@brandonburnettt @TheSteinLine Slovenians are clearly healthier in the head than Americans based on these comments

@TheSteinLine Oh boy. I guarantee Slovenia will take this well and not blame anyone… 😬

The Lakers' Luka Dončić announced tonight via Instagram that he will not play for Slovenia's national team this summer in FIBA World Cup qualifying to spend as much offseason time as possible with his two daughters as he continues to try to secure joint custody.

@FortyCal12 @DraftExpress All they have to do is acknowledge where the news came from

@DraftExpress You expect them to not report transfer portal news? 😂😂😂😂 wtf are we talking about man

Posted this at 9:55. On3 at 10:01. Wash, rinse, repeat for the umpteenth time. Since yesterday, dozens of reporters have reached out privately, saying they deal with the same thing constantly. Most are afraid to call them out publicly. I'm not.

@DraftExpress @DraftExpress NCAA have any concerns about this holding up in court?

Big implications, not just for international players but Americans too. Many US families are now reclassing down in 9th grade to arrive at college later, often after an extra prep year. Several American freshmen turned 20 before playing a college game. Huge downstream effects.

Numbers don't lie...

Two coaches. Two completely different styles. One championship stage. Dan Hurley and Dusty May couldn’t appear more different. Hurley is loud, fiery, and unapologetically intense. He coaches with passion on full display—every possession, every call, every moment. May is calm, measured, and composed. He leads with poise—steady, deliberate, and rarely rattled. One is expressive and animated. The other is reserved and calculated. And yet… both are elite. Both are brilliant tacticians. Both are masterful recruiters. Both have built championship cultures. And most importantly—both LOVE their players… and their players love them right back. That’s the lesson. There is no ONE way to lead. Not in basketball. Not in business. Not in life. Leadership isn’t about copying someone else’s style. It’s about owning your style. Your personality. Your strengths. Your voice. Because authenticity builds trust. And trust builds teams that win. Don’t try to lead like Hurley. Don’t try to lead like May. Lead like you.

Dan Hurley on the two personas every head coach must master: The Jockey 🏇, and the Corner Man. 🥊 In practice — you are the jockey. You push. You challenge. You demand more than they think they have. You stretch them past comfort so execution becomes inevitable. On game night — you become the corner man. You steady. You simplify. You remind them who they are. Confidence replaces correction. Preparation is where you build them. Performance is where you believe in them.

Dusty May has taken Michigan from 8-24 overall and 3-17 in the Big Ten to the national title in just two years.

Dusty!!!! LFG!!! @CoachDustyMay

@Coach_Hickey5 So the solution is don't pay them $500k and then let them go work a desk job for $75k to avoid the depression of having had but lost it? How about just require financial education classes?

Ding. Ding. Ding. It’s not the top kids that this system will fail. It’s the kids who make $500k and then $600k. They graduate, their careers sputter out and then go to get an office job and make $75k. What are they going to do then. The ncaa won’t care…

35 years ago today.. ONE LAST DANCE 😢🔥 Larry Bird vs MJ… the final battle. Celtics take it 135-132 in DOUBLE OT 💥 Bird: 34 PTS | 15 REB | 8 AST MJ: 37 PTS | 7 REB | 9 AST Can’t help but miss those epic legend vibes.. x.com/CelticsOTD/sta…

I love Dan Hurley as a coach, he's one of my favorites (so was Coach Knight) but we all realize this stuff is going to come to a head eventually don't we? There's no way this type of behavior doesn't come back to bite him at some point ... right?? Can we all agree??

@GregGumby @DCitySportsNews @TheHoopHerald Yea even I'm like this is Purdue lol

@DCitySportsNews @TheHoopHerald You have a coach in your own conf. who’s been coaching 7+ footers in a low post-heavy system for over a decade straight, and is graduating his All American post scorer after graduating another 2x NPOY post scorer, but you think Michigan is the obvious choice? I have bad news….

This 7’2 Demon is now in the transfer portal Should be a long line

Love to hear a former player give Doc Rivers his props

@RP3natural Man he was so so good coming out of college, everyone's journey has a purpose though.

Enjoying some G-League action tonight in Portland. I love watching this league because you can see the hunger in everybody’s eyes. Personal stories per person. Markelle Fultz still has some slither in his game. Former number 1 pick. God bless his journey. 🙏🏽

@UCHOOPS The definition of it!

Former NBA All-Star Jamal Mashburn has built a massive post-retirement business empire valued at roughly $500 million, owning over 100 franchises as of 2026. His diversified portfolio includes 40 Papa John's, 38 Outback Steakhouses, Dunkin' Donuts locations, and multiple luxury car dealerships---That is F-U money

Mashburn dresses like he has f you money on the set... like he had his agent put in the contract '2.1 My presence is a present'

@UnethicalHero @ThisIsJay216 They don't man, just bc someone makes up a ranking doesn't mean it's legitimate. The only age where most legitimate scouts might be aware of all the top talent in the world and be able to accurately rank them is high school & that's shaky & political.

@ThisIsJay216 Why are 4th graders gettin ranked

#1 4th grader in the 🌍 from Cleveland, Ohio Jordan Early Jr. dribbling a tennis ball 🎾 like a basketball 🏀 This is impressive 🤯🤯🤯🤯 Instagram: Ballislifeliljay 🔥

@CJMooreHoops @tyler_rucker Glad you finally got this done fam! Great work

I’ve thought Darryn Peterson needed to share his story. People would understand if they knew what really happened. On Friday, I got him to share about the day he ended up in the hospital and how that’s hung over his time at KU. His story (free to read): nytimes.com/athletic/71274…
