Klay Thompson shares an emotional story about Giannis Antetokounmpo:
“I got a Giannis story for you. The year I came back from two-and-a-half years off injury, we played the Bucks. I had a great game. I had 38.
This is a testament to his humility. (That game) made me feel like I could be a great player again. After the game, he walked from the opposing bench all the way down to our bench just to tell me how happy he was for me.
I don’t want to get emotional, but that meant a lot to me. To be one of the 75 best players ever and not to be bitter in a moment where your team loses, and I have a great game and to just give me those props, that made me look at him in a different light.
Like, man, this guy is genuinely a great human being, and that really meant a lot to me when he gave me props for coming back from what I did. So now, to be his teammate is just awesome.”

Great effort by Jeff Hafley and the Miami Dolphins today. $180M in dead cap, bunch of rookies playing, and they fought the Vikings (in their house) until the end.
Jacob Rodriguez is a STUD. 18 tackles today.
Kadyn Proctor is a monster out there.
Zach Seiler was a menace today with two sacks.
Chop Robinson had his best game of the season.
Defense didn’t allow a touchdown today.
Ollie Gordon II was sensational.
Hoping we get Kenneth Grant back very soon.
🏈 Grabbing the flag when he’s steps away from Mahomes.
THEN throws flag before they hit the ground.
👉 Can’t wait to hear the excuses #ChiefsKingdom comes up for this one.
#Chiefs = FRAUDS

@DanMarino (23-42-473-5-1) returns from his Achilles injury and throws 5 TD’s (64, 26, 54, 50, 35).
Dan becomes the 2nd player to throw 300 career TD passes.
He also sets a new #NFL record for games with 4 TD passes (18).

Malik Willis learned the business of football early. A wide receiver as a junior in high school, a transfer as a senior, he believed Auburn was where he would flourish. At least, that’s what he thought.
After two years behind Jarrett Stidham, @malikwillis was told a freshman named Bo Nix would be the next starter. He entered the transfer portal with few suitors, but a daily Bible verse led him to Liberty—and ultimately, the NFL. Every stop taught him another lesson about the business of football.
