Frustrated Dwyane Wade skipping son's title game

Like many basketball parents around the world, Dwyane Wade isn't happy about his son's playing time, but the former NBA star had a major platform to express his frustration.
On Tuesday's edition of Inside the NBA on TNT, the Miami Heat legend said he would not attend Saturday's state title game between Sierra Canyon -- which features his son, senior Zaire Wade, and LeBron James' son, freshman Bronny James -- and the winner of Thursday's Sheldon (Sacramento) and Bishop O'Down (Oakland) matchup in California's open division.
"I will not be there," Wade said about attending the state title game before referencing Sierra Canyon coach Andre Chevalier. "My son isn't playing and I don't want to do nothing to the coach. I won't be there. But I'll be rooting for the kids."
Ziaire Williams, a five-star prospect ranked seventh in the 2020 class by ESPN.com, hit the game-winning shot at the buzzer in Sierra Canyon's come-from-behind, 63-61 win over Etiwanda on Tuesday. Zaire Wade did not score in the game, per maxpreps.com.
Zaire Wade, a 6-foot-2 wing, was injured earlier this season. He's averaged 4.3 points per game, according to the games maxpreps.com tracked. It's difficult to find playing time at Sierra Canyon, where Wade's son is surrounded by stars.
Williams and B.J. Boston, a five-star prospect who signed with Kentucky, are the stars of Sierra Canyon's team.
Terran Frank is a four-star prospect who signed with TCU. Sierra Canyon's Amari Bailey is a top-10 prospect in the class of 2022, per ESPN.com. And Bronny James is evolving into a talented player too. Even Bronny James has been overshadowed by the veteran standouts on Sierra Canyon's roster.
Bronny James and Zaire Wade combined to score just two points in a Thanksgiving Hoopfest win in Dallas over Texas state champion Duncanville. Zaire Wade played just four minutes in that game.

Coronavirus: 'The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing'

"The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing," says Andrew O'Dwyer, who is recovering after being infected with the new coronavirus following a skiing trip to Italy in late February. "I've had worse flu, without a doubt - but I wouldn't want to catch it again," he says during his self-isolation at home in south-west London. Despite having type 1 diabetes, Andrew says having the virus "isn't anything to worry about for me personally". He adds that the fever he experienced is "no different to normal flu-type symptoms". "I've not been concerned," he says. The severity of symptoms can vary widely among people. Those who are older and have pre-existing medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease) are more likely to become severely ill and can need hospital treatment. There have been 10 coronavirus-related deaths so far in the UK. Andrew was told the virus wasn't circulating in the resort ...

Babajide made a Stunning Revelation about the Forthcoming Governorship Election in Edo State

Babajide a veteran journalist, while speaking on the popular program “Journalist Hangout” on TVC news Friday August 7, made a stunning revelation about the forthcoming governorship election in Edo state, says all political parties should shown violence because election is not a do or die affair. Babajide while reacting said “ I have to say I have my fears about these forthcoming election, and I hope my fears does not come past. As we can see the shenanigans in Edo state it is now visible that it is no more Oshiomole against Obaseki, it is now PDP against APC which could be devastating in the light of the politics going on now. Obaseki himself divided the APC, because all the lawmakers in Edo state belong to the APC but he divided them by inaugurating some lawmakers, and refusing to inaugurate others. Right now as it stands 17 lawmakers have decided to align with the APC and just 7 lawmakers is with the Governor. For me I think Obaseki should have averted these problem by just issuing a...
