Happy birthday to Seahawks WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba!
A celebratory post is in order for rising Seattle Seahawks star Jaxon Smith-Njigba! The former Buckeye-turned Seahawks Pro Bowler turned 23 years old today, officially entering into his Jordan year.
The Seahawks wide receiver, in his second season in the league, had a career year. JSN built upon his rookie campaign and emerged as a legitimate star in this league in 2024. JSN hauled in 100 receptions (tying Tyler Lockett for most in a single season in Seattle history) for 1,130 yards and six touchdowns.
All were personal best numbers.
I know I speak for all the 12's when I say I for one cannot wait to see what JSN has in store for year three, especially under new offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak.

NBA Finals: Isaiah Hartenstein's son hilariously sleeps through trophy celebration after Thunder's win
Elijah Hartenstein missed a major milestone in his dad's professional career on Sunday night, though it's hard to blame him. After all, he's only about a year old. Elijah was spotted completely passed out with his dad, Oklahoma City center Isaiah Harteinstein, as the Thunder accepted their trophy after winning the NBA Finals on Sunday night. Pretty quickly, Elijah stole the show during the ceremony. 'I don't know why he's asleep right now, but I guess it's not loud enough,' Hartenstein joked before waving at the crowd. Advertisement Throughout it all, Elijah didn't flinch — and that drew plenty of attention. Hartenstein had seven points and nine rebounds in the Thunder's 103-91 win over the Indiana Pacers in Game 7 on Sunday night, which gave them the franchise's first NBA title since it relocated from Seattle to Oklahoma City. Hartenstein averaged 5.6 points and 6.7 rebounds throughout the NBA Finals. The 27-year-old just finished his first year of a three-year, $87 million deal with the Thunder. While Elijah wasn't actually awake for the trophy portion of the ceremony on Sunday night, he was seen with his eyes open for a little bit of it. And, above all else, at least he was there. That's a moment his dad is sure to remember for the rest of his life, even if Elijah can't.

In light of other players around the WNBA speaking out, Ogwumike addressed the matter of player salaries following the Storm's 89-79 win over the New York Liberty on Sunday .
