This wild livestream seemingly confirmed nearly every WNBA relationship conspiracy
WNBA players from across the country were caught on film last night at an after-party streamed by the StudBudz, a Twitch channel hosted by Lynx teammates Courtney Williams and Natisha Hiedeman.
The pair had decided to stream for 72 hours straight and managed to not only catch their own chaos on film but also accidentally share too much about some of their fellow WNBA players' apparent love lives.

Saniya Rivers and Marina Mabrey dating rumors confirmed?

Rumors have been swirling around teammates Saniya Rivers and Marina Mabrey for months, largely due to how flirty they get when they're on TikTok live together. And with the Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd dating rumors turning out to be 100 percent true, it's no wonder fans have been shipping these two.
Rivers and Mabrey were caught on camera during the All Stars after party and had a disagreement with the StudBudz about Rivers being with a 'bad bitch' AKA Mabrey. While no one technically said the two are an item, fans seemed to agree that it was almost as good as an actual confirmation.

New York Liberty 'Wizard' Marine Johannès and Seattle Storm star Gabby Williams both also play the French national team and have been fodder for the rumor mill for ages. While officially, the two are just close friends and teammates, StudBudz host Courtney Williams accidentally let it slip that the two are dating when she referred to Williams as Johannès' 'woman' while on camera. Whoops!

Accidentally confirming long-held WNBA fan conspiracy theories isn't the only wild thing to happen during the live stream.

Report: NFLPA board of player reps is expected to vote on interim executive director soon
With executive director Lloyd Howell abruptly out, the NFL Players Association needs to replace him. It soon will. Via Adam Schefter of the NFLPA board of player representatives "is expected to vote" on a new interim executive director before the widespread launch of training camps, on Tuesday. The news comes a day after Dianna Russini of reported that it's currently a two-man race: JC Tretter and Don Davis. (Her tweet caused confusion because it omitted the word "interim." But it's obviously an interim hire.) Because the NFLPA Constitution doesn't contain a procedure for selecting an interim executive director, the NFLPA apparently has come up with a plan for proceeding. It's unclear how the voting will work — especially if no one gets a majority of the votes on the first ballot. Some have suggested that the NFLPA should take its time in hiring an interim executive director, given that too many of the current options are too close to Howell. There's a belief that the best play would be to find someone from the outside to step in and stabilize the situation while the search for a full-time, non-interim executive director proceeds. My own reaction to that possibility? Good freakin' luck. How will the NFLPA find someone good who'll shut down his or her life temporarily in an effort to repair the damage done by the Howell regime and to lay the foundation for someone else to take over? If, as it appears, the interim executive director will be someone who worked for the NFLPA while Howell did, it will be important to move very quickly to find the next executive director — and to make it clear that the interim executive director will not be a candidate and, ideally, will have no role in the selection of his or her replacement. Frankly, the best approach for the NFLPA could be to eventually blow up current union management, with the exception of anyone who realized that Howell was a problem and sounded the alarm about it internally.

Lions DL Levi Onwuzurike out for season with ACL surgery, setback for team with ailing Alim McNeill
ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) — Detroit Lions defensive lineman Levi Onwuzurike is out for the season after having knee surgery, a setback for a franchise that was counting on him to fill in for Alim McNeill. Lions coach Dan Campbell made the announcement on Sunday morning, just before his team had the NFL's first training camp practice of the year. The 27-year-old Onwuzurike started in a career-high 11 games last season, including Detroit's loss to Washington in the divisional round. His playing time increased when McNeill had a season-ending knee injury in December. McNeill, who signed a $97 million, four-year contract extension last October, is out indefinitely. Onwuzurike's injury gives rookie defensive tackle Tyleik Williams a chance to play a significant role when the two-time defending NFC North champions kick off the season Sept. 7 at Green Bay. Detroit drafted the former Ohio State standout with the 28th pick overall in the NFL draft. The 6-foot-3, 334-pound Williams started 13 games for the national champion Buckeyes and had 46 tackles, including eight for losses and 2 1/2 sacks. The Lions will also lean on 31-year-old defensive tackle DJ Reader and newly acquired veteran Roy Lopez, who started 16 games last season for Arizona and has 50 career starts with the Cardinals and Houston Texans. ___ AP NFL:
