NBA

The Golden State Warriors celebration was marred with violence against cops -- with Oakland PD telling TMZ Sports some of their officers were attacked with rocks and bottles after the game.

A rep for the OPD tells us, "In east Oakland, it was reported 400 to 500 spectators and vehicles participated in sideshow activity on city streets. Officers did report that individuals threw rocks and bottles at them."

"In response, patrol officers implemented strategies where they were able to detain approximately 100 cars. Over 40 citations were issued and over 30 cars were towed."

There's more ... "We did receive sporadic reports throughout the city of celebratory gunfire and fireworks."

At least 1 cop was injured when the officer was rear-ended by a drunk driver.

"The officer was transported to a local hospital and was listed in stable condition. The driver was arrested at the scene."

The fans went absolutely CRAZY in downtown Oakland Monday night ... dancing in the streets and climbing light poles to celebrate the Warriors' huge win over the Cavs!!

Dub Nation flocked the streets shortly after Kevin Durant and Steph Curry finished off the Cavs in Game 5 of the NBA Finals ... and they're clearly excited the Larry O'Brien trophy is back in the Bay Area.

One passionate fan even decided to climb up on a street sign and get his groove on while a group of fans rocked out to "Before I Let Go" by Frankie Beverly and Maze.

Doesn't look like this party is stopping anytime soon.

LeBron James' hoops legacy is like your grandmother's old silver ... TARNISHED ... that's according to The Game who said this latest Finals loss puts MJ and Kobe ahead of LBJ FOREVER.

We got Chuck Taylor out at The Parlor in L.A. right after the final buzzer and asked the hip-hop superstar what another loss on the big stage means for LeBron.

FYI -- James is now 3-5 all-time in the NBA Finals ... not exactly dominant, but not too shabby either.

Game DOESN'T hold back (when does he?) saying LeBron isn't on the level of The Mamba & his Airness, 'cause he's just done too much losing.

The Golden State Warriors had so much energy left after crushing the Cleveland Cavaliers, they partied their faces off all night long ... poppin' champagne, dancing and raging with fans!

After the final buzzer, a bunch of the Warriors hit up Harlot Nightclub in San Fran -- where the guys partied with more than $150k in Moet & Chandon bubbly.

We're told the players and their friends ripped through 80 bottles of champagne in total -- including 2 custom 6 liter Moet & Chandon Nectar Rose bottles (they usually run about $15k each).

Too Short, E-40, and Terrell Owens also attended the festivities.

But maybe the best part of the celebration -- Kevin Durant yelling with fans while holding his NBA Finals MVP trophy. Awesome moment.

Other highlights include champagne showers in the locker room and Steph Curry enjoying a celebratory dance with his wife, Ayesha.

Congrats to the champs!

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson just proved even millionaire NBA players LOVE finding free money -- 'cause the Brooklyn Nets player threw a dance party on the beach after finding a $5 bill!

The 22-year-old was takin' a dip in the Atlantic Ocean while on vacation in South Beach when the bill floated up to him. RHJ took it as a sign from a higher power, and broke into some epic song and dance.

Jim Brown is a huge fan of LeBron James -- saying he's not only a "great champion" ... but a hero off the court.

We saw the Cleveland Browns legend at LAX Monday and asked for his thoughts on LeBron's home getting vandalized with racist graffiti. Brown boiled it down to a matter of right and wrong.

6:45 AM PT -- Telfair was released on $75,000 bond around 12:30am.

Telfair's bail bondsman, Ira Judelson, tells us Telfair lives in Florida and has a license for guns there, but not in New York.

Former NBA player Sebastian Telfair was arrested this weekend with a small arsenal on him that made it seem like he was ready for military combat.

32-year-old Telfair and an 18-year-old man, Jami Thomas, were busted by Brooklyn PD Sunday while in possession of 4 firearms -- 3 pistols and what appears to be a semi-automatic rifle. Cops say he was also carrying a TON of rounds for the guns, as well as marijuana. Cops also found a bullet-proof vest in their Ford pickup truck, which reportedly carried Florida plates.

Officers took a photo of the weapons ... it looks like Telfair and his guy were ramping up for something major with this kind of fire power.

The ex-point guard played on a number of teams between 2004 and 2013 -- from the Portland Trail Blazers, the Boston Celtics, the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Los Angeles Clippers, the Cleveland Cavaliers and finally to the Toronto Raptors. He ended up playing professionally in China after that.

Telfair was arrested in 2007 after a loaded gun was found in his car, and pled guilty to criminal possession of a weapon.

Story developing ...

Ex-NBA player Darius Miles -- who made more than $60 MILLION in his career -- has lost all of his treasured belongings in a bankruptcy sale ... from his signed LeBron jersey to his waffle maker.

As we previously reported, Miles filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy last year -- and as part of the process, he was ordered to sell off his stuff to pay back creditors.

The sale went down in Illinois. Here's how it went.

-- LeBron James signed jersey ($1,500)

-- Larry Bird signed jersey ($100)

-- AR15 firearm ($500)

-- Beretta Cx4 Storm gun ($400)

-- Self-contained karaoke machine ($75)

-- Dirk Nowitzki signed shoe ($375)

-- Lamar Odom signed shoe ($225)

-- 5 VHS players (total of $21.50)

They even sold his toaster for $2.00

There was a lot more stuff -- and in total, Miles got $12,780 from the sale.

Rap star Riff Raff ain't the only famous dude in his family -- his cousin is a high school basketball phenom who's gone viral for dunk videos ... and Raff says he's got real NBA talent.

The Kardashians -- Khloe, Kourtney and Kris Jenner -- showed up to root on the Cleveland Cavaliers Friday night, which seemed like a sure-fire sign they would lose.

But they didn't!

The Cavs rolled the Golden State Warriors 137-116 to win Game 4 and avoid a sweep, and Khloe's boyfriend Tristan Thompson busted out of a slump to grab 10 boards and add 5 points and 5 assists.

Announcer Jeff Van Gundy even took a few moments early in the game to denounce the family curse ... and he was right.

There are a lot of reasons to be jealous of Zach LaVine -- the dude's rich, he's freakishly athletic, and most importantly ... he's got a smokin' hot girlfriend.

TMZ Sports met up with LaVine and girlfriend Hunter Mar outside TAO in L.A. Thursday night, giving us the perfect opportunity to showcase his high school sweetheart.

20-year-old Mar is an athlete herself -- she played college soccer at Seattle U. -- and has been tied to LaVine since their days in Washington.

Enes Kanter has a big celebrity supporter -- Kristin Chenoweth -- who says the U.S. government should step in and help the NBA star become an American citizen ASAP.

Enes is in the middle of an international controversy -- a warrant has been issued for his arrest in his native Turkey where he's spoken out against the government. His father was recently arrested.

Enes is currently in the U.S. and says he's trying to get American citizenship. He says he's currently "countryless."

Kristin is a huge OKC Thunder fan and has been following the saga -- and explained to TMZ Sports why it's important for Enes to get U.S. citizenship. She's also praying for Kanter's father.

LeBron James says Cavs owner Dan Gilbert "completely bashed" him in that infamous 2010 letter about LBJ leaving for Miami ... and Bron says it was so disrespectful, it almost stopped him from returning to Cleveland in 2014.

LeBron opened up about the letter on Uninterrupted's "The Shop" -- which was shot during All Star Weekend but released Friday.

Gilbert's letter was loaded with insults -- even referring to LeBron as the "self-titled former King."

In the video, LeBron says Gilbert "completely bashed me and disrespected not only me as an individual but disrespected my name. And my name is not just myself, it's my wife, my kids, my grandfather, my mother, so many more people."

Bron goes on to say the letter was so hurtful, when the opportunity came to return to the Cavs in 2014, his family members were adamantly against it.

"My wife was like, 'f*ck that. I ain't with that' ... My mom was definitely like, 'f*ck that. We ain't going back.'"

But James ultimately says his return was about "the bigger picture" and wanted to be an inspiration to the people of The Land, despite his family's wishes.

John Salley vehemently refuses to even entertain the idea that the '17 Golden State Warriors have passed the '96 Chicago Bulls as the greatest team ever.

Salley -- who played with Michael Jordan on the legendary '96 Bulls team -- was leaving Craig's in WeHo when we had to ask straight-up: could Steph Curry and Kevin Durant have beaten M.J. and Scottie Pippen?

Salley: "Are you kidding me!?"

He breaks down the matchup -- player by player -- and scoffs at the idea that Steph would shoot the Bulls outta the arena.

Kris Humphries knows when to pull out ... and the housing market rewarded him handsomely.

The Atlanta Hawks center just sold his Bev Hills pad for $8.25 million, which is a KILLING ... considering he bought the 3, bedroom, 4 bath house for $6.2 mil back in 2015.

The 3,336 square foot house sits on nearly an acre with unobstructed city and coastline views. The house features tons of glass walls, gourmet kitchen and a den with a wet bar.

1:19 PM PT -- Withey's attorney Alan Jackson tells TMZ Sports, "This was an apparent pathetic attempt at a shakedown that we saw a mile away and we are thankful the DA recognized that."

Utah Jazz center Jeff Withey will NOT be prosecuted for domestic violence -- despite the fact cops believe there WAS a physical altercation with his Playboy Playmate ex-fiancee.

TMZ Sports has learned ... Withey was investigated by the Manhattan Beach PD after Kennedy Summers filed a police report accusing him of beating her up.

Investigators found evidence that Withey and Summers got into a physical altercation during an argument in July 2016 ... with Withey admitting he used force against Summers, which left bruises on her thigh.

But -- and this is the key part of the investigation -- cops believe the evidence shows Summers initiated the altercation by jumping on him and hitting him after accusing Withey of cheating on her.

Officials say they believe Withey has a "reasonable claim of self-defense in that he was trying to get [Summers] off him." They also say Withey "never admits to striking [Summers] out of anger."

Summers did have bruises on her thigh from the incident but no other visible injuries.

We're told the findings were brought to the L.A. County District Attorney's Office -- and the decision was made to NOT move forward with the case. In short, Withey is off the hook.
