Soon 1) Leon Black will testify about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein and 2) Adam Silver will deliver results from the Clippers' investigation by law firm Wachtell Lipton. Small world: Leon Black and Apollo Global have been repeated Wachtell Lipton clients.

Had the chance to speak with Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla and watch him train with the great @Eric_XCMMA. Really fascinating to hear how much MMA has influenced the way he coaches. He’s clearly put in the work himself. Far more than just a fan of the sport. Hard to admit as a Knicks fan, but props where they're due.

@TrueHoop Playing 75% of a season on average the last 8 years is a wasted contract? Looks like half the league is in trouble

LeBron's the best player of all time. But signing a 41-year-old who has averaged 60 games over the last 8 seasons quite likely reduces your odds of winning a title. He's very high risk to miss time, and teams with wasted contracts don't contend. truehoop.com/p/no-wasted-ro…

@Biyombonesaw No chatbot wrote anything. The point is common sense. He's at a high risk of being out injured. And what we are only just learning is that teams that dedicate roster spots to wasted contracts take a real hit to their title chances.

@TrueHoop I don't think YOU read the story you had a chatbot write for you, because there's nothing in there that contradicts what I wrote

@TrueHoop How hard were they on the NBA owner who gave car dealerships to his two best players?

Tomorrow, Jay Clayton will ask the Senate to put him in charge of U.S. intelligence. The very next day, Leon Black is due before Congress under subpoena over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Clayton chaired Black’s Apollo until taking over SDNY, then was put in charge of the Epstein investigation.

Jay Clayton, who spent years in senior leadership at Apollo, the firm founded by Leon Black, went on to become the US Attorney for SDNY, directly overseeing key aspects of the Epstein case despite Black’s extensive financial relationship with Epstein, and has been nominated by Trump to serve as Director of National Intelligence.

Theory: NBA lawyers right now are a little bummed they wrote this CBA rules on cap circumvention so well.

@C2_Cooper Often the play seems to be: billionaires do whatever they want (like say, shove Kyle Lowry). And if enough people get upset for long enough, once in a while you make a show of discipline. Just made this free: truehoop.com/p/privilege-ai…

@TrueHoop If they don’t, and *if* the GTJ deal is what it looks like, would they be tough on the Bucks?

Who gets paid in the NBA is changing right now; older and injury-prone players are worth less. The reason is a good one: wasted contracts doom title chances. Free for all: a deep dive into the steep cost of big salaries for unproductive players. truehoop.com/p/no-wasted-ro…

Russian opposition figure Igor Eidman claimed that Lindsey Graham may have been killed by Kremlin intelligence services According to sociologist Eidman, two factors point in this direction — the timing and the location. Moscow had a motive: Graham actively advocated for increased pressure on Russia and support for Ukraine. He had also recently said that Trump supported his bill introducing new “hellish sanctions” against the Russian Federation. He was considered the most pro-Ukrainian politician in the U.S. president’s circle. He promoted military assistance for Kyiv, including Tomahawk missiles, and lobbied for security guarantees for Ukraine. Eidman claims that the Kremlin may have viewed the senator as one of the people influencing Trump’s shift in position and his departure from his previous approach toward Russia. As a second argument, he pointed to Graham’s trip to Ukraine. According to the sociologist’s theory, a possible poisoning could have occurred during the visit, for example, through the use of a slow-acting substance. He suggested that Russian intelligence services could have used remaining agent networks in Ukraine to carry out such an operation.

The death of Senator Graham was linked to Russia in the U.S American right-wing activist Laura Loomer called for an investigation into the death of Senator Lindsey Graham, suggesting that Russia or Iran could be involved. She linked the senator’s death to the fact that shortly before it, Graham had advocated in Ukraine for tougher sanctions against Russia. Loomer also recalled that Russian ideologue Alexander Dugin had previously called for his elimination. “Did Russia just kill an American senator?” Loomer wrote. It was previously reported that Graham’s cause of death was cardiac arrest.
