More on this storyline

What would you do if someone challenged you to a $100,000 one-on-one basketball game? Well, in the NBA world, that kind of bet isn’t just talk – it’s a statement, a statement of ego. Recently, the basketball courts got blown away. Patrick Beverley tossed a $100K battle at Brandon Jennings, daring him to a 1 v 1 showdown. But before anything could hit the court, something wild happened. And no, it wasn’t Jennings stepping up. Let’s rewind a little and zoom in. Beverley, never the one to hold back, didn’t just talk, instead, he called out Jennings with a real-money challenge. This questioned not just Brandon’s skills, but his toughness. And for a hot minute, all eyes were on Jennings – would he respond? Would the former Bucks guard rise to this moment and go at Beverley in a 1v1 all-in match for six figures? But out of nowhere, the plot twisted in true basketball overtime fashion. Enter Nick Young, aka Swaggy P. With Jennings ducking the callout, Young took to his social media and threw his own name into the ring. “See me, play me,” he barked at Beverley, “I would make some easy money after the recession…I need it.” He didn’t just voice his opinion; he also supported Jennings. “BJ, I got you,” he told his co-host. -via Essentially Sports / April 18, 2025

“That’s who I am,” said Haliburton, who had 21 points and 12 assists in a 123-115 win that put the Pacers up 2-0 in the series. “Anybody who’s watched me play over the course of my career knows who I am. I’m an emotional guy. I play with my emotions. I wear my emotions on my sleeve. I want to win. I could care less about what comes for me individually. I just want to win. And that’s what I want to be known as. What have I done? How did I impact winning?” -via New York Times / April 23, 2025
Tyrese Haliburton: “Everybody says league rivalries aren’t here anymore, well it’s right here. It’s fun. I’m not gonna sit here and lie to you. It’s some fun shit now” -via Bluesky / April 23, 2025
