  1. Duke’s Kon Knueppel has declared for the NBA draft. Duke freshman Kon Knueppel announced Wednesday on social media that he will enter the 2025 NBA draft and forgo his remaining college eligibility. Knueppel, the No. 8 prospect in ESPN's NBA draft projections, was Duke's second-leading scorer this season behind Cooper Flagg, averaging 14.4 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game while shooting 40.6% from 3-point range. He was named to the ACC All-Freshman team and All-ACC second team and helped lead the Blue Devils to the Final Four, where they lost in the semifinals to Houston. EDITOR'S PICKS Updated NBA mock draft: Two rounds, 59 picks and landing spots for tourney stars 6dJonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo Knueppel stepped up in a major way in the ACC tournament when Flagg went down early in the quarterfinals with an ankle injury, posting 63 points, 17 rebounds and 14 assists in three games to help Duke win the title, being named tournament MVP. He played an essential role in Duke's 35-4 season, shouldering significant shot-creation duties while spacing the floor effectively and holding his own defensively. He is an outstanding passer and saw quite a bit of offense operating out of pick-and-roll. He formed a unique tandem with Duke center Khaman Maluach, finding him 24 times this season for lob dunks. Knueppel brings a combination of competitiveness, feel for the game and versatility that will likely make him a seamless fit on any NBA roster. Hailing from Milwaukee, Knueppel wasn't named to last year's McDonald's All American Game despite leading the Nike EYBL grassroots circuit in scoring for three straight years at the 15U, 16U and 17U levels with Phenom University. He was named Wisconsin Player of the Year as a senior. His mother, Chari, is still the all-time leading scorer at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, while his father, also named Kon, scored more than 2,000 points at Division III Wisconsin Lutheran College. The NBA draft combine will be held May 11-18 in Chicago, and the draft will be June 25-26 in New York.

  2. I have an aunt who lived in White Plains when my family visited her family back when I was 12, so this hits close to home.
  3. …and Persian. …and black. …and Hispanic. …and 👽.
  4. He’ll be getting all of that anal sex out of his system so that he can focus on football when he comes back.
  5. …with a “K”, right?
  6. Percentage that matters followed by one that doesn’t exactly.
  7. Did he set the CU record for career sacks in only two years or something? EDIT:
  8. This is such a troll post that it wouldn’t have occurred to me to post it here, because it’s not even close to being believable. I prefer the posts that are at least possibly legit.
  9. Who said that (Austin, TX) Shirley from “What’s Happening?” is a lesbian?
  10. Are the coaches allowed to teach Weaver to shoot this offseason? Or is he on his own until October?
  11. Ummm… That “dude” looking at that ass… …has her own vagina, so…
  12. Just looked up Teri McKeever… Not worth getting fired with cause over. Even this guy👇 wouldn’t.
  13. 🤘 Big Floppy Hook’em!
  14. Golden State selected Kaitlyn Chen (Princeton => UCONN this year) in the 3rd round. She’s pretty good, and I have a gut feeling that they will figure out a way to market a Chinese-American from California (San Marino in SoCal/LA County) in the San Francisco area. It may be a stretch, but there may be a few locals who might see her as an inspiration.
  15. PS- Just opened “ESPN.com” on my phone and this is what I saw. Main page… is Paige. PS- I did not think that she was a lesbian due to her dropping religious crap through her interviews, but many Jesus is her beard. She totally gives off a dyke vibe and without makeup and filters, she’s a bit rough, but still thought that she walked with Jesus and hoped to marry a man someday. If she is a lesbian, she still has crossover appeal. Caitlin never references religion… (Thank god.)
  16. Why are they listing Arkansas with an “A” that is nearly indistinguishable from Alabama’s “A”? Why aren’t they using this fucking image?
  17. Paige was a bigger star than Caitlin until she tore up her knee. Paige grew up with Jalen Suggs in Minnesota and the press couldn’t get enough of the two of them both having major impacts on college basketball as freshmen at basketball powers on opposite sides of the country. Paige won the national player of the year… AS A FRESHMAN! …and then she tore her knee up and the (white) spotlight turned to that other white female player from the Midwest who had been playing in Paige’s shadow. Paige won’t raise the public’s awareness the same percentage that Caitlin did, because that is impossible due to the starting point for Caitlin, but she will continue to raise the game’s awareness and her road games will be full, just like Caitlin’s.
  18. 1) Yes, the name is ridiculous. 2) Ben Shelton absolutely should have lost in straight sets. Then he should have lost in 3 sets… But his opponent choked the shit out of the closing points in the 2nd & 3rd set. The other guy even won 3 more points than Ben in the match. Cojo 🇭🇷 vs Shelton 🇺🇸
  19. With regards to the WTA’s 2025 Race rankings (how many points has each player accumulated in 2025 alone), the USA has 4 girls in the Top 10 and 7 players in the Top 20.
  20. Well… If they break, at least the spring practice reports make it sound like we have depth this year.
  21. I think that I read that a jury trial (or at least a hearing) was scheduled for tomorrow. He likely would have had to serve some time and then might have had an opportunity after paying his debt to society.
  22. Was reading Post #38 thinking, “Kobe knew a thing or two about that.”… Post #39 said it perfectly.
  23. My guess is that he learned this legal tactic shit at Alabama. I can’t see Sark & Co. teaching this to bad apples.
