Draymond Green on Jonathan Kuminga: His valley was more on front street for everybody. Yes. But we all have our peaks and our valleys. And the reality is, what he said is correct. I love the way he handled it. One thing’s for certain — I said this in my exit interview — whether it’s here or somewhere else, he’s going to get paid, and he’s going to have a very bright future. So I don’t think he has anything to worry about. Everybody knows what he’s capable of. He will get paid here, or he will get paid somewhere else. That’s it. And that’s all. I think the future for him is as bright as it’s ever been.”

The International Basketball Federation (FIBA) held the FIBA Hall of Fame Class of 2025 induction ceremony in Bahrain on Saturday night. Pau Gasol, already inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2023, stole the show with a touching speech, talking about his whole career, including his triumphs with the Spanish national team, and also his relationship with Kobe Bryant. As Gasol said, talking about his NBA teammates: “None was more important than my brother, Kobe. Our connection went far beyond that. He was unique. He challenged me to leave it all on the court every day to make us NBA champions. I’ll never forget how he welcomed me onto the team. We built something special. It wasn’t easy. Trust, accountability, unwavering commitment, and pure determination. I miss him and Gigi terribly”.
