Former NBA star Gilbert Arenas sparked debate by asserting that Devin Booker and Trae Young are more 'natural scorers' than Stephen Curry, highlighting that scoring encompasses more than just shooting ability. Arenas emphasized Booker's all-around scoring skills, contrasting them with Curry's specialized shooting prowess. Meanwhile, SLAM magazine was awarded the Curt Gowdy Transformative Media Award for its cultural impact in basketball over 30 years, while a sexual assault lawsuit against Dwight Howard was dismissed without compensation. Additionally, discussions around the Phoenix Suns reveal concerns about their salary cap situation, potentially leading to a trade involving Booker, who remains a top shooting guard despite playoff setbacks. Giannis Antetokounmpo, although fourth in MVP voting behind Nikola Jokic, excelled in dunks during the last season, showcasing his continued dominance on the court. As the NBA season approaches, expectations are high for players like Booker and Antetokounmpo to lead their teams effectively.
