NBA insiders Bobby Marks, Sam Esfandiari, and Kirk Henderson join Kevin O’Connor at Summer League to break down the latest buzz—from potential team moves to Cooper Flagg’s rising stock, Steph Curry’s influence, and the messy reality of the Warriors’ two-timeline strategy. It’s a candid, behind-the-scenes look at the league’s hottest topics.

Editor’s Note: Summer League isn’t just about rookies—it’s where execs, analysts, and reporters hash out the big-picture questions shaping the NBA. This conversation matters because it gives fans a peek into the strategies (and missteps) that could define next season, like whether the Warriors’ dual-timeline approach is still viable or if Flagg’s hype is legit. If you care about roster drama and front-office logic, this is your backstage pass.

Kyle Schwarber went full superhero mode at the All-Star Game, smashing three home runs in the first-ever swing-off tiebreaker to push the National League past the American League. It was the kind of jaw-dropping performance that turns a fun exhibition into an instant classic.

Editor’s Note: The All-Star Game is usually a laid-back showcase, but Schwarber’s fireworks—especially in the new tiebreaker format—gave fans a thrilling reason to care. It’s a reminder that even in a "just for fun" game, moments like this can etch a player’s name into baseball lore. Plus, the NL snapping a long AL win streak adds a little extra bragging rights.

The Indiana Fever notched their third consecutive win with an 85-77 victory over the Connecticut Sun in front of a packed TD Garden crowd. The team came out blazing, hitting their first eight shots, with Natasha Howard contributing 10 early points. But the bigger story is Fever coach Stephanie White finally addressing concerns about Caitlin Clark’s apparent injury—something fans have been buzzing about.

Editor’s Note: While the Fever’s winning streak is exciting, Clark’s health is a lingering question. She’s a marquee player, and any uncertainty around her status could impact the team’s momentum—especially with fans showing up in droves to see her play. White’s comments could either calm nerves or fuel more speculation.

Kyle Schwarber went full beast mode at the MLB All-Star Game, smashing three homers in a tiebreaking home run derby to seal the National League's victory over the American League. The Phillies slugger stole the show with his late-game power surge, turning what could’ve been a quiet ending into a fireworks display.

Editor’s Note: All-Star Games can sometimes feel like glorified exhibitions, but moments like Schwarber’s derby heroics remind fans why they’re fun—pure, unscripted drama. It’s a win for the NL, sure, but also for baseball’s entertainment factor, especially when a player delivers unexpected thrills. Plus, Schwarber’s performance might just spark some second-half momentum for him and the Phillies.

The Lakers' summer league run just got a little longer—they've added one more game to their schedule in Las Vegas. After wrapping up their Thursday matchup against the Celtics, they'll squeeze in a final appearance before the summer league wraps up.
