Jimmy Butler has the internet believing he might be trying to hook up with new Los Angeles Sparks star Cameron Brink.

There’s a video of the rookie basically letting fans know she fancies the Miami Heat star as she picks him over most of the big names in the NBA.

It does appear that Brink has the hots for the six-time All-Star, and he wasted no time meeting her, pulling up courtside to greet and embrace her after she played the Dallas Wings on Friday.

The clip below shows Brink somewhat shooting her shot at Jimmy before he shows up to her game wearing her No. 22 jersey.

Check it out here:

 

“The way she saying Jimmy name,” one fan pointed out.

“Yeah she may be with a white dude now but we know she likes chocolate,” wrote another.

“If Im Jimmy Butler, Im shooting that shot too. Cant blame the man,” a third offered.

“The craziest part of this whole story is he literally caught a flight OUT of LA earlier that day to go to the Bay … and came back to LA to see brink,” another reported.

Well damn, Jimmy…

Jimmy Butler Appeared To Drop A Massive Hint About His Future

Jimmy Butler is involved in a contract dispute with the Miami Heat at the moment and could end up being traded during the offseason. The forward appeared to send a message to his team while at the game.

“For some reason, the No. 22 looks good in purple and gold,” he said in an interview.

Butler also wears No. 22, which suggests he’s thinking of playing for the Los Angeles Lakers.

We have to assume Brink would love that.

Being the wife of LeBron James is no easy feat and Savannah James has been doing that flawlessly for 11 years. Apart from being the HC in the James household, Savannah has her own business ventures and brands to take care of to keep herself occupied. With two teenage boys in the house, Mommy James is cautious about the dating lives of her boys, which is reflected in a recent episode of the “Everybody’s Crazy” podcast.

In her podcast, Savannah talks about all things from her past experiences to modern-day problems. During the episode, Savannah James talked about the modern dating trend after a caller brought up the matter. Speaking to her co-host, April McDaniel, Savannah said, “I haven’t dated in 100 years. I don’t know what’s going on out these streets. Obviously, talking to you and my other single friends, I noticed it’s tough. I hate it for y’all. But I just think it’s a different time, unfortunately.” (After 10:48)

While her view on the dating lives of the modern day was clear-cut, it seemingly shaded the likes of Taylor Swift, Madonna, Kim Kardashian and John Mayer for obvious reasons.

Savannah, who dated LeBron since their high school days, kept her marriage with the Lakers star intact for over a decade with no signs of even mild controversies. Acknowledging the dating pattern of being intertwined with social media, Savannah’s approach of having more face-to-face conversations to further a relationship came as no surprise, who has remained loyal throughout her years with LeBron.

Savannah James Makes Major Announcement

On her podcast, Savannah James made a major announcement about her current venture with the show. During the final moments of the episode, Savannah announced that “Everybody’s Crazy” merchandise will soon be made available, which includes bonnets, scarves, baby tees, candles, hoodies and also some of their favorite things.

With the growing popularity of her podcast, this seemed the right move from the duo as Savannah has a proven track record of successful business ventures. Apart from the pod, Savannah successfully runs her furniture line and skin care brand alongside her investment in LeBron’s tequila business.

With Bronny James’ impending NBA Draft coming closer, the James family’s earnings are set to get bigger and Savannah’s announcement just gave it another layer of variation to show off the versatility of LeBron James and Co.’s business acumen.

First Take fans were blown away by Molly Qerim’s latest attire.

The ESPN host was finally back on the show after joining regular lead analyst Stephen A. Smith in Chicago last Friday for a special First Take taping and then heading to the National Association of Black Journalists conference for live taping in front of an audience.

After that, she would take a break and finally return on Wednesday as Smith was still on his vacation.

Molly Qerim showed up in a risky outfit as she rocked a two-piece snakeskin blazer that came complete with a short skirt that showed off a lot of her legs.

The riskiest part of the outfit was most certainly the see-through shirt she was sporting underneath the unbuttoned blazer, which exposed her skin.

Qerim appeared to also have on a white strapless bra underneath to keep her girls secure.

 

First Take fans that were watching the episode couldn’t help but respond to Molly Qerim’s outfit:

“Molly looking so fire!” gasped one fan on X.

“Molly…stunning as usual,” said a second.

“I’ve seen First Take in person 2x and Molly really is that fine. It’s crazy,” commented a third.

Molly looks so damn beautiful this morning 😍

As part of her mini vacation, Molly was seen posing in an Argentinian soccer jersey on a trip to Lake Michigan on Friday.

Molly held up the peace sign while families were enjoying the day behind her.

Qerim has had quite the road to get where she is at.

She began her career as an anchor and reporter for the CBS Sports Network and as a studio anchor, where she hosted the SEC Tailgate Show, SEC Tonight, MaxPreps Lemming Report, Full Court Press, and Bracket Breakdown.

Molly Qerim’s Different Looks Continues To Grow Her Fan Base On Social Media

Molly Qerim graduated from Cheshire High School before attending the University of Connecticut, where she obtained a Bachelor of Arts in communications and a minor in business administration, according to Wikipedia.

Her smarts are only superseded by the fact that she is extremely attractive.

Molly usually posts outfits that she is wearing, which has led to her having more than 673,000 followers on Instagram.

Over the years, NBA fans have seen numerous players earn significant money through the league. Their exceptional skills have led to crucial endorsements, resulting in substantial profits. However, Stephen A. Smith believes that players are now treating the league more like a bank rather than a partnership.

Smith recently appeared on an episode of First Take with Shannon Sharpe, Molly Qerim, and Kendrick Perkins. During the discussion, he noted that current NBA players are putting more effort into their offseason training compared to their performance in the last three or four All-Star events.

“You have players who are making generational money that are snubbing their nose at their own product. I’ve had a very prominent agent say to me, ‘The problem is the players look at the NBA like a bank instead of as partners.” Smith said.

Smith elaborated on his observations by comparing NBA players to international basketball players and athletes from other sports. He highlighted that international basketball players, along with athletes from various sports, often show a stronger commitment to winning and achieving excellence in their game rather than prioritizing money.

Stephen A. Smith Reacts To Shannon Sharpe’s Unexpected Critique Of LeBron James

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James was selected for his 21st NBA All-Star Game, but he missed the 2025 contest due to soreness in his foot and ankle. The situation sparked controversy within the NBA community, leading long-time supporter Shannon Sharpe to share his opinions during a recent episode of “First Take.” Stephen A. Smith also took the opportunity to criticize James regarding this situation.

 

“I’m just so proud of my boy Shannon Sharpe. I know he got a lot in him, I didn’t know he had that in him. Selfish, LeBron, oh my lord did you bring it this morning.” Smith said.

Smith’s critical comments regarding James are likely to ignite discussions among NBA fans and analysts alike. It will be interesting to observe the various reactions that unfold.

Social media might be down incredibly bad as Lucia from Grand Theft Auto is going insanely viral.

GTA 6’s trailer 2 officially broke a record after the upcoming second look at the game, which has continued to take forever to come out.

Rockstar has built a rich world of criminals, lunatics, and thieves spanning from Liberty City to San Andreas and beyond. With GTA 6 on the horizon, fans have become ecstatic after seeing a picture of Lucia.

For those unaware, she is a female criminal in the game. Grand Theft Auto states that she did her time at a prison complex in the State of Leonida in the mid-2020s for an unknown crime.

As anticipation builds for the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, a picture shows Lucia stripped down to a two-piece bikini.

“They better have some awesome clothing to choose from. Gotta look cute while doing missions,” a second fan added.

A third fan knew they were no match for her: “If I was in a beauty contest against her, she’d get first place, and I’d get disqualified.”

“She’s beautiful, my sapphic heart can’t take it 🤧,” another X user added.

“not leaving my house anytime soon,” a fan stated about the impending release of the game.

“No arsenal, but ima be a gooner for sure, a sixth fan added.

One final fan added: “Anybody upset about a video game character needs to seriously reevaluate their life.”

Fans Have Waited A Long Time For Grand Theft Auto To Release New Game

After more than a decade of waiting, Grand Theft Auto VI is supposedly finally set to come out in 2025.

Despite their hopes for a release this year fading, the community remains engaged in hopes that a second trailer will be released in early 2025 and a release date of the actual game will come out.

With each passing day, the desire for more news grows stronger.

Hopefully, 2025 will give the fans what they so desperately want.

 

“Hawk Tuah” Girl (Photo via hay_welch/IG)
Haliey Welch, the now-famous “Hawk Tuah” Girl, spoke about her past and upbringing in an interview with Rolling Stone last week.

The Tennesee native, who took the internet by storm by coining the aforementioned term after being asked for her go-to bedroom move in a random street interview in Nashville, is now famous enough to attract attention from the most prominent publications.

As such, RS’s Joseph Hudak sat down for breakfast with her last week and got her to open up about her past.

The interview touched on a sad note as Welch revealed she has no contact with her mother and never had anything to do with her.

The 21-year-old was raised by her paternal grandmother, with whom she still lives, but she sees her dad pretty often.

“When Welch begins to share bits and pieces of her backstory, it offers hints as to why she leans on humor,” Hudak’s piece reads. “Welch was raised by her paternal grandmother from nine months old, and still lives with her today. She sees her father, a farmhand, somewhat regularly, but says she has no contact with her mother. “I’ve never had anything to do with her,” Welch says.”

 

 

The “Hawk Tuah” Girl Clearly Turned Out To Be Alright

Growing up without any form of contact with her mom couldn’t have been great, but all that we’ve seen since the birth of “Hawk Tuah” suggests Haliey is a great person with remarkable character.

Since becoming famous, she’s made a lot of money and is using some of it to help animals, donating to local pounds.

“Maybe this was, like, God’s gift to me or something,” she said of her newfound fame. “Everything that’s gonna come from this, it’s gonna be something good.”

While Haliey is unsure what she wants to do now, despite quitting her job, her publicist notes she’ll be looking to do “what is going to support her and her story best — and what she’s wanting to do in the future with comedy and philanthropy.”

We’re rooting for her, of course.

Kobe Bryant, the legendary NBA player who died in a helicopter crash along with his daughter, was an inspiration to players around the world, not only in the NBA but in other sports as well. His memory still brings tears to the eyes of many. However, a recent disrespectful incident in China has upset Bryant’s fans.

According to a recent post on TMZ Sports, an unidentified man wore a costume depicting Kobe Bryant’s helicopter crash during a Comic Con event in China.

The unknown man in Hangzhou created a model of a crashed helicopter using bottles and cardboard. He was also wearing Kobe Bryant’s number 24 Los Angeles Lakers jersey and a face mask. Onlookers appeared unfazed as they watched the man, and no one seemed angered by his actions. However, NBA fans worldwide were shocked by the incident and had varying reactions to it.

Kobe Bryant’s fans became upset after viewing the video

One fan said, “I’m more upset about the month, bro, not a meme, sorry, #ripkode.”

 

A second fan expressed anger, stating, “Nothing is funny about any of the women, men, or children that lost their lives in that helicopter crash. I have nothing else to say that would be remotely positive regarding this.”

A third fan reacted, “People will do anything for attention. There’s no class anymore.”

People will do anything for attention. There’s no class anymore.

Meanwhile, a fourth fan wrote, “Y’all will learn that most Chinese people are racist towards black people. Watch the interviews for the first Black Panthers movie when it was released in China.”

Bryant was one of the most beloved players in the NBA. He spent 20 years of his career with the Los Angeles Lakers and won 5 NBA championships. He was the NBA MVP of the 2008 season and also earned the NBA Finals MVP award two times. Due to his “Mamba Mentality,” he is often considered one of the greatest players of all time. Recently, James Harden shared that Bryant was his pick for the greatest of all time, and he stated that his love for basketball began because of Bryant.

After a plethora of trash-talking and dunks, the Timberwolves’ season crumbled in the WCF against the Dallas Mavericks. Anthony Edwards’ upbeat mindset was not enough to avoid the Mavs’ relentless barrage, which led to the Minnesota team’s exit. Now with a lengthy offseason ahead of him before heading to the Paris Olympics, Ant-Man has enough time to devote to his family and his partner, Jeanine Robel, is raising their 3-month-old daughter.

Jeanine recently took to social media to post an adorable snap of their toddler wearing a hat. Little Aislynn was wearing a blue-white striped frock along with a white bucket cap with the caption, “3 months old.”

Robel and Anthony Edwards made their relationship public in January 2023. In March, they welcomed their daughter, Edwards’ first and Robel’s second born. Her first child was with rapper Chief Keef, who apparently has 9 different mothers to his kids.

Despite their age gap, Edwards and Robel have been in a steady relationship for over a year. The duo is often seen together during Timberwolves games and on social media, posting sweet and also hilarious stuff.

Anthony Edwards Gets Annoyed by Robel

With his increased spare time in hand, Anthony Edwards tried his hands in the virtual world. In a recently surfaced video, the 22-year-old guard is seen playing video games, but his girlfriend was there to sing him a song just sitting beside him.

 

The intention of Robel was clear, to which she succeeded as Edwards looked bothered by it in the background due to the concentration laps.

While the All-Star can relax for now, soon he’ll be Paris-bound to represent the Team USA. On the back of a strong season, Edwards will be one of the aces of the team despite having big names like LeBron James, Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant.

Edwards averaged 25.9 points in the regular season along with 5.4 rebounds and 5.1 assists, which turned into 27.6-7-6.5 in the postseason. If the former Bulldogs guard remains at his sparkling best, which earned him Michael Jordan comparisons, there will be quite a lot of problems for the opponents in the Paris Olympics.

The Seattle Storm played an important WNBA game against the Minnesota Lynx on Friday, and Nike Muhl came dressed for the occasion.

Muhl was turning heads with another elite WNBA pregame outfit on Sunday.

The Seattle Storm have been playing some of their best basketball in recent weeks, and it continued with a dominant victory over the Minnesota Lynx.

Before that game at Climate Pledge Arena, Nika Muhl was in the back, going viral. She showed up rocking a special-made jacket that was completely unzipped, showing off her black sports bra and pristine abs.

Muhl completed the look with black cargo pants, a black bag, black heels, and even blacker shades.

 

In that Storm-Lynx game, which the home team won 91-63, power forward Nneka Ogwumike was the star on this night. She shot 10-14 from the field and scored 26 points. She also added seven rebounds and three assists.

Storm guard Jewell Loyd was 5-13 from the field for 14 points to go along with five assists and two rebounds.

Skylar Diggins-Smith shot poorly from the field as she scored 10 points, but she had 12 assists and five rebounds.

As for Nika Muhl, she put in the second most minutes of her career as she played six minutes but failed to score her first points of her rookie campaign. She was 0-2 from the field with one turnover.

Nika Muhl Has To Score A Single Point During Limited Minutes

For the year, Nika Muhl has not spent a lot of time on the court due to being drafted by a stacked team.

Mulh has played a total of 32 minutes heading into Sunday.

She has scored zero points on 0-6 shooting, six rebounds, one assist, three turnovers, and six personal fouls. Muhl is also 0-5 from three-point land, per ESPN.com.

New WNBA forward Cameron Brink has admitted that she benefits from being a white player in the league.

While she’s not Caitlin Clark level, Brink is already quite popular, having followed the Indiana Fever guard as the No. 2 overall pick this year.

Kim Kardashian wasted no time snatching her up to make her the face of the former’s SKIMS brand following the league announcing it as its official underwear partner this season.

Meanwhile, the former Stanford star has spoken to UPROXX in a recent interview and admitted that there are benefits to being a young, white player in the WNBA.

“I will acknowledge there’s a privilege for the younger white players of the league,” she said. “That’s not always true, but there is a privilege that we have inherently, and the privilege of appearing feminine. Some of my teammates are more masculine. Some of my teammates go by they/them pronouns. I want to bring more acceptance to that and not just have people support us because of the way that we look. 

“I know I can feed into that because I like to dress femininely, but that’s just me. I want everyone to be accepted — not just paid attention to because of how they look.”

Fans Are Loving What Cameron Brink Had To Say

Fans have been praising Cameron Brink for her comments, with many applauding her level of awareness.

“It’s easy to see why Cam, Paige, HVL etc. are able to understand their privilege as young white women in a black dominated sport,” one wrote. “They interact with black people, are open minded, and see the world for what it is. We’ll always embrace them cause they embrace us. Good on her.”

You can see some more reactions here:

Cameron Brink is averaging 8.8 points and 5.4 rebounds after playing eight games in the ENBA. The Sparks, though, are 2-6 to start the new season.

Paige Bueckers limps off the court leaving UConn fans holding their breath for March Madness

Bueckers is projected to be the first overall pick in the upcoming WNBA draft

UConn’s Paige Bueckers (5) reacts after missing a shot during a NCAA college basketball gameAP

The UConn Huskies (25-3) are on track for a deep run in March Madness, currently ranked fifth in the AP Women’s College Basketball Poll and favored by most sportsbooks to win the national championship. A big reason for their dominance is the presence of veteran star Paige Bueckers, the projected first overall pick in the upcoming WNBA Draft. However, one lingering concern remains – her history of injury. Bueckers has already missed games this season due to a knee issue, raising questions about her durability as the tournament approaches.

A Scare for UConn Fans as Bueckers Exits Game

During UConn’s dominant 91-49 win over Seton Hall, a moment of concern sent shockwaves through the Huskies’ fan base. Just before halftime, Bueckers took a shot at the buzzer, then immediately grabbed her knee and limped off the court without waiting for assistance. Given her past struggles with knee injuries, the sight of her leaving the game in obvious discomfort was enough to unsettle both head coach Geno Auriemma and the UConn faithful. Some people believe she did it on purpose to avoid interviews because of a gesture she made at the end of the game against South Carolina.

— UConn on SNY (@SNYUConn) February 20, 2025

Despite the alarming scene before halftime, Bueckers returned in the third quarter to ease the fears – for now. UConn was already in control, leading 40-26 at the break, but Bueckers re-entered the game and finished with a stellar performance. She finished with a game-high 23 points, nine rebounds and five assists, proving that even at less than 100 percent, she remains a dominant force. With three games left in the regular season, all eyes will be on her knee to see if it can withstand the intensity of March Madness.

A Career Defined by Overcoming Injuries

Injuries have been a constant challenge for Bueckers. As a freshman, she led UConn to the Final Four and set the school record for assists, but her sophomore season was derailed by a left knee injury. She managed to return and help the Huskies reach the national championship game, where they lost to South Carolina. The following year, she suffered a torn ACL that forced her to miss the entire season. Last year, she bounced back with a stellar campaign, earning unanimous first-team All-American honors and leading UConn to the Final Four, where they lost a close battle to Caitlin Clark’s Iowa squad. Barring any setbacks, Bueckers is the clear favorite to go No. 1 in the WNBA Draft. While comparisons to Clark are inevitable, Bueckers has one last chance to do what Clark never did – win a national championship.
