Previously, Mind The Game was hosted by the Los Angeles Lakers' coach, JJ Reddick, and LeBron James. However, after becoming the face of the Lakers, Reddick decided to discontinue his job as a basketball podcaster and started focusing more on the overall performance of the Los Angeles Lakers.

NFL: Cobee Bryant's cryptic post comparing Lamar Jackson to James Harden sparks fury among Baltimore Ravens fans

Cobee Bryant, a young rookie for the Atlanta Falcons in the NFL (National Football League), recently sparked debate with a mysterious post. The Snapchat post displayed an edited image merging two different identities, NFL's Lamar Jackson and NBA star player James Harden. This resulted in the creation of a buzz on social media as fans bashed Bryant. Bryant, who plays as a defensive back, shared a meme on Snapchat with a combined image of James Harden's face with the body of Lamar Jackson. While Lamar is a star quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens and is known for his agile running and passing skills, James is a basketball player famous for his scoring ability but is often criticized for underperforming in NBA playoffs. The post didn't mention any caption or an explicit explanation leading the fans to interpret Cobee Bryant's intention behind posting the image. The meme suggested that both athletes falter when it matters most, in the playoffs. While it might have been intended as a playful jab, many fans especially in Baltimore, found it disrespectful. Lamar Jackson is a beloved figure in Baltimore, having won two NFL MVP awards for his outstanding performances. However, his team, the Baltimore Ravens, has faced criticism for not advancing far in the NFL playoffs, leading some to unfairly pin the blame on Jackson. Similarly, James Harden, despite being a basketball superstar, has faced scrutiny for his teams' playoff losses. By linking the two, Bryant's meme touched a nerve, especially among Ravens fans. Baltimore Ravens passionate fans took to social media, particularly X, to express their anger. Many called out Bryant for being a rookie who hasn't proven himself yet. While Some fans saw it as a playful jab others highly opposed the decision. However, some netizens backed Bryant and extended support with comments in writing comments in his favour.

Vanessa Bryant breaks silence on pregnant, new boyfriend rumors with Rihanna memes

Vanessa Bryant has finally reacted to swirling pregnancy rumors with a series of Instagram stories. The 43-year-old widow of NBA legend Kobe Bryant posted a series of Rihanna memes to quash speculation about her having a fifth child with an unidentified 27-year-old boyfriend. Addressing days of baseless gossip, Vanessa posted a meme of Rihanna floating in water, snorkel mask on, flipping the middle finger, captioned, 'Me protecting my peace, not pregnant & having fun all summer.' She shared another meme with Rihanna's photo and wrote: 'I mean, I am not just the only one'. The images, shared via @vanessabryant, were a direct rebuke to trolls who cited unverified photos suggesting a 'baby bump'. Read More: What is Vanessa Bryant's net worth? Late NBA star Kobe Bryant's wife faces backlash over pregnancy rumors Later on Sunday, Bryant also posted a motivational quote: 'The only way to impress me is by being a good person. I don't care what you have… I just have deep respect for people with pure hearts and good intentions.' Vanessa Bryant is the mother to Natalia, Bianka, and Capri and the late Gianna, who died in the helicopter crash with her father, Kobe. Reacting to rumors about her being pregnant, one social media user on Saturday wrote: 'Vanessa Bryant is pregnant by a 27 year old basketball player. Kobe gave his life, ruined family relationships behind this woman and just 5 years after the death of the man she spent over 20 years with, you get pregnant by another professional player 16 years younger than you. There are no rules out here fellas." "So rumor has it that Vanessa Bryant (Kobe Bryant's Widow) is pregnant which I don't believe but even it was true. In the vows it say 'til death do us part'. Kobe passed away 5 years ago!!!!" a second one said on X, platform formerly known as Twitter.

NBA Legend expresses skepticism about Memphis Grizzlies centre Zach Edey's hype post the regular season

Gilbert Arenas. Photo by Mark J. Rebilas-Imagn Images Memphis Grizzlies centre player Zach Edey ended his performance in the 2025 regular season of the NBA with an average of 9 points, 8 rebounds and 1 assist. The 23-year-old player has been making the headlines recently, owing to his performance that has turned heads and led to predictions of a glorious prospect for his future within the league. However, former Grizzlies player and NBA legend Gilbert Arenas is of a different opinion, which reflects his skepticism about the predictions made by the sports analysts. Gilbert Arenas explains his metrics to judge a rookie's achievement and capabilities, negates the player's possible development in the NBA In a recent episode of Gil's Arena, former basketball player Gilbert Arenas opened up on his opinions about Zach Edey's ongoing speculations and future predictions by the sports analysts of the game. While experts have commented on the ability of the player despite his young age and affirmed that there is enough time for the rookie player to develop his skills, Gilbert is of a different opinion. 'A rookie is a rookie. Either you are going to be a rookie at 26 and you are going to learn in the NBA or you are gonna learn it at 19. Either way it's your first day at the job.' Gilbert has a different set of definitions that defines the capabilities of the players within the court. While the average stat of Edey in the recent season, which stands at 9 points and 8 rebounds, is fine for a rookie player, it is not the same for someone of the young prospect's age. '9 and 8 for a 23-year-old isn't impressive. For a rookie, yeah it is. But for a 23-year-old, that not what they are looking at.' Gilbert continued, 'You are not on the same value. Like if you look the 19-year-old, the 18-year-old, that was a second round pick, that's in front of him, had more votes than him.' Gilbert Arenas STILL Isn't SOLD On The Zach Edey Hype The name of Memphis Grizzlies' power forward Jaylen Wells came up, who is younger to Edey and had an average of 10 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists. Wells was placed on a higher position than Edey on the KIA NBA All-Rookie Team voting results, even though Edey had better stats. Gilbert defended the listicle's purpose of listing out probable star players rather than observing who put on a more solid performance throughout the season. His comparison metrics are based on the age of the player. Gilbert analyses the fact that if Edey scored an average of 9 throughout the season at the age of 23, what would be the other young athlete's score when they are at the age of 23. Also read: LeBron James is not a fan of Bronny and Bryce James' basketball upbringing as he recalled his own journey to become an NBA legend Gilbert seems to be focusing more on the data and past records of rookies in the NBA. He doesn't leave much space for argument within his statements, which completely negates the fact that even though a player starts late, he always has the time to hone skills and emerge as a capable one, improving the average of oneself.
