NBA Legend Makes Strong Caitlin Clark Statement During Fever Season

NBA Legend Makes Strong Caitlin Clark Statement During Fever Season originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Kevin Garnett knows what it takes to compete every night. The NBA legend played from 1995 to 2016 with the Timberwolves, Celtics and Nets. Before his pro career, Garnett was a dominant force at Admiral Farragut Academy in Chicago. Advertisement Known as one of the league's toughest players, Garnett constantly dealt with opponents who tried to challenge him, both physically and verbally. Now, 'The Big Ticket' has weighed in on WNBA star Caitlin Clark, who's in her second season with the Indiana Fever. Speaking on KG Certified, Garnett shared his thoughts: "It's a privilege to be a in a position where others are hating on you. When others are hating on you it means you're doing something right." Garnett finished his career with 26,071 points and 14,662 rebounds. He won an NBA title in 2008, earned league MVP honors in 2004 and made 15 all-star appearances. He was the 2008 Defensive Player of the Year and led the league in rebounding four times.

She's faced intense physical play as teams try to disrupt her rhythm, but she continues to rise.

She's coming off one of her tougher outings, shooting just 21.4% from the field with six turnovers in a loss to the Golden State Valkyries. The Fever remain on the road, heading to Las Vegas and Seattle before returning home. Despite some growing pains, Clark is proving she belongs among the league's best.

Warriors React to Draymond Green's Behavior in New Video

Warriors React to Draymond Green's Behavior in New Video originally appeared on Athlon Sports. As fans across the Bay Area settled in for the start of the NBA offseason, the Golden State Warriors dropped a video clip on Saturday that highlighted just how far Draymond Green has come since entering the league. Advertisement In the short video, Green reads aloud a pre-draft scouting report from his college days at Michigan State. Evaluators labeled him a "tweener, undersized for a physical four, yet lacks the athleticism of a wing," and concluded he offered "minimal upside" and was "vulnerable defending quicker guards on the perimeter." By the end of the video, Green couldn't contain himself, simply laughing off the doubters. As a senior at Michigan State, Green earned Big Ten Player of the Year honors, was named a consensus first-team All-American and led the Spartans to the NCAA Sweet 16 in 2012. That season, he also won Big Ten Male Athlete of the Year and NABC National Player of the Year. Advertisement Yet despite all of his collegiate accolades, Green slipped to the second round of the 2012 NBA draft, going 35th overall to Golden State. What followed was a transformation that few franchises enjoy. Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (23).© Cary Edmondson-Imagn Images Green quickly cemented himself as the defensive leader of Steve Kerr's Warriors, whose identity shifted in 2014-15 toward a small-ball, high-pace attack. Green's versatility, capable of guarding all five positions, and his playmaking as a "point forward" became hallmarks of Golden State's so-called "Death Lineup." Between 2015 and 2022, Green helped the Warriors capture four NBA championships and set a league record with 73 regular season wins in 2016. Advertisement Individually, Green is a four-time All-Star, 2017 NBA Defensive Player of the Year, nine-time All-Defensive Team member (five First Team) and led the league in steals in 2017.

Former Kings GM Monte McNair joining Clippers front office

The post Former Kings GM Monte McNair joining Clippers front office appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Los Angeles Clippers are adding to their front office staff before the NBA Draft in about a week, as they've landed an executive who used to be in their division, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. Advertisement 'Former Sacramento Kings general manager Monte McNair, the 2022-23 NBA executive of the Year, is joining the Los Angeles Clippers in an advisor role, sources tell ESPN,' Charania wrote on X, formerly Twitter. McNair and the Kings parted ways after the team failed to make the playoffs and lost to the Dallas Mavericks in the Play-In Tournament. Before that, the Kings were near the top of the Western Conference in 2023, which led McNair to win the Executive of the Year award. The Kings were the No. 3 seed in the conference, but lost to the Golden State Warriors in the first round of the playoffs. Since then, the Kings have missed the playoffs two seasons in a row. McNair was with the team for five seasons, and they were 195-205 in that period. There were high expectations for the Kings this season after acquiring DeMar DeRozan, but Mike Brown was fired and De'Aaron Fox was traded during the year. McNair has shown that he has what it takes to find talent and make big deals, and the Clippers may need that type of expertise in their front office. Advertisement The Clippers had a solid season this year, and they made it all the way to the second round before losing to the Denver Nuggets in the second round of the playoffs. Kawhi Leonard and James Harden proved to be enough for the Clippers to be one of the better teams in the league, and players such as Norman Powell and Ivica Zubac played above their standards this season. Going into the offseason, the key for the Clippers should be continuing to find depth to surround their stars, and McNair can be key in that.
