Leaked All-Star Jerseys Have Sleeves
The uniform designs for this season’s NBA All-Star Game, which will be played on Feb. 16 in New Orleans, leaked on the Internet on Thursday. And in a development that probably won’t surprise most fans, they feature sleeves.
The East and West designs both feature a large Fleur de lis on the chest and uniform numbers on the left sleeve — a format similar to the “Big Logo” jerseys that 10 NBA teams wore on Christmas Day. The East version is blue with greenish-teal trim, while the West version is red with purple trim.
After another dreadful start to a season, the New York Knicks have reportedly targeted Toronto Raptors president Masai Ujiri as someone who can turn things around.
According to Frank Isola of The Athletic, owner James Dolan is “plotting to take another run” at Ujiri, even if it takes “Phil Jackson-type money” to lure him away from the reigning NBA champions.
The Knicks are 2-8 to begin the 2019-20 campaign, and Isola reported “time may be running out” for current Knicks president Steve Mills.
Even before a startling news conference in the wake of a blowout loss to Cleveland on Sunday, New York Knicks president Steve Mills had started to lay the internal groundwork for the eventual dismissal of coach David Fizdale, league sources told ESPN.
Mills is selling owner James Dolan on a roster constructed to be highly competitive in the Eastern Conference, leaving Fizdale vulnerable to an ouster only weeks into the second season of a four-year contract that league sources say is worth $22 million.
Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward underwent successful surgery today to repair a fourth metacarpal fracture in his left hand. The injury occurred during Saturday night’s game against the San Antonio Spurs. He is expected to return to play in approximately six weeks.
