Celtics' Jayson Tatum joins Kendrick Lamar, Luka Doncic, others for new Gatorade campaign
Fans of Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics are no stranger to the St. Louis native's endorsement of the popular sports hydration beverage Gatorade. But they might be surprised to see that the Celtics star has teamed up 22-time Grammy-winning artist Kendrick Lamar, WNBA stars A'ja Wilson and Caitlin Clark, Los Angeles Lakers nemesis Luka Doncic, and rising football star Shedeur Sanders for a new Gatorade campaign.
"Last year's NBA Championship was one of the best moments of my career so far, especially knowing how much sweat and sacrifice was behind it," said Tatum of the campaign. "Winning doesn't come without discipline, so it's cool to spread that message with Gatorade."

Padres closer Suarez suspended 3 games, fined for hitting Ohtani with pitch; managers banned 1 game
A tough couple months prompted a demotion for Red Sox prospect Kristian Campbell, but James Schiano remains confident he'll find his way in Boston -- and for fantasy managers. LOS ANGELES — San Diego Padres closer Robert Suarez was suspended for three games and fined an undisclosed amount Friday for intentionally hitting Shohei Ohtani of the Los Angeles Dodgers with a pitch during the NL West rivals' contentious meeting Thursday night. Suarez will appeal the suspension, keeping him eligible to play for San Diego on Friday night against Kansas City. Padres manager Mike Shildt and Dodgers manager Dave Roberts also received one-game suspensions and undisclosed fines for their roles in the brouhaha that occurred in both halves of the ninth inning during the Padres' 5-3 victory at Dodger Stadium. 'I support it,' Roberts said about the league's disciplinary decision. 'I think that obviously I never want to make the game about the managers. It shouldn't be. It should be about the players and winning, so last night, both managers are protecting their teams, and it just unfortunately got to the point that we became the focus, and that's not the way it should be.' Both managers were ejected in the top of the ninth after they ran onto the field and bumped into each other during a vociferous argument that almost got even more physical before their players and assistant coaches intervened. Shildt believed Dodgers reliever Jack Little intentionally hit Fernando Tatís Jr. in the right hand with a pitch, igniting the latest bench-clearing incident between local rivals with several years of bad-tempered history. 'Circumstances were really challenging this past series, and at the end of the day I don't regret standing up for a guy that I love in Tati, and a team that I love and a city that I love,' Shildt said. 'In that regard, I have no regrets how it got to that point. Again, we can all have our comments and thoughts and theories. But as far as my actions, it's not something you want to do every night or needs to be done, hopefully ever again. But appropriate actions for the circumstances were taken, and I don't regret it at all.' Shildt and Roberts will serve their suspensions Friday. Bench coach Danny Lehmann will manage the Dodgers against the Washington Nationals, and Padres bench coach Brian Esposito will run San Diego's dugout. In the bottom of the ninth, Ohtani was hit on the back of his right shoulder by Suarez's pitch, putting the tying run on base during the Dodgers' three-run rally. Ohtani's teammates appeared to be preparing to storm the field for the second time before Ohtani waved them back. The three-time MVP then walked to the Padres' dugout for some light banter, defusing the tension. Suarez on Friday insisted he hadn't retaliated for Tatís. 'I was never trying to get anyone into trouble or hit anybody,' Suarez said through an interpreter. 'Unfortunately it happened. I got ejected and I couldn't finish out the game, but we won as a team and we were able to salvage that game. … (The Dodgers are) entitled to their opinion. They can say whatever they want. That was not the case. I was out there to try to save the game.' Ohtani threw a bullpen session as scheduled Friday despite getting hit by Suarez on his pitching shoulder. Ohtani's second mound start for the Dodgers is still expected to happen Sunday, Roberts said. Tatís was in the Padres' lineup as usual Friday. Manny Machado said afterward that the Dodgers should 'pray' Tatís had escaped serious injury, encouraging them to 'put out a candle.'

Is Celtics' Joe Mazzulla on the hot seat next season?
Joe Mazzulla has just completed his third season as the Boston Celtics' head coach. Unfortunately, the team's season didn't end the way we all hoped, as the New York Knicks eliminated the Celtics in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Furthermore, Mazzulla's coaching skill is set to be put to the test next season. Without Jayson Tatum, Mazzulla must develop some of the younger talent on the roster while also implementing a different offensive system. Throughout his tenure with the Celtics, Mazzulla has been the subject of consistent scrutiny, primarily due to Boston's 3-point-heavy offensive approach. However, that same system has seen the third-year head coach secure a 74% regular season win ratio, winning 182 of the 246 games he's led the team. Mazzulla's Celtics are also 33-17 in the postseason. Advertisement Cedric Maxwell and John Zannis recently debated Mazzulla's credentials as a head coach on a recent episode of the eponymous CLNS Media "Cedric Maxwell" podcast. The duo then asked the ever-important question of whether Mazzulla could survive a bad season for the Celtics in the 2025-26 campaign, especially with the team needing to bounce back the following year.
