A&lt;b&gt; video titled &lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;“LeBron James Introductory Press Conference”&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt; appeared on the Miami Heat official YouTube channel&lt;/b&gt;, complete with a scheduled date of July 27.

Two‑time MVP, Defensive Player of the Year, Most Improved Player, 10‑time All‑Star (and MVP in 2021), seven First‑Team All‑NBA selections, four First‑Team All‑Defense nods, NBA Cup champion and MVP, Magic Johnson Award winner, a spot among the NBA’s 75 greatest players ever — and, of course, the &lt;b&gt;2021 NBA championship and Finals MVP&lt;/b&gt;. He even added a &lt;b&gt;EuroBasket bronze&lt;/b&gt; in 2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/nba/giannis-leaves-milwaukee-the-end-of-an-era-for-the-bucks-and-the-dawn-of-a-new-superteam-in-miami-f202607-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Back‑to‑back MVPs&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Defensive Player of the Year&lt;/strong&gt; in the same season as his second MVP — a feat previously achieved only by &lt;strong&gt;Michael Jordan&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Hakeem Olajuwon&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;David Robinson&lt;/strong&gt;, and &lt;strong&gt;Kevin Garnett&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;30.2 points, 12.8 rebounds, 5.1 assists&lt;/strong&gt; per game in the postseason&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;35.2 points, 13.2 rebounds, 5 assists&lt;/strong&gt; in the Finals&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;A legendary &lt;strong&gt;50‑point closeout game&lt;/strong&gt; with 14 rebounds and 5 blocks&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;One of the most memorable moment of the ESPYs on Wednesday came when &lt;b&gt;Jason Collins was honored at the ceremony with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award&lt;/b&gt;, recognizing a life and career that extended far beyond basketball.

Free agency’s first wave has come and gone, teams have spent their money, rosters are filling up — and the 37‑year‑old former MVP is still without a home. Not only has he failed to attract a serious offer, he hasn’t even sparked much conversation. Fans aren’t debating his next landing spot, and front offices aren’t circling his name.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/nba/why-the-nba-has-turned-its-back-on-russell-westbrook-f202607-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;421 players&lt;/strong&gt; were more efficient than him last season.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;He finished with the &lt;strong&gt;sixth‑highest turnover rate&lt;/strong&gt; in the league (18.5%).&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;He ranked &lt;strong&gt;120th in field‑goal percentage&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;189th in true shooting&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;He needed &lt;strong&gt;13 touches&lt;/strong&gt; per made basket last season — far too many for a low‑usage role.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;In &lt;strong&gt;18 NBA seasons&lt;/strong&gt;, he has never reached &lt;strong&gt;35% from three&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;When he’s off the ball, he doesn’t space the floor or punish defenses.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

After the d&lt;b&gt;epartures of LeBron James and Rui Hachimura&lt;/b&gt;, the 23‑year‑old Congo‑born forward has become the Lakers’ priority. But talks with the&lt;b&gt; Atlanta Hawks&lt;/b&gt; are anything but simple. According to Marc Stein and Jake Fischer, &lt;b&gt;Atlanta &lt;/b&gt;has already rejected an opening offer built around &lt;b&gt;Jarred Vanderbilt&lt;/b&gt; and a &lt;b&gt;2032 first‑round pick swap&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/nba/lakers-zero-in-on-jonathan-kuminga-as-their-next-big-swing-f202607-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;The conversation around &lt;b&gt;Caitlin&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Clark&lt;/b&gt; has escalated quickly, but it’s no longer just about basketball. Over the past few weeks, the Indiana Fever star has been &lt;b&gt;at the center of repeated on-court incident&lt;/b&gt;s, including hard fouls, controversial no-calls, and a recent play that resulted in a suspension after contact to her throat. At the same time, debates about how physically she’s being defended, and whether officials are doing enough to protect her, have spread across the league.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/nba/the-3-questions-lawmakers-are-asking-the-wnba-about-caitlin-clark-f202607-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;This is the summer of real change for the Lakers. The team is now more aligned with &lt;b&gt;the model that new owner Mark Walter wants to implement &lt;/b&gt;than with the one inherited from the multibillion-dollar purchase from the Jerry Buss family, especially his daughter Jeanie Buss. Over the past month, those changes have been visible in areas off the court, with a&lt;b&gt; focus on finances and tightening budgets&lt;/b&gt; to make the acquisition profitable. On the court, however, things haven’t quite followed the same path.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/nba/luka-doncic-turns-up-the-pressure-on-lakers-ahead-of-crucial-summer-f202606-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

What you probably &lt;i&gt;wouldn’t&lt;/i&gt; guess is that &lt;b&gt;Mikal Bridges &lt;/b&gt;has been hitting Chipotle at least five times a week for more than a decade, ordering the exact same thing every time: a Burrito Bowl with rice, no beans, double chicken, lettuce, and mild and medium salsa.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/nba/mikal-bridges-secret-to-never-missing-a-game-isnt-chipotle-its-everything-else-f202606-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Bojan Bogdanović&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Four unprotected first‑round picks (2025, 2027, 2029, 2031)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;A protected 2025 first (from Milwaukee)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;A 2028 pick swap&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;A 2025 second&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Shake Milton and Mamadi Diakite&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Rumored offers for Giannis Antetokounmpo? Around &lt;strong&gt;three&lt;/strong&gt; first‑rounders.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Rudy Gobert’s infamous trade? Four players, four firsts, plus Walker Kessler (effectively another first).&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Kevin Durant to Houston and Luka Dončić to the Lakers? Each moved for just &lt;strong&gt;one&lt;/strong&gt; first‑round pick.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;With the 2026 NBA Draft just days away, the debate over who should go No. 1 overall has taken a turn. According to &lt;a href="https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/46886245/2026-nba-draft-big-board-rankings-top-100-prospects-players" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" title="https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/46886245/2026-nba-draft-big-board-rankings-top-100-prospects-players"&gt;Jeremy Woo’s final big board for ESPN&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;b&gt;Darryn Peterson has officially overtaken AJ Dybantsa as the top prospect&lt;/b&gt; in the class, a late shift that reflects just how dominant Peterson’s rise has been over the past year.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/nba/the-case-for-no-1-why-darryn-peterson-is-climbing-past-aj-dybantsa-f202606-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>
