data-mm-id=”_7w896knhu”>Anthony Davis has been phenomenal to open the 2019-20 season and his arrival has vaulted the Los Angeles Lakers to the top of the Western Conference. But it's not all sunshine and roses. Davis is dealing with a shoulder injury and if it gets worse, it could derail the Lakers' season.Davis' right shoulder has been bothering him for weeks and he tweaked it again on Sunday night against the Toronto Raptors. He has claimed there isn't a single play where he doesn't notice the shoulder pain and that's he's just playing through it. That's not good. It's clearly something that's not getting better. Through nine games this season, Davis has been flat out phenomenal. He's sixth in the NBA in scoring (26.6 points per …

data-mm-id=”_3zx4phofc”>Taysom Hill had a breakout season for the Saints, acting as their gimmicky Swiss army knife with blades that work at wide receiver, running back, quarterback and special teams. Apparently after that success, Hill now thinks he's morphed into a deadly machete capable of singlehandedly slicing and dicing up defenses from a singular position under center. Unfortunately for him and his bank account, he's wrong. After a season in which he completed all of three passes for the Saints, Hill, a restricted free agent, came out and said he views himself as a franchise quarterback and is willing to leave the Saints for the right opportunity. For a guy who will turn 30 before the season starts, and has thrown a total of zero touchdowns and one interception in his …

data-mm-id=”_pc0nou8o6″>The Philadelphia Eagles' selection of Jalen Hurts in the second round raised eyebrows. It also revealed how the franchise feels about Carson Wentz, who has had trouble staying on the field when it matters most. Fair or otherwise, that's the reality. They'll now go into a win-now season with Hurts as a backup plan. The fellas at Speak For Yourself discussed the addition yesterday and Marcellus Wiley made the salient point that it's not Wentz's ability that's in question, it's his reliability. And while it sucks that an objectively dirty hit from Jadeveon Clowney is being held against quarterback, it would be irresponsible of the Eagles to ignore the trend.The Eagles have lost confidence in Carson Wentz."The Philadelphia Eag…

data-mm-id=”_g6g1qrep7″>Nobody knows what goes on in the mind of Aaron Rodgers, but it would be easy to understand if he still wasn't over the Green Bay Packers selecting Jordan Love in the 2020 NFL Draft. The Packers are still a very good team with Rodgers at the helm, and picking up a quarterback in the first round (and one who needs years of development at that) does not serve the goal of winning a Super Bowl while Rodgers is still in a Packers uniform. The Get Up crew discussed this very matter on Wednesday morning, and Adam Schefter declared the selection was a big ol' slap in the face to Green Bay's franchise quarterback. Not a regular slap in the face, mind you, but the rare triple slap. He has a point. Not only did the Packers not draft a player who could help th…

data-mm-id=”_4qfuhpjuq”>After photos emerged of Dwayne Haskins partying in a strip club without a mask on earlier this week, Washington considered releasing him, according to Peter Schrager. Now, just six days later, Haskins is starting at quarterback as Washington continues to fight for its playoff life. Funny how quickly things change isn't it? The Washington Football team reportedly considered releasing Haskins after his partying pictures surfaced. @PSchrags with the latest on that and more: pic.twitter.com/oJOXu3uvmN— FOX Sports: NFL (@NFLonFOX) December 27, 2020Washington starting quarterback Alex Smith is still battling a calf injury, which will keep him out of his second straight game. Haskins started against the Seahawks last week and passed for 295 yards with 1 touchdow…

data-mm-id=”_134zacjr3″>Kendrick Perkins appeared on SportsCenter on Tuesday night to talk about the NBA. While discussing the Golden State Warriors, Perkins casually mentioned that "from reports I'm hearing that Jonathan Kuminga is now seven-two." This is, of course, not true.Kendrick Perkins fell for the viral Twitter joke that 6'7" Jonathan Kuminga has sprouted to 7'2". 💀 pic.twitter.com/frW5W9gLTx— Awful Announcing (@awfulannouncing) June 21, 2023Kuminga, still listed at 6-foot-7, averaged 9.9 points and 3.4 rebounds in 20-minutes per game last season. At just 20-years old, it's possible he might grow some more, but another seven inches since we last saw him in the playoffs five weeks ago? Where did that come from? Twitter, of…
