Pat Beverley Hits Chris Paul With Cowardly Cheap Shot: Watch

Patrick Beverley is one of the toughest players in the NBA but sometimes, he crosses the line. On Wednesday night, he was ejected from the Clippers-Suns game for shoving Chris Paul to the floor in a truly cowardly play, which has basketball fans attacking him online.

The unsportsmanlike play happened as the Clippers were trailing by a wide margin at the start of the fourth quarter. Both teams were heading to their benches after the Clippers called a time-out and when CP3 walked by Patrick Beverley, some words were allegedly exchanged between them. After walking by the point guard, Beverley stopped, turned around, and pushed him hard from behind. Paul was sent barrelling down to the floor as officials rushed to break up the scuffle. 

The play ended with Pat Bev being ejected from the game, which was inevitable. This was as far from a basketball play as it gets. Thankfully, Paul wasn't hurt. The Suns ended up winning the game, 130-103, moving onto the NBA Finals with CP3 celebrating alongside Lil Wayne post-game. 

Some people are calling this one of the ugliest things they've ever seen on a basketball court, calling for Beverley to be suspended at the beginning of next season. Check out how NBA fans have reacted below and let us know what you think in the comments.

Young Thug Flexes His Wealth With Questionable Toilet Pic

Young Thug has been having a huge year. In addition to dropping a chart-topping album with his entire YSL Records roster, the innovative Atlanta rapper has been successfully putting on the artists around him, from his brother Unfook to the Slime Language 2 standout artists YTB Trench and Yung Kayo. As a result, it's safe to say that Thugger has had an extremely productive first half of the year, so it's understandable that he would adopt Future's 2015 mantra, "You do what you want when you poppin'."

However, a recent Instagram post from the So Much Fun rapper reveals that he may be taking that mantra to a completely different level.

For whatever reason, Young Thug felt compelled to take a picture while sitting down on the toilet. While the picture in itself isn't explicit, viewers can visibly see Thug's SPIDER pants and Ralph Lauren underwear around his ankles. His stunning white watch is also on display, but its presence in the picture still doesn't justify Thug's strange flex.

When posting the picture to his Instagram, he only drops a throwup emoji for the caption, but in the picture itself the following words appear: "So what I'm rich..."

So there you have it, the "Ski" artist's questionable toilet picture actually turns out to just be an extremely unorthodox flex. Check it out below.

NBA Fans Had Jokes About Lil Wayne At The Suns Game

The Phoenix Suns pulled off the unthinkable last night, defeating the Los Angeles Clippers in a blowout to move onto the NBA Finals. Chris Paul dominated for much of the game, ending up with forty-one points. They've still got four more games to win, but it's looking like CP3 finally has a chance to get himself a ring.

As the point guard celebrated following the team's victory, he spotted rapper Lil Wayne in the courtside area, calling him over to party on the hardwood. The two go all the way back to the start of Paul's career in New Orleans, Tunechi's hometown. The cameras picked up the moment Wayne and Paul embraced on the court, but fans were convinced that they were witnessing a tearful celebration involving CP3 and his mother.

"My mom thought Chris Paul was hugging his mom & it was Lil Wayne," tweeted one fan with a video of the embrace. "I thought Lil Wayne was Chris Paul Grandma," joked another person.

From the back, all anybody could see was that Chris Paul was hugging somebody with long blonde dreadlocks. Dozens of people assumed that it was one of the baller's family members but nope... just Lil Wayne!

Watch the warm moment above and check out some reactions below.

50 Cent Is Tripping Out About Bill Cosby’s Release From Prison

On Wednesday, the entire world was shocked to learn that Bill Cosby's sexual assault conviction had been unexpectedly overturned. Within hours the disgraced comedian was released from prison, and after serving two years in prison, Cosby was officially a free man. Naturally, the news spread like wildfire, and it has sparked countless reactions, from Boosie Badazz welcoming him home to Phylicia Rashad reiterating her belief that Cosby was innocent all along.

No one seems to be having more of a field day with Cosby's recent release, however, than 50 Cent. Upon hearing the news on Wednesday, the rapper-turned-television executive posted a creepy throwback picture of Jell-O Puddding Pop ad that featured Bill Cosby, along with the caption "My son Bill beat that case, These hoe’s be tripping." Early Thursday morning, Cosby's newfound freedom was obviously still tickling 50 Cent because he returned to Instagram with yet another Cosby-related joke.

The rapper shared a throwback video from Bill Cosby's 2018 that ironically became a meme due to Cosby's goofy antics during such a high stakes case. In the video, Cosby moves comically, ducking side to side as if to evade the press, and now the video has a whole new context considering that Cosby eventually beat the case.

"LOL Bill Cosby back on the loose," 50 Cent jokes in the post's caption before promoting a few of his own properties. "Catch FOR LIFE on IMDb Tv. #bransoncognac #lecheminduroi."

Hip-Hop artists like J.I.D have already been responding to jokes like 50's with distaste, so stay tuned to see if anyone presses the former G-Unit rapper about his nonstop Bill Cosby jokes. In the meantime, check out 50 Cent's hilarious post below.

Brent Faiyaz & Drake May Have Just Released Song Of The Summer: Fans React

We heard rumblings this week that Brent Faiyaz would be releasing a new collaboration with Drake, and the duo of artists officially came through on Wednesday night with the release of their new track "Wasting Time." The Neptunes-produced cut is on all streaming services right now, marking a momentous occasion in Brent Faiyaz's career. The 25-year-old singer has been bubbling for years as one of the strongest forces in modern R&B but this song is set to boost him into a new dimension.

As you likely already know, Drake's stimulus package has proven to be more vital than Biden's. The rapper can make any rapper/singer a platinum-selling performer by blessing them with his co-sign, which he has so generously done again. And the fans are seriously feeling this collaboration, going so far as to claim that "Wasting Time" could be the eventual song of the summer.

Aside from the songs that Spotify detailed earlier this week, there haven't been any clear-cut choices for the 2021 song of the summer. Brent Faiyaz and Drake may have just delivered their entry though, with fans raving over the new track on social media this morning. Both of the artist's names are trending on Twitter with thousands and thousands of music lovers commenting on the high-profile release.

Listen to the song above and let us know what you think of it. Check out what fans have been saying below.

With this in mind, it should be no surprise that he has come through with some PlayStation collaborations on his previous signature shoes. Upon the release of the Nike PG 5, fans were wondering if he would link up with Sony again, especially in light of the release of the PlayStation 5. Well, that's exactly what they did as fans were blessed with the Nike PG 5 "PlayStation 5." This shoe fits the PS5 aesthetic perfectly as we have a mostly white upper that is enhanced by some black and blue highlights, as well as PlayStation branding. Pairs remain fairly inexpensive and eBay has some sizes for as low as $130 USD.

Kota The Friend Faces Accusations Of Physical & Sexual Abuse

A rapper is facing serious accusations after a woman took to social media to share alleged stories of her interactions with him. On Tuesday (June 29) a woman who goes by the name "@teyonie" on Twitter shared a series of messages accusing the New York rapper of being physically, emotionally, mentally, and sexually abusive. She detailed alleged experiences with Kota, real name Avery Jones, calling him a "predator."

"Can we discuss how abusive and manipulative Kota The Friend is?" she tweeted. "This dude literally strangled me, forced himself on me sexually and put me through crazy mental abuse. He portrays himself to be this wholesome n*gga but in reality he’s a whole predator."

Teyonie claimed that she has "physical screenshots [and] emails" to prove her case. "I have an actual audio recording of him while he physically put his hands on me," she wrote. "A police report filed on March 17. I also have audio of him threatening to hire someone to hurt me if I were to retaliate." She also stated that she's known him for over six years and dated him, and while they did have instances where she admitted to having consensual sex with the rapper, she accuses him of sexually assaulting her after telling him "no."

"Stockholm syndrome is real as f*ck y’all. This is a man that has been courting me since I was 16 and he was 21. Before the music career," she said. "Sad part is I really didn’t even want sh*t to get to this point. I hate attention and I damn sure hate the idea of causing harm to other people. But it’s a bigger issue than me. He needs to be accountable for the trauma he puts women through."

It doesn't seem that Kota The Friend has responded to these accusations, at least not publicly. Read through her tweets in full below.
