Nuggets' Nikola Jokic's agent sparks rumors with LeBron James ‘big plans' tease

Yahooa day ago
The post Nuggets' Nikola Jokic's agent sparks rumors with LeBron James 'big plans' tease appeared first on ClutchPoints.
Nikola Jokic has till now been a one-team star. This is despite the fact that modern NBA has seen some major teamups, and some of them have involved names like LeBron James and Kevin Durant. Now 40, James is still looking for that elusive fifth ring, and is at a crossroads with the Los Angeles Lakers.
Having taken up his player option for the upcoming season, the Lakers look determined to build around Luka Doncic for the present and the future. Amidst it all, none other than the Serbian Nikola Jokic's agent was seen hanging out with James at a picturesque destination.
On Instagram, the Denver Nuggets' superstar longterm agent Miško Ražnatović posted two photographs alongside LeBron James and Maverick Carter on a boat in Saint Tropez. However, the caption elevated a simple vacation post into something far more sinister.
'The summer of 2025 is the perfect time to make big plans for the fall of 2026! @kingjames @mavcarter,' BeoBasket's Raznatovic wrote.
LeBron James is set to be an unrestricted free agent at the end of the coming season. The Lakers have shown signs of wanting to move on from The King to instead focus on building around Luka Doncic. With James surely in the twilight of his career, another big move, the last of his career, may be on the cards.
Considering the hue and cry surrounding his future, Nikola Jokic's agent seemed well aware of what he was doing with the post's caption. A potential Jokic-LeBron teammate does not only make financial sense considering the Nuggets are expected to have enough cap space in 2026. It will also be a war cry for the rest of the NBA considering two of the greatest players the league has ever seen can potentially team up together.
That in itself may force the Nuggets' hand in the future, considering the Lakers look likely to move on and focus on younger players who match Doncic's timeline.

Boston Celtics jersey history No. 28 - Jim Barnes (1968-70)

The Boston Celtics have had players suiting up in a total of 68 different jersey numbers (and have three others not part of any numerical series) since their founding at the dawn of the Basketball Association of America (BAA -- the league that would become today's NBA), worn by well over 500 players in the course of Celtics history. To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Celtics Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team. With 25 of those jerseys now retired to honor some of the greatest Celtics to wear those jerseys, there is a lot of history to cover. And for today's article, we will continue with the third of 14 people to wear the No. 28, Boston big man alum Jim Barnes. After ending his college career at Texas-El Paso, Barnes was picked up with the first overall selection of the 1964 NBA Draft by the New York Knicks. The Tuckerman, Arkansas native also played for the (then) Baltimore Bullets (now, Washington Wizards), Los Angeles Lakers, and Chicago Bulls before his contract was sold to Boston in 1968. His stay with the team would span parts of two seasons, coming to an end when he was dealt again, this time to Baltimore again in 1970. During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Barnes wore only jersey No. 28 and put up 5.6 points and 4.3 rebounds per game. All stats and data courtesy of Basketball Reference.

🚨 Ter Stegen undergoes successful surgery, return date still unknown

The operation of Marc André Ter Stegen has been confirmed. The FC Barcelona goalkeeper underwent surgery this Tuesday to address his lumbar issues. "The first team player Marc Ter Stegen has successfully undergone surgery again for his lumbar problems by Dr. Amélie Léglise, under the supervision of the Club's Medical Services, at the Sports Clinic Bordeaux Merignac. He is out and his recovery will determine his availability", reads the Barça statement. The club has not provided information regarding his recovery time. This has sparked a debate focusing on the situation of the Barça goalkeeping position. The difficulties in registering Joan García have prompted discussions on how many months Ter Stegen will be sidelined. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.

These Are Our Favorite Wristwatches Under $1,000

Few would have expected the Omega x Swatch Moonswatch to create such a furor both in and out of watch fandom when it was released in 2022, yet in just a few years, it has become one of the most desirable watches today due to its initial scarcity, dual brand recognition, and attractive price. Thankfully, it's much easier to buy a Moonswatch than when it was first released, including online, and the days of needing to pay scalpers for one through eBay are happily over. The Moonswatch takes its name and design from the classic Omega Speedmaster, also known as the Moonwatch, due to it being the first watch on the moon. Unlike the Omega Speedmaster, it's made of bioceramic (which feels a lot like plastic), doesn't have a sapphire crystal, has a quartz movement, is only water resistant to 30 meters, and most definitely hasn't been to the moon. None of this matters, though, as there's so much to like about the Moonswatch, from how it bridges the divide between normal people and watch fans, how it's practically guaranteed to stir up some kind of emotion, and that there's almost certainly a color scheme or design feature that will appeal. Just don't expect it to have the best build quality, or for it to feel anywhere near as expensive as its price suggests. Some also complain about the Velcro strap, but the branding looks great, and it's perfect to throw on your wrist when you're in a hurry. Once it's on, it's so light you barely know it's there. A rubber alternative strap is available if you do hate the Velcro, though. Even if you haven't heard of any other brands and watches on our list, I bet you have heard of the Omega x Swatch Moonswatch, but don't pass it off as just clever marketing. It's a Swatch at heart, and that makes it a fun and affordable gateway into watch ownership. Specs Case and strap: 42 mm, 20-mm band Movement: Quartz (ETA G10.212) Glass: Hesalite Water resistance: 3 ATM Warranty: 2 years Rotate North started out in 2019 with its Atlantic dive watch, but it has expanded its range to include several other models since then, and I love the Tempest aviation watch. Built in Germany and finished in the UK, the Tempest comes in a 40-mm case size with a choice of bright rubber straps, and I love the 12- and 24-hour markers on the dial, the date window, and the 300-meter water resistance rating. Perhaps best of all, Rotate North gives you the choice of movements. You can choose the Tempest with a Seiko NH35A automatic movement, which the company says it chose due to its 'exceptional durability, reliability, and impressive accuracy (-20 to +40 seconds per day) rating.' The movement will turn up more than once on this list for these very reasons. Alternatively, you can choose a Ronda 715LI quartz movement if you want the watch to always be ready to go, and to save a little on the purchase price, too. Specs Case and strap: 40 mm, 20-mm band Movement: Automatic (Seiko NH35A) or Quartz (Ronda 715LI) Glass: Sapphire Water resistance: 30 ATM Warranty: 2 years
