News about Steven Adams

Steven Adams can afford to live a comfortable lifestyle, making $12.6million to play for the Houston Rockets this season, combined with the $100million-plus he has made in his career. It came as a shock to fans when Adams posted a picture of his bedroom to his Instagram account this week that it was barely not empty. The post was captioned 'new beginnings' with a praying hands emoji and showed a small bedroom that barely fit his bed.

Victor Oladipo, center Steven Adams, and three second-round picks have been negotiated between the Memphis Grizzlies and the Houston Rockets. Memphis will gain more salary flexibility and draft capital for the 2024 season as they try to recruit talent around Ja Morant, Jaren Jackson Jr., and Desmond Bane. Adams is out for the season after undergoing right knee surgery a few months ago.

It's not simple finding an employer that pays $27 million per year, much less one that is willing to overlook a string of physical changes. Nonetheless, Draymond Green was just that with the Golden State Warriors before opting out of a final year of his service in the hopes of a better deal by the Bay, where he has won four titles, or with a new squad. Green's latest work in a competitive environment would make it difficult: He's been violent, punching LeBron James in the groin, and kicking Steven Adams twice. After stomping on Sacramento's Domantas Sabonis, Green was barred from a playoff game and suspended for another. And the transgression was magnified by his preseason assault on Jordan Poole, when he shockingly punched his teammate in the chest during an October practice. Green's dichotomy is unashamed: Despite his actions, his fame as a leader, and winning is irresistible to NBA teams, to the extent that ESPN's Stephen A. Smith maintains that the 33-year-old is still worth $100 million in free agency.

Stephen A. Smith descended on Anthony Davis in the Lakers' loss to an undermanned Memphis in Game 2. Despite Ja Morant's arrival in Tennessee, as well as big man Steven Adams and Brandon Clark, who were all missing for the Grizz, LA struggled from the start of the season. Memphis tied the series 1-1 with a 103-93 victory, Davis's only 13 points, to go with eight rebounds and two assists in 38 minutes.

According to rumors, Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant has started a counseling service in Florida last week, and there is currently no timetable for his return to the court. "There are a lot of internal talks going on inside, and there are certainly things going on at the league level that we're in touch with," Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins said on Friday. Following these two games, Ja's fully engaged in this process and excited for whatever comes next.'

According to a recent review, the team recently held a players-only meeting directed at Ja Morant, the Grizzlies guard. Since posting a video on his Instagram account of Morant flashing a pistol in a strip joint, he was banned for two games and later declared out indefinitely by coach Taylor Jenkins. According to The Athletic's Shams Charania, Steven Adams allegedly led a players-only meeting, encouraging his colleagues to demonstrate 'better discipline on the road.'

After being stranded by security at Lakers-Grizzlies game in Los Angeles on Friday, FS1 host and NFL Hall of Fame star Shannon Sharpe apologized 26 times during an on-air monologue. Sharpe was involved in a verbal brawl with Memphis players at halftime, which resulted from the former tight end yelling Dillon Brooks, a Grizzlies veteran, as players began to march into the locker rooms. Sharpe, 54-year-old Sharpe, who refused to back down, was seen to assault Steven Adams, who was humiliated by security, causing Sharpe to be barred from entering the area. Yes.' I want to apologize for my conduct at the Lakers game on Friday night,' Sharpe began at the end of Monday's opening Skip & Shannon Undisputed segment.

Shannon Sharpe, the FS1 host and former NFL player, had to be restrained by security at Lakers-Grizzlies game in Los Angeles on Friday, after a verbal brawl with Memphis players at halftime. As players made their way to the locker rooms, Sharpe was seen chirping with Grizzlies veteran Dillon Brooks. Memphis center Steven Adams appeared to be offended and confronted the 54-year-old Sharpe, who refused to relinquish his position. In the meantime, Grizzlies workers tried to save the 6-foot-11, 265-pound Adams in vain. Even Ja Morant of the Grizzlies and his father, Tee, were involved in the incident. Sharpe told ESPN's Dave McMenamin before returning to his seat in the third quarter.'They didn't want this smoke,' Sharpe told ESPN's Dave McMenamin. They do all the talking and joking, but I haven't heard anything about jockeying.'

The Memphis Grizzlies have slowly broken off a string of franchise milestones since their debut in 1995-96. The 2003-04 season was their first winning season (50-32) while the first topped 55 games nine years ago. The team also finished second in the Western Conference last year, earning their first division title.

The Grizzlies were so confident in their victory over the Bucks that they began to play with the fans' Mexican wave. Memphis defeated Milwaukee by 142-101 in a landslide 146-101 home win Thursday night. The Grizzlies took the lead into the fourth quarter and pushed the advantage to 50 a minute into the final period, leaving the team energized as the clock ticked down. So confident in fact that its bench joined in with the crowd's antics.

In the closing moments of Wednesday's game, Memphis Grizzlies rookie Jeremy Sochan called San Antonio rookie Jeremy Sochan a "dirty b*****." Despite Sochan's reported distraction tactics on Adams, the high-flying Grizz eventually overthrew a youthful Spurs team in overtime 124-122. Adams has since revealed that the San Antonio teenster pinched his nipple in an attempt to stun the mighty New Zealander.

The Western Conference semifinalist Memphis Grizzlies are the new team to qualify, with a large number of young budding stars and numerous first round picks. Memphis is a possible trade partner with Brooklyn, according to The Athletic.
