TO THE BOOKER MOBILE!

Devin Booker let his car do the talking Sunday night ... and we were listening -- 'cause his murdered-out Ferrari was singing!!

We got the quiet Phoenix Suns superstar -- and what looks like a Ferrari 488 -- outside of Craig's with a lady friend when we couldn't help but linger on the $250,000-plus machine.

The whip was dope ... with a sleek matte black finish that made it look straight outta Bruce Wayne's garage.

By the way, Booker did have some comments on Joel Embiid clowning on his new teammate, Deandre Ayton ... but, try your best to hear them over the 660 horses purring!!

T.I. ATL Advice For Trae Young ... STAY OUT THE BOOTY CLUB

BEST BEHAVIOR

T.I. is the King of Atlanta ... Trae Young is ATL's brand new basketball star ... so it's only right that the King bestow some words onto the kid, and he's using TMZ Sports as his royal messenger.

We got T.I. at LAX and asked him if he had any advice for the former Oklahoma star ... who's headed to hoop for ATL as a rookie for the Hawks.

Tip obliges us ... and tells our guy the one place Trae should steer clear of is Magic City ... one of the greatest shake joints of all time ... because the kid needs to concentrate on basketball.

Here's the thing ... we love T.I., but we're not sure he's right here. Not going as a matter of fact, it's kinda pointless to live in ATL and not visit this place and the places like it.

So, we're gonna say this ... Trae, test it out ... just not TOO often, and have fun while you're there, kid.

Carmelo And La La Anthony Visit Family Of Murdered NYC Teen

Published | Updated

Carmelo and La La Anthony spent part of La La's birthday Monday visiting the home of a slain 15-year-old boy to provide condolences and gifts to the murdered child's family.

Lesandro Guzman-Feliz was brutally stabbed to death after being dragged out of a corner store last week.

When La La was contacted by the boy's sister and informed he was a huge Melo fan ... she brought the NBA superstar right to his fam's doorstep.

"This is what I wanted to do for my birthday today," La La said of the trip.

"Thank you to the gram for connecting me to this family. I wanted to offer our love and support to Lesandro 'Junior’s' family. His sister reached out and told me he loved Melo."

"So I asked Mel to go with me. I can’t imagine this type of pain and sadness. His family is strong and may God bless them forever."

In addition to signed jerseys and sneakers ... La La says she and Carmelo did far more than that for the family -- and urged others to donate.

"This family will be in my heart forever," she wrote. "#justiceforjunior #justiceforjunior."

STATEMENT PIECE

Ex-NBA star Al Harrington wants everyone to know he's NOT a Donald Trump fan -- so, he wore a shirt spelling it out for everyone in Hollywood.

Taking a page from Melania Trump's playbook, Harrington used his back as a billboard -- his message read, "Anti Trump Social Club."

And if you're not into politics, Harrington also backs Master P -- who recently told us LiAngelo Ball should go back to college and get a degree.

And, if you're not into that either ... ya gotta check out Al's Rolls-Royce Wraith with the suicide doors!

Khloe Kardashian Huge Rock on My Hand is Bright Spot Of Boring Date with Tristan

Published | Updated

Khloe Kardashian's flashing a massive rock on her left ring finger which might have ya thinking she's engaged to Tristan Thompson ... but don't go buying a gift yet.

Khloe and Tristan had dinner Sunday night at BOA Steakhouse on the Sunset Strip ... and from the look of things, it wasn't the most exciting date night. Khloe seemed to be giving Tristan serious side-eye while he looks at something other than her -- maybe his phone or the menu.

But the bling on her hand was a definite bright spot. Khloe's dressed up that finger before, so we're not jumping the gun on engagement news.

Yes, their relationship's been a roller coaster since the whole cheating and embarrassing her thing -- and yes ... they've put it behind them. Still, a marriage proposal right now would be pretty shocking.

Nate Diaz Fights In Stands at MMA Event ... Again

Published | Updated

Seems like Nate Diaz is itching for a fight ... because he got in the middle of ANOTHER brawl at an MMA event and TMZ Sports has the video.

It all went down Friday night in the crowd of the Fight to Win Pro 77 event at the Hyatt hotel in Sacramento -- where we're told Nate was supporting some of his MMA students, who were competing in the all-grappling event.

In the video, you can see several people in the melee -- and Nate appears to wind up and throw a punch at one of the men being separated.

Witnesses tell us no one was arrested -- Nate got his crew and left.

It's the second time Nate's been in a fight in the stands of MMA event this year -- back in May, Diaz got into it with UFC fighter Clay Guida at a Combate Americas event in Sacramento.

It all begs the question ... why does he keep fighting for free in the stands when he could make MILLIONS doing the same thing in the Octagon?!

Willie Cauley-Stein LeBron's Coming to Lakers

NO DOUBT ABOUT IT

At least one NBA star is convinced LeBron James has already made up his mind ... with Willie Cauley-Stein telling TMZ Sports the King is coming to L.A.

"He's coming HERE," the Sacramento Kings star told us outside Nightingale Plaza nightclub in L.A.

He also noted that there's no loyalty in the NBA, so anything is on the table when it comes to players and teams making moves.

By the way, Willie is DRIPPIN' in this clip -- with a Gucci bandana around his head, all sorts of diamonds around his neck and a Louis Vuitton x Supreme side bag around his chest.

Willie is toward the end of a 4-year, $15 million contract ... and will probably sign a huge deal moving forward -- so, why not spend if you're gonna get it?!

Tennis Star Nick Kyrgios Stiff Fine ... For Penis Bottle Joke

Published | Updated

Tennis star Nick Kyrgios was slapped with a hard fine of $17,500 for pretending his water bottle was a penis ... and masturbating it on the court.

It all went down Saturday during his Queen’s Club Championship semi-final match when cameras caught the tennis bad boy simulating a 5-knuckle shuffle on his water bottle ... complete with a finish.

The tournament's supervisor, Lars Graff, hit the 23-year-old with the fine ... but would only cite "inappropriate behavior" for the penalty.

Guess miming masturbation with a water bottle isn't quite in the written no-nos of tennis' rulebook just yet.

FYI ... Kyrgios was the same dude the ATP had to fine $10,000 a few years ago for hurling some epic trash talk at Stan Wawrinka.

Rod Stewart Clowns Argetina ... For Pathetic World Cup

Published | Updated
Rod Stewart
TRASH!

Wanna see Rod Stewart mock Argentina for sucking in the World Cup and then defend Sweden?

Great, you're gonna love this clip!

The singer -- who's a MASSIVE soccer fan -- hit up Delilah for dinner over the weekend, when he stopped to talk World Cup.

His big beef ... he thinks Sweden got screwed out of a penalty kick during the match with Germany on Saturday when Marcus Berg had a breakaway shot.

Germany's Jerome Boateng raced in and manhandled Berg -- right in the penalty box -- but somehow, no penalty was called, which really pissed off Fox Sports analyst Stuart Holden.

Clearly, Rod Stewart agrees -- saying, "I think Sweden were robbed of a penalty."

Germany ultimately got the victory -- and now Stewart thinks they've got a real shot.

But the best part of the clip ... we asked Rod what he thought of Argentina and he screamed out, "USELESS!!!!"

Mark Cuban Praises Red Hen for 86ing Sanders ... Trump Blasts Restaurant as 'Dirty'

Published | Updated

Mark Cuban has high praise for the restaurant owner who kicked Sarah Huckabee Sanders out of her restaurant over the weekend, while Donald Trump went on a rant claiming the eatery is filthy.

We got Cuban leaving Nate 'n Als Sunday in Bev Hills and, although he thinks it's good the restaurant owner took a moral stand, he worries it could become a slippery slope and other owners could deny service based on race or sexual orientation. The good news ... under federal law, an owner can't discriminate based on race. The laws governing sexual orientation are dicier.

On the other side ... Donald Trump -- the man who praised Kim Jong-un -- excoriated the restaurant by tweeting, "The Red Hen Restaurant should focus more on cleaning its filthy canopies, doors and windows (badly needs a paint job) rather than refusing to serve a fine person like Sarah Huckabee Sanders. I always had a rule, if a restaurant is dirty on the outside, it is dirty on the inside!"

Trump's baseless claim contains no information suggesting how The Red Hen is unsanitary. Fact is ... before this weekend's incident, Yelp gave the place a 4.5 rating out of 5.

Aaron Hernandez Fiancee Gives Birth to Baby Girl

Published | Updated

The woman who was engaged to Aaron Hernandez has given birth to a baby girl ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Sources close to the family tell us ... Shayanna Jenkins-Hernandez -- who has a previous child with the late New England Patriots star -- welcomed a healthy baby in a Rhode Island hospital on June 16.

There were rumors that Aaron was the biological father (the product of frozen sperm) -- but that's NOT the case.

We're told the father of the child is Dino Guilmette, an amateur boxer from Providence. We're told both parents are excited for the happy and healthy baby.

Jenkins kept the pregnancy under wraps until last month ... saying, "I couldn’t be a luckier woman to have such a perfect little girl that’s prepared to become the best big sister, and even more blessed to welcome another babygirl to our home."

Congrats!!

George Lopez Rips U.S. Soccer How Do You Like Being Kept Out?!

Published | Updated

George Lopez just went off on Team USA soccer -- blasting the team for not qualifying for the World Cup.

But it's clear, George's beef is less about soccer ... and more about the way he feels Latinos are being mistreated in America.

"The U.S. is trying to keep Mexico out. Meanwhile, the United States can't even qualify for the World Cup."

"They're too busy pointing f*cking fingers to be looking to see where the ball's going."

Lopez added ... "The same people that are pointing the fingers are the same people that have Latinos come to their house every day and fix their meals, and change their kids, and clean their house and cut their grass, its hypocritical."

"You know what? I have the power to tell all of your nannies that while you're at work ... to take YOUR kids and see how you like it."

T.J. Dillashaw Mighty Mouse Is Ducking Me

Published | Updated

Demetrious Johnson vs. T.J. Dillashaw is the blockbuster fight everyone wants to see ... so why the hell hasn't it been made?

'Cause Mighty Mouse knows T.J. can beat his ass -- and he's scared ... according to Dillashaw.

The reigning UFC bantamweight champ joined the guys on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (weeknights on FS1) and was asked if he thought DJ was ducking him.

His answer ... "I do believe so."

"He's comfortable fighting the guys he's fighting. I think I bring a real threat to the table that he's not willing to accept."

Let that sink in ... Dillashaw is saying Mighty Mouse -- the top pound-for-pound fighter in the UFC who hasn't lost in almost 7 years -- is shook.

Guessing DJ feels differently ...

MAN OF MANY TALENTS

Move over Marilyn Monroe -- okay, not really -- but you gotta hand it to Dennis Rodman for breaking out in song as a fun surprise for a guy on his 60th bday.

The man's name is Bobby, and his family tells TMZ ... they were celebrating at Casa Machado Restaurant in San Diego Saturday afternoon when they noticed the NBA legend was there, too.

We're told they asked Rodman if he'd take a pic with Bobby, but he told them he could do better than that ... and so he did.

First diplomacy, now this. Is there anything the Worm can't do?

Lawrence Taylor I Can't Condemn Jameis Winston But He Should Know Better

NOT A GREAT LOOK

Lawrence Taylor says he's not ready to condemn Jameis Winston for the Uber incident that led to his suspension ... but tells TMZ Sports the QB should've NEVER put himself in that spot.

Winston has been suspended by the NFL for three games after the NFL did an investigation into allegations that he groped an Uber driver back in 2016.

LT had his fair share of off-the-field turmoil during his playing days ... so, when we talked with him out in Georgia he stopped short at condemning Winston, but still had words for the youngster.

"Especially with the problems he's had you'd think he'd make better judgements than that."

FYI -- Winston's problems include a sexual assault allegation, and two shoplifting incidents before this latest situation.

Still ... LT has his own opinions about the accuser's motives, saying, you can't rule out someone that might be looking for quick fame and a quick buck.

"I just hope it's not a situation where someone wants to be in this #MeToo genre."
