I don't care what anyone says about Jalen Williams, he's fought through everything

Torn wrist ligament all of the 24/25 playoffs and still dropped 40 in the Finals, won us a championship

Multiple hamstring injuries in 25/26 and missed approximately all the last season, came back in the summer to be healthy

Now he's out for the season in 26/27 after working in ass off to be healthy, he's a warrior no matter what.

GET WELL SOON J DUB ♥️

[𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒆 🌩 @Three_Cone]

I'm so devastated

J Dub has been through so much health wise, he hardly got to play at all last season and if that's what it looked like that might be his entire season gone

He played through a torn wrist ligament to get this team a championship, he deserves just one healthy season

Fuck man

Pablo Torre really exposed a MAJOR issue in our overall society. Billionaires commit crimes and regular everyday folks really simp and protect them for no reason. What do you gain from defending Balmer and Kawhi? Lol

just so we're clear, going at the anti-trans-women-in-sports folks with arguments like "there are no trans women in the wnba anyway so what does it matter" or worse, "there are plenty of trans women in sports who don't succeed at all" is not a productive means of doing so.

if a trans woman played in the wnba, the argument does not change. if a trans woman was the best player in the world, the argument does not change.

scientifically, a medically transitioned trans woman has no inherent physical advantages that are not also available to a cis woman. all elite athletes have physical advantages compared to the average person. trans and cis women are no different in this regard. thus, a trans woman's success in sport would not differ from a cis woman's, and would not "prove" this crowd right (but the fact that they'll act like it does, is exactly why you should not be using this argument to begin with).

trans women belong in women's sports and deserve the opportunity to succeed at the highest level. there is no debate.

love to all my trans sisters. keep your head up and keep going. 🏳️‍⚧️🫶

Pretty simple. The right is constantly inventing totally crazy scenarios of gotcha moments that won’t happen to create a sense of hysteria.

Here are the facts:
— A trans woman has never played in the WNBA. In 30 years.

— Trans women are barred from competing in women’s sports in the NCAA and the Olympics.

— 29 states have banned trans girls participation in women’s sports K-12.

— The Supreme Court ruled states can exclude trans girls from participating in women’s sports.

Y’all won. Y’all got it. So why is the right still crying and whining about an argument that is backed by law and policy at virtually every level?

Wait, I have an answer. They want to erase trans existence period and no amount of exclusion, degradation, or denigration will ever be good enough for them.

SO they create these dumb, illogical, stupid-ass scenarios because there actually isn’t enough there for them to make a salient point. It’s fear-mongering bullshit that is designed to create a hostile environment for trans people. It’s weak.

trans people just want to *exist*, man.

@ThunderChats happy birthday!

Lu Dort was the longest tenured Thunder player and genuinely one of my favorite players of all time

He was a catalyst that turned the Thunder around in 2019-2020 as an undrafted rookie who became a starter and gave Harden hell round one before one of the greatest game 7 peer romances ever

He grew into one of the best defenders in the sport and a knockdown shooter who saved the championship run in that series vs the Nuggets

His moonball three from halfcourt in game 7 is the moment where it felt like the championship was won

From undrafted to a champion with the Thunder, I hope the #5 isn’t worn for the Thunder again

Thank you @luthebeast for everything, we’re not champions without you

[Thunder Film Room @ThunderFilmRoom]

These 3 Lu Dort 3’s in a row in the 4th quarter of game 5 of the 2025 WCSF will go down as one of, if not the most important on-court sequence in Thunder history so far.

[ThunderChats @ThunderChats]

I’ll never forget you goat, despite your shortcomings, you were and always will be an absolute dog who was proud to wear Oklahoma City across his chest

We don’t win a ring without your performance in game 5 against the Nuggets in the WCF, you’ll be missed sorely

Go be great in Atlanta with Wiggs 🥹🫡

LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
