Stephen Curry’s journey to becoming one of the best players in NBA history is unique, especially compared to his peers. While Curry was a top-10 pick by the Warriors, he went to a mid-major school in Davidson for three seasons and had to shed the idea that he was too small for the league.
Curry may still be performing at an elite level, but enough of his career has passed for him to tell his story. Apple TV and A24 released the trailer for Stephen Curry: Underrated, a documentary about Curry’s rise to becoming an all-time NBA great.
Kansas athletic director Travis Goff’s Twitter fingers were tingling over the weekend. The 43-year-old had a little bit of fun at the expense of the Jayhawks’ most-hated rivals.
Our saga began on Thursday. Actually, it goes back to last October.
Jayhawks football, amid its best season since 2008, announced that it will renovate its facilities. The project includes major upgrades to David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium, which is one of the oldest football venues in the nation.
Okay, now jump ahead to the end of last week.
Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard and his agent, Aaron Goodwin, are reportedly meeting with the organization on Monday in order to have a discussion regarding the direction of the franchise, according to NBA insider Chris Haynes.
Lillard, who has been the subject of trade rumors throughout the NBA offseason, has been vocal about his desire to remain in Portland and contend for a championship.

On Monday’s First Take, Perkins dished on what makes Green the perfect addition to a team on the fringes of title contention, saying Green’s impact on the game defensively is “invaluable.”
“Draymond Green is the only player in the league that can elevate a team without scoring 20 points per game and make them a title contender,” Perkins said.
Brandon Marshall last played a down in the NFL on October 14, 2018. He has not played professional football, outside of a short stint on the Steelers’ training camp roster that next summer, since.
Although the early portion of Marshall’s career was one of the most dominant runs of the late 2000s and early/mid 2010s, his production fell off of a cliff in 2016. Artificial turf was the culprit, according to the six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver himself.
Brandon Marshall spent the first four years of his career in Denver, the next two in Miami, and three in Chicago.
With the start of NBA free agency mere days away, we’re naturally thinking about which players will end up with new clubs—or stay with their current ones—and how it will shape next season’s title race.

Paolo Banchero recently swapped his commitment and opted to play for Team USA in the upcoming FIBA World Cup, spurning the Italian national team. Banchero had previously made a verbal commitment to play for Italy, however, he had a change of heart ahead of this summer’s World Cup in Manila, Philippines.
His decision left Italian Basketball Federation president Gianni Petrucci irritated. Petrucci sounded off on the “betrayal” from Banchero, labeling the late change as a “joke.”
“Betrayal is a big word, in sports these things happen and personally I’m used to it.
One of the most popular refrains of the John Calipari era in Lexington has been Kentucky will eat first.
The original context here was simple: Regardless of what rule changes would come (when the comment was made in 2017, the questions surrounded the one-and-done rule), Kentucky would get its pick of the litter in recruiting.
This year Kentucky has eaten, well, last. It faced a near-unprecedented roster dilemma for a program of its caliber, having just seven scholarship players (all freshmen and sophomores) fully committed on June 1 for the upcoming season.
