Terrible setback for Scoot. He was primed to have his breakout year.

Nardwuar x SGA

Didn't see that one coming, must be the Canadian connection. SGA is such a good sport.

Euroleague season starts today, with a new team joining the league, Dubai Basketball.

Just wondering if we would one day see a shocking event like Dubai Basketball signing a huge NBA superstar like Wembanyama to a multi-year contract? It already happened in football, so I guess it's possible in basketball also.

Dubai already spent last season playing Adriatic league (ABA League= defacto ex Yugoslavia countries regional league ).

OT, Euroleague started today, always interesting to see X NBA players who debut in Euroleague, lots of those this year. I just wanted to share Oshae Brissett's look, because he either went for Einstein or anime old man look, but it is fabulous (tried to prnt screen it, but get back screen, so I had to use a phone)
