A civil lawsuit that alleged Conor McGregor sexually assaulted a woman in the bathroom at an NBA game in 2023 was dropped in U.S. District Court on Wednesday, after the alleged victim voluntarily filed for dismissal. The alleged victim, who is described in the lawsuit as a 49-year-old business executive, had accused McGregor of sexual battery during a Miami Heat game in June 2023 at Kaseya Center in Miami.
The Heat recently beat the Clippers in Los Angeles earlier this season in a tight game that played out until the final buzzer. However, LA has gone just an abysmal 2-8 over their last 10 games, including a current four-game losing streak. They have been one of the most disappointing teams this season- sitting at 13th place in the competitive Western Conference.
1. Pat Riley instilling #HEATCulture™ Say what you want about Riley's shortcomings the last few years, but without him laying the bedrock as the culture bearer, this franchise would be a nothingburger. 2. Erik Spoelstra He's the best coach in the NBA, and any team would kill to have him in their building. Instead, he's ours. 3. Dwyane Wade You thought I wasn't going to put Wade at No. 3? You're crazy.
Miami Heat big man Bam Adebayo was seen wearing a hat after their 110-96 win over the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday. It wasn't just any hat, however. Adebayo was wearing a "Joy Dealer," hat, with many speculating that Adebayo, uncoincidentally, decided to wear the hat with Jimmy Butler (who did not play Wednesday) back in town, 11 months after his infamous "joy" comments.
Even though it's not too often that two rivals like the Knicks and Heat do business with each other, the former could be a soft landing spot for Yabusele. The Heat needs a big man and will likely attempt to add one after December 15. Who knows if the Heat would look to New York, but he's a player who does become trade-eligible on December 15, and one who does have characteristics of being a culture-type player.
