I'm sorry Jazz fans
Utah Jazz star Jaren Jackson Jr. has sustained a torn MCL in his right knee and will be sidelined for 6-to-8 weeks, sources tell me and @BannedMacMahon. Jackson will not require surgery.

block this account, this is the worst kind of engagement bait. thats not what he says in this clip at all
Paul pierce hops on IG live to address the rumors of him being broke. He said do I look broke. I got checks coming in every week. I only said that so the judge can lower my $40K a month child support. My bm needs to get a job😬
“I’m broke but I got 10 cars and 3 cribs lol”
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Paul Pierce did not say this on IG live or address being broke/child support as claimed. The video is an unrelated May 2025 clip of him ranting about NBA playoffs; court filings show him claiming financial hardship without admitting deception.

Heat are 0-3 at home for the first time since 2007-08 & just the third time in franchise history.
Giannis Antetokounmpo has lost 4 straight games to start a season for the first time in his career.

Harry Kane going from football’s most famous trophyless player to a Ballon d’Or winner might be the greatest example of why changing employers can improve your life.

What a disaster
Ramona Shelburne on what could happen if the WNBA title is won on Thursday:
"That celebration may not actually be on that court. I've heard there are discussions about whether there's enough time to turn the arena over in time for the fans to celebrate on the court. It could be moved to a practice court"
Unreal man smh

this is a good thing btw. it's important that working class people can afford things like this
The get-in price to attend Wizards @ Hornets tonight is just $3… cheaper than your morning coffee.
You can even sit courtside for just $835. Unreal. 🤯

So Valkyries fans will need to be free at 9:30 am on a Thursday to possibly watch their team win a championship?
I'm convinced the WNBA is either run by interns or the owners' nieces and nephews.
After a weekend of nonstop frantic discussions and negotiation, Game 6 of the WNBA Finals will be played Thursday at 12:30 pm at 17,000-seat State Farm Arena in Atlanta, sources told ESPN.
The Atlanta Hawks-Cleveland Cavaliers game that night will move back to 8 pm to accommodate the doubleheader, just as the Hawks did for Game 4. This allows a potential Game 7 to remain scheduled for Halloween at Chase Center in San Francisco.
All three Finals games in Atlanta have required hurried adjustments to the schedule at State Farm Arena. It took collective efforts from the WNBA, NBA, the Hawks, State Farm Arena, Dream, Valkyries and broadcast partners to figure out the best course of action again.
By moving the game earlier in the day, the WNBA avoided a scenario where a potential championship game was played inside the Dream’s home arena, the 3,500 seat Gateway Center.
The other option under strong consideration was moving Game 6 to an open date at State Farm Arena on Friday and Game 7 to an open date at Chase Center on Tuesday, November 3.

This is beyond disgraceful. Gambling is a cancer. Prediction markets even worse; they will cause more athletes to cheat, more to be threatened if they make or miss foul shots or play for fewer minutes. Less confidence in integrity of the game. Shame on the NBA and Adam Silver.
The NBA has reached deals with Kalshi and Polymarket to make them the league's preferred prediction markets partners. The companies can now use NBA IP on their platforms, while the NBA gets right of approval on markets that they offer. That and more:

#Packers LB Zaire Franklin, who missed last week’s game after getting accidentally kicked in practice, suffered a hairline fracture in his leg, sources say.
Green Bay did not place him on Injured Reserve, and they believe he can return while missing minimal games.

Probably the most upset I been with officiating. They not the reason the Packers lost because they had 3 trips to the redzone and got 0 points. With that being said the refs, especially that crew, needs to face some form of discipline. That was ridiculous
In my 19 years covering the Packers on a daily basis, I've never written a blame-the-refs story. Yeah, I get it, the Packers beat themselves, too, but what happened at Ford Field was unaccepable, an embarrassment and, to quote Xavier McKinney, bullshit. ⬇️

The Refs are specifically targeting the Green Bay Packers in relation to roughing the passer.
We have a real reason to be upset, clearly you either call it both ways or you don’t call it.
Fraud ass refs.
