Fans React to Ja Morant's Appearance at Indiana Fever Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

The New York Liberty earned a convincing 98-84 win over the Indiana Fever on Tuesday night, improving to 16-6 on the season. With Caitlin Clark still out injured, Kelsey Mitchell stepped up for Indiana with a game-high 29 points, but the Liberty controlled the game behind Jonquel Jones’ 18-point effort. Sabrina Ionescu had an unusually quiet scoring night with 13 points, but she made her impact felt by dishing out a game-high nine assists.

Among the stars in attendance at Barclays Center was Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant. The NBA All-Star has been a regular presence at WNBA games in recent years, continuing to show support for the league and its players.

After the final buzzer, Morant and Ionescu shared a moment, swapping their signature sneakers courtside. With both athletes having their own Nike signature lines, the gesture was a show of mutual respect.

Fans on social media were quick to react to the clip shared by the Liberty.

“Ja Morant recognizing the Liberty's W? 🙌 Now that's some sweet cross-league love right there,” one fan wrote.

“Showing some support is kind,” another fan added.

“Ja is a real one,” a fan posted.

“My favorite basketball player likes my favorite WNBA team 😭👍,” another fan remarked.

“Lmao never seen a signature shoe swap! That’s 🔥,” another fan mentioned

“my two GOATS,” another fan said.

The Liberty, winners of last season’s WNBA title, remain in top form with the second half of the season underway. New York, currently the top seed in the Eastern Conference, remains among the top favorites to win the championship this season.

Eagles coach calls out star player for being out of shape: ‘Both he and I have talked about that’

https://ift.tt/5x1sACw PHILADELPHIA — Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter is still not in his best form yet. After getting ejected before the first snap in Week 1 for spitting on Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott , Carter made his season debut in Philadelphia’s Week 2 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium. As one of the best defensive tackles in the NFL, Carter is expected to take over games, but that didn’t happen against the Chiefs. “He had some good rushes, but he needs to round into better shape,” Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said on Tuesday. “Both he and I have talked about that. He readily admits that. I think we’ll even get more (out of him). For everything that has gone on in his world, I thought he played pretty good.” Carter amassed two tackles and three quarterback hits, while playing 80% of the snaps. He has the talent to be more productive. Last year, Carter became an unstoppable force after ...

Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane ready to take on English rivals in Champions League

https://ift.tt/SwpIz0O Bayern Munich star Harry Kane cannot wait to hit the grass at the Allianz Arena to face off with Chelsea FC in the Champions League. “We back ourselves to beat any team at the Allianz Arena. It’s up to you [journalists] and fans to decide who are the favourites. We’re feeling very good right now. If we want to beat Chelsea, we have to perform at our peak. It will be a tough and great game. Chelsea did very well at the Club World Cup and right now in the Premier League,“ said Kane (as captured by @iMiaSanMia ). When asked about the statement made by Uli Hoeneß, Kane respectfully disagreed. “A club like Bayern always expects to win every competition. I wouldn’t say we’re underdogs, even though we’re playing against the best teams in Europe. Now begins a long journey, hopefully until May. I don’t want to look too far ahead. We want to be as high as possible in the league phase table. It all starts tomorrow,” Kane said. Harkening back to last season’s Champions...
