Diddy Looks To Fix “The Worst Jump Shot A Black Man Can Have” With Lethal Shooter: Watch

November 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

There is a running theme between rappers and basketball stars. Some wish they could switch careers with each other. The respect and correlation between hoopers and MCs goes back decades now and it is a cool thing to see. Over time, artists have been seen hooping at rec gyms or in the NBA All-Star Weekend Celebrity Game. Some have done quite well such as Quavo, 2 Chainz, and a few others. However, there are others who just cannot seem to make the effortless transition from mic to ball. One of those is Diddy.

Like Diddy, there are plenty of people who have called on Lethal Shooter to help them work on their shooting mechanics. Recently, Rick Ross was one of them. While he did get roasted by fans, it seems that Lethal Shooter (Chris Matthews) can help improve anyone’s skills. He and Diddy hit the court to clean up his shot.

A post shared by NBA Shooting Coach ( Chris Matthews ) (@lethalshooter)

HipHopDX was kind enough to include some of the hilarious commentary from Diddy in the video. Lethal Shooter shared the work they put in on his Instagram. After nailing a couple of shots, Diddy hit the front of the rim, grabbed the ball, and threw it. In a funny moment, he shouts, “Motherf****r!” A little later he reveals that he has “the worst jump shot that a Black man can have.” To be honest, though, DJ Khaled might have the worst one of them all. Look it up if you have the time, you will see what we mean.

What are your initial thoughts on Diddy and Lethal Shooter (Chris Matthews) working on his jump shot together? Could Diddy be the rapper with the best shooting stroke? Is Lethal Shooter the best shooting coach of all time? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.

LeBron James Confirms Bronny Is Headed “In The Right Direction” Following Cardiac Arrest

November 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

LeBron James says that his son, Bronny, is headed “in the right direction,” after suffering cardiac arrest during a USC practice in July. He provided the update while speaking with reporters at a post-game press conference on Monday.

“Things are going in the right direction with Bronny’s progress,” LeBron said. “He’s doing rehab. Every week he gets to do more and more and more. We have a big moment at the end of this month to see if we can continue to go forward. If he’s cleared, we’ll be not too long away from him being back on the floor and back with his teammates and practicing, with the notion of being back on the floor and playing in game situations.”

Bronny James Attends USC Vs. San Jose State

Bronny went into cardiac arrest while participating in a basketball workout at the university in July. The next month, his family announced he was diagnosed with “an anatomically and functionally significant congenital heart defect.” Then, in October, LeBron confirmed that Bronny underwent “successful” surgery to correct the problem. “Bronny is doing extremely well. He’s began his rehab to get back on the floor this season.” USC Basketball coach Andy Enfield also confirmed that Bronny wasn’t practicing to start the season but added: “Bronny’s doing very well, but we just can’t comment on anything medically. He’s going to class and doing extremely well in school, and we’re really excited for him.”

Bronny committed to play his college basketball at USC, earlier this year. At the time, LeBron said it was “one of the best days of my life.” Be on the lookout for further updates on when Bronny hits the court for USC on HotNewHipHop.

Aaron Rodgers Says He Might Be Returning From His Achilles Injury In “A Few Weeks:” Watch

November 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

When Aaron Rodgers went down with his unfortunate achilles tear everyone thought that the New York Jets season was lost. Even after the highly maligned Zach Wilson stepped in and led them to a thrilling win over the division-rival Buffalo Bills, no one was convinced. However, the defense has been pretty much lights out and Zach has made some plays. This was good enough for them to go on a three-game winning streak. They did come back to earth against the Los Angeles Chargers last night, losing 27-6 and dropping to 4-4.

But, the season is still far from over for these Jets. They are in the thick of the playoff race. They are just a few spots behind the Cincinnati Bengals for the final wildcard spot. On top of that, multiple people have claimed that if they remain in the hunt, Rodgers would try to rush back and play. It would be quite a miracle, though. TMZ Sports says that the fastest anyone has recovered from an achilles tear was Minnesota Vikings running back Cam Akers. That took around five and a half months. But, Aaaron has been making serious progress and apparently, it could be in no time that we see him take the field.

Aaron Rodgers Teases A Possible Comeback

Right after the game, the players ran to centerfield to chat. Two of those were Aaron and Chargers stud safety, Derwin James. He asked the injured quarterback when he would be coming back right away. Interestingly, Aaron had this to say to him, “Give me a few weeks.” With the cameras rolling this could all be a ruse, but with his recovery process maybe he is telling the truth.

What are your initial thoughts on Aaron Rodgers saying he might be returning to action in “a few weeks?” Do you believe him, or was he just being aware that the cameras were on him? If he comes back, will the New York Jets be a threat in the playoffs? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest breaking news around Aaron Rodgers, as well as everything else going on around the sports world.

Jordan Poole Clarifies Ice Spice $500K Date Rumor

November 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Jordan Poole has found himself in a completely new situation this season. Overall, Poole is now one of the stars of the Washington Wizards. Although he was a star in Golden State, it was clear that he didn’t get along with some of the players over there. Among them was Draymond Green who punched him incredibly hard in practice. Now, Poole gets to play alongside Kyle Kuzma, who is much more chill on the court. So far, the team has not been great, but they have certainly been extremely entertaining.

Last year, a rumor surrounding Jordan Poole was making the rounds on social media. This rumor involved none other than Ice Spice and was perpetuated by Cam’ron on It Is What It Is. Essentially, it was said that Poole had spent $500K on a date with Spice. Recently, according to HipHopDX, Poole told a fan that all of these rumors are cap. When the kid asked “is that Ice Spice thing true,” Poole replied: “definitely not.”

When Cam’ron brought this up months ago, he was adamant that it was real. “Jordan Poole, you spent $500,000 on an Ice Spice date,” Cam explained. “You’re a munch and you’re playing like a fucking munch. This is not you from last year, bro. Go back to Milwaukee and figure it the fuck out and get back in the playoffs ’cause you look crazy. ‘Cause I had your back last year. You got n****s out here talking ’bout, ‘What was all that Jordan Poole you was poppin’?’ You fuckin a munch. Nah, he’s a munch, ’cause I had his back.”

At this point, Poole isn’t too offended by any of these narratives. Instead, he just wants to have fun and play some basketball. You can tell by his antics on the court that he is, indeed, having a lot of fun. Let us know your thoughts on his response, in the comments section below.

Neymar Jr. Mohawk Inspires Saint West’s Bold New Haircut

November 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It feels like just yesterday when Kim Kardashian and Kanye West confirmed news of their first pregnancy with fans. Now, the pair share four young children, though their marriage unfortunately didn’t last. For the most part, North, Saint West, Chicago, and Psalm spend their time in California at the socialite’s luxury mansion. We saw plenty of content being captured there this past Halloween, as Kardashian proudly showed off her kids and their annual costumes.

The reality star’s second born, Saint, had to undergo a pretty serious change to complete his look. After letting his beautiful, black, bouncy curls grow for some time, Kim finally gave the 7-year-old permission to shave much of his hair off as a tribute to one of his favourite soccer stars. Neymar Jr. is the athlete who inspired West’s bold new look, and the young boy was surely feeling himself when he glanced in the mirror and saw his hero’s mohawk staring back at hm.

Kim Kardashian Shows Off Her Growing Boy

Seeing as Halloween is typically a time for terrifying antics, Saint opted to make his jersey kit look battered and bloody. According to Kardashian’s Instagram Story from a few days ago, he was going for a “Zombie Neymar” look, which we think the nepo baby nailed. Earlier this year he had the opportunity to meet the footballer in-person, along with several other players whom he idolizes.

As Saint West opted to pay tribute to one of his favourite athletes for Halloween 2023, his big sister showed off her creativity with a number of cool costumes. The 10-year-old dressed up as their father’s iconic Graduation era bear, one of The Cheetah Girls, and even recreated scenes from Clueless with her mom. It was likely hard for Kim K to watch her little boy say goodbye to his curls, but so far, the internet is all for Saint’s new look. Tell us your thoughts in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Taylor Swift Invited Chiefs Wives And Girlfriends Over To Watch Their Game In Germany

November 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Even though the Taylor Swift sightings at Kansas City Chiefs games have seemed to dwindle, she is still doing what she can to support. This past Sunday marked an important day in the NFL’s history, as they continue to expand the game to other countries. We have seen some great matchups take place in London, now we can expect more in Frankfurt, Germany.

The first one to take place happened to be the Chiefs and the “visiting” Miami Dolphins. It was a bit of a snoozer at the end of the first half. Travis Kelce and his team led 21-0. Then, Miami finally began to wake up and cut to seven heading into the fourth quarter. The Dolphins had a shot to tie with around a minute remaining but squandered the opportunity. Kelce was not his normal dominant self, hauling in just three catches for 14 yards. However, it was still good enough for him to be the leading receiver in franchise history, surpassing their former tight end, Tony Gonzalez.

Taylor Swift Continues To Ingratiate Herself

As we said, Taylor did not make the long flight over to Europe to watch her man play, but she did host a watch party. According to TMZ Sports, the superstar pop singer was at her pad in New York for it. Brittany Mahomes was also in attendance. The whole group even went to a place called Casa Cipriani to celebrate the thrilling win. Love can be sent from afar too ya know.

What are your initial thoughts on Taylor Swift inviting some of the Chiefs players’ significant others over to watch the game in Germany? Is this a serious step in her and Travis Kelce’s relationship? Do you actually buy that the tight end plays better when she is in attendance? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest breaking news around Taylor Swift, as well as everything else going on in the pop culture world.

Jorge Masvidal Puts Colby Covington Assault Case To Bed

November 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington got into a pretty gnarly situation after the two fought in the Octagon for real. Overall, it did not end well for either party. On one end, you had Covington who lost a tooth and who was concussed. Meanwhile, Masvidal was charged with aggravated assault and criminal mischief charges. Needless to say, this was not a good look for Masvidal, who had just lost his fight. Now, however, there is a new development in the case that is good for Gamebred.

According to TMZ, Jorge Masvidal will not face any punishment for what took place. There will be no jail time, and additionally, there will be no probation. By pleading no contest to misdemeanor battery, the MMA star was able to get his two previous charges scrubbed from the record. While Masvidal has not claimed guilt in this, guilt will appear on his record. Effectively, that is the only punishment that the fighter has to face.

Jorge Masvidal Speaks

In the video which can be found above, Masvidal is with his lawyer and he can be seen celebrating some of his newfound freedom. He continuously shouted out to the lawyer for his services, and there is no doubt that he was excited about how things were turning out for him. At this point, it remains to be seen what Masvidal decides to do next in terms of his fighting career. The UFC opportunities have not been plentiful, but he still has something left in the tank.

Hopefully, we get to see him in the Octagon again, sometime soon. In the meantime, let us know what you think of this development, in the comments section below. Also, who do you want to see Masvidal fight next? Who has the best shot at giving him another win? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the MMA world.
