NBA

Kiss the days of the family-friendly Kiss Cam goodbye ... there was another NSFW moment, courtesy of two Sacramento Kings fans, who used their screen time for nefarious reasons!

The moment occurred during a break in the action during the second quarter of the Kings vs. Houston Rockets game Tuesday night in Sac Town ... with the team showing couples from around the arena on the Kiss Cam.

While most fans stayed on script ... one woman took it to a much more raunchy level, mimicking oral sex on her man.

Luka Doncic wasn't just droppin' buckets on Tuesday ... the NBA star seemingly mouthed a soap-worthy phrase after receiving a controversial technical foul.

The apparent remark happened during the NBA Cup matchup between the Memphis Grizzlies and Dallas Mavericks at the American Airlines Center ... when a referee whistled a foul on the 6'7" guard as he was defending Ja Morant.

Doncic disagreed with the call and waved off the ref ... and the gesture resulted in his fifth tech of the season.

Kyrie Irving is being dragged to court by a health and wellness company that claims the NBA superstar stiffed it out of nearly $400,000.

The allegations are all spelled out in a new lawsuit, obtained by TMZ Sports, that was filed on Monday in New York.

The plaintiffs, Elite Mind Solutions, allege Irving hired them and their high-profile therapist, Natasha McCartney, in the spring of 2024 to work a family retreat the basketball player was putting on for friends and family from June 28 to July 2.

Everybody has something to say about Bronny James ... but when it comes to his teammates, it sounds like they have nothing but glowing reviews -- with Armel Traore telling TMZ Sports he's got serious love for his fellow rookie.

We caught up with the Lakers' two-way player out at LAX ... and asked him what it has been like spending time with Bronny.

"He's my guy," he said. "And I like everyone on the team, we're a family."

Gilbert Arenas' high school superstar son, Alijah, tells TMZ Sports he'd wreck pops in 1-on-1 right now ... but the only problem?? He claims the ex-NBA star is ducking him!!

We caught up with the Arenas fam at LAX recently ... and asked who currently holds the bragging rights on the court.

"You gonna answer that?" Gilbert asked Alijah with a smirk. "He ain't got a win yet!"

Jalen Rose wasted no time letting the zingers fly on the "Inside the NBA" set ... cracking a joke about Drake's UMG lawsuit in his debut on the iconic show -- and his cohosts ate it up!!

The funny moment happened at halftime of the Lakers and Suns' NBA Cup matchup on Tuesday ... when Kendrick Lamar's new track, "tv off," started playing on the broadcast.

Just like K. Dot does on the song, Shaquille O'Neal immediately yelled out "Mustard!!!!!!" ... and Rose -- who was filling in for Kenny "The Jet" Smith -- made the quick quip.

Comedian Shane Gillis can't get enough of TikTokkin' Sixers rookie Jared McCain -- in fact, he says he pours his heart to the hooper when he's drunk ... but so far, he's being left on read.

The "Tires" actor made the hilarious admission during a recent episode of "Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast" ... when he said he's a huge fan of how McCain can balance being a professional basketball player and social media sensation at the same time.

"There's a bro I like right now," Gillis said. "His anima is fully liberated. Jared McCain for the Sixers. He's the guy doing the f***ing TikTok dances. His anima's out. He does not care."

Caitlin Clark and Connor McCaffery had the best seats in the house for the Indiana Pacers game on Monday ... sitting courtside with Tyrese Haliburton's girlfriend for the matchup!!

The former Iowa basketball players were spotted at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse for the Pacers' home contest against the New Orleans Pelicans ... and they appeared to be in great spirits.

The Fever star's presence certainly didn't go unnoticed ... as fans in attendance chanted her name.

7:04 AM PT -- The Sixers apparently caved to the trolling ... 'cause the post was just scrubbed from the team's X account.

The Philadelphia 76ers got a lesson in Graphic Design 101 on Sunday ... when the team used a throwback font to share the final score of the game on social media -- but it ended up being the butt of countless jokes.

The Sixers' X account -- which utilized retro theming to match the squad's classic jerseys worn for the matchup with the L.A. Clippers -- posted the end results of the contest.

Instead of focusing on the 125-99 defeat, many noticed the word "final" in the graphic looked a lot like "anal" ... and naturally, plenty of users pointed it out.

Charles Barkley is making it clear -- he hates the way the Lakers are handling Bronny James' rookie season ... calling it flat-out "stupid."

The Round Mound of Rebound went in on L.A. during an appearance on "The Bettor Angle" over the weekend ... after he was asked if he liked the Lakers' G League plan for LeBron's oldest son so far.

If you've missed it, the 20-year-old has been playing home games for the South Bay Lakers ... before joining Dad's squad for road tilts.

A major piece of LeBron and Bronny James history is up for grabs ... with the jerseys the father-son duo wore in their season-opening game hitting the auction block TOGETHER -- and, yeah, they ain't gonna come cheap.

The one-of-a-kind memorabilia set is available via Sotheby's ... and has already reached $70,000 with almost two weeks left for bidding.

Both jerseys are believed to have been worn for the Lakers' first game of the 2024-25 campaign against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Oct. 22 ... which L.A. won 110-103. LeBron scored 16 points in the contest ... adding four assists and five rebounds.

Heartbreaking news from Isaiah Thomas -- the NBA player just announced his older sister has passed away.

The 35-year-old point guard mourned the loss Wednesday evening ... posting an Instagram story tribute to LaQuisha Baldtrip.

"Ima miss you, big sis!!!" Thomas said on the post. "Damn, how you leave me too?"

Pete Davidson isn't keeping a low profile after inaccurate rumors about his personal life circulated on the Internet ... including a false claim he was in rehab after suffering a heartbreak.

Check it out ... the "Saturday Night Live" alum was all smiles while sitting courtside at the Brooklyn Nets game at Barclays Center Tuesday evening. Dressed in a brown Lehigh Athletics sweatshirt, white beanie, and jeans, Pete looked to be in high spirits ... which may've been because his mom, Amy, was by his side.

The Nets had a good game, defeating the Charlotte Hornets 116 to 115 in the Emirates NBA Cup face-off. So, Pete had plenty to smile about Tuesday night.

Philadelphia 76ers' rookie Jared McCain still makes time for social media and Spotify streaming -- and is adding his 2 cents to the All-RapCaviar Teams debate!!!

RapCaviar's editors recruited JM to vote for his 2024 Rapper and Rookie of the Year ... likely a much more fun task than Tuesday's team meeting where the 76ers argued about being last place in the Eastern Conference!!!

Arguments are flying left and right over the selections ... Drake is Spotify's top rapper in terms of streams but was only selected to the 3rd Team, and the 2024 Rap Wars were an undeniable factor!!!

Chicago Bulls legend Bob Love has passed away following a battle with cancer, the team announced. He was 81 years old.

"Bob is one of the original Bulls greats," Jerry Reinsdorf, Chicago Bulls chairman, said in a statement. "During his nine seasons with the Bulls, Bob became a cornerstone of the franchise, and his tenacious defense set high standards for competition and toughness."

"Toughness was not only a trademark of Bob’s play on the court, but also apparent in his resiliency throughout his basketball career."

"We are not going to make any comment on any mental health matter with our citizens," the spokesperson said.
