In his latest episode of “The BIG Podcast,” Shaq was asked by co-host Adam Lefkoe the minimum amount of points the USA men’s Olympic basketball team should be winning their games by.

Mandatory Credit: Denny Medley-USA TODAY Sports San Francisco 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan raised some eyebrows Thursday when he and team president John Lynch had a widely-scrutinized interaction with disgruntled wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk. The video from Thursday’s practice showed Aiyuk cordially greeting both Lynch and Shanahan in the midst of his ongoing training camp holdout. Depending on one’s perspective, the interaction suggested that either Aiyuk was closing in on…

After the game, the Greece team captain Papanikolaou took a ruthless swipe at Australia in a post to Instagram. The NBL (the top professional league in Australia) had a shady post before the game in which they…

As expected, Jacoby Brissett and rookie Drake Maye took the majority of QB reps in training camp practice on Friday. What was somewhat surprising is that rookie sixth-round pick Joe Milton operated as the third quarterback on the depth chart…
