LeBron James and Tyrese Maxey. Teammates together on the Philadelphia 76ers. No, you are not dreaming. Yes, it's real. No need to pinch yourself.The Sixers were able to land James on a 2-year $8 million deal to join Maxey, Joel Embiid, Jaylen Brown, and Co. in an effort to get Philadelphia over the hump in the East. This is a franchise that has not been past Round 2 since 2001 and hasn't won a title since 1983. Now, Philadelphia will be expected to go deep into the playoffs and reach that mountaintop when considering the additions it made in the offseason.In preparation for the coming season, James and Maxey were back in the gym and working out together with trainer, Chris Johnson.View this post on Instagram

As Shedeur Sanders opens his second training camp with the Cleveland Browns, the former Colorado star quarterback has a legitimate shot to win the Browns' starting job.ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky chimed in on the Browns' quarterback situation Monday morning, stating that he believes Cleveland would be making a huge mistake if Sanders does not start from Week 1."Starting anybody, but Shedeur Sanders is dumb," Orlovsky said. "Figure out what you have in Shedeur Sanders. Playing Deshaun [Watson] does nothing for your future."Orlovsky's stance is one held by all Colorado fans and a seemingly growing majority of Browns' fans and media. The big question is if the Browns brass, led by head coach Todd Monken and possibly owner Jimmy Haslam, view the situation the same way. Shedeur Over Deshaun. Dan Now All-In for S2 "Starting anybody but Shedeur is dumb. He should be the starting QB. Playing Deshaun does nothing for your future..." https://t.co/DiKfgYZoVgpic.twitter.com/OvwITk7oOA JaKi (@JaKiTruth) July 27, 2026Watson owns a nearly $41 million cap hit, making his status on the roster largely tied to the money due to him. Reports have differed throughout the offseason on whether Sanders or Watson has the edge, and despite Monken wanting to have a starter named before training camp, a month-plus-long battle is set to ensue.Sanders is coming off a rookie season in which he threw for 1,400 yards, seven touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. The numbers were far from spectacular, but he was dealing with a suspect offensive line and middling offensive skill players. Those factors, plus Monken's offense, should all aid Sanders if and when he starts for the Browns in 2026.Follow Charlie StrellaonX,ThreadsandInstagram.Contact/Follow us@BuffaloesWireon X (formerly Twitter) and like our page onFacebookfor ongoing coverage ofColoradonews, notes and opinions.This article originally appeared on Buffaloes Wire: ESPN analyst backs Shedeur Sanders as Cleveland Browns' starting QB

It looks like future Hall of Fame NFL quarterback Tom Brady may be joining the WWE after all. The speculation began when Brady slapped Logan Paul at a recent event, which led many to believe that the slap was leading up to an upcoming match between the two.Although nothing is official, Brady has said in a recent interview with WWE wrestler Cody Rhodes on his "What Do You Want to Talk About? podcast, where he said he'd love to be a part of the WWE.He's just waiting for an invite from WWE president Nick Khan."I need to get an invite,"Brady said. "Ive been waiting for Nick Khan to come up with a storyline for me to get in the mix. I feel like I'm retired from football, have an opportunity to get out there and still showcase that I'm a little of an athlete.""Come on Nick," Brady said. "Come on, make it happen." Within 24 hours of Brady saying that, he slapped Paul in public and they have "feuding" ever since.Brady says if he were to join the WWE, he'd naturally want to play a villain because he's used to playing that role."It's such an easy choice; I'm a bad guy, " he said. "I've always been a bad guy. I feel like when our teams did really well, I would always go into these stadiums, and I would feel that obviously at home it was great. But when you go on the road, and you've had some success in the NFL, they like you. It's an incredible feeling when you work that entire day to basically try to send the crowd home early."Brady may be ready to play that part soon.This article originally appeared on Touchdown Wire: Tom Brady hints at joining the WWE

The Minnesota Lynx had a strong showing at the 2026 WNBA All-Star weekend in Chicago.Three current Lynx Olivia Miles, Courtney Williams and Natasha Howard played in Saturdays game. Former Minnesota players Natisha Hiedeman, Bridget Carlton and Jessica Shepard also made their presence felt. In a tight game, Team Spoon defeated Team Coop 129-122.Three Current Lynx Shined in the All-Star GameThe Lynx selected Miles No. 2 overall in the 2026 Draft. She was a third-round pick to Team Spoon during the July 15 All-Star draft. This season, Miles is averaging 19.3 points, 5.9 assists and 4.7 rebounds per game. She is likely on her way to an All-WNBA team and the Rookie of the Year award.Miles joined Allisha Gray, Rhyne Howard, Caitlin Clark and teammate Courtney Williams as Team Spoons guards. She played 24 minutes, the most of any player on the team.Miles was not only one of the best players for Team Spoon, but one of the best in the entire game. As a starter, she scored 11 points on perfect shooting from the field, and finished two assists shy of a triple-double. She would have continued the streak of All-Star Game triple-doubles, as Skylar Diggins recorded that stat line in last years game.Minnesota Miles popped off in Chicago Olivia Miles logged 11 PTS, 12 REB & 8 AST to become the third rookie in WNBA History to record a double-double in an All-Star game! She joined Angel Reese (2024) and Kiki Iriafen (2025).#WNBAAllStar2026 | @ATTpic.twitter.com/crmIoTgyUm WNBA (@WNBA) July 27, 2026Miles has earned her spot in the limelight this season. Williams, meanwhile, has been as good as ever in her third year with the team. Playing alongside Miles has allowed Williams to return to her natural shooting guard role. In 28 games, she is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 APG and 5.4 RPG.Her time in Minnesota has potentially been the most successful of her career. She and Napheesa Collier have become a formidable duo, operating the midrange especially well.Courtney Williams is the mid-range magician #WNBAAllStar2026 | @ATTpic.twitter.com/M8SbHw6igS WNBA (@WNBA) July 26, 2026In the game, Williams played 17 minutes and scored 12 points with seven assists, earning an A- performance grade according to ESPN.Natasha Howard was the third Lynx selected. She is having arguably her most productive season since winning Defensive Player of the Year in 2019. This is Howards second stint with Minnesota, as she played for the Lynx in 2016 and 2017 before leaving for an elevated role with the Storm.Howard played 23 minutes, scoring eight points with four rebounds. Of the three Lynx, Howard struggled the most, shooting 3-of-10 from the field and 2-of-7 from three. Howards weak performance is not cause for concern, but the return of Collier after missing the first 27 games of the season due to ankle surgery is sure to impact her season stats as the back-half approaches.Former Lynx Made Their Presence Felt All WeekendThere are also some former Lynx who either played in Saturdays game or partook in the weekends other events, including Natisha Hiedeman, Jessica Shepard, and Bridget Carlton.All players left the Lynx last season either by way of free agency or expansion draft, and have gone on to excel in their new roles.Hiedeman, who participated in the State Farm three-point contest, has started all 29 games for Seattle this season, and has been a top player on a disappointing team. She is averaging 15.6 PPG and 4.6 APG on 45% from the field and 34% from three. Hiedemans performance in the contest left something to be desired, as she recorded 17 points and was eliminated in the first round.THE STUDBUDZ HAVE ARRIVED Courtney Williams and Natisha Hiedeman pulled up styling to the Orange Carpet pic.twitter.com/zbuR2SrY6Q Yahoo Sports (@YahooSports) July 24, 2026However, former Lynx Carlton performed much better in the contest, making it to the final round with the Wings Azzi Fudd. While she ended up losing the contest to the rookie, her strong performance is another feather in the cap of her breakout season.Portland selected Carlton No. 1 in the expansion draft. She has since doubled her PPG total from her final season in Minnesota. In 26 games started, Carlton is averaging 13.7 PPG and 3.8 RPG on 40% from the field and 37% from three.The only other former Lynx to play in the All-Star Game, Shepard scored a quiet seven points, and tacked on five rebounds and assists in her 18 minutes of play.Dallas signed Shepard in free agency this past season. She has broken out into a star, averaging 14.9 PPG nearly seven more than her final year in Minnesota. She, alongside Team Coop captain Paige Bueckers, are the main catalysts behind the Wings quick turnaround.The ONLY player this season to have MULTIPLE TRIPLE DOUBLES: Jessica Shepard @albertapp | #WingsUppic.twitter.com/LEync1uD52 Dallas Wings (@DallasWings) July 23, 2026Minnesotas Player Development Was on Full DisplayMinnesotas player development was the weekends defining theme. Current and former Lynx alike showcased the franchises ability to develop talent.With Miles as the focal point, and former Lynx Shepard and Carlton turning into all-stars, Minnesota had a firm grasp on this entire weekend. With Collier and Williams still in their prime as well, that likely wont change in the future.The post The Lynxs Influence Was All Over the WNBA All-Star Weekend appeared first on The Lead.
