🚨 BREAKING: The NBA has ruled that the Clippers circumvented the salary cap in connection with Kawhi Leonard.

The punishment is HUGE:

• ❌ Clippers lose 5 first-round picks
• 💰 Owner Steve Ballmer fined $30 MILLION
• 🚫 Ballmer, Lawrence Frank & Gillian Zucker suspended
• 💵 Kawhi Leonard must pay $700K in restitution
• ✅ Kawhi will NOT be suspended
• ✅ His contract will NOT be voided

That’s a MASSIVE blow to the Clippers. 👀

Meanwhile, the Lakers are watching this unfold from across town. 💜💛🍿

🚨 Danny Green on Lakers guard Collin Sexton:

“Collin Sexton is a Marcus Smart version, but is able to score a little more.” 👀🔥

Interesting comparison between the two guards. 🏀

Do you agree with Danny Green? 🤔

Is Collin Sexton basically a BETTER, more scoring version of Marcus Smart? 👀💜💛

Could be a HUGE addition for the Lakers this season. 🔥

🚨Sandro Mamukelashvili has been putting on a show for Georgia this summer — and his all-around game is turning heads. 🔥

📊 Last 3 games:
🔥 20 PTS — 6 REB — 6 AST vs. Israel
🔥 17 PTS — 7 REB — 6 AST vs. Montenegro
🔥 22 PTS — 6 REB — 4 AST vs. Portugal

That’s 19.7 PPG | 6.3 RPG | 5.3 APG across three straight wins.

The scoring is impressive, but the versatility is what really stands out.

Mamu can stretch the floor, rebound, facilitate and create from the frontcourt — giving the Lakers another dimension offensively.

Now Lakers fans get to see if that versatility translates to Purple & Gold. 💜💛

👀 Could Mamu become a sneaky-good addition for LA?
