Hey guys, Sportscasting has decided not to renew my contract. So grateful for my time there and the work we did on the website.

Unfortunately, they were a big part of my income, so I will need to find new opportunities to continue working in the industry full-time. If you or anyone you know is looking for a writer, I have five years of NBA experience for numerous websites and would love to connect!

Isaac Okoro has signed a multi-million dollar deal with HOLO Footwear, sources from @YMAPAAsports tell me.

The deal, negotiated by Daveed Cohen & Adie von Gontard, will give Okoro his own signature show & equity in the company.

For @ForbesSports, basketball is a complicated game but there are a few truisms you can count on. One of which is the maxim that the best teams maximize their limited resources.
