Olympics exhibition.
Redick believes James could eventually develop into someone of the capacity of Lu Dort, who’s been one of the best perimeter defenders in the league since his arrival in 2019.
Redick revealed the comparison in an interview with Sirius XM Radio.
“We were at the Canada-USA basketball exhibition game,” Redick said. “And I turned to one of our assistant coaches during the game. And I said, ‘I think Lu Dort just single-handedly broke up the eighth possession...

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice will almost certainly face some type of suspension following his eventful offseason. Back in April, the wide receiver was responsible for a six-car crash after driving 119 miles per hour in a Lamborghini. The former second-round pick left the scene of the crime without checking in on the potentially injured civilians before eventually surrendering himself to the police. Shortly after this event, police investigated Rice for allegedly assaulting a photographer in a nightclub.

The NBA offseason continues and there is a lot of NBA news that continues to come out as the Olympics are gearing up.

Report: Former Thunder Russell Westbrook set to join Nuggets

The Nuggets–Russell Westbrook connection has come up so frequently and so solidly here in the 2024 NBA offseason that is almost a surprise to realize that they have not actually obtained him yet from the Clippers. But Westbrook is still, formally, in L.A., having opted in on the second year of his contract with the team, at $4 million.

Blockbuster 3-Team Trade Pitch Finally Helps Nuggets Land Russell Westbrook

With his departure from the 2024 Olympic team, Kawhi Leonard has been frequently discussed by the media. It’s not as though Leonard quit on his team; his right knee pained him, as it had for some time. However, Leonard would’ve been the perfect small forward for this US men’s basketball team. While the team will likely be fine regardless, Leonard’s lock-down defense and mid-range shooting would’ve been a stellar addition. This isn’t the first time that Leonard has missed significant games due to injuries, which begs the question: is it time for the Los Angeles Clippers to explore a Kawhi Leonard trade?

Annnnnd there it is. A move that had been rumored for the last few weeks is finally a done deal, and shockingly everyone involved comes away better? Danny Ainge decided to get into the mix and walked away with a pick swap for a player he was losing anyway in free agency (Kris Dunn). The Clippers get a younger, defensive minded secondary ball handler at a tradable salary number, and the Nuggets bring in the veteran bench/guard help that their roster desperately needed.

In professional wrestling, where faces and heels are critical to storytelling, Dominik Mysterio found his spot as one of the company’s top heels.

Since Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas went down with a left rib strain, it’s been murky waters about his return. The news came in late May that Casas was close to ramping up his rehab. Then, in late June, the 24-year-old was reportedly on the verge of regularly swinging in the cage. But neither materialized, and the first baseman is still left without a concrete timetable. However, recent predictions regarding Casas’ outlook shine a brighter light. The future for the ailing infielder is becoming less blurry.
