With his entire family and former high school and college teammates — including Shabazz Napier, Jeremy Lamb, Chris Fouch, and closest friends — in attendance, Hornets legend Kemba Walker officially opened the Kemba Walker Sports Academy in Concord today.
A lifelong dream for the four-time All-Star and the Hornets’ all-time leading scorer, the academy extends Walker’s legacy by providing top-of-the-line training and facilities for young athletes in the Charlotte area.
The facility features four full-size high school basketball courts, a state-of-the-art strength and conditioning center, and a dedicated team room for film study and performance analysis.
The academy will also host the inaugural Kemba Walker Basketball Invitational this weekend, June 27–28.
BREAKING: The Charlotte Hornets are trading star guard LaMelo Ball and Josh Green to the Minnesota Timberwolves for Naz Reid, a 2033 unprotected first-round pick, three first-round pick swaps (2028, 2029, 2030) and three second-round picks (2029, 2032, 2033), sources tell ESPN.
Gilbert Arenas says the Wizards are going to go on a deep playoff run:
“We got three number one picks. Like I know what people say, well there was one that was number two. Really? Are we counting the Hawks as number one pick? It was really the Sarr was really number one pick. So we got him. We got Anthony Davis. We already know what who he is when he’s healthy. And we got Trae Young. Who’s gonna let the world know they made a mistake. So we got those three. Then you add AJ who covers up all positions after that. He can guard one, two, three, four, right? Come on. He can guard one through four.”

At the G7, the CEOs of the big AI companies sat at the table like heads of state, alongside presidents and prime ministers.
This is the nightmare scene.
Governments need to have a response to the state-like power of these companies, whether it’s by taking ownership shares, breaking them up into smaller entities, or imposing a regulatory structure that controls their power over citizens.
I’ll NEVER understand how so many of y’all were hoodwinked into the belief that the government should NOT use the money you pay in taxes to create a social safety net that benefits you, fund public healthcare, lower housing costs, and make daily life more affordable.
