Beautiful moment from Deer Valley vs Peoria.
Peoria painted a special decal at the 33-yard-line to honor Deer Valley junior Baxter Floyd, who passed away earlier this month. Peoria allowed Deer Valley to return the opening kickoff to the 33 before taking a knee.

After a great visit to Michigan Tech, I’m excited to share that I have received an offer to play basketball at the next level! Thank you @mtuwbb for believing in me and for the awesome day on campus!🖤💛 #gohuskies@WiFlightElite@DPGirlsBB@BlueprintPlayer
I remember asking assistant coach Mo Cheeks, what’s harder to do? Workout after practice or before?? I only asked cuz by time I would get to the gym, Russ was already done in the morning and I usually got mine in after practice. Mo like, “coming in before practice is probably harder”…since then, it’s been my routine….a lot of people looked at the emotions on the court and thought Russ was loud, nah to me, he was quiet and methodical. He lead by example and once the lights were bright, he let everything out and experienced pure freedom. It was inspiring as his teammate and everywhere I went, I seen it inspire people from all walks of life, crazy thing is, he didn’t say much, he just showed up. For 18 years. This basketball life is sacred to us as professionals, what we put into that court means everything. Some of us wish we could go back and do things with a little more intent and some can just wipe their hands and be satisfied with the time spent. Who u gonna be? We know what zero was on…keep inspiring in the next phase of life champ. I don’t care what happens, can’t erase what it was…The first YNs, finals run in our early 20s, all star games, seeing each other get injured and bounce back, the bus rides, plane rides, card games, jokes and arguments, the whole thing, memorable!! …to the whole Westbrook family, Nina, the kids, mama Westbrook, big Russ, Ray, Donnell, everybody from luezinger high and ucla and many more that I’m forgettin, much love and Congratulations on a iconic career.
I'm not backing down from this one.
You can support people's rights AND believe biological men shouldn't compete in women's sports. Those two things are not mutually exclusive.
My issue isn't hate. It's protecting women, protecting girls, and asking why a WNBA coach chose to inject herself into a controversy that could hurt the very league she's supposed to represent.
Common sense still matters. That's where I stand.
My full remarks are on YouTube.
This is the same individual who, just hours after the incident, took a bullhorn and declared it a “state-sanctioned execution,” then attacked me last week for calling to end the encampment.
You don’t get to ignite the fire and then complain about the smoke.
