41 Year old Lebron James
Lebron James is 41 years old and plays for the Los Angeles Lakers. Is he Superman? No, that was Dwight Howard’s thing.
What about Batman? People liked Batman but I do not think James can play Michael Keaton’s role as well, either.
It is Back to the Future featuring no Luka Doncic and Austin Reeves. They ousted their blood, sweat, and tears for a team looking at a good playoff shot. James is LeBron and just the other day lost to the Dallas Mavericks with rookie Cooper Flagg scoring 45 points.
It is obvious there is a paradigm shift happening when James starts to complain about Memphis and Milwaukee. If I had to tell you the truth, today, some of James’ Lakers milestones, especially the 2020 NBA season, do not hold much significance.
To give the benefit of the doubt, if James and Bronny make progress, there is a slim chance of playoffs success even depending on some of the health status. For now, the throne of James is still strong at 41 years old.

One Put, One Enters Transfer Portal
One stays put and the other continues her dominance as the No.2 scorer in the nation elsewhere. Audi Crooks has decided after a 14-0 start and negative stretch, she is entering the transfer portal.
She can return home to Minnesota or play around a tenacious defense such as Texas. Crooks is not so good on the defensive end and creates the most posting-up.
That scoring will continue just as the same comfortable suit as A’Ja Wilson. Wilson decided to stay in Las Vegas after continued success in winning multiple championships.
She signed a super max contract of $1.4 million after the new collective agreement only increased that number from $200,000.

Why is Jon Scheyer Receiving the Duke Treatment
Duke is no longer one of the greatest programs in college basketball. Despite what critics say about Isiah Evans, the Boozer brothers, and Dame Sarr. This team came nowhere close to the vision of Jon Scheyer.
Now, why is Scheyer receiving the Duke treatment after three consecutive Elite Eights and one Final Four appearance (2025)? He can compile all the top recruits, however. But cannot seem to assimilate a packaged NIL plan.
You know, the cable plans customers receive on their bills. There is an option of basic or premium and Scheyer is shooting all his Easter eggs in one bucket.
Mind you, Scheyer is the successor to Coach K and does not possess an inkling of championship experience, yet. If anything, we will see Scheyer back for one more rotten season and try to work the system in a new day and age of basketball.
Top Duke recruits are not always the end all, be alls of its collegiate sport.

UConn Advances to the Final Four
Braylon Mullins knocked down the game-winning shot to advance UConn to the Final Four. An unbelievable game from top to finish. The Huskies came back from 19 points down to win and knock in a shot, almost similar to Christian Laettner. What is also intriguing that UConn has a chance to repeat history with the 1970’s UCLA Bruins to win 3 of 4 National championships back to Connecticut!

Golden State Warriors Fight
The Golden State Warriors tried to prevent another catastrophic hurdle from happening last night and that was Moses Moody. The injury was described as if he had ‘buckled’ his knee.
Poor Golden State..
The Warriors also lost Jimmy Butler to a torn ACL and did not stunt what Lindsey Vonn tried to accomplish at the 2026 Winter Olympics. Coach Steve Kerr touted how Moody was progressing until injuring his knee.
This article would not be the same if Jonathan Kuminga was not mentioned. Kuminga is averaging 13 points per game and .601 eFG% meaning the Atlanta Hawks are entrusting in the former GSW to hit 3’s.
The lesson out of today’s article is Warriors fight. No matter what has happened, three core OG’s still stand. Draymond Green, Steve Kerr, and Stephen Curry and they have not stopped fighting from Day 1 and continue to stockpile wins from time to time. Let’s raise our glass to Moody for ambition, resilience and relentlessness.
Note: The Golden State Warriors currently rank 10th in the Play-in Tournament.
