Magic Johnson Makes Wild Claim About Victor Wembanyama

by

Magic Johnson is the best point guard to ever play the game of basketball. At this point, most NBA fans can agree that this is a fact. He won five championships with the Los Angeles Lakers and mesmerized fans with his passing. Overall, he is probably a top-five player to ever step on an NBA court.

If you’re a fan of Johnson, then you know that he still loves the game of basketball. Sure, he doesn’t work for the Lakers anymore, however, he is always trying to evaluate talent. So much so that he is now weighing in on the current consensus number-one overall prospect for the 2023 NBA Draft.

Magic Johnson Speaks

That man is none other than Victor Wembanyama. At 7’4,” Wembanyama is looking like an absolute beast of a player. He is killing it over in France and subsequently, teams believe he can be their savior. As for Magic Johnson, he believes the kid is better than just good.

“I had the chance to meet and talk to the best player in the world and this year’s number one pick in the NBA draft Victor Wembanyama!” Johnson said. Yes, you read that right. Johnson is actually claiming that Wembanyama is the best player in the entire world.

As you can see in the tweets below, many found this to be incredibly bold. Overall, Wembanyama has yet to do anything at the pro level. For all we know, he could wind up being a huge bust. However, Magic seems to have a ton of confidence in the young man.

Let us know what you think of Magic’s prediction, in the comments down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the sports world.

Bronny James Jr. Reportedly Eyeing This School

by

Bronny James Jr. is currently the most famous college recruit out there right now. While he may not be the top-ranked recruit, he still has all of the name recognition in the world. Overall, colleges want Bronny as he is a solid all-around player who is also very marketable.

However, Bronny has yet to make a decision as to where he wants to go. For the most part, there has been this sense that he will go to Ohio State. After all, that is where LeBron would have gone had he participated in the college game. Regardless, he has yet to make any commitments.

Bronny Out West?

According to an interview with Yahoo Sports!, K.J Evans, a top recruit this year, wants Bronny to join him in Oregon. The Oregon Ducks have a legendary program and based on what Evans is saying, James is very intrigued about joining the squad.

“[Bronny] told me he likes Oregon, and I want him to visit there,” Evans said. “Everyone that’s coming in is unselfish. We all cut, move and don’t hold the ball too long, so it’s going to benefit him. Bronny can be more of a playmaker and a shot creator, and I think we would play really well together.”

Oregon isn’t too far from California, so it makes sense for him to go there. Of course, there are still other teams he could join, and it’s just a matter of time before he makes that decision.

Let us know which school you think Bronny should attend, in the comments down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from the basketball world.

by

Luka Doncic has been running the NBA this season. Sure, his Mavericks don’t have the best roster, however, Doncic is carrying that team on a nightly basis. Just about a month ago, he came through with that epic 60-21-10 game that was unprecedented. Overall, he could be the leading candidate for the MVP trophy.

Having said that, Doncic stands to make a lot of money over the next few years. He is a top-five player in the league, and he is being paid as such. In just a few years, he will be staring down a Super Max deal, and only time will tell whether or not he will still be in Dallas when he signs it.

Luka Doncic Buys Crazy Vehicle

When you have a lot of money, sometimes it is hard to find something to spend it on. Well, it appears as though Doncic has opted for a Hellfire Apocalypse, which might as well be a military-grade tank. According to TMZ, Doncic paid a whopping $250K for this thing.

Down below, you can see a pretty clear video of this thing. Overall, it is massive as it looks like a hybrid between a jeep and an actual tank. Additionally, there are six wheels here, which makes this even more impressive. Moreover, the vehicle has 850 horsepower, night vision, a safe, and a massive stereo system that could shatter a few windows.

Just a few days ago, Doncic pulled up to a Mavericks game in this thing. His peers were very impressed with the new whip, and there is no doubt he will turn heads on the streets of Dallas.

Paul George Puts Alleged Hit & Run Perpetrator On Blast

by

Paul George and the Los Angeles Clippers are in the midst of a fairly inconsistent season. With Kawhi Leonard experiencing injuries, the Clippers simply have not found the momentum they were hoping for. However, they do have a solid roster that could make a splash in the postseason.

For George, this stint in Los Angeles has been all about proving himself. He has tried to get over the whole “Playoff P” nickname that has plagued him for years. Overall, it has been hard to shake off, but he is starting to show that he can be a clutch player.

Paul George Goes Off

Recently, Paul George was involved in a car accident. Typically, car accidents are incredibly annoying as they can be costly, dangerous, and in some cases traumatizing. However, the accident George was involved in allegedly turned into a hit and run, and George was able to ta capture a photo of the perpetrator.

Essentially, George was driving his new car and was hit. Subsequently, the kid driving had no interest in solving the issue and just drove off. Consequently, this led to George posting a photo on social media where he is now looking for any leads.

“Anybody know this kid is? DM me,” he wrote. “This kid hit and run my brand new car today then dipped without giving me his driver’s license. If you know him tag him.”

Overall, this is a pretty bad look for the kid in question. Although, he is probably going to get some street cred at school as the guy who hit Paul George and ran away.

“He’s SIMPLY a GREAT ALL-AROUND PLAYER but most importantly The GREATEST KID EVER!!! Oh and he’s a PRO too!” LeBron said.

Lakers Reportedly Targeting This Young Knicks Star

by

If you are a Lakers fan, you know that your team is in need of some help right now. They are starting to fall behind in the Western Conference, and it is going to take a small miracle to actually make the playoffs. Overall, it is just a negative situation, especially with Anthony Davis gone.

In just a couple of weeks from now, it will be the trade deadline. Of course, the trade deadline is one of the best opportunities for a team to get better. However, it will be hard for the Lakers to do anything as their assets have dwindled over the last few years.

Lakers & Knicks

According to Sean Deveney of Heavy.com, the Lakers are reportedly looking toward a young player for the New York Knicks. That player just so happens to be Cam Reddish. Reddish is a player who some feel hasn’t truly gotten a fair shake with the teams he has played for.

Moreover, in terms of assets that would be going back to New York, it is believed that Patrick Beverley and Kendrick Nunn would have to be part of the deal. Overall, this is not the biggest trade the Lakers could do, however, every little bit helps at this point.

LeBron James wants to win his fifth title, and the Lakers cannot do it as presently constructed. However, it’s hard to see Reddish truly moving the needle here. No matter what, the Lakers need more.

Strong all-around performance.”
