Memphis Grizzlies rookie sensation Ja Morant doesn't have any beef with Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry, despite their recent interactions regarding disgruntled veteran, Andre Iguodala. According to Grizzlies reporter Michael Wallace, Morant explained that there's mutual respect between he and Curry, and that the two exchanged DMs during their back-and-forth on social media.

Patrick Mahomes miraculously led his Kansas City Chiefs to a come front behind victory against the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl 54 this past weekend. The final score was 31-20 despite the team being down 10-20 with just eight minutes left in the game. Today, the Chiefs are in the streets of Kansas City where they are celebrating their big win with a humongous parade. Fans from throughout Missouri are in town to check out the parade and so far it's been a tremendous party.

Perhaps the person having the most fun right now is Mahomes himself. The Super Bowl MVP was seen chugging beers on the team's parade float, while also throwing the football to fans in the crowd. In one of the clips, Mahomes throws a pretty nice dime that's caught perfectly by the fan below.

The New York Knicks finally cut ties with team President Steve Mills on Tuesday afternoon, much to the delight of the disgruntled fan base. Now, the question becomes who will take over and lead the Knicks to the promised land?

For the time being, Knicks general manager Scott Perry will take over as President, but a permanent replacement will need to be hired in the near future. According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Ramona Shelburne, Knicks owner James Dolan is reportedly considering "hiring a top basketball executive out of the player agent ranks," similar to the way the Warriors brought in Bob Myers, and the Lakers with Rob Pelinka.

With that in mind one name that has surfaced as a potential candidate for Knicks President is Rich Kleiman, the de facto manager of Brooklyn Nets superstar, Kevin Durant.

Kobe Bryant's death came as a huge shock to the NBA community and people are still mourning his tragic passing. While many are showing respect for Bryant, others are taking the opportunity to question his legacy over the rape allegations he faced during the early 2000s. Many have found the inquiries to be malicious and untimely especially when you consider how his family is still grieving. Perhaps the most egregious example of this came recently when Gayle King interviewed former WNBA star Lisa Leslie about Bryant. At one point, King began to hound Leslie about the allegations against Kobe and whether or not they "complicate" what he did for the game.

Leslie was quick to point out that it's a non-issue for her and that the Kobe she knows would never have done such a thing. "It's not complicated for me at all," she said. "Even if there's a few times that we've been at a club at the same time, Kobe's not the kind of guy, never been, like, 'Lis, go get that girl, or tell her, or send her this.' I have other NBA friends that are like that. Kobe, he was never like that."

Future NBA Hall of Famer Dwyane Wade has today released the teaser trailer for his upcoming documentary titled "D. Wade: Life Unexpected," which is set to premiere on ESPN on Sunday, February 23rd at 9 pm ET. The doc will gives fans an in-depth look at the Wade's life on and off the court, including how he once had a gun pulled on him by a police officer.

Check out the trailer embedded below.

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James had his way with the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday night at Staples Center. The four-time NBA MVP posted 36 points on 12-of-20 from the field, including 6-of-9 from behind the arc, to go along with nine assist and seven rebounds in the 129-102 victory.

Following the game, Spurs head coach Greg Popovich was asked what he instructs his team to do when LeBron starts to take over like he did during his 19-point fourth quarter last night. As is often the case, Pop was less than amused by the question as he quipped, "Make sure you get good pictures? We try prevent it. If we could prevent it, we would have. Jesus. Do you stay up all night to think of questions like that?"

The good news for Coach Pop, San Antonio doesn't have any remaining games against the Lakers - unless the two teams square off in the playoffs.

Shaq is easily one of the funniest people in sports media right now and he is never shy to crack some jokes at someone else's expense. Last night, Shaq was on the NBA on TNT panel with Dwyane Wade and Candace Parker. At one point, the crew got to interview dunk contest competitor Aaron Gordon. Throughout the interview, Gordon appeared to be high out of his mind although no one can confirm if that was actually true or not. Either way, Shaq made sure to make fun of Gordon in the most subtle ways possible.

As you can see in the videos below, Shaq alludes to Gordon getting "high" on his dunks while the host next to Shaq asks Gordon to "smoke" the competition. At the end of the segment, Shaq tells Parker and D-Wade that he plans on cutting the weeds around his home. Parker and Wade were trying to hide their laughter although you could clearly spot them cracking up.

Yesterday, Gervonta Davis was arrested and charged with simple battery domestic violence after a video went viral of the boxer grabbing the mother of his children and acting rough with her. It was a pretty shocking video that led to an outcry on social media as various men and women condemned the fighter for his actions. Davis actually turned himself in to police despite going on denying any wrongdoing on social media.

"I never once hit her, yea I was aggressive and told her come on… that’s the mother of my child I would never hurt her other than that happy New Years.. January was trash," Davis wrote.

Kobe Bryant’s death came as a shock to not just the basketball community, but the world at large. Ever since January 26th, tributes have been pouring in, especially from the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers are currently the best team in the Western Conference with a record of 38-11. Last night, they blew out the San Antonio Spurs by a score of 129-102 while Dwight Howard had an impressive night.

Up until last night, Howard hadn’t spoken very much on Bryant’s tragic passing. In the immediate aftermath of the team’s win against the Spurs, Howard was asked about Kobe’s death and how he’s been feeling about it. As you can imagine, the last week has been tough on the Lakers big-man.

Per Ryan Ward Of Clutch Points:

“I was extremely hurt. It really hurt me bad. I didn’t know what to do or say, but I was extremely hurt. Still kind of lost for words. It doesn’t seem real that it happened. I never expected in a million years we’d be talking about Kobe passing away.

“It was very sad. There were nights where I just cried myself to sleep just thinking about it, and it still hurts to this day. It’s kind of hard to talk about it because I just get these overwhelming feelings from it, but he meant a lot to a lot of people, as you could see from the love around the world that everybody received and how hurt everybody was. I could tell that people were deeply saddened.”

In this last stretch of the season, the Lakers will be playing with Kobe’s legacy in mind and we’re sure players like Howard will be putting in extra effort to win the title in his honor. 

Bronny James Jr. is the 15-year-old son of NBA superstar LeBron James and over the last few months, he has been earning a ton of coverage thanks to his play with Sierra Canyon High School in California. Prior to Sierra Canyon, Bronny was known for his highlights while playing for various AAU teams. He has always shown a ton of potential and can already dunk like no one else. As a Freshman on Sierra Canyon, Bronny hasn't been lighting up the scoresheet although he has been a mainstay on highlight reels thanks to his alley-oops and ability to make big plays when it matters. 

Yesterday, ESPN posted Bronny's freshman mixtape on their IGTV and all we can say is: "wow." Throughout the video, Bronny can be seen making a plethora of big plays that will certainly get basketball fans excited for the future.

Of course, it remains to be seen what Bronny will be able to accomplish in the future. Some believe he could play in the NCAA one day while others are holding out before making any premature judgments on a 15-year-old. Regardless, Bronny appears to be an immensely talented player who has a ton of potential moving forward.

Hopefully, we will be seeing Bronny's highlights for years to come.
