In the most recent episode of The Draymond Green Show, Steph Curry sat down with his Golden State Warriors teammate Draymond Green to discuss his thoughts on the prospect of playing with LeBron James. Last week, James named Curry on his show The Shop, as the one person he would like to play with currently in the NBA. After hearing this, Curry gave a response that raised eyebrows when he appeared to swiftly wipe the thought away with a simple response, “I’m good right now.” In his show, Green asked Curry to elaborate on why he would turn down the reason to play with one of the GOAT in basketball. Curry explained, “It is surreal because I will never be so far removed from this time when I was in Detroit playing in a Sweet 16 game and this dude was in his fourth or fifth season, and he’s comi...

The 6God himself has placed a substantial bid on the Golden State Warriors to take home the 2022 NBA Western Conference title. In a recent Instagram Story, Drake posted his bet on Stake.com, seemingly dropping a mere $200,000 USD on the Dubs to win in the West. This season, the Warriors have made exceptional headway led by Steph Curry and the return of Klay Thompson. Drake is putting his money where his mouth is, hoping that Curry, Thompson and Draymond Green will lead Golden State to the finals. Clutchpoints reports that Drake could potentially walk away with $1 million USD if they come out with the title. Perhaps with the very public push for the Warriors, Drake is hoping to see his hometown team, the Toronto Raptors face off against the Golden State Warriors one more time. The Raptors c...

The NBA has officially brought back its iconic script logo for the 2022 Finals. In a statement, NBA Chief Marketing Officer Kate Jhaveri said, “The NBA Finals serves as the culmination of our 75th Anniversary Season as we celebrate the league’s past, present and future. Highlighted by the return of our familiar Finals script font, back by popular demand, our new logo pays homage to our league’s history and looks forward to what’s ahead.” The logo has long been a familar symbol to fans across the world, with many fans associating the scripture with championship play. The leagues switched to a standard block letter logo within the last few years, which many fans have called a mundane and forgettbale graphic that did not do the NBA Finals justice. The scripture felt more upscale and indiciati...

New information has surfaced regarding Tom Brady‘s unretirement. In a recent article from The Boston Globe, Ben Volin reported that Brady initially did want to retire, but had much bigger plans in mind. Brady was slated to become a minority owner of the Miami Dolphins and was working on a deal to join the team’s front office. According to Volin, Brady’s role was said to be similar to Derek Jeter’s role with the Miami Marlins. The partnership would not have been surprising as the quarterback has had a longstanding relationship with the team owner, Stephen Ross. Ross was a large donor and booster and Brady’s alma mater, the University of Michigan. However, the grand plans were placed on a halt when Brian Flores filed a lawsuit the day Brady announced his retirement. The lawsuit called out NF...

The Los Angeles Lakers have officially fired Frank Vogel as head coach after a disappointing 33-49 season. Vogel was slated to be under contract until next season, but appears that the now-former head coach has been removed from the roster. On Monday night, Rob Pelink declined to comment on the moves made regarding Vogel stating, “Today is not going to be a day of finger-pointing and unwinding all the specific reasons. We just felt organizationally, at the highest level, it was time for a new voice…That’s not to say anything against the incredible accomplishments that Frank Vogel has had. He was a great coach here, and he’s going to go on to be a great coach somewhere else.” There is currently no rush to replace Vogel, though Pelinka mentions that their search will be “thorough and methodi...

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid has officially claimed the 2021-22 NBA scoring title. The Cameroon-born professional basketball player won the title over fierce competition including Milwaukee Bucks‘ Giannis Antetokounmpo and Los Angeles Lakers‘ LeBron James. While James was Embiid’s greatest competition for the title, he was unable to qualify this year due to a sprained ankle that led to a few misses this season. Embiid has become the center to claim the scoring title since Shaquille O’Neal in 1999-2000. He is also the first international player to lead the NBA in scoring, setting yet another record this season. Embiid, who is an MVP candidate, is also center who has averaged more than 30 points in a season since Moses Malone held the record in 1981-82. One thing that is certain is ...

Within the NBA has cemented himself as one of the best ball-handlers and point guards in the league. However, earlier this season, when the organization unveiled its NBA 75 ranking, Irving was noticeably left off the list. Since the announcement, fans far and wide questioned why this was the case. In October, HYPEBEAST reported that the seven-time All-Star and NBA Champion was supposedly left off the list, despite being one of the best contenders for the list. Fans were quick to point out that online press material was already prepared to announce Irving as one of the top 75, leaving many to wonder why he was no longer appointed. For the first time since the list has been unveiled Irving finally spoke out about the issue, “I think I’ll leave it to the conspiracy theorists. I think I was on...

Despite the Los Angeles Lakers being eliminated from the 2021-22 NBA playoffs, LeBron James is still making headlines with many wondering if he will stay or leave the team. The defeat was brought on by a Phoenix Suns win, marking the second season since James joined the Lakers that his team has missed the playoffs. Currently, King James is eligible to sign a two-year $97 million USD contract that would ensure his stay with the Lakers until 2025. When the Lakers won the 2020 NBA Championships, James signed a two-year extension worth $85 million USD, taking him to the 2023 season. Recently, James has been especially vocal about wanting to play with his son Bronny. Earlier this year, James made it very clear that he intends to play his final NBA season with Bronny. While he has aspirations fo...
