In yet another loss for the Los Angeles Lakers, mostly due to the lack of LeBron James in the starting lineup, it was reported that the team was facing even greater obstacles as it was revealed that Anthony Davis was actually quite ill on the day of the match against the New York Knicks. Just a few weeks prior, AD was also battling another illness and actually had to throw up in the middle of the game. Yesterday, the Lakers lost to the Knicks 106-100 and Lakers’ reporter Mike Trudell said that it was part in due to the fact that AD still made the decision to go on the court despite not feeling well. He said, “Davis basically had to sit in his room all day, hoping his fever would break. He arrived late to the arena, and said it was almost like AAU where he just showed up and had to start pl...

After nine seasons and an NBA championship win with the Toronto Raptors, Kyle Lowry officially started the 2021-22 season as a Miami Heat. The Philadelphia-native recently spoke to The Undefeated regarding his title as “Mr. Raptor” after giving all he got to the organization and the city. Lowry is set to make his first return back to Toronto in February 2022. The guard anticipates that the game will be emotional, “I’m a man’s man, but I know I’m going to be a little bit sensitive and crying that day. I don’t know. I might hold it in. I’ve talked to [former Raptors teammate] DeMar [DeRozan] about it. But it’s one of them days where I know it’s going to be a lot of love for me and me giving love back, it’s just going to be interesting how it goes down because I don’t know what to expect.” Lo...

LeBron James and Isaiah Stewart are now each suspended following a bloody grapple during the Los Angeles Lakers home game against the Detroit Pistons.

Sunday’s NBA match between the Detroit Pistons and the Los Angeles Lakers has resulted in a flagrant foul 2 — unnecessary and excessive contact committed by a player against an opponent — and ejection for LeBron James, two technical fouls and an ejection for Isaiah Stewart, and a technical foul for Russell Westbrook. This is just James’ second ejection in his 19-year career. The altercation between James and Stewart ignited when James struck Stewart in the face leaving the corner of his eye bloody — according to the team, this required five stitches. Reacting to the hit, a furious Stewart charged over to James where a potential fight almost broke out. With most of the team on the court separating the two, Stewart broke free several times in an attempt to chase down LeBron and even Westbroo...

Following one of Manchester United‘s most torturous periods exacerbated by a surprising 1-4 defeat at Watford yesterday, Old Trafford manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is now officially stepping down as manager. “Ole will always be a legend at Manchester United and it is with regret that we have reached this difficult decision,” an official statement from the team reads. “While the past few weeks have been disappointing, they should not obscure all the work he has done over the past three years to rebuild the foundations for long-term success.” The statement continued to pay tribute to Solskjaer’s tenure at the Red Devils both as a player and as a manager. While no successor has been named for the time being, rumors have surfaced over recent weeks about the potential hiring of Zinedine Zidane, ...

Conor McGregor recently took to Twitter to answer some fan questions. Inevitably, fans were curious about his last fight against Dustin Poirier which led to a heavily injured McGregor. Since his loss against Poirier, McGregor has been rehabbing his leg and anticipating his imminent return to the ring. In a recent Twitter Q&A session, McGregor detailed what actually happened to his leg. It seems that McGregor was actually aware of the fact that his leg was not in the best condition going into his fight. A Twitter user asked if his damaged leg was what caused his injury in the fight with Poirier to which McGregor responded, “Same leg, same spot. I attribute it to why I wasn’t in as much shock as Chris/Anderson where. I knew something may happen in advance. Chris was upset with my quote. ...

According to a tweet by NBA insider Marc Stein, the Dallas Mavericks are setting up to retire Dirk Nowitzki’s No. 41 jersey at the start of next year during a home game against the Golden State Warriors. The 14-time NBA-All Star gave an emotional speech during his official retirement back in early 2019 and is now possibly getting officially embedded in the franchise’s history. The 7-foot power forward is the only player to ever play for one team for 21 seasons with 51,368 minutes recorded and was sixth on the list of the NBA scoring leaders when he retired. Just last month he was established in the league’s 75th Anniversary Team and is among the likes of Clyde Drexler, Magic Johnson, Bob Pettit and Oscar Robertson as one of the five ambassadors for the monumental season. Even without being...
