Argentine superstar enjoyed family night out Smiled and waved when cameras turned his way Questions being asked of Inter Miami future Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱 WHAT HAPPENED? Supposed couples featuring on the big screen at Coldplay gigs have generated plenty of headlines over recent weeks, but the Messis were happy to smile and wave when the cameras turned in their direction - rather than diving for cover. WATCH THE CLIP THE BIGGER PICTURE Eight-time Ballon d'Or winner Messi has been reunited with his partner after seeing her take in a summer trip to Italy that allowed time to be spent in the company of fellow former Barcelona WAGs. Messi and Antonela enjoyed an evening out with their three sons as they took in the live Coldplay experience at Hard Rock Stadium in Florida - with the Argentine GOAT playing his club football in the Sunshine State for MLS side Inter Miami. WHAT CHRIS MARTIN SAID Coldplay frontman Chris Martin referred to Messi, when serenading him with an impromptu song, as the 'number one sports person of all-time'. Many would agree with that assessment, given all that the World Cup winner has achieved. WHAT NEXT FOR MESSI? Questions continue to be asked of how much longer Messi will be in Miami. An extension option in his contract, which would take him through the 2026 World Cup, is yet to be triggered - leading to reports of interest in the Argentine being shown from elsewhere.

Marcus Morris Taken Into Custody, Markieff Reacts To Arrest

Marcus Morris Taken Into Custody, Markieff Reacts To Arrest originally appeared on Fadeaway World. Former Los Angeles Clippers forward Marcus Morris was reportedly arrested in Florida and is being held without bond on a fraud charge. As reported by TMZ first, the statement read: "Marcus Morris Sr. has been arrested on a fraud charge in Florida ... TMZ has learned. The 13-year NBA veteran was taken into custody Sunday in Broward County, Florida, according to online booking records." The veteran forward was reportedly arrested on an out-of-state warrant for writing a bad check, implying that he bounced a check and is currently being held in custody for it. Morris has had run-ins with the authorities in the past as well. In 2012, the 35-year-old was charged with battery, leading him to enter a diversion program for rehabilitation purposes. In 2015, he was also charged with assault in an alleged brawl, but he was acquitted of these charges. The incident drew a direct response from his twin brother, Markieff. The former Lakers forward reacted to the news of his brother's arrest and tweeted: "The wording is crazy. Damn for that amount of money they'll embarrass you in the airport with your family. They got y'all really thinking bro did some fraud shit. They could have came to the crib for all that. When y'all hear the real story on this shit man. All I can say is Lesson learned. Bro will tell y'all tomorrow. This weird shit gave me a headache. Can't stop nothin!" The response from Markieff appears to present a positive outlook for the future as the matter seems to have been resolved. With implications that Marcus will be released soon to reveal the "real story," more information is expected to come to light. Update: The arrest was due to Morris' outstanding casino debt of over $1200, as per his agent. The Morris twins have been in the limelight as of late. Since Markieff's altercation with Nikola Jokic, the twins recently shared more on their beef with Jokic and his brothers. The back-and-forth has been an exciting sight for the fans.

Morris has played on several teams throughout his career, including the Detroit Pistons, the Boston Celtics, and the Philadelphia 76ers. However, his brief stint with the Knicks and his time with the Clippers can be considered some of his most productive years in the league.
