Stephen A. Smith issues an apology to Kyrie Irving over his previous remarks.

"stupid' when he skipped Nets home games instead of getting COVID-19 vaccine:

"In my opinion, particularly hindsight-wise, it didn't make him stubborn or selfish; it made him brave... Kyrie Irving did nobody wrong. We did him wrong. I did him wrong.
And for that, I'm sincerely sorry."

Giannis Antetokounmpo explains why he doesn’t date models.

“I’ve heard so many things. ‘Why is Giannis with this wife? He could be with a model. Not one model but ten!’"

"But I am with my wife because she tells me the truth. She loves me, she will tell me whenever I do anything wrong. She will tell my kids the truth. I know that she will kill for my kids and she would even kill me for them. I know that she won’t let my kids get a big head, and that’s the most important thing for me. I am in love. I am in love with her. As a woman and as a mother.”

Victor Wembanyama explained why he signed a 5-year, $252 million contract instead of taking the bigger supermax deal:

“We already have a good team, and we had a great regular season and playoff run. But what’s even more exciting is our future.

“In today’s NBA, a lot of teams never reach their full potential because of salary cap and money issues. I want to make sure that doesn’t happen to us.”

By taking less money, Wembanyama could save the Spurs around $50 million over the length of his contract. It also gives San Antonio more salary cap flexibility to sign better players in the future without having to trade key teammates.

A true team-first move. 👊
