April 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Deion Sanders has listed the NFL teams he would want his son Shadeur Sanders and his Colorado Teammate Travis Hunter to play for.

Sanders is confident that his son will be a top pick. Sanders also has a plethora of experience dealing with NFL teams. So, he knows the ins and outs of the draft process very well. Finding the right situation in the NFL is tough but very important. Additionally, the draft being out of players’ control adds to the uncertainty for rookies.

Protesting where you get drafted is a power move and one that the NFL does not like. But it is one Deion Sanders is comfortable making for his players.

He has big expectations of his two star players, who he previously said he expects to be top-4 picks in the NFL draft.

Wherever Shadeur Sanders and Travis Hunter are projected, Deion is prepared to guide them through the process. Sanders is making sure they end up in a good situation that will allow them to flourish.

Bronny James NBA Draft Odds Revealed

April 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Bronny James made waves by declaring for the 2024 NBA draft after a turbulent freshman season at USC. This decision has caused speculation about where he will end up in the NBA. After a difficult season with the Trojans, Bronny James has chosen to bet on himself to make it to the NBA. The move is a big risk especially after an underwhelming showing in college. Despite his struggles, there is obvious potential that teams will roll the dice on especially with his father LeBron wanting to eventually play in the NBA with Bronny.

Oddsmakers are predicting the most likely team Bronny James will end up on with some surprising insights on his draft prospects. The Lakers are an obvious place for Bronny, but other teams looking to acquire the services of LeBron James Sr. might take a gamble and try drafting Bronny in the second round of the 2024 NBA Draft. GMs around the league are skeptical of risking draft capital on a player that some think should return to school, but things can change very quickly as the draft process picks up this summer.

Bronny James Draft Odds

If Bronny keeps his name in the NBA Draft, which team will take him?

According to DraftKings Sportsbook, the Lakers are the hands-down favorite in acquiring Bronny James. It makes perfect sense. Lebron is the Lakers’ best player, and taking Bronny in the draft solidifies their relationship. Additionally, the move would keep The King happy and in Los Angeles. It’s no surprise a big market franchise like The New York Knicks are one of the more favored teams to acquire Bronny to try and pry LeBron away and bring him to the East Coast. Other noticeable teams include the Cleveland Cavaliers, which could be a potential homecoming, and the Philadelphia 76ers.

Bronny James may not get drafted. As a result, Bronny would be able to sign with any team like any other undrafted free agent. Moreover, Bronny still has the option to return to school for another year to increase his draft stock. Furthermore, James has overcome some serious health problems to get back on the court, which has clearly impacted his college play. Fans are still hyped about Bronny James and hoping for a bright future in the NBA.

Cam’ron went after Caitlyn Jenner during the latest episode of his and Mase’s It Is What It Is show. After the NFL legend passed away at the age of 76, earlier this week, Jenner wrote on Twitter: “Good Riddance.” Simpson was a controversial figure for decades following the infamous 1995 acquittal for the murder of his ex-wife and one of her friends. Despite this, he made frequent appearances on Cam and Mase’s show.

“I don’t understand how n****s is still convicting n****s [when] they won the case,” Cam said on Friday. “I seen muthafuckin’ Caitlyn Jenner write some sh*t — ‘Good riddance.’ Caitlyn Jenner, you killed n****s in Calabasas [while] talking ’bout paparazzi was chasing you. And you was Bruce! Nothing to do with transgender sh*t or nothing like that, but I’m just trying to say the paparazzi wasn’t on Bruce to where you had to be running to kill n****s. You ain’t Princess Di[ana], n***a. The fuck you mean the paparazzi was on you, n***a?”

You killed n****s, admitted to killing n****s and then paid n****s becasue you killed n****s.” He was referencing the 2015 car crash Jenner was involved in that claimed one life. Check out his and Mase’s full remarks below.

Kevin Durant Blasts Fat Joe For Claiming NBA Star “Almost Got Jumped” After Iconic Rucker Park Game

April 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

When you think of legendary moments in professional sports, let alone the NBA, what comes to mind? For many fans of the game, Kevin Durant’s unreal performance at the hallowed Rucker Park near Harlem, New York is one of them. The story goes that he dropped 66 points, which led his team to an unforgettable 99-93 victory. It went down during the 2011 lockout season and it will forever go down as one of the most unstoppable games that a professional has ever put on. The reason it is making waves nearly 13 years later is due to a retelling of the story by New York rap legend Fat Joe.

The longtime New York Knicks fan was a guest on Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart’s podcast, Roomates Show, according to HipHopDX. The current Knicks’ stars let him have the floor and Fat Joe wound up revealing a never before heard part of that game. “Kevin Durant scored like 82 points in the third quarter. He don’t like me telling this story. They chased him out the Rucker, like they wanted to beat him up. He whipped their a** so bad that they wanted to literally beat him up out there,” Joe said.

Another podcast lie. It was nothing but respect and love out there that night, didn’t feel unsafe for one second https://t.co/D1KgNWREhb

However, KD almost immediately called out his supposed bluff on X, replying to the clip, “Another podcast lie. It was nothing but respect and love out there that night, didn’t feel unsafe for one second.” Joe stood his ground though, hilariously taunting him back, “I was there he knows I’m not lying 62 points in 3 quarters why was the game stopped it’s all love all i did was big him up ‘GREATEST STORY TELLER IN THE GAME.’” Whoever’s side you believe, we are just happy this moment exists in basketball lore.

What are your thoughts on Kevin Durant saying Fat Joe lied about the fight at Rucker Park? Who do you believe more and why? Is this one of the greatest basketball moments in the history of the sport? NBA game or not, is this one of the best performances ever? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Cam’ron And Mase Pay Tribute To OJ Simpson: “Thank You Uncle O”

April 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Cam’ron and Mase have rebranded themselves as podcasters. The titans of New York rap have found tremendous success with their sports talk show It Is What It Is, and part of their success stemmed from their ability to book huge guests. The first guest they ever booked? O.J. Simpson. The controversial NFL star was actually one of the most frequent co-hosts on It Is What It Is, which meant his recent passing at age 76 hit the show hard. Cam and Mase took to Instagram to pay their respects.

The duo posted a montage of It Is What It Is episodes featuring O.J. Simpson, along with a caption that expressed their sadness. “We just want to say thank you to Uncle O for gracing us with your presence,” they wrote. “You were definitely one of a kind, you became Uncle O to use cause it was like having a real uncle around. You were very funny and down to Earth.” Cam and Mase then detailed the circumstances in which they first linked up with Simpson. Unbeknownst to longtime listeners, the “Juice” was one of the first co-hosts that were ever considered for the show.

“When we signed our deal the first co-host we thought about having was Uncle O,” they revealed. “We said oh we gone break the internet with #OJ and that we did. You helped make our show 10x better and everyone loved you.” Cam’ron and Mase concluded their heartfelt message by giving thanks to Simpson for his insight and his willingness to poke fun at himself. “We will cherish these last memories we were able to share with you,” the duo added. “You will forever be apart of the It Is What It Is family.”

Unsurprisingly, the episode of It Is What It Is that aired April 12 (two days after Simpson’s passing) was dedicated to him. Cam’ron, Mase, Treasure “Stat Baby” Wilson and special guest Maurice Clarett spoke at length about the NFL star’s impact on the show. They also praised his sports acumen and his ability to speak candidly and convincingly on the subject of football.

O.J. Simpson’s family confirmed his death via X (formerly Twitter). They are asking that the public “respect their wishes for privacy and grace” at this time.

Kodak Black Posts IG Video Of James Harden Signing His Jersey

April 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kodak Black loves to make a scene at sporting events. The Florida rapper went viral for grinding on a woman at a Florida Panthers hockey game in 2022. He also popped up in the locker room of the Florida Atlantic football team, which led many fans to clown him for acting like he was a player. Kodak kept the outrageous sports behavior going at a recent Phoenix Suns game, as he cornered James Harden and asked him to sign a jersey. Not in the stadium, mind you, but on top of a car in a parking garage.

Kodak Black posted a video of the exchange on his Instagram Stories. He can be seen standing next to Harden as he signs the jersey. The “Tunnel Vision” rapper also made reference a mutual friend of theirs, Drake, by quoting lyrics from Drizzy’s song “The Shoe Fits.” “What that boy say??” Kodak asks Harden. “He say the n***a lost his h*e to James Harden, the Snip.” Harden laughs in acknowledgment, as “The Shoe Fits” tells a story about a woman who ends up striking up a relationship with the Suns superstar.

Kodak Black Rapped Drake Lyrics to Harden

“My new boo hoopin’ tonight and he said he play at the Garden,” Drake raps. “He said if I ain’t watching, then that n***a ain’t startin. She point to the guy that she talkin’ ’bout and it’s James Harden.” Kodak has expressed frustration with Drake in the past, claiming that he was supposed to make a collab album with the 6 God before he made Her Loss (2022) with 21 Savage. Evidently, Kodak is still enough of a fan that he knows the words from Drake’s latest release. So does Harden.

Kodak may have a reputation for being a troubled celebrity, but he has given back in the realm of sports. He organized a charity basketball game in Broward Country in 2022, eventually raising $5K for Lippman Youth Shelter in Oakland Park. Broward County Commissioner Dale Holness subsequently made June 11 “Kodak Black Day.” Hunter Pollack, who organized the game with Kodak, praised his kindness towards the next generation of athletes. “He cares about the community he grew up in, and the entire community is proud of him,” he noted. “It shows he has a good heart, and he wants to make a difference.”
