Angels finally get rid of Anthony Rendon

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

The Los Angeles Angels are finally putting an end to the Anthony Rendon era.

The Angels have agreed to restructure Rendon’s contract and end his time with the Angels, according to Sam Blum of The Athletic. The restructure involves Rendon’s contract being deferred over the next several years, though it is unclear how much money the Angels will save in the short-term.

Rendon had been slated to make $38 million in 2026. That number will be reduced, possibly significantly.

The move puts an end to one of the most disappointing free agent signings in recent MLB history. Rendon only played in 257 out of a possible 1,032 games for the team after signing a 7-year, $245 million contract prior to the 2020 season. Injuries were the main issue, but he did not perform all that well even when healthy, and came off as being rather indifferent about his struggles.

Rendon hit 22 home runs and drove in 125 during his tenure with the Angels. Those numbers are far short of what was expected of him when he signed.

Rendon’s future plans are unclear, though he is not expected to be around the Angels in any way next season after undergoing offseason hip surgery. There have been some rumors that he might just retire at this point.

Cowboys abruptly release former Pro Bowl player

The Dallas Cowboys have released a former Pro Bowl selection with one game still to play in the season.

The Cowboys released cornerback Trevon Diggs on Tuesday. Assuming he goes unclaimed on waivers, he will become a free agent and eligible to sign with any team prior to Week 18.

The decision to part ways with Diggs is not a shocker, but the timing somewhat is. He even played for the Cowboys last Thursday, albeit in a limited role.

Diggs spent most of the season injured, with a concussion keeping him out for over a month. The team did not activate him even once he said he was healthy enough to play, and it appeared at that point that the two sides were headed for a split at some point.

Diggs is best remembered for his 2021 season when he intercepted 11 passes and was named first-team All-Pro. He has only played in 19 games over the last three seasons, largely due to knee injuries. The Cowboys signed him to a five-year, $97 million contract extension in 2023.

The cornerback’s release comes on a difficult day for the Diggs family, as his brother is facing some serious legal problems.

Nikola Jokic’s injury could end his MVP award hopes

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic avoided the worst-case scenario regarding his knee injury, but it may still cost him significantly.

Jokic has been diagnosed with a hyperextended knee, according to Shams Charania of ESPN. The Nuggets will re-evaluate him in four weeks, which likely means he will miss the entire month of January.

While the injury does not appear likely to derail Denver’s season, it probably spells the end of Jokic’s MVP hopes. NBA rules state that players must play in 65 games to be eligible for end-of-season awards. As of Tuesday, Jokic has played 32 games. If he were to return on Feb. 1, he would miss the next 18 games, and could not play more than 64 games in the season.

Essentially, Jokic probably has no path to winning his fourth MVP award now. That is a shame, and the rule was passed more to deal with load management and less about legitimate injuries like this, but there is nothing that can be done about it now.

Jokic suffered the knee injury Monday night. He was averaging 29.6 points, 12.2 rebounds, and 11.0 assists per game before getting hurt.

Stefon Diggs charged with felony strangulation

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs is facing a felony strangulation charge stemming from an incident that took place earlier this month.

Diggs has been charged with felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery charges over an incident on Dec. 2, according to court documents obtained by Boston 25 News. No further details were available regarding the nature of the case or the alleged victim.

Diggs’ arraignment has been scheduled for Jan. 23, two days before the AFC Championship. Diggs’ attorney, Michael DiStefano, appeared in court Tuesday to request that the date be moved to March. DiStefano also sought to have the police report impounded. The attorney told a judge that Diggs is attempting to negotiate a financial settlement with the alleged victim.

The Patriots said in a statement that they are aware of the allegations, and that Diggs “categorically denies” them.

“Stefon has informed the organization that he categorically denies the allegations,” the Patriots’ statement said. “We support Stefon. We will continue to gather information and will cooperate fully with the appropriate authorities and the NFL as necessary.”

Diggs is in his first season with the Patriots and has once again established himself as a high-quality wide receiver. In 16 games, he has 82 catches for 970 yards and four touchdowns. His personal life also seemed to be going well, as he welcomed a child with rapper Cardi B in early November.

Chip Kelly has landed a new job

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

Chip Kelly has a new job coming off his unsuccessful stint with the Las Vegas Raiders.

Kelly has taken the offensive coordinator job at Northwestern, the school announced Tuesday. It marks Kelly’s return to the Big Ten one year after leaving Ohio State for the NFL.

Kelly’s stock has certainly fallen a bit following his stint with the Raiders. Northwestern just wrapped up a 7-6 season, and certainly would not be regarded as being among the most prominent programs in the Big Ten. It remains to be seen how much he will be making with the Huskies, as he was very well compensated at both Ohio State and in the NFL.

Once seen as one of the most innovative offensive coaches in football, Kelly has never been able to replicate the success he had at Oregon. He went 35-34 at UCLA before leaving that job to become the Buckeyes’ offensive coordinator. He did help Ohio State win a national title in 2024 as part of their staff.

Kelly’s biggest failures have come in the NFL, and his latest gig was no exception. One figures he will probably stick to college jobs from here on out.

Fans all said the same thing about Tua Tagovailoa’s interaction with Quinn Ewers

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

It remains to be seen what the Miami Dolphins will do with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who is rumored to be a top candidate to be moved by the Fins in the coming offseason.

For now, Miami appears to be happy to have rookie Quinn Ewers as its starting quarterback, as the 2025 NFL season winds down. 

Getting benched for a rookie can be tough to deal with for a veteran like Tagovailoa, but if he’s frustrated with Miami’s decision to go with Ewers, he’s doing a great job at hiding it.

That’s a takeaway one can have after seeing an interaction on the bench between Tagovailoa and Ewers during Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Fla. 

After leading the Dolphins to a scoring drive, Ewers went to the team bench and was seen on the broadcast having a nice little chat with Tagovailoa, who looked ecstatic for the younger quarterback.

However, many fans don’t think Tagovailoa was being authentic in that moment, believing that he was simply being content with the fact that he’s already made bank regardless of his status with Miami.

Ewers still has a lot to prove if he is to become a future regular starting quarterback of the Dolphins, and even if he continues to impress under center in Week 18, Miami’s situation in that position will always start with a discussion about Tagovailoa. 

Cutting the former Alabama Crimson Tide star will incur the Dolphins a huge cap hit in the future, and trading him could be harder to pull off, given his contract and injury history.

The Dolphins conclude their 2025 NFL season with a matchup against the New England Patriots on Sunday at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass.

Ja’Marr Chase makes honest admission after 73-day TD drought

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase nearly forgot what it was like to find the end zone. 

In Week 17’s game against the Arizona Cardinals at Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati, Ohio, Chase finally ended a long touchdown drought, as he reeled in not just one, but two TDs in the Bengals’ 37-14 victory at home.

It was the first game he scored a touchdown since Week 7’s meeting with the Pittsburgh Steelers at the same venue, and that 73-day gap felt like forever to the former LSU Tigers star wideout.

“I didn’t even know what celebration I was going to do once I scored,” Chase said when asked about finally scoring a touchdown again, via Joe Danneman of Fox 19 Now.

“That’s how I knew I hadn’t been in there in a minute.”

Chase’s first touchdown against the Cardinals was a sensational one, as he used a series of moves to evade Arizona’s defense. For his celebration, he simply raised his hands and spiked the ball. Nothing fancy, but all that mattered to him and the Bengals was his touchdown.

The return of Joe Burrow under center has raised the ceiling of the Bengals’ attack, with Chase among the main beneficiaries. 

While it took him a long time to score a touchdown again, he has been very productive in terms of yards gained in the 2025 NFL regular season. 

He enters the final week of the regular season already with 1,316 receiving yards and 7 touchdowns on 117 receptions and 175 targets. The 25-year-old Chase can add more to those numbers on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns at Paycor Stadium.

Macklin Celebrini escapes injury after frightening incident

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

The San Jose Sharks won their second game in a row on Monday night, but not before getting a major Macklin Celebrini injury scare.

During the third period of a game against the Anaheim Ducks at Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif., Celebrini accidentally took a puck to the face while playing defense. The 19-year-old center immediately dropped his stick and fell to the ice in clear pain. 

Celebrini left the contest to get his face checked, and fortunately for San Jose, he was able to return to the action several minutes later, indicating that he did not sustain a serious facial injury.

Undoubtedly the most important Sharks player, Celebrini played a huge role in his team’s 5-4 victory over the Ducks, as he recorded 3 points in the contest. He scored a goal in the first period and had 2 assists in the second frame.

With yet another impressive performance, Celebrini managed to reach the 60-point plateau in just 39 games in the 2025-26 NHL season. He is now just 3 points away from tying his 63-point output in his rookie campaign in the 2024-25 season, where he played 70 games.

After losing three contests in a row, Celebrini and the Sharks (19-17-3) are now on a two-game winning streak, giving them momentum going into a three-game homestand that begins on Wednesday against the Minnesota Wild at SAP Center at San Jose in San Jose, Calif.

Jimmy Butler had words for Nets rookie

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

Jimmy Butler gave a Brooklyn Nets rookie a lesson on talking trash. 

Late in the third quarter of Monday’s game between the Golden State Warriors and the Nets at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., Butler put the ball on the floor and challenged the defense of Brooklyn rookie forward Danny Wolf.

Butler scored on a pull-up jumper while also drawing a shooting foul from Wolf. As if that was not enough to embarrass the former Michigan Wolverines star, Butler targeted Wolf with some seemingly colorful words after.

Veterans like Butler always find pleasure in giving first-year NBA players a rude welcome to the league, and Wolf was unfortunate enough to get such a harsh verbal treatment from one of the league’s most intense individuals. 

Butler did more than just punish Wolf, as he helped the Warriors eke out a 120-107 win over Brooklyn, scoring 21 points on the strength of an 11-for-12 shooting from the free-throw line, grabbing 5 rebounds and dishing out 4 assists in 31 minutes. Stephen Curry paced the Dubs with 27 points on 8-for-15 shooting from the floor, including five 3-pointers.

Wolf, on the other hand, laid an egg, as he missed his only two attempts from the field in 20 minutes of action.

Czech Republic stuns Finland with unreal overtime finish

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

The Czechs used a sick move to escape their 2026 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships group stage game against Finland at 3M Arena at Mariucci in Minneapolis,  Minn., with a 2-1 overtime victory.

With only a little over a minute left in overtime, Czech defenseman Adam Jiricek took a well-placed pass right in front of the net, then showed his incredible stick-handling skills by going between his legs before firing the puck that slipped past Finland netminder Petteri Rimpinen.

With that goal, the Czechs now have two wins in the tournament and have moved them within two points of the top of the Group B standings.

While Jiricek’s goal is getting the attention it surely deserves, the Czechs relied on their defense to keep pace with the high-powered Finland, who leads the group with 15 goals.

“I think this is the first game in the two or three weeks this team has been together that we played really well defensively,” Czech coach Patrik Augusta said after the contest, via  Andrew Podnieks of the IIHF’s website.

“We were smart. We were fast. We moved the puck quickly, and we were finishing our plays. You don’t want to give the Finns too much room. They are so skilled. It was a tight game, which is what we wanted.”

The Czechs have already clinched a spot in the next round of the tourney, but will play one more game in the preliminary round. 

Up next for Jiricek and company is a game on Wednesday against Latvia.

Klay Thompson draws harsh reactions after missed shot

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

Dallas Mavericks star Klay Thompson is still a deadly shooter, but he fired a blank in a crucial moment of Monday night’s game against the Portland Trail Blazers at the Moda Center in Portland, Ore.

Trailing Portland by three points with 3.0 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Thompson took the inbound pass off a designed play to get him the ball. Given the situation and the fact that Thompson is one of the greatest shooters to ever play the game, it seemed just right that he would get the nod to take the final shot for Dallas. 

After receiving the ball, Thompson got two Portland defenders in the air with a sweet pump fake before rising for the shot. Unfortunately for Thompson and Dallas, he failed to find the target, as the Blazers escaped with a 125-122 victory.

Here’s how the final play of the contest unfolded:

Shortly after Thompson’s missed shot, fans took to social media to express their sentiments about his status as a fading star.


Thompson, 35, is no longer shooting as efficiently as he did during his prime years with the Golden State Warriors, but that play made it clear the Mavericks still trust him to take a clutch 3-pointer. He finished the Portland game with 14 points on 5-for-12 shooting from the field and 3-for-12 from behind the arc.

So far in the 2025-26 season, Thompson is shooting just 37.2% from the floor and 35.4% from deep.

Puka Nacua had one of the greatest incompletions ever

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua is so talented that even his incompletions are drawing rave reviews.

The Rams, trailing 27-24 with 10 seconds left, needed a big play from Nacua to escape Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Ga., with a win. Facing 3rd-and-10 in the Rams’ own territory, Matthew Stafford threw toward the sideline to Nacua right at the edge of field goal range.

Nacua paid homage to former Falcons legend Julio Jones with an incredible toe-drag play before falling into the sideline with the football.

The home fans held their breath for several minutes as referees reviewed the play, which was initially ruled a catch. While the ESPN broadcast believed Nacua had made a legitimate catch, the officials eventually upheld the ruling: no catch.

While Nacua’s play on the ball was ruled incomplete, the admiration for his efforts was overflowing on social media.

Some even argued that Nacua had made a legitimate catch, regardless of the referee’s final ruling.

The Rams stormed back from down 21-0 to get within 27-24 in the final minute of the contest. But the comeback fell short against a Falcons team that had nothing to play for. Nacua finished the game with 47 yards and a touchdown on 5 catches.

The referees did not make the Rams’ comeback bid any easier down the stretch. Los Angeles also got burned by a botched call one play prior, when wide receiver Tutu Atwell was grabbed while trying to make a play on a deep ball.

Rams burned by brutal missed call in final seconds against Falcons

A botched call may have been the difference in Monday night’s matchup between the Los Angeles Rams and Atlanta Falcons.

The Rams trailed the Falcons 27-24 with under 30 seconds remaining in the Week 17 showdown at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Ga. Facing 2nd-and-10 at the Rams’ own territory, Matthew Stafford went deep to Tutu Atwell for a potentially game-changing play.

Falcons cornerback Dee Alford grabbed at Atwell’s arm multiple times while trying to get the stop. But referees kept their flags in their pockets, a decision that did not sit well with the ESPN broadcast.

ESPN announcers Joe Buck and Troy Aikman and rules analyst Russell Yurk all felt like pass interference should have been called against Alford.

The Rams failed to convert on their next two chances, which included a dazzling incompletion from Puka Nacua that some felt should have been considered a catch.

The Rams fell just short in their wild comeback bid after trailing 21-0 at halftime. Los Angeles got back in the contest thanks to a rare blocked field goal touchdown return from Jared Verse in the third quarter to cut the deficit to 24-17.

The Rams came all the way back to tie the contest at 24 before Falcons kicker Zane Gonzalez gave Atlanta the lead back with a field goal on the game’s penultimate possession.

Jared Verse taunted Falcons sideline as he ran back a blocked field goal for TD

Los Angeles Rams linebacker Jared Verse carved out some time to showboat on his way to a game-changing touchdown against the Atlanta Falcons.

Verse broke through the Falcons’ O-line for a clean block on Zane Gonzalez’s 37-yard field goal attempt. The Rams star picked the ball up cleanly and ran it all the way back for a touchdown.

Verse took his sweet time doing it. He slowed down a bit to flash a peace sign toward the Falcons’ sideline at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Ga.

Here’s another angle showing Verse put up the deuces on his 73-yard touchdown return.

Verse’s feat was definitely worthy of celebration. He became the first Rams player in nearly 40 years to return a blocked punt for a field goal. LeRoy Irvin was the last player to do it during a Week 2 contest in 1986 — a 640-game gap between the two plays.

The touchdown also chopped down the Falcons’ lead to 24-17 after the Rams trailed 21-0 at halftime. Matthew Stafford and the Rams got the meme treatment through two quarters, but turned things around late to make the “Monday Night Football” matchup competitive.

Matthew Stafford gets the memes for his 2-INT half on ‘MNF’

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

Matthew Stafford looked like anything but the NFL MVP frontrunner during the first half of Monday’s game.

Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams went up against the Atlanta Falcons on this week’s edition of “Monday Night Football.” But the veteran quarterback Stafford very much had a first half to forget at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Ga.

In the second quarter, Stafford was attempting to connect with receiver Konata Mumpfield on a 3rd-and-3 play but overthrew him and found the waiting arms of Falcons safety Jessie Bates III instead. Bates then took it all the way to the end zone for a 34-yard pick six.

That was not all from Stafford though as he also got picked off on the opening play of a Rams drive later on in the second quarter. Stafford floated in a deep ball for receiver Xavier Smith and got it intercepted instead by Falcons safety Xavier Watts.

The wretched first half by Stafford helped the Falcons take a surprise 21-0 lead over the Rams into halftime. Stafford was also promptly brutalized with memes over social media (with most of the jokes centering on how Stafford had seemingly thrown away his MVP case).

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, the other leading candidate for NFL MVP, just turned in a five-touchdown drubbing of the New York Jets on Sunday. With the Rams also blowing it during their last game on “Thursday Night Football” against the Seattle Seahawks (which even resulted in a coach firing), many feel that Stafford’s MVP case is now all but cooked.

Bijan Robinson rips off electric 93-yard touchdown run on ‘MNF’

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson delivered a huge haymaker to close out the first half Monday against the Los Angeles Rams at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Ga.

Robinson completely juked safety Jaylen McCollough, then punctured a hole in the middle of the Rams’ defense on a 1st-and-10 play at the Falcons’ own 7. Robinson outran Los Angeles’ secondary all the way into the end zone for a 93-yard touchdown.

Robinson’s 93-yard TD was the longest in Falcons franchise history.

The play was a fitting end to a first half dominated by Atlanta. Robinson’s end-to-end score gave the Falcons a 21-0 advantage heading into the “Monday Night Football” intermission.

The Texas alum recorded 125 yards and an electric touchdown on 11 carries in the opening two quarters to go along with a receiving touchdown. Robinson also impacted a ton of fantasy football championships in the process.

Robinson entered Monday’s game with 1,250 rushing yards and 6 rushing touchdowns across 15 games. Robinson also ranked third on the Falcons in receiving yards (776) and receiving touchdowns (3) coming into Week 17.

Brandon Miller hits with Kyle Kuzma with a vulgar taunt after posterizing him

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

Brandon Miller took Kyle Kuzma’s soul and then made sure to let him know about it.

The Charlotte Hornets forward Miller went viral during Monday’s game against the Milwaukee Bucks for his vicious poster dunk on his Bucks counterpart Kuzma. In the fourth quarter at Spectrum Center in Charlotte, N.C., Miller picked off a crosscourt pass by Kuzma and then went off to the races in transition.

With Kuzma in hot pursuit, Miller rose up at the rim and yammed it right over the top of a leaping Kuzma. Check out the spectacular video.

Another angle showed that Miller hit Kuzma with a vulgar taunt right after caving his head in with that dunk. “Dumb a– b—h,” Miller could be seen saying to Kuzma.

In the end, it was Milwaukee who got the 123-113 victory over Charlotte. But with Kuzma only contributing six points on 3/7 shooting (compared to a game-high 31 points on 9/22 shooting for Miller), he might have to go home to lick his wounds after that one.

The former No. 2 overall pick Miller is still struggling with injuries in his third NBA season and has already missed 16 games thus far for the Hornets. But things can get pretty magical whenever Miller does suit up, and he certainly made an emphatic addition on Monday to Kuzma’s growing career lowlight reel.

Jaxson Dart’s dad slams former Giants QB for dissing his son

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

Jaxson Dart’s dad is clearly not a big fan of former New York Giants quarterback Danny Kanell.

Kanell appeared on CBS Sports HQ on Sunday and shared his stance on Dart. The Florida State alum stated that he has not seen enough from Dart to dub him the team’s quarterback of the future.

“I don’t know if Jaxson Dart is the long-term answer for the Giants,” Kanell said. “When I think of a first-round draft pick, I think of somebody that you should picture for 10 to 12 years is going to be your guy.

Kanell added that he hasn’t seen development from Dart as a passer, with the Giants remaining heavily reliant on Jaxson’s running ability. Kanell said he would need Dart to “take that next step as a passer” before crowning him New York’s next franchise QB.

Dart’s father, Brandon, had a succinct response to Kanell’s criticism.

“Bro, Eat a Fat One!” Brandon Dart responded, via a post on X.

It’s tough to argue with Mr. Dart’s point there. While nobody can fault Brandon Dart for sticking up for his son, Kanell’s criticism does come with some truth to it.

Jaxson Dart has been inconsistent with his passing ability in his first season and has relied too heavily on his legs at times. Look no further than the absurd stat line Dart had during the first half of the Giants’ Week 16 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Dart had more sacks (3) than passing yards (2) at halftime of the contest.

However, the Giants rookie still has a lot of time to prove Kanell and the rest of his critics wrong. Only time will tell who ultimately ends up having to “eat a fat one.”

Nikola Jokic goes down with an ugly-looking knee injury

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

The NBA landscape may have just shifted drastically.

Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic went down on Monday night against the Miami Heat with an ugly-looking left knee injury. Late in the second quarter at Kaseya Center in Miami, Fla., Jokic was stationed in the paint defensively.

Heat forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. drove to the basket on Nuggets counterpart Spencer Jones and bumped Jones with his arm in the process. Jones was knocked backwards by the contact and ended up colliding with Jokic.

Jokic’s knee bent backwards as a result of the collision. He immediately crumpled to the ground in agony, grabbing onto his left knee. Here is the video.

Take a look at a better angle of the collision.

Jokic was able to get up on his own but limped off to the locker room in obvious pain. He had 21 points and eight assists in 19 minutes at the time of the injury and was replaced by his backup center Jonas Valanciunas to start the third quarter.

The three-time MVP Jokic, 30, is once again the frontrunner to win the award this season with monster averages of 29.9 points, 12.4 rebounds, and 11.1 assists per game. Denver is also once again a legitimate contender to win it all, having entered play on Monday at 22-9 on the season overall (third in the Western Conference).

Jokic just submitted one of the all-time greatest performances in NBA Christmas Day history a few days ago. But an extended injury absence from the former NBA Finals MVP could have some major consequences for how the league standings (and the championship race) end up playing out.

Ja Morant had an extremely profane reaction to being heckled during game

by
LinkedInRedditThreadsWhatsApp

Washington Wizards fans brought every part of Ja Morant’s vocabulary out during Sunday’s game.

Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies faced off against the Wizards at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C. Wizards fans let Morant hear it all night, and the former NBA All-Star guard Morant certainly did not take too kindly to it.

A viral video shot from the stands showed Morant stepping to the free-throw line after being heckled. In the video, Morant could be seen saying of the Wizards fans, “They be on my d–k more than my b—h.”

You can see the video at the link here (but obviously watch out for the foul language).

Morant’s father Tee, who is a staple at Grizzlies games both at home and on the road, was also seen confronting one particular heckler in the Washington crowd. Take a look at that clip here.

The 26-year-old Morant finished with 21 points and seven assists on Sunday. But it was the Wizards who pulled out a surprise 116-112 win over the Grizzlies, marking just their seventh victory of the season.

With his unpredictable personality as well as his history of getting himself into trouble with the NBA, Morant is somewhat of an ideal target for hecklers. Morant is also pretty confrontational and even had multiple heated exchanges with opposing players while he was injured earlier this season.
