Games will be broadcast across TNT, ESPN, ABC, NBA TV and ESPN Radio in the US over the season, while NBA TV and NBA League Pass will broadcast games internationally. The dominant talking point of the NBA offseason was what color jersey Damian Lillard would be putting on this season. Holiday dribbles during the second half of the Celtics' preseason game against the New York Knicks.

“I will play in the Olympics next year,” Durant adamantly said at Phoenix’s media day. Hopefully this will help remind him.”Durant could join six women, all of them Americans, with four Olympic basketball golds. It’s been reasonable to think that USA Basketball will have plenty of experienced options to choose from next year. That pushes the list of realistic candidates for USA Basketball to choose from to about 40 names, at minimum. “I think anytime you’re asked to play for USA Basketball, it’s really hard to say no,” Miami forward and Olympic gold medalist Kevin Love said.

French Montana Lists His Los Angeles Mansion
  + stars: | 2023-06-26 | by ( Debra Kamin | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
Karim Kharbouch, better known by his stage name French Montana, is bidding adieu to his 1.35-acre compound in Los Angeles’s exclusive Hidden Hills neighborhood, asking $22.75 million for the seven-bedroom, nine-bath home in one of the city’s most celebrity-studded communities. The Moroccan-born rapper bought the home in late 2020 from the basketball player Paul George, an all-star forward for the Los Angeles Clippers. He paid $8.4 million, which was something of a bargain: Mr. George had initially asked $9.5 million for the property, which is tucked behind gates on grounds that include a full-size basketball court, a fire pit, pool and spa with stone decking, and garages for five cars, and was willing to take the $1 million price cut after the property languished on the market for six months.
