NBA veteran Tony Snell announced he’s been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.
Appearing on NBC’s Today Show Friday, Snell discussed both his diagnosis and his plans for the future. During the interview, Snell told Craig Melvin he always felt he was different.
“I was always independent growing up, always been alone,” Snell began. “I just couldn’t connect with people on the personal side of things.”

Would you look at that. LeBron James is being a sore loser again.
Apparently still salty after his Los Angeles Lakers got swept by the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals, LeBron is throwing shade at Nuggets coach Michael Malone.
It all started just before Denver’s championship parade Thursday, when Malone trolled LeBron on The Pat McAfee Show.
“Speaking of the Lakers, I just want you guys to know… this is breaking news: I’m thinking about retiring,” Malone joked — of course referring to LeBron James retirement rumors.

The arrest comes a month after Bob Huggins used an anti-gay slur during a radio appearance, putting him on thin ice with West Virginia’s decision-makers.

The 2023 U.S. Open is missing its feel-good story, but have no fear — Harris English could give that to golf fans this weekend.
