Rumors

NBA and NFL broadcaster Taylor Rooks stunned the internet when it was revealed that she has tied the knot with a mystery man named 'Shane'. Images of Rooks looking glamorous in white and smiling in the arms of her new husband were taken by photographer Anni Graham. The veteran NBA reporter also posted a gallery of images to Instagram with the caption, 'What a night. This is love' along with a list of people who helped with her look. A number of high profile celebrities and athletes were present at the wedding ceremony held in New York City. NBA stars Kevin Durant, Draymond Green, and Donovan Mitchell were seen in photos, as was NFL running back Saquon Barkley and musicians Jack Harlow, Coco Jones, and Ella Mai.

Austin Rivers: "I don't take anything I said back, so I don't give a. I don't really care, by the way, Patrick Mahomes said yesterday courtside that guy could definitely play in the NFL. I got Brandon Marshall, Saquon Barkley, all these guys call my phone like yo, you know you're right, right? Okay, so listen, if the one guy from Green Bay, who I never heard of, wants to say his little piece or talk, then so be it, man. I don't really give a damn. Is it 30 players? I don't know, it could be 10, could be 12, by the way, I'm only talking two positions, tight end, wide receiver."

Now, in a recent Instagram post, Durant was less reserved in his criticism of Barkley. BasketballNews.com's Etan Thomas posted about Barkley's recent comment that NBA players "deserve some preferential treatment" when it comes to the COVID-19 vaccine because of how much they pay in taxes. "Yea, that'll go over well Barkley smh," Thomas wrote in the caption. In the comments, Durant responded: "I don’t know why they still ask for this idiot's opinion."

We're pretty certain, however, there will be no outcry for Barkley to be removed from the College Basketball Hall of Fame, even while some are contending Reggie Bush shouldn't be allowed into the football equivalent. "I got money from agents when I was in college," said Barkley. "Most of the players I know borrow money from agents."
