Reigning NBA champion Nikola Jokic had his first-ever clash with Thunder rookie Chet Holmgren on Sunday night, and he offered some unique advice to the slim 21-year-old after the Nuggets’ 128–95 win.
Jokic was complimentary of Holmgren’s skillset, acknowledging the talent of the former No. 2 pick. But he advised the young center to add some weight, or as he rather comically put it, “be a little bit fatter.”
“He’s a really talented guy, but this is his first year.
The NCAA investigation into sign-stealing allegations against the Michigan football program has compelled the university to table a contract offer to coach Jim Harbaugh.
An extension for Harbaugh has been rumored for months. But that offer has now been rescinded, according to The Wall Street Journal. However, other outlets covering Michigan football, including the Detroit News, report that the school withdrew the contract just days after it was negotiated, upon news of the sign-stealing accusations becoming public on Oct. 19.
Tyson Bagent’s life has been moving pretty fast the past few weeks.
Just two weeks ago, Bagent was backing up Bears quarterback Justin Fields as Chicago looked to navigate their way out of a 1-5 start to the season. Undrafted out of Shepherd University, it’s safe to say that expectations weren’t too high for the Bears rookie this year.
But after Fields went down with an injury, it was up to Bagent to step into the starting role and lead the Bears himself.
Kirk Cousins left the Vikings’ 24-10 win over the Packers in the 2nd half, with a source telling ESPN’s Adam Schefter that the veteran quarterback has a torn Achilles.
Steelers receiver Diontae Johnson sounded off on the officiating after Pittsburgh’s loss to the Jaguars.
Titans rookie Will Levis joined Fran Tarkenton and Marcus Mariota as the only NFL quarterbacks to throw four touchdowns in their first career game.
Despite ineptitude on offense for the first 59-plus minutes, the Jets marched 58 yards on two plays in 23 seconds to force overtime and then beat the Giants.
The Warriors’ Chris Paul didn’t start Sunday’s game against the Rockets, the first time in his career that he has come off the bench.
File these under things we didn’t expect this season: The 49ers have a three-game losing streak, and the Chiefs no longer have a winning streak against the Broncos.
More upsets occurred in Week 8 of the NFL season, such as Kansas City losing to Denver for the first time in eight years. But the Bengals’ road win vs. the 49ers shouldn’t qualify as one of them. Yes, technically the Bengals were four-point underdogs, but they’re never truly underdogs with a healthy Joe Burrow.
We learned plenty about the Bengals and 49ers during their Week 8 clash.
