LaVar Ball responds and goes off on Nick Wright for getting personal and calling his son LaMelo Ball a “clown,” and also calls out Erik Spoelstra for making excuses after losing to the Hornets.
Shams: LaMelo Ball’s play against Bam Adebayo on Tuesday has been upgraded to a Flagrant Foul after league review.
Ball is being fined $60K total for his trip of Adebayo and cursing postgame.
@ZO2_ Anyone defending an analyst over an actual ball player is nuts and just comes to show how cooked this generation is. Would love to see Nick go out and try to ball.
@TheTruth8240 Dumbass coach throws his other players under the bus in front of the media but glazes bronny up. Always acting tough but still afraid of bron lol
@Deahhh18@BrickCenter_ Lol not even the point dumbass. He definitely can score and drop even 40 but would alywas miss the big ones lol. He missed at least 2 go-ahead baskets the last 2 mins and blames the refs? There's a reason Amen wanted to bust his head
@UnderdogNBA As a Heat fan, there wasn't enough there. Bam flopped. Bam got injured on said flop. That's on him. Next time don't try to sell shit and stay on your feet hoe 🤷🏾♂️
@TruckVisor@iam_johnw In 23 years, I've never seen people line up or camp out in front of stores or wait for online drops just to secure themselves a pair of lebums.
Erik Spoelstra on LaMelo Ball tripping Bam Adebayo:
“I don't think it's cute, I don't think it's funny, it's a dangerous play ... He should be penalized for that ... Somebody's got to see that. He should've been thrown out of the game for that."
The most fouls drawn in the 2025-26 NBA season:

Mikal Bridges will start, then sub out after tip-off Sunday, per coach Brown.
Bridges has played in 637 consecutive games, the longest active streak in the NBA.
@UnderdogNBA A lot of idiots hating on Mikal lol. Dude has not missed a single game in his NBA career. No way he's going to miss 1 just because his team wants him to rest. Pretty sure he would've played 30 mins if it was just up to him.
@kingopp_mike@UnderdogNBA Just say you don't know how DPOY is determined. For starters, it doesn't just default to the league's leading shot blocker lol
Victor Wembanyama on if he'd be surprised if he wasn't unanimous Defensive Player of the Year:
"Yes. Yes, I would."
There has never been a unanimous DPOY in NBA history.
