Shams Charania is one of the most recognizable names not just in NBA media, but in sports media as a whole. He is a legitimate rival to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski when it comes to breaking the league’s biggest news first, and you don’t just fall into that position, you have to work, work, and then work a little bit more.
Given the state of today’s NBA where trade rumors and deals garner more attention than the actual product on the hardwood, there is very little time off for someone trying to keep up with the endless drama around the league.

C.J. Stroud said something to me, walking through NRG Stadium towards his postgame press conference, that might contradict what you think of him, if you just look at the stats.
The Texans quarterback came into Week 6 with zero interceptions, going his first 186 NFL attempts without one, the longest such streak to start a career in NFL history. He’s a rookie. He’s playing for a Year 1 head coach and working with a first-time offensive coordinator. All of it might make you assume this is some sort of Checkdown Charlie operation.

Every December, Tiger Woods stages the Hero World Challenge, a limited-field event that features the world’s top players in the Bamahas.
On Monday, Tiger Woods announced the 19-person field that will comprise the 2023 Hero World Challenge, the tournament he hosts.
This limited-field event starts on Nov. 30 at the Albany Golf Course in the Bahamas. The final round will take place on Sunday, Dec. 3.
Each NBA season, the league floods the market with alternate jerseys, hoping to capitalize on fans’ nostalgia for a team’s old look or a successful era of yesteryear. In recent seasons, NBA teams have broken out of regular color schemes and designs with “City Edition“ jerseys from Nike that often feature bold creativity.
However, Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma thinks it’s all a bit too much. Teams have so many alternate jerseys now that players seem to be sporting a different look in nearly every game.

Bills running back Damien Harris has been released from a local hospital and has neck pain, “but otherwise is going to be fine,” a source told ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
Raiders coach Josh McDaniels told reporters Monday that quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo avoided major injury after he was seen leaving Sunday’s game against the Patriots in an ambulance at halftime. McDaniels said the signal-caller underwent scans to detect a possible internal injury.
“Seems like we dodged a big bullet,” McDaniels said, according to ESPN’s Paul Gutierrez. “Still doing a couple things this morning. The prognosis was a lot better than it might have otherwise been … good news.
We have six teams on bye and various new injuries to panic about, so we’re definitely gonna need to work the waiver wire. Andy Behrens is here to help.
Jake Paul will re-enter the boxing ring for a fight before 2023 comes to an end.
The popular social media personality-turned-boxer announced Monday that he expects to fight in his ninth professional match on Dec. 15 in a pay-per-view bout that will air on DAZN. Although Paul did not reveal the opponent, he stated that KSI and Tommy Fury could be possible matchups, according to MMA Fighting.
“8 fights in the boxing game and I’m already its biggest name,” Paul said in a statement. “I’ve proved that I can headline the biggest global events and defy the odds.
The New York Jets handed the Philadelphia Eagles their first loss of the season Sunday. On one hand, you could chalk it up as a classic trap game for Philly. They have the 5-1 Miami Dolphins in prime time next week, and they simply overlooked the lowly Zach Wilson-led Jets.
On the other hand, though — and hear me out — you could argue the Jets aren’t as horrendous as we originally thought.
