Panini America announced earlier today that they have inked
the living version of the videogame NBA Jam, Blake Griffin, to an
exclusive multi-year agreement.
Griffin joins Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant and John Wall as
exclusive members of Team Panini. Panini originally signed Griffin
to an exclusive rookie deal for the 2009-10 season when Griffin was
selected as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2009 NBA Draft, but
Griffin’s season ended early due to injury.
“Panini America will forever hold a special place for me
because it’s the company that helped make a dream come true by
producing my first NBA trading cards,” Griffin said. “The
opportunity to join the Panini family and work with a company that
is at the forefront of innovation and has reinvigorated the trading
card category is special.”

The Utah Jazz are nearing the end of a season in which their
Hall of Fame coach abruptly resigned and their star point guard
with whom he clashed was traded away.
Now they're in danger of missing the playoffs for the first
time in five seasons — and a growing list of injuries isn't helping
matters.
Banged-up Utah looks to end a three-game skid Thursday night
when it hosts the New Orleans Hornets, who are clinging to seventh
place in the Western Conference.
Point guard Devin Harris sat out Wednesday's 106-94 loss in
Oklahoma City with a strained right hamstring, and forward Andrei
Kirilenko missed the second half after suffering a bruised nerve in
his left knee. Derrick Favors, who is nursing a sprained left
ankle, was active but didn't play.

Remember former Cleveland Cavaliers guard Dajuan Wagner? The
Cavaliers selected Wagner with the No. 6 pick in the 2002 NBA
Draft. It was the year before the Cavaliers selected LeBron
James.
Former Cavaliers coach John Lucas dreamed of having Wagner and
James in the same backcourt.
That didn't work out exactly because Lucas got fired, and
Wagner's three-year career with the Cavaliers was filled with
injuries.
Matthew Stanmyre of The News-Ledger writes this profile on how
Wagner went from being the high school player of the year, to a guy
with dreams of playing again in the NBA.Wagner, now 28, hasn’t
played competitive basketball for three years, but says he’s in the
process of making one last NBA comeback. He had surgery on his
right knee last year and recently was cleared to resume
playing.

Cam Newton is a pretty, shiny thing. But there is no molecular
test that can examine his insides and predict whether he will pay
off as a first-round NFL draft pick. After all of the cone drills,
straight-line sprints, interviews, and intelligence evaluations he
underwent at the scouting combine, it's still a matter of guesswork
whether he's a future great.
Assessing quarterback talent remains the most fascinatingly
imprecise and potentially costly judgment in the NFL. The various
tests of the combine, from physiological to IQ, are supposed to
lend some exactitude to the inexact. But truthful personnel
executives acknowledge that it's a wishful exercise at best, and no
matter how much information they gather, they still guess
wrong.

president of the Indianapolis Colts,

San Antonio Spurs forward Antonio McDyess thought this could
be the last season of his N.B.A. career.
McDyess, 36, freely admits that he has been
Cheap NFL
Jerseys playing a lot longer than the doctors, trainers
and even he thought possible, because of his knee injuries.
He said he still feels good, and has decided he wants to play
next season for the Spurs. McDyess is still chasing the elusive
N.B.A. championship ring, coming closest with the Pistons in losing
Game 7 of the 2005 N.B.A. Finals to the Spurs.
“My mind is pretty much made up,” McDyess told The San Antonio
Express-News. “I feel like I’ll be able to lace ’em up and go
again.”
It probably helps a lot that the 2010-11 edition of t
Andrew Luck will return to Stanford for his redshirt junior season,
risking millions of dollars by forgoing the opportunity to be the
No. 1 pick in the 2011 N.F.L. draft.
