Julia Bonilla, the ex-girlfriend of Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert, appeared to slam him in a series of posts on social media over the weekend.

Bonilla posted a meme that read, “When you know you can destroy their image and narrative by telling your side of the story, but then you remember rotten fruit always falls on its own.

“You have every right to speak your truth – to share what happened and how it affected you. Their discomfort isn’t your responsibility. If they wanted to be seen in a better light, they should’ve treated you better.”

She followed this post up with a series of photos of her and Gobert’s son, Romeo, and a message which said she would always protect the child, and they would soon be “home, at peace and filled with love.”

Bonilla also posted an image of several large pieces of luggage and storage containers,...

With those explosive battles, compelling stories, and memorable characters, anime and manga have managed to carve out a huge fan base across the globe. And now it looks like the anime craze has also reached the NBA realm, as around 80% of the players are geeking out over it, according to some recent revelations.

Honestly, it’s not even surprising considering how Naruto’s over-the-top battles and Dragon Ball Z’s insane power-ups have always managed to amaze us. “The writing in anime is like next level,” said one prominent figure in the league, and it’s pretty easy to see why. So here’s the rundown of the five greatest NBA anime super fans who geek out over their favorite characters and shows.

The basketball world was rocked Saturday night when the Dallas Mavericks — fresh off an NBA Finals appearance last season — traded their 25-year-old Slovenian star Luka Doncic, a franchise cornerstone and one of the best young players in the league, to the Los Angeles Lakers in a three-team deal without warning.

Prior to next week’s NBA trade deadline, stars like Jimmy Butler, De’Aaron Fox, and Zach Lavine were oft-mentioned on the marketplace, but no one — front-office execs, beat writers, and fans — could have fathomed that a player with the magnitude...

At the Paris Olympic Games last summer, the U.S. basketball team secured their fifth consecutive gold medal with help from the Golden State Warriors point guard Steph Curry, who secured a handful of three-pointers in the game’s final minutes.

As the 2024 NBA Playoffs continue, the stage is set for an epic confrontation between two Western Conference powerhouses: the Minnesota Timberwolves (3) and the Denver Nuggets (2).

NBA PlayoffsTimberwolves vs. NuggetsListen on the App

Listen on the App

The Timberwolves swept through the first round over Phoenix and now stand to challenge the reigning champions. For the Nuggets, this matchup presents perhaps their toughest challenge since their championship triumph last spring.

Throughout the regular season, these teams engaged in a relentless tug-of-war for the top seed. Although both ultimately fell short to Okc’s record, their mere one-game difference in the standings suggests a razor-thin margin that could define the upcoming series.

The focal point of this clash lies in the contrasting styles of play: the Nuggets’ offensive prowess versus the Timberwolves’ formidable defensive. Led by defensive stalwarts like Rudy Gobert and Mike Conley, Minnesota boasts a lineup capable of stifling even the most potent offenses.

The subject of endless sports talk over the past few weeks, Golden State Warriors locker room leader Draymond Green spoke out today about his recent 12-game suspension for taking a swing at Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic during a game on Dec. 13.

Green has been suspended four times since March. His most recent involuntary time away came just six games after he served a five-game suspension without pay for “escalating an on-court altercation” putting Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert in a headlock. Needless to say, the sports talk machine has been in overdrive parsing the incidents and the details of the four-time NBA champion’s most recent transgression.

The Warriors are a cornerstone franchise in the current NBA with four recent titles, a groundbreaking style of play and, oh, the greatest shooter in the history of the game (Stephen Curry). Green’s stats may not be gaudy, but he is...

It’s a great season to be a Minnesota Timberwolves fan, with the team currently leading the NBA‘s Western Conference. Stars Karl-Anthony Towns and Anthony Edwards have undeniable chemistry; veteran Mike Conley shows real leadership on the court; center Rudy Gobert is gunning for his fourth Defensive Player of the Year award. This is the kind of basketball you can get excited about.

But the Timberwolves have an additional, not-so-secret weapon you won’t see at the Target Center in Minneapolis. In fact, he’s never even been there.

There is a snippet of “The Illiad, or The Poem of Force,” Simone Weil’s 1940 essay about the blind poet Homer’s Trojan War epic, that has always stuck with me: “The progress of the war in the Iliad is simply a continual game of seesaw. The victor of the moment feels himself invincible, even though, only a few hours before, he may have experienced defeat; he forgets to treat victory as a transitory thing.”

The Golden State Warriors seemed invincible once. Now, far from it. Nobody saw this coming five years ago,...

The NBA has suspended Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green indefinitely after he struck Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkić in the head during Tuesday’s game.

Green was ejected from the game, marking his third ejection of the season. Joe Dumars, NBA executive vice president and head of basketball operations, announced the news in a statement released Wednesday. “This outcome takes into account Green’s repeated history of unsportsmanlike acts,” the statement read, adding that his suspension begins immediately, and the forward “will be required to meet certain league and...

President Joe Biden faced tough competition for media attention when giant panda Tian Tian joined his press conference during Saturday Night Live’s cold open for this weekend’s Jason Momoa-hosted episode.

SNL kicked off its latest installment with a sketch poking fun at Biden’s recent meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping that included discussion of China’s plan to send more pandas to the U.S. as three are currently making their way back to the Asian nation after having resided in Washington’s National Zoo. Castmember Bowen Yang played one of those pandas, Tian Tian, and he successfully upstaged Mikey Day’s Biden.

“This meeting was a total win,” Day said as Biden. “Sure, we made agreements about communications, fentanyl, climate change — but most importantly, we got the thing America really needs right now: more pandas.”

Yang gave insight into Tian Tian’s daily routine: “I just want to eat bamboo,...

Love Virtually is an ensemble comedy that explores a society obsessed with social media and virtual reality, drawing parallels to our post-covid world. The film suffers from budget restraints and underwhelming actors, aside from Cheri Oteri and Stephen Tobolowsky. Love Virtually drags on due to its attempt to incorporate numerous real-world metaphors and references, and viewers may feel fatigued by it.

If you're too scared to ask out your crush, why not enter the Metaverse and try to meet them that way? Love Virtually, a new ensemble comedy from co-writer/producer/director/co-star L.E. Staiman, explores said notion and dares us to accept a society obsessed with the Metaverse and other virtual reality-type norms that the real world has grown accustomed to as of late, especially in these post-covid lockdown times. Sound familiar?

Pandemic lockdown — remember when? Covid-19 kept us indoors for a then-unforeseen length of time, leaving us questioning the future and perhaps our livelihood. The virus is sadly still around, but at least we've been out seeing the world for quite some time at this point. Most of us hadn't used Zoom before the coronavirus, but many of us turned to the app and VR-type technology back in 2020 and 2021 to help pass the time and help us feel somewhat like the social butterflies we once were.

This sort of digital Metaverse is explored in satirical fashion with Love Virtually, a new ensemble comedy feature from director L.E. Staiman that stars Cheri Oteri (Scary Movie), Stephen Tobolowsky (Silicon Valley), Tom Virtue (Even Stevens), and more. We recently caught up with Staiman to learn more about the unique new project that he also co-wrote, co-produced, and co-starred in.

But after real-world issues collided with sports on an unprecedented scale last week, ESPN is left sifting through the rubble of a schedule now littered with holes. “Thursday, March 12, 2020 is a day none of us will soon forget,” Burke Magnus, executive vice president, programming acquisitions and scheduling, said in an interview conducted by ESPN’s Front Row. The NBA made the decision to suspend its season on March 11 after Utah Jazz player Rudy Gobert tested positive for Covid-19, which put every other sporting event on the clock.

Variety caught up with Morris on the eve of “Bloodshot’s” release to discuss how he’s dealing with the pandemic, his NBA obsession and what Diesel told him on the hilltops of South Africa.
