"The Heat do have interest," he said recently on Sirius XM NBA. "I would like to see him in Miami. I would like to see him in Miami because of the structure.

I think it would be good for Ja Morant not just as a player, but as a man to go into there. The Miami culture is different. It really is."

Martinelli is now being criticised by journalists on X for his shocking behaviour towards Bradley, whose injury proved to look pretty serious.

He asked me about Moi's red card. It's a red card, but why was Bentancur's against Reece not a red card when we were at Spurs away? As a manager, we struggle to understand why they judge in different way. Moi's is red card, yes. Bentancur's is a red card, yes. Why they don't give him a red card? We struggle to understand.
Santiago Gimenez announced his own injury, and there have been several questions asked as a result of the AC Milan striker's post. When Ardon Jashari posted about his injury on Instagram, he was confirming reports and a press release from the club. However, when Gimenez took to Instagram this week, it was not close to being the same. Instead, it was more of a personal statement released by him and from him that he was going to be out for a period.
Scunthorpe United player Jonathan Gjoshe "sustained non-life-threatening injuries" when he was slashed across the bicep, the club told the BBC. Anthony Williams, 32, of no fixed abode, has been charged over the incident.

He praised both Scunthorpe Utd fans and the wider football community for supporting the appeal.
The New York Mets announced Wednesday that star shortstop Francisco Lindor underwent an elbow debridement procedure on his right arm, but is expected to be ready for full baseball activities come spring training. Debridement surgery removes painful or damaged areas of a tendon, and it was deemed a minor procedure to clean up Lindor's nagging elbow. Lindor had surgery to remove bone spurs from that same elbow in 2023, but it has done little to keep him off the field.

We showed a gritty and determined nature to us today, and I think that was important. You have to do that here at Millwall because they're a good side and it's a really difficult place to come -- I've managed here many times and I've played here, and you've got to be stand up and be counted. Every single player, everybody who's on the coach, has got to do their bit to make sure you give yourself the best chance of getting a result.
