“Shai Gilgeous-Alexander deserves his two MVPs and he may be on a path to being one of the greatest players of all time. Full stop. That is true. What is also true, is that sometimes watching him play is agonizing. It is not fun.” —@Espngreeny sets the table for the debate 🍿

Underdog Sports received a cease and desist letter regarding a promotion that makes fun of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s efforts to draw fouls, per @TheAthletic “In a letter dated May 22, 2026 obtained by The Athletic, Eric Fishman of law firm ArentFox Schiff LLP, representing Gilgeous-Alexander, asked Underdog to: “permanently cease and desist from any and all use of Mr. Gilgeous-Alexander’s NIL in any and all media, including but not limited to your website (including the Unethical Hoops Website), apps, social media accounts, digital marketing and advertisements, promotional emails, push notifications, affiliate or influencer placements, and any physical goods including but not limited to the board game advertised on the Unethical Hoops Website.” (nytimes.com/athletic/73138…)

Mike Breen on SGA: "Does Shai sell calls sometimes? Absolutely, but so do 287 other players in the NBA… When they weren't a championship contender, nobody complained. They only complain now because they are winning.” (via @dpshow)
