Lakers' LeBron James reveals new off-court ‘addiction'

The post Lakers' LeBron James reveals new off-court 'addiction' appeared first on ClutchPoints. Seems that Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James is still his enjoying his summer adventures with golf. James finished the 22nd season of his legendary NBA career this past spring. He continues to shine as one of the best players in the league, cementing his legacy as one of the best to ever play the sport. Summers usually feature James emphasizing the importance of conditioning, which helps assure him that he can remain active for many seasons. This one was different as he underwent surgery to repair his MCL, which he injured during the Lakers' first-round series against the Minnesota Timberwolves. While he took the time he needed to heal from it, he has been more relaxed as he partook in golf to spend his days in the offseason. That much was the case after he posted a video on his Instagram page that shows how much investment he is putting into the sport. 'Addicted. Yep, I know. I'm sorry,' James said. What lies ahead for LeBron James, Lakers It was a humorous video for LeBron James to post, continuing to have fun in the summer before he reports to the Lakers for training camp in the fall. James is coming off another All-NBA campaign last season. He averaged 24.4 points, 8.2 assists, 7.8 rebounds, and one steal per game after 70 appearances. He shot 51.3% from the field, including 37.6% from beyond the arc, and 78.2% from the free-throw line. His historic efforts at age 40 earned him a spot on the All-NBA second team, an All-Star selection, and a sixth-place finish in MVP voting. James still has what it takes to be a star for the Lakers, who retooled the roster surrounding him and Luka Doncic this summer. They added Jake LaRavia, Deandre Ayton, Marcus Smart in free agency on top of signing multiple two-way deals with younger talents. Title contention is certainly within the Lakers' reach, especially with James and Doncic headlining the squad. Challenges will certainly come their way when they progress through the 2025-26 season, but they have the talent to make noise in the Western Conference.

Jordon Hudson responds to podcast host going public with awkward cold-call story

It didn't take long for Jordon Hudson to share her side of the story. After it was made public that Bill Belichick's girlfriend cold-called podcaster Charlotte Wilder for frequently discussing her relationship and her competing in the Miss Maine pageant on a shared podcast with co-host Madison Hill's 'The Sports Gossip Show,' Hudson indirectly weighed in on Instagram. The 24-year-old shared a story on the social media platform that she was tagged in by a seemingly fitness influencer/coach, who called out Wilder's 'disappointing take.' 'This was such a disappointing take for me,' the user wrote. '<> Be real. Do I have to seriously argue against (female!) sports journalists that @jordon has is justified in pursuing @missmeusa @missamerica for her own career and interests regardless of who she is dating??' 4 Jordon Hudson shares an Instagram story, backing her in the recent drama with 'The Sports Gossip Show.' 4 Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson leave the Holiday inn in Portland, Maine after coming runner-up in the Miss Maine USA competition. Toby Canham for NY Post The former Bridgewater State cheerleader hasn't liked what she has seen of The Athletic's coverage of her relationship with the 73-year-old University of North Carolina football coach, and the podcast has recently been taken under the ownership of the outlet. That apparently boiled over into a recent phone call with Wilder as Hudson began the chat by announcing herself as 'the president of your universe' to the host. The remark is in reference to a comment made during a show focused on Hudson's participation in the pageant of her home state. 4 Charlotte Wilder (right) and co-host Madison Hill on 'The Sports Gossip Show.' The Sports Gossip Show/YouTube Wilder described much of the call as 'word salad,' she was unable to understand the point of Hudson's message. 'She would oscillate between, like, friendly, but there was clearly like an edge to her voice where she kind of wanted to let me have it,' Wilder described. Things did get cordial for a while as Wilder, co-host Madison Hill and Hudson partook in a number of FaceTime calls. Hudson offered to travel to New York to do an in-person, sit-down interview with Wilder and Hill, but that was later shut down the day the conversation was set to happen, according to Wilder Hudson, according to Wilder, had not watched all of the podcast's dedicated Miss Maine episode, and that sparked another call. 'She's yelling at me. She's crying. She said that she finished the rest of the Miss Maine episode, and she didn't like what we said,' Wilder said. 'And I was like, 'Wait what?' I was like, 'I thought we've been talking about the Miss Maine episode that we did that you watched the whole time?' 4 Jordon Hudson received the second runner-up prize during the Miss Maine 2025 pageant on May 11. Toby Canham for NY Post Wilder admitted she even tried to 'save her from herself,' telling Hudson they were going to discuss the phone call on their podcast, even if she did not go through with the interview. Hudson and Belichick's relationship came to light in June 2024, but they had begun dating in early 2023.

2025 UConn Football Predictions: Huskies Ranked 73rd in RJ Young's Ultimate 136

College Football 2025 UConn Football Predictions: Huskies Ranked 73rd in RJ Young's Ultimate 136 Published Aug. 10, 2025 8:54 p.m. ET share facebook x reddit link This isn't your average college football ranking. My Ultimate 136 is a set of rankings that is fluid, but it's my job to look ahead and make a claim for all FBS teams based on what I know and why I know it. Here are the three pressing questions I started by asking when putting together this list: Who do I think is good? Why do I think they're good? What are the chances they will finish above or below my expectations? Here is a look at where UConn lands in my Ultimate 136. UConn ranking: 73 Last year's ranking: 107 Top player: QB Joe Fagano: Threw for 1,631 yards last season with a touchdown-interception ratio of 20 to 4. [UConn's 2025 schedule] RJ's take: UConn was legitimately great last year, winning nine games and scoring the most points (415 total, 31.4 points per game) it has since 2002. Head coach Jim Mora found something that worked with Fagano and a rushing attack that yielded three backs with 600 rushing yards or more, with 23 touchdowns and 5.2 yards per carry. The secret sauce? Scoring in the red zone. In 44 trips inside their opponents' 20-yard line, the Huskies failed to score just three times. The question is, can Mora repeat that success for what is just one of two Independents in the sport?
