Excited doesn’t even begin to describe how I’m feeling today. Grateful to be part of this cohort along with so many talented individuals. Can’t wait to get started! 🙏🏽

We are thrilled to announce the 20 creators chosen for our fall 2025 training fellowship: newscreatorcorps.org/classes/2025... These creators have demonstrated that they care deeply about serving their audience with factual, impactful information and are actively working to fight misinformation.

Into sports? There's a Surf feed for that! Here are a handful we like, all followable here on @bsky.app. (Here's a quick refresher on how to publish your feeds to Bluesky).

And finally, all hail @yorush.bsky.social and his definitive #NBA feed. bsky.app/profile/yoru...

🦋 #Basketball fans, @yorush.bsky.social has got you. bsky.app/profile/yoru...

"And although our users’ accounts and data are on our server, they can seamlessly interact with any Bluesky user, and vice-versa. Borders in AT Protocol cyberspace are just like borders in the real world — imaginary. When you cross a border in real life, you wouldn't even notice without signs."

At #Fedicon last weekend, I had the opportunity to present my thoughts on the open social web, what we're building at @anew.social, and what it's taught us about building for people, not platforms. Our aim is The Last Network Effect. The path to that is building bridges, not walls. Check it out:

Brett Siegel: "Only updates are that George is out for the start of training camp and may not play in the preseason. Too early to tell there. As for Embiid, there is genuine concern about his knee health. Of course word from Philly gets downplayed, but around the league, word is bad."

Our vision is to make Surf feeds accessible across the open social web — not just on Surf. And the ability to publish to Bluesky is the first step. If you've created a Surf feed and want to make it available on Bluesky, here's a quick how-to:

What are the Nets doing with the rest of their salary cap space? What is the latest in restricted free agency for Jonathan Kuminga, Josh Giddey and Quentin Grimes? @JakeLFischer has the latest on those questions here: tinyurl.com/29xarxaf

The NBA offseason is in full swing so I took a look at the five teams I think improved the most this offseason plus a few honorable mentions via @bleachereport.bsky.social. bleacherreport.com/articles/252...

I'm once again giving quick-hit thoughts on pretty much all FA deals. This will be updated throughout the week. Starting off with the rash off re-signings over the last few days: Kyrie, FVV, Reid, Randle, Davion, Merrill, J-Will, Ajay, Harden, Portis. www.lastnightinbasketball.com/2025-nba-fre...

I need Rob to make this work. Don’t want to lose DFS.

As I forecast in here, it's a decline-and-resign for Philly's Justin Edwards so Sixers can ink him for more years (per Shams). Likely TO on last year lets Sixers decline again in '27 and take him into restricted free agency if they want to go that way. www.nytimes.com/athletic/643...

The amount of nba draft content I’m consuming is not healthy

In the last five years, we've gone from "employees will never have to go into an office" to "employees need to be in the office because creative and innovative work can only be done face-to-face between humans" to "lol we don't need humans"

I feel like that three team trade accomplished everything each team wanted to do. Celtics duck the 2nd Apron Hawks get an infusion of talent Nets get another pick and a talented player on a pretty movable deal.

Celtics are officially under the 2nd apron with the KP trade, which was their goal. Very curious to see what they do from here.

The Brooklyn Nets now have *5* 1st round picks in the NBA Draft tomorrow night BTW Five.

Good morning. The offseason his here. Time to run this back: My top 25 free agents by BORD$ value www.nytimes.com/athletic/641...

ICYMI from yesterday: My analysis of the Kevin Durant trade, including what's next for the Rockets and Suns www.nytimes.com/athletic/644...

Alex Caruso is the straw that stirs the Thunder's drink. Without him, none of 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 works. Caruso understands his role and plays his part to its maximum capacity. Is this replicable for other teams? http://dlvr.it/TLW3Ml

The Oklahoma City Thunder are the NBA Champs, @jadubin5.bsky.social and I are back with another episode of the Double Dribble podcast to discuss game 7, the Thunder, Indiana's unreal season and of course we touched on the Kevin Durant trade. open.spotify.com/episode/4IEs...

Longest week ever

Damn, Thibs. Hate it had to be you.

Eight first-quarter turnovers by the Storm have fueled a much better start for the Aces, who lead 27-17 after one despite five turnovers of their own.

Mitchell Robinson has 5 offensive rebounds already. My man is out there WORKING.

ITS GO TIME!!!! 🧡💙🧡💙 LETS GO KNICKS!!!! #Knicks #KnicksSky #NBASky open.spotify.com/track/0uKTfp...

If normal NBA history is any indicator Indiana wins in a blowout tonight. Time to see if the Knicks can fight fate #NBASky

My conversation with Sarah Ashlee Barker. We talk about her transition to the league, life in the W, life in L.A., and her faith, among other things. More in the Sporting Tribune.

I’ve folded 10 pieces of laundry and I’m already contemplating a nap. I’m truly #washed (no pun intended).

Here's an updated look at this NBA playoff's scoring landscape. It can give some insight into why the Pacers have been so good. #NBA #NBASky #Basketball

Here's an updated looks at NBA playoff performance by quarter. How crazy is it that the Knicks are a net negative and lose 3 out of the 4 quarters on average. #NBA #NBASky #Basketball

First Saturday in forever that we don’t have any social plans or a dance competition for one of the kids. So, of course, my wife and I are planning to spend the day cleaning the house from top to bottom 🙃
