Cole Anthony Will Apparently Fine Anyone Who Talks To Mo Bamba During His First Game Back In Orlando
Wednesday night’s NBA slate includes a pretty fun game atop the Eastern Conference, as the Philadelphia 76ers made their way down to Orlando to take on the Magic. Both teams currently sit in the top-4 of the East and have aspirations of playing a lot of basketball once the postseason rolls around, and Wednesday is the first time all season that the two sides are going up against one another.
Report: Russell Wilson Expects That The Broncos Will Cut Him After The Season
The Denver Broncos swung for the fences last offseason when it acquired Russell Wilson and, eventually, signed him to a contract extension worth up to $245 million. It was quite the statement of intent from Denver, which gave up a ton to acquire one of the best quarterbacks of his generation, but things haven’t worked out as anyone hoped, as the Broncos went 5-12 last year and currently sit at 7-8 with an outside shot of making the postseason.
Is Offset Dropping New Music?
Offset rewarded everyone for their patience in October. He finally released Set It Off, his sophomore solo LP and followup to 2019’s Father Of 4. The album was well-received, making Uproxx’s “Best Album Of 2023” list and peaking at No. 5 on the Billboard 200. Unfortunately, headlines have not been about Offset’s music since early December, overtaken by salacious rumors and Cardi B, his wife of five years, confirming she had “been single for a minute now.”
Key Glock Set Off A Joke Spree By Paying Respect To The Inventor Of Glock Handguns, AKA ‘The OG Glock’
On Wednesday, December 27, Glock confirmed the death of its namesake, Gaston Glock, on its website’s homepage. The Austrian inventor was 94 years old. Several reputed outlets, such as ABC, Reuters, and The New York Times, offered detailed obituaries. But many people were more interested in Key Glock‘s reaction.
Trump Furiously Denied ‘Bullying’ His Way Into That ‘Home Alone 2’ Cameo That Doesn’t Play So Hot These Days
It’s the holidays, which means Home Alone and its near-copycat sequel Home Alone 2 have been in heavy rotation for the last handful of weeks. But the latter has a sight more disturbing than the part where poor Daniel Stern gets nails shot into his face: Donald J. Trump. (At least he loves it.) Recently the film’s director, Chris Columbus, once again talked about how that cameo only came about because the future 45th president demanded it or he wouldn’t let them film in the glorious Plaza Hotel, which he then owned. Now, of course, Trump is furiously denying that.
Are Chloe Bailey And Tyga Dating?
According to TMZ, “The two music stars were spotted leaving the Bird Streets Club in WeHo Tuesday night for a sweet meetup … Tyg’s carrying 2 bags of candy as he headed to his car. Chloe was all smiles — likely anticipating the treats ahead — as she slid into the front passenger seat of T-Raww’s whip before they jetted off into the moonlight.”

Barack Obama’s Favorite Movies Of 2023 Include ‘Oppenheimer,’ ‘The Holdovers,’ ‘Past Lives,’ Plus Some Films He Produced
Even when he was president of the United States of America, Barack Obama, like those before him, finds time to kick back and watch some movies. He has pretty good taste, too. He’ll enjoy some blockbusters, like last year’s Top Gun: Maverick. But he’s mostly into the brainier fare, the kind of cinema that edifies as well as entertains. He even drops his own list of favorite movies every year. So what did the 44th president dig in 2023? Mostly what you’d expect, plus some movies that he helped usher into existence.
SNX: The Nike Kobe 4 Protro Gift Of Mamba — The Only Sneaker Drop You Need To Care About This Week
Welcome to SNX DLX, your weekly roundup of the best sneakers to hit the internet. And this week, “best sneakers” really just means “best sneaker” because we’re at the end of the year and the sneaker drops have ceased until 2024, with one exception. And...
Are Cheesecake Factory’s Cheesecakes Frozen Or Fresh?
The menu at Cheesecake Factory is the stuff of legends. At 250+ dishes, there isn’t a single restaurant across the American landscape that even comes close to the amount of variety that can be had at there. It’s the only restaurant that attempts to cater to everyone and for the most part, jokes aside, it does a damn good job at fulfilling that mission. A couple of years back we ranked the 25 best dishes and still only managed to scratch the surface of what’s available (we’ve also ranked all 35 cheesecakes).
John Fetterman Wants James Carville To ‘Shut The F*ck Up’ About Biden’s 2024 Chances
Is Joe Biden okay? If the 2024 election was held today, he might not be. In some polls the current president is lagging behind a former president, namely probable dictator Donald J. Trump. His approval numbers haven’t been great, despite a strong economy. Maybe it’s time to worry. On the other hand, the 2024 election isn’t being held today. Heck, it’s still 2023, at least for a few more days. Besides, polls aren’t always reliable. Remember the failed “red wave” of last year’s election? Perhaps, for now, we can chill. That’s what one prominent Democrat is advising, however bluntly.
Aaron Gordon Will Take Some Time Away From The Nuggets After ‘Serious Dog Bites’
The Denver Nuggets will be without the services of Aaron Gordon for an undetermined period of time.

‘I Had Never Done A Film’: Oprah Winfrey Fondly Recalls The Time Steven Spielberg Yelled At Her
Oprah Winfrey and Drew Barrymore have a couple big things in common. They’re both talk show veterans who can also act. And they’ve both worked for Steven Spielberg. For Barrymore, E.T. was her second film. For Winfrey, The Color Purple was her screen debut. Alas, while Spielberg went above and beyond for young Drew, even making it seem like E.T. was actually a living, breathing extraterrestrial, he was a little harsh to Winfrey, at least on her first day.
Bam Adebayo Addressed His Story About Udonis Haslem Saying ‘F*ck Bill Russell’ Before A Heat-Celtics Game
In recent years, the Miami Heat and the Boston Celtics have always seemed to get in each other’s way. While the two franchises have long been powers in the Eastern Conference, Miami and Boston have met up in the conference finals in three of the last four years, with the Heat coming out on top twice.
Are Apple Watches Banned In The US?
Apple ran into a bit of trouble this fall in regards to its Apple Watch Ultra 2 and Apple Watch Series 9 devices. It dates back to October when the US International Trade Commission ruled that Apple violated Masimo’s patent in its Apple Watch products. The exact violation is with Masimo’s pulse oximeter patent, which uses light-based technology to read blood oxygen levels. The ruling left 60 days for President Biden to review it before the ban went into place. Biden did not object to the ruling, and it was expected that the ban would go into place on December 26. That is, until the US Appeals Court stepped in.
Are Cardi B And Offset Back Together?
Over the past few weeks, Cardi B has not been holding back from making it clear that she and Offset split up. Not only has she been out twerking to a song titled “F My Baby Daddy,” but she also didn’t hesitate to call him out on social media either.

‘The Color Purple’ Screenwriter Explains The Meaning Behind The ‘Perfect’ Whoopi Goldberg Cameo
In the 1985 version of The Color Purple, Whoopi Goldberg portrayed Cellie, a role which secured her an Oscar nom. For the 2023 remake, the crew wanted Goldberg to be a part of the production, though they didn’t know exactly how to incorporate her into the story, and they very well couldn’t just have an episode of The View playing on some TV in the background.
Ariana Grande Continued To Tease Her Upcoming Seventh Album With Mysterious Photos And Video Clips: ‘See You Next Year’
At long last, Ariana Grande‘s new musical era is finally upon us. Today (December 27), the singer took to social media to tease her upcoming seventh album. On Instagram, Grande shared a carousel of photos and video clips, signaling the beginning of a new era. In the carousel are pictures of Grande in studio sessions with collaborators, a muted video of her mother, Joan, dancing to what may be new music, a lip kit from her R.E.M. beauty collection, featuring a picture of her own lips, and a handwritten note reading “see you next year.”
A ‘Wheel Of Fortune’ Contestant Reveals What The Heck She Was Thinking With The ‘Worst Guess Ever’
If there’s a Mount Rushmore of bad Wheel of Fortune guesses (there really should be), “The British Ogre” is on it. During a recent episode of the long-running game show, contestant Gishma Tabari attempted to solve the following puzzle: “TH_ _RITI_S _GR_E.” The correct answer was “The Critics Agree,” but for whatever reason (maybe because she was thinking about a Mr. Bean/Shrek crossver?), Tabari instead went with “The British Ogre.” Twice! Even host Pat Sajak was taken aback.
