格莱美奖获得者兼作曲家约翰·传奇 (John Legend) 在圣安东尼奥马刺队于 3 月 16 日星期一战胜洛杉矶快船队之前会见了圣安东尼奥马刺队球星维克多·温班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 和哈里森·巴恩斯 (Harrison Barnes)。

马刺队分享了一张传奇人物和他的儿子迈尔斯·西奥多·斯蒂芬斯在赛后与温比和巴恩斯合影的照片。当然，他们即将取得胜利，所以温班亚马和巴恩斯都笑逐颜开。

鉴于传奇人物的名人地位，他在比赛期间与儿子坐在场边也就不足为奇了。他和他的儿子很享受这场比赛，马刺队克服了落后，赢得了今年的第 50 场比赛。

早些时候，马刺队对阵快船队的情况看起来并不好。比赛刚开始几分钟，他们就以17-3落后，但他们并没有落后太久。

最终，马刺队凭借斯蒂芬·卡斯尔的23分夺得冠军。温比拿下全队最高的21分、13个篮板和2次助攻。巴恩斯替补出场18分钟也得到8分。

目前，马刺队在西部联盟中排名第二，落后于53胜15负的俄克拉荷马城雷霆队。幸运的是，他们领先联盟第三的洛杉矶湖人队七场比赛。

马刺队刚刚击败的球队快船队以 34-34 的比分领先 0.500。这使得他们在西部排名第八，处于季后赛争夺的边缘。

温比正在经历他职业生涯中最好的赛季之一。第三年，他场均得到24.3分（追平职业生涯新高）、11.2个篮板和2.9次助攻。他还平均每场比赛完成一次抢断和三个盖帽。

他是 2023 年 NBA 选秀大会的状元秀。温班亚马从此成为马刺队的焦点人物，他是球队2025-26赛季的头号得分手。

Grammy-winning singer-songwriter John Legend got a chance to meet San Antonio Spurs stars Victor Wembanyama and Harrison Barnes ahead of the team’s win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday, March 16.

The Spurs shared a photo of the legend and his son, Miles Theodore Stephens, taking a selfie with Wembley and Barnes after the game. Of course, they were coming off a win, so Vembanyama and Barnes were smiling.

Given Legend’s celebrity status, it’s no surprise that he sat courtside with his son during the game. He and his son were enjoying the game as the Spurs overcame the deficit to win their 50th game of the year.

Victor Wembanyama leads Spurs to win number 50

Early on, things were not looking good for the Spurs against the Clippers. They fell behind 17-3 just minutes after the game started, but they didn’t hold on for long.

Ultimately, San Antonio came out on top with Stephen Cassel’s 23 points. Wemby had 21 points, a team-leading 13 rebounds and two assists. Barnes also scored eight points in 18 minutes off the bench.

Currently, the Spurs are in second place in the Western Conference behind the 53–15 Oklahoma City Thunder. Fortunately, they have a seven-game lead over the Los Angeles Lakers, who are in third place in the conference.

The team the Spurs just beat, the Clippers, is .500 at 34-34. This puts them in eighth place in the Western Conference and on the verge of playoff contention.

Wembley is having one of the best seasons of his career. In his third year, he averaged 24.3 points (at the top of his career), 11.2 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game. He also averages one steal and three blocks per game.

He was the first overall pick in the 2023 NBA draft. Vembanyama has since become a focal point for Spurs, and he is the team’s leading scorer during the 2025–26 season.

The trajectory of the Dallas Mavericks franchise changed on February 1, 2025, when the franchise inexplicably traded superstar guard Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers were gifted a 25-year-old megastar after their first NBA Finals appearance, while the Lakers traded away 31-year-old Anthony Davis, 21-year-old Max Christie and a 2029 first-round pick.

Dallas has been unable to recover from the brutal trade, and fans said they would not be satisfied until Nico Harrison was fired, which came less than a year after the trade was pulled off.

The Mavs selected Cooper Flagg with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft last year, and hope to add another piece to their puzzle this summer.

In a recent interview with Adam Friedland on The Adam Friedland Show, former Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban talked about the franchise’s decision to trade Luka Doncic without consulting him.

“Do you regret hiring Nico Harrison? Cuban was asked.

“Yeah, sometimes, I do,” Cuban replied. “When we do stupid things like the Luka trade. I miss it because I think the fans have been let down, and I think because I’ve let them down. That’s what bothers me the most.

“As much as I loved it, and I still love the Mavs. I’ll always be a Mavs fan, sometimes there’s bigger things to do. I love the Mavs.”

To this day, Mark Cuban says he still remembers exactly where he was and how the famous Luka Doncic deal happened.

“I remember exactly where I was,” Cuban said. “I was talking to Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, literally I was at a health care event and there were six or seven politicians there. We were having beers and I got a message from our general manager and he said, ‘Hey can you talk?’

“I hired him. Yeah, looking back now, it was a mistake. He was like, ‘Mark call me,’ and I did and when he told me about it, I thought he was asking me instead of telling me and he said, ‘No, it’s done.’ And I was like fuck?!

Mark Cuban has retained a small ownership stake after once seeing the majority prior to the Doncic trade. At 23-41 on the season, the Dallas Mavericks are the third-worst team in the Western Conference and will hopefully be able to acquire pieces that will best complement each other.

Harrison Barnes is generally the gold standard for NBA credibility. Before Tuesday night, the San Antonio Spurs forward had not missed a single professional basketball game since the end of 2021. But even the league’s most durable giants are no match for the dangers of the mid-day snooze.

In one of the most bizarre injury reports you’ll ever see, Barnes was a late scratch for Tuesday’s matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers. The reason was as simple as it was frustrating: Via AP News, he woke up with left ankle pain after a pre-game nap.

The temporary injury officially broke his incredible streak of 364 consecutive games played. The last time Barnes was eliminated from a competition was in December. 4, 2021, when he was a member of the Sacramento Kings. Since then, he has been a fixture on the court, and has provided a steady veteran presence for whatever team he has represented.

Spurs head coach Mitch Johnson had to adapt quickly without his experienced forwards, but the rest of the roster left no stone unturned. San Antonio completely destroyed a shorthanded Philadelphia team in a 131-91 blowout loss at Xfinity Mobile Arena. Devin Vassell led the scoring charge with 22 points, including six three-pointers, while rookie Dylan Harper provided a big spark off the bench with his 22 points.

Victor Wembanyama didn’t have to carry the heavy scoring load, but remained a defensive terror, finishing with 10 points, eight rebounds and six blocks in just 24 minutes. Stephen Cassel also had a stellar performance with a 15-point, 10-assist double-double, while De’Aaron Fox led the offense with 11 points and seven assists. Tyrese Maxey, on the other hand, put up a lone battle for the Sixers and finished with 21 points and eight rebounds.

It’s a tough way to end a great “Iron Man” race. Barnes was not sidelined due to a hard screen or a playoff foul; He was betrayed only by his own bed. While Spurs have dominated without him, they will soon need his consistency. Barnes has already been ruled out for the upcoming game against the Detroit Pistons, meaning the wait for his new streak to start continues.

Despite putting in big numbers this year, Luka Doncic has faced heavy criticism this season. From the discussion about his foul play to a heliocentric game that people consider “undesirable”, Doncic has gone through a lot of discussion as the Lakers try to steady themselves in the final stretch of the regular season.

Draymond Green, Golden State Warriors star and host of his eponymous podcast, decided to weigh in on the discussion, taking the media to task for its criticism of Doncic, but saying it was the same criticism that prompted Harrison to be traded in the first place.

A lot of people crushed on Nico for the reasons he gave. When Nico gave those reasons everyone said he was ridiculous, he was crazy. Now when I turn on the TV all I see is the media that trashed Nico, which essentially got him fired, repeating the same things Nico Harrison was saying. I haven’t seen anyone come out and say, ‘Hey Nico, I’m sorry for the things I said about you when you did these things because I said the same things out of my own mouth.’

Green said, “It has nothing to do with Luca and it has nothing to do with the media and Nico Harrison. Nico gave his reasoning for why he felt it was the right move. Everyone said ‘You’re an idiot.’

Harrison’s criticism of Doncic focused on a mix of on-court and off-court factors. The former Mavericks star was due to receive a five-year, $345 million supermax extension in the summer of 2025 and Harrison raised issues about Doncic’s condition, off-court habits and a chronic calf strain that sidelined him to the point of being traded to the Lakers.

Harrison was eventually relieved of his duties with the Mavericks after a disappointing start to the season.

厚實的踢球手幫助洛杉磯公羊隊進入 NFC 冠軍賽

在那場精彩的比賽中，威廉姆斯向後退了 25 碼，到達洛杉磯 40 碼，然後他傳出一記高弓形傳球，被科梅特在達陣區接住。

在加時賽中，公羊隊在第一次控球時被迫棄踢，熊隊在隨後的控球時有機會贏得比賽。熊隊將球從他們自己的 16 號球轉移到芝加哥 48 號球，一路上轉換成 4 號球和 1 號球。然而，在第二次進攻中，威廉姆斯試圖以交叉方式擊中頂級接球手 DJ Moore，但傳球被公羊隊 22 號的卡姆·科爾 (Kam Curl) 攔截，給了公羊隊另一次控球機會。

斯塔福德帶領公羊隊進入 NFC 冠軍賽

四分衛馬修·斯塔福德不會讓這個機會從他的指縫中溜走。他帶領公羊隊完成了 10 次進攻，推進 54 碼，並與明星外接手普卡·納庫亞 (Puka Nacua) 和達萬特·亞當斯 (Davante Adams) 進行關鍵傳球，幫助球隊轉移到熊隊 24 區。

梅維斯冷靜地踏上冰凍的士兵場草坪，在立柱之間射出製胜球，為洛杉磯隊帶來勝利。

斯塔福德在比賽中的數據並不出色，他42次傳球完成20次，推進258碼，沒有達陣。然而，他並沒有進行攔截。威廉姆斯在本賽季創造瞭如此多戲劇性的逆轉，他完成了 3 次攔截，這證明了比賽的不同。

公羊隊是分區季后賽中唯一一支獲勝的客場球隊，他們將在流明球場 (Lumen Field) 的 NFC 冠軍賽中迎戰西雅圖海鷹隊。
