- Michael Jordan trash-talking while playing pick-up in the Bahamas: “You guys still have YouTube? Man, you better put on Michael Jordan [highlights], for real.” 😂
- Zach LaVine and Aaron Gordon spoiled us...
- Karl-Anthony Towns responds to Stephen A. Smith calling his taunting of Russell Westbrook "classless." KAT is fed up 😂

- Kon Knueppel had the weirdest press conference ever after getting drafted. This is the entirety of his presser:
- In the last 10 days, Chris Paul, Jimmy Butler, Paul George, Ricky Rubio, Dwight Howard, Brook Lopez, D'Angelo Russell, #1 pick were traded.
- Lamar Odom was in a coma and fighting for his life. Doctors told him that he suffered 12 strokes and 6 heart attacks. Once he woke up, people wondered if he'd ever walk again. Tonight, he returns to pro basketball in the BIG3. What an incredible comeback!
- Eli Manning is SO EXCITED for his brother, Peyton.
- Back in 2011, Gordon Hayward parodied LeBron's "Decision" when he joined a professional eSports league. Seems like a good time re-post...
00:00 - NBA All-Star Saturday Night should add a Three-Point Contest with retired shooters. Imagine seeing Ray Allen, Reggie Miller, Kyle Korver, J.J. Redick, Peja Stojakovic, Rashard Lewis, etc. face off today!
