Green, the boisterous big man who just claimed his fourth NBA Finals championship trophy with the Warriors since their dynasty began in 2014 is eligible for a new contract as soon August 3, and sources told The Athletic’s… Source link

Two Colorado Avalanche fans had their night in Las Vegas go from bad to worse on Thursday. Sitting in the front row, watching their team get eliminated in Game 6 of the second round against the Golden Knights, they were already disappointed, but one Vegas fan decided to agitate them further. As they wallowed in their fan misery, one fan in a blank “Reverse Retro” Vegas jersey — terrible choice — snatched their Avalanche flag that was hung on the barriers in front of them.
