Klay Thompson’s Father Gives Update On Achilles Injury

Klay Thompson has been struggling with injuries over the past couple of seasons and as a result, he hasn’t been able to hit the court. Last year, Thompson missed the Warriors season with an ACL tear and in 2021, he is missing the season with an Achilles injury. This has been devastating to Klay and his teammates although he is as determined as ever to get back into the lineup and compete for a title.

Thompson’s father Mychal Thompson has been offering updates on his son and recently, he got to speak to reporters about where Thompson is in his rehab. As he explains, Thompson is limited in what he can do although he feels at home with his teammates.

“All that [Klay] can do right now is just pool therapy, walking, stuff like that,” Thompson said via NBC Sports. “He’s doing much better this year because he’s around the team. Being away from the team, you feel isolated, you don’t feel like you’re a part of it. Even though he’s not playing, just being on the bench and supporting the guys, he feels like he’s a part of it.”

While Thompson is still a long way from being healthy, Thompson’s determination should come as great news for Warriors fans who have been waiting on some good news. As Thompson continues to march through with rehab, we will continue to update you on his condition.

Kyle and Josh Golden Deliver A Bubbly Love Song On “But Cha”

Kyle has always been one of those artists who radiates positivity in his art. After getting famous off of his hit track “I Spy,” Kyle has managed to keep the same energy he started out his career with, and after every new release, he is able to grab fans with some catchy and bubbly tracks. His latest effort matches those aforementioned vibes as he recently teamed up with the likes of Josh Golden for a track called “But Cha.”

Quotable Lyrics:

You way out of my leaguе and we know it (We know it)

And we go back, Nikes and throwbacks

Mo3 Murder Suspect, Kewon White, Indicted On Murder Charge

Last November, Hip-Hop fans everywhere learned about the tragic passing of yet another beloved rapper. Reports surfaced that Dallas’ own Mo3 had tragically been shot and killed on a Dallas freeway. In a year in which violence also took the lives of artists such as Pop Smoke and King Von, fans especially grieved over the tragic loss of Mo3. Roughly three weeks following his passing, reports revealed that then-21-year-old Kewon Dontrell White was arrested and accused of killing the Dallas rapper.

This week, White received a major update on his current legal situation. According to The Dallas Morning News, Dallas County grand jurors indicted the now-22-year-old on a murder charge pertaining to the November highway shooting death of Mo3. Although footage provided by Dallas police officer’s depict Mo3’s shooter wearing a ski mask, law enforcement reportedly believes White to be the shooter.

Reports reveal that White will remain in federal custody due to a previous felony conviction until he stands trial in federal court in April. He could face up to life in prison with the possibility of parole if convicted.

As reports earlier this week have shown, families of the victims in situations like these don’t always wish prison on the opposing party. Do you think that Kewon White should face jail time for the charges brought against him?

Anthony Davis Reveals LeBron James’ Opinion Of MVP Awards

LeBron James has won a ton of individual awards throughout his time in the NBA, including the MVP trophy. Over the past few years, LeBron has been passed up for other players, which has led to a ton of debate about who actually deserves the award. Last year was especially controversial after LeBron lost out to the likes of Giannis Antetokounmpo.

While speaking to reporter Bill Oram of The Athletic, LeBron’s teammate Anthony Davis was asked about the MVP award and whether James even cares about it. As AD explained, the Lakers star couldn’t care less about the individual accolades, as all he wants to win are the championships.

“Put it to you like this,” Davis said. “I know that that man does not care about MVP awards. He cares about championships. So if he loses the MVP and wins the championship like he did last year, he doesn’t care. So that’s what his mindset is, he’s not focused on MVPs. He’s focused on Finals MVPs.”

This is the kind of mentality you want on your team, as it’s one that looks to advance the team rather than one specific individual. As a result of LeBron’s mentality, the Lakers were able to win the championship last season, and now, they look poised to do some damage again in the playoffs.

Needless to say, the Lakers are lucky to have LeBron right now.

Once again drawn from the classic Brian De Palma film Scarface, the picture depicts a stylized image of Tony Montana’s meeting with Alejandro Sosa. Alongside the image, Benny opted to share a brief hype-inducing message, though he maintained that the work would ultimately speak for itself. 

“Me and @harryfraud linked up on ni**as I could sit here and type a bunch of shit but y’all know my work and if u don’t where the fuck u been,” writes The Butcher, prompting a surge of excited comment from some of his hip-hop peers. Curren$y chimed in with “There it go,” while Lloyd Banks opted to deliver three fire emojis for good measure; we can only hope to see verses from both parties. On that note, The Butcher has decided to keep the features under wraps for now. It should be noted that the first Plugs I Met had appearances from Black Thought, Pusha T, Jadakiss, Conway The Machine, and more. 

Look for The Plugs I Met 2 to land on March 19th. For more from Benny, read our exclusive interview with the Buffalo emcee right here

The Michigan and Memphis artists link up over OG Parker’s bouncy West Coast-inspired production for a braggadocious new single.

Do you have high hopes for DDG and OG Parker’s impending joint project DIE 4 RESPECT?

Quotable Lyrics

Humble as fuck, but I know that I’m lit though
I spent two mill on my crib, that ain’t shit though
I spent a million on whips, still rich though
I know they sleep, that’s okay, they can get woke, bitch

Casanova Laments Over Diminished Support While In Jail

Casanova has been going through a rough time as he is currently in prison on charges of Conspiracy to Commit Racketeering, Conspiracy to Distribute Controlled Substances, and Possession of a Firearm in Furtherance of a Drug Trafficking Crime. The rapper was recently denied bond, and to stay grounded, he has been receiving frequent visits from his wide Swaggy Jazzy who has offered numerous updates on his condition.

The rapper has been able to use social media during his time in jail, and recently, he had some strong words for those who have shown him fake love. In fact, it seems like Casanova hasn’t been getting very few visits, which has been disheartening considering he isn’t too far outside of the city.

“They saying free me on the internet, I’m a hour away ain’t get a visit yet…hope that don’t go over your head…,” Casanova explained. The rapper shared a similar sentiment in screenshots that were posted to Instagram but ultimately deleted. In these screenshots, Casanova reposted his own tweets that shared quotes like “Keep your personal business to yourself and move in silence. Remember, your friends got friends you don’t f*** with.”

Dealing with something of this magnitude can certainly mess with someone’s mental health, so hopefully, Casanova’s support system pulls through for him. As for his case, we will continue to bring you all of the latest updates on the proceedings.
