In his post-draft availability, newest Hornet Christian Anderson said that Kon Knueppel should have won Rookie of the Year this past season. He also expanded on his thoughts on Kon:

Should be fun to see Christian Anderson and Hannes Steinbach develop together for the Hornets. The two played together on the 2025 FIBA U19 World Cup team for Germany, which lost to the U.S. in the gold medal game. The American team had the likes of AJ Dybansta and Morez Johnson.

Does this mean we have to call it getting Curaçao’d now instead of getting Brazil’d?

Hornets' @Grant2Will came for a #StanleyCup Final game, and left with wet feet and a Canes win! 👟

Game 6 between the @Canes and @GoldenKnights is Sunday at 8p ET on ABC, @Sportsnet, & @TVASports!

Hard to believe I’ve been with the Hornets for five years (six seasons), but now I have the hardware to prove it.

Already looking forward to season seven!

Is there a worse bullpen in baseball than the Pirates right now? I mean it’s just embarrassing at this point.

[BIG BOB @FSBigBob]

Paul Skenes is an awesome human in case anyone was wondering.

He was driving by the Ingomar Franklin Park Little League baseball fields last night and saw the lights on and just pulled on in.

He was there over 2 hours signing, taking pictures and playing catch with the kids.

"If we lose this game, I'll walk back to Pittsburgh."

On this date in 1989, Pirates broadcaster Jim Rooker made that promise after Pittsburgh scored 10 runs in the 1st inning.

The Pirates lost 15-11.

And Rooker actually walked the 300+ miles back to Pittsburgh.

Welp, guess I can say I called that one.

I already know it had to be a Philly writer that gave Edgecombe a second-place vote over Kon.
