Of course, Altair is a name that all fans of the Assassin’s Creed franchise should know. He led the very first game and played a major role in Desmond’s story through that first major act. In other words, there’s not really a better figure to be immortalized with a Pop.

Whether on or off the ball, strong guard play is often a harbinger of success in the league.

It would be disingenuous to not acknowledge that Curry is an all-time great and Thompson is a generational talent in his own right, but Golden State has laid a blueprint for teams to follow, many of which have paired young guards with hopes of developing the backcourt of the future....

According to a rumour that first surfaced on Sports Illustrated and was reported in the ‘Rumor Roundup’ column of Cageside Seats, Ziggler received a $500,000 hike in pay.
