Milwaukee Bucks all-star and former NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo made an appearance on The Daily Show and had some fun talking about Phoenix Suns Forward, Kevin Durant. Giannis said: “You keep joining super teams to win an NBA title, how about we work out together so I can teach you how to carry his own team.” Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe react to Giannis’ jab at KD.

If you would have held a poll before the season to gauge which NBA team in California would have two All-Stars and the best record going into the break, a number of responses would have seemed appropriate.
The Warriors would have been a natural pick, as they were coming off their fourth title within the past decade and have a trio of future Hall of Famers alongside young star Jordan Poole. The Lakers, even with roster issues, had a pair of Top 75 players, in LeBron James and Anthony Davis, who won the championship together in 2020.

Memory teaches us that if something can go wrong with the Lakers, it almost certainly will.

The Los Angeles Lakers are 12th in the Western Conference; a half game out of the play-in and two games back of a playoff spot. Now, LeBron James is reportedly feared to be out several weeks with a foot injury. The Lakers have won three straight and Anthony Davis has scored at least 28 points in two of those games. Shannon Sharpe discusses how far he believes AD can carry the purple and gold without LeBron.

Former Eagles CB and NFL analyst Irv Cross, who died in 2021 at 81, had stage 4 CTE, Boston University researchers said Tuesday.

The Giants plan to release wide receiver Kenny Golladay on March 15, the first day of the league year, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said Tuesday he hasn’t spoken yet with Aaron Rodgers and thus is noncommittal on who will be the team’s starting quarterback in 2023.

After a buzzer-beater pushed them past Arizona on Saturday, the Sun Devils may be one win away from a chance to go dancing.
Conference tournaments are underway, and Selection Sunday is less than two weeks away. It’s put-up-or-shut-up time for teams looking to punch their tickets to the NCAA tournament, and every game seems to have huge implications. After one of the best weekends of the season, here’s a look at Sports Illustrated’s projected bracket on the final day of February.

The team is reportedly “leaning toward” moving the first pick in this year’s draft.
Little time was wasted at Tuesday’s press conference before Bears general manager Ryan Poles was asked about the team’s plan for quarterback Justin Fields next year.
Fields’s future status on the team came into question when the Bears received the No. 1 overall pick for this year’s NFL draft. However, according to a report on Monday from ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Bears are “leaning toward” moving the pick, most likely in order to keep Fields as the starting quarterback.

The former Pro Bowl pass-catcher will get a chance for a fresh start after falling out of favor in New York.
The Giants plan to release wide receiver Kenny Golladay on March 15, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, bringing the veteran pass-catcher’s tumultuous time in the Big Apple to an end.
The franchise will wait to part ways with Golladay until the first day of the 2023 league year, per Schefter. The move will allow New York to save $6.7 million against their salary cap, the ESPN insider reports.
