Darius Acuff Jr playing today for Sacramento Kings…we’ll see his best game of the summer. Especially if Mikal Brown gets dressed for Brooklyn. Get some seasoning up in this mutha🔥 Summer league HC Chris Darnell says the objective is to get Acuff more space,fewer pick n rolls Zach Lavine tappin in

France losing 2-0 to Spain. I’m worried about Maxime Renauld of the Kings. The All-Rookie arrived at Thomas & Mack dressed in his French National team jersey. He’ll probably go out and knock somebody’s head off today against Brooklyn..

The NBA Summer League welcome party was cracking last night at Intrigue night club at the Wynn. Caught up with a couple of the Homies, Tim Legler and Cassidy Hubbarth ⭐️

Here watching the Best Player in the WNBA The Face of the WNBA Best Defensive Player in the WNBA A’Ja Wilson💯 The multiple time finals MVP. Save the drama for your mama. A’janis THAT girl. And I don’t debate hoops with folks who can’t draw up “Horns Chest” or “Stagger Away-Double”. Peace ✌🏽

Sacramento went through a spirited practice this morning. NBA All rookie Maxime Raynaud went through the full workout and looked regular season ready Wouldn’t be surprised to see a starting 5 with Cardwell and Raynaud at the “5” and “4” respectively.Couple of Big Body Benz’s screening for Acuff👌🏽

Dennis Schroeder’s “better have my money” slap to the face of Luka is still top of the podium. 🥇 Bam’s punch on Herro gets the silver medal. 🥈 The streets keeping score…Ya dig 💯. I don’t condone violence. But I do condone the occasional straightenin’

Last night in Montreal. WNBA history The most people to ever watch a WNBA game…20,966 ! Paige Bueckers with 34 pts in the win. Shes the real deal. Earned respect. Not artificially manufactured💯

Marquel Sutton may not make it through Summer League with Sacramento. 9 pt,5 reb tonight. Efficient. His play is catching the eyes of a teams that with give him an Exhibit 10 deal,or 2 way deal. Don’t be surprised if he’s sitting in the stands before Summer League ends. Signed & Shut down.

Minnesota and Chicago both expressed strong interest in Precious Achiuwa. Real possibilities. But Sacramento remained the best fit for him. 💯. I spent the day in the gym with Precious last week in Miami. He’s ready to compete for a starting spot this season. He’ll be in Las Vegas with the gang

Just watched FIBA U17 World Cup. USA 108 Serbia 81 It wasn’t that close. USA won Gold. Again. 8th straight time. Despite the alarmists…Youth hoops is in great hands in the USA. They dragged Serbia. 107-81. Read that again. 107-81. Remember the names Clarence Rosser & J Boumtje Boumtje

Daequon Plowden signing a 2 year/5.1 M deal with Sacramento. We done. Well deserved. After a couple 2 way deals. This dude got a PHD after he took night classes from the School Of Hard Knocks.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Just trying to help. He didn’t call me those adjectives. I said Jaylen has those character traits. I’ve spent countless hours around him…

Two months ago Jaylen made it a point to approach me after I called my last game at ESPN. He offered me heartfelt congrats regarding longevity,and authenticity. Brown is one the brightest,intelligent and iconoclastic players the league has ever seen. His legacy is already bigger than basketball💯

Awesome time hanging out with Precious Achiuwa today in the lab. He’s been winning all summer. He just got back from his honeymoon in Croatia. He tells me he’s spoken to his new team mates and ready to go. Will be with the crew in Las Vegas. 👌🏽

Stan Remy is a legendary skills trainer to the NBA stars. His gym. His fortress. His lab…in Miami. What an honor. An NBA Top 10 player was gettin in his work while I was signing. Caught some dap 👊🏽 ♥️ from him. I don’t opine about players. I actually talk to them.I’ll be with your fav player today

I spoke with Maxime yesterday. He’s excited about playing a prominent role on the French national team in their two upcoming games in qualification windows. July 3 against Belgium and July 6 against Finland. By the way.. he’s put on about 20 pounds with minimal body fat in the last 12 mths

Friendly reminder 💯

Listen.. Arkansas Coach Calipari basically told Acuff “I need you to stay out of foul trouble..I need you on the floor to score for us..play it conservative, cautiously on defense” But Acuff can defend. He’s prideful. You see it in special moments. He’ll be better on defense in Sacramento.

Kings get their guy. Darius Acuff Jr is a Sacramento King. He’s from Detroit..no softie. Unfiltered bonafide,qualified,certified Bucket getter for a team that was bottom third offensively. He came through in a pair of Detroit style Cartier Buffs. IYKYK

A.J sponged that shit and immediately joins the Jayson Tatum “Best Hairline in the NBA” Most of the people I spoke to say he’s T-Mac reincarnated.

I haven’t been to a gas station in 2 years.. Love my 350 EQE.. $2 gas ? 😂😂not now. It was never about gas prices💯

Lamine Yamal of Spain..a wizard..only 18 yr old. Crossed his defender..then waited for him to get back to his feet to cook him again. Scored a goal in this game too.

How I’m livin.. Communing with Mother Earth. Look at God. Stay Blessed 🙏🏽🏀

Barack Obama Day. Have an awesome day folks. Celebrating the intelligence,inclusiveness,economic brilliance(record growth),rhythm, cool and aura that will never be duplicated in the White House. And he could,and can still hoop🏀 The Boss..👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I remember asking Knicks asst coach Rick Brunson why his son Jalen handles the NY media spotlight with so much ease and aplomb. Rick told me “when Jalen first signed in NY I sat down with him and made him watch the Netflix doc on Derek Jeter. Watch how Jeter deals the media smoke” Jalen is 🥶 💯

The moment you knew the Spurs were cooked💯

Think about this.. Jalen Brunson..2nd round pick. Brunson turned down down Mavs lowball extension.He knew playing Robin to Luka’s Batman wasn’t it. Brunson leaving Luka in Dallas to run his show in NY. No “Superteam”. No other generational player on NY roster Brunson wins a title before Luka.
