A Shaquille O'Neal versus Dwight Howard rap battle just isn't in the cards.

The new Washington Wizards center recently made an appearance on Nick Cannon's "Wild 'N Out," and his tenures with the Orlando Magic, Atlanta Hawks, and Houston Rockets were mocked by Charlie Clips and DC Young Fly during the Wildstyle final round.

Shaq took notice of the footage circulating on social media and posted it to his Instagram page. Howard responded… #boston #mma #weightloss #nutrition #workout #p2 #clinton #basketball #basketball #sportsnews #goals #team #goal #livescore #baseball

Everton winger Theo Walcott admits to losing his love of football in his final years at Arsenal.

In discussion with formal Arsenal women's star and current pundit Alex Scott, Walcott said the end of his lengthy Gunners stay sucked the fun out of the game.

The Portland Trail Blazers are basically the Toronto Raptors of the West, except the Raptors had the guts to make a move after being swept. Jimmy Butler's discontent in Minnesota presents the Blazers with the same chance, and they should take advantage.

Despite making the playoffs in five straight seasons, Toronto decided its All-Star backcourt wasn't good enough and flipped DeMar DeRozan into a one-year rental of Kawhi Leonard.… #boston #mma #weightloss #nutrition #workout #p2 #clinton #basketball #basketball #sportsnews #goals #team #goal #livescore #baseball

Arguably the weakest division in basketball, the Southeast has been plagued with mediocrity from top to bottom, as the Miami Heat needed just 44 wins to claim the division crown last season.
