The hits keep coming for ESPN and confused NBA analyst Kendrick Perkins.
For those of us who once valued the Worldwide Leader in Sports for their commentary before they turned to a race-first approach for headlines, it’s felt like years since someone boldly called them out for their off-the-mark sports takes.

Jason Williams, also known as ‘White Chocolate,’ is one of the best passers in NBA history. Although the former No. 7 draft pick and NBA champion’s greatness may hold the same clout as, say, Chris Paul, Magic Johnson or Oscar Robertson, it cannot be understated.
From 1998 to 2007, few players were as smooth as Williams. Especially in the early portion of his career.
The former Marshall and Florida guard was named to the All-Rookie First Team after dropping 12.8 points, 3.1 rebounds and six assists per game.

Emmanuel Acho, LeSean McCoy, Joy Taylor, and Ric Bucher discuss whether the New York Jets would become Super Bowl contenders if they added veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

The Los Angeles Clippers are finally getting their own arena after sharing a building with the Lakers since the building formerly known as the Staples Center opened in 1999. While the Clippers’ new Intuit Dome won’t be ready until the 2024-2025 season, the team gathered today for a sneak peak at the new place led by an enthusiastic speech from governor Steve Ballmer.
There’s one thing that excites Ballmer more than anything else about the Clippers’ new arena and it’s not the opportunity to get out of the Lakers’ shadow.

It has been a long time since most NFL players last sat in a classroom and broke down the rules of mathematics. That was abundantly clear on Monday as Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr. tried to solve a viral math problem with help from Eagles defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson.
The difficulty in solving the equation, which was since deleted, led to a hilarious exchange.
Things got started when Hardman presented the following: 6 ÷ 2(1+2). What is the correct outcome?
Well, that is the question that NFL players tried to solve.
Hardman said that it “Equals 1.

The Sacramento Kings received 1%, LA Clippers received 2% and the Los Angeles Lakers at 8%.

Baltimore knew what it was doing by placing the nonexclusive tag on its QB and can now sit back and wait to see if a team steps up with an offer sheet it can’t or won’t match.
By choosing a nonexclusive franchise tag option, the Ravens on Tuesday opened the door for the NFL to dictate Lamar Jackson’s market, perhaps the only way they could steer their one-time franchise quarterback closer to a deal that doesn’t involve entering the same orbit as a fully guaranteed contract born of a bidding war for Deshaun Watson.

The QB cleaned up financially with his new contract.
Daniel Jones and the New York Giants came right down to the wire, barely beating the Tuesday deadline to use the franchise tag by agreeing to a monster four-year, $160 million extension with the possibility to earn up to another $35 million in incentives. 
That’s not too bad for a quarterback who has won just one playoff game in his four-year NFL career.

The Boilermakers are heavy favorites to leave Chicago with their second-ever Big Ten Tournament title.
The Big Ten Tournament begins Wednesday evening in Chicago.
It’s a crowded field, alright, with just a handful of games separating second place from 12th. Purdue powered its way to the No. 1 seed at the United Center and is accordingly the betting favorite to win the tournament, something it’s only accomplished once in program history. Third-seeded Indiana has the best odds to challenge the Boilermakers for the title.
