Jay King: OK, this is dope. In his first All-Star Game, looks like Jaylen Brown will be wearing T-Mac shoes (tell me if I’m wrong on that) with a message T-Mac sent Jaylen while he was in high school. Jaylen has said he patterned his game after T-Mac so you know this meant a lot to him.

NBA Hall-of-Famer and Auburndale native Tracy McGrady opened his restaurant and sports bar to the public on Wednesday. The new hot spot, called HomeCourt, has been fully constructed and ready to go for months, but the opening was delayed because of risks surrounding COVID-19. “I always wanted to come back home and you know, leave a legacy, something for my community,” McGrady said at a soft opening event Tuesday.
HomeCourt, situated in the Merchants Walk shopping center on Florida Avenue South, offers American sports bar cuisine and plenty of beer, wine and cocktails. The full bar dominates the floor of the restaurant, made out of reclaimed basketball floor, surrounded by orange bar stools and offering tons of TVs to watch your favorite sports from every angle. McGrady said he has been working on HomeCourt for about two years and that the official opening was delayed at several points because of the onset of the pandemic.
In addition to the bar, indoor and outdoor seating, HomeCourt also sports a golf simulator in a back room for kid and adult enjoyment. Next to the room is a wall displaying several signed sneakers and a McGrady jersey, which McGrady said he added to “dress it up.” “I had to put some of that in there, some of that flavor, so they know it’s real,” McGrady said. “it’s not just the name up there. It’s, you know, got to bring some real product, some real stuff for them to feel it.”
ESPN Stats & Info: Nikola Vucevic is the fourth player in Magic history with at least 35 points, 10 rebounds and 2 blocks in a single game, joining Shaquille O’Neal, Dwight Howard and Tracy McGrady. Howard recorded the last such game in March 2012.
Bleacher Report: .@SHAQ says he used to let these players shoot because he loved their game: ◽️ White Chocolate ◽️ Vince Carter ◽️ Tracy McGrady ◽️ Allen Iverson “I could’ve blocked [Iverson’s] shot multiple times, I just didn’t want to” (via @AdamLefkoe)
Just look at those names, [including Kyrie Irving, Luka Doncic, Anthony Davis, Jayson Tatum, Andre Drummond and Kevin Garnett]! Of the other 10, nine made multiple All-Star teams, and Zion Williamson will probably make it 10 at some point. Several are first-ballot Hall of Famers. And unlike Ball, three of them were in their second season (LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and Tracy McGrady).
