Cameron Payne gets playful ‘fake name’ arrest jab from Josh Hart after his Knicks deal
NY Post
Josh Hart couldn’t help himself after news broke that Cameron Payne was headed to the Knicks, poking fun at Payne’s arrest last month after he allegedly refused to give Scottsdale police his real name during an investigation.
“Shoutout Terry,” Hart wrote on X after the news broke.
The social media post was a reference to the name he allegedly told officers — Terry Johnson — after police showed up after he had called 911.
Payne agreed on a one-year, $3.1 million deal with the Knicks on Monday.
The alleged incident itself occurred back on June 14, according to a police report obtained by TMZ.
Scottsdale police got a call around 2:44 a.m. after Payne and his girlfriend had gotten into an argument, but when officers showed up, the couple told them they were no longer needed as the verbal argument had subsided.
With the Yankees on an impressive run of mostly correct decisions, there’s some reason to leave them alone and just let the best team in the American League continue to roll. But they did raise serious doubt and leave room for suggestions (and even ridicule) following maybe the most inexplicable decision of this season, or any season.
The Giants have never been 0-2 under Brian Daboll, until now. They were 2-0 and flying high in 2022 and 1-1 after a rousing comeback in Arizona in 2023. So, this represents a low point as far as early-season difficulties for Daboll and the Giants. They had no business beating the Vikings in the opener and no business losing to the Commanders in Week 2. But here they are.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Harrison Butker kept making a lonely walk to midfield after each quarter Sunday to check on the direction of the wind, which tends to swirl inside Arrowhead Stadium. He did it one last time during the 2-minute warning, when his Chiefs were trailing the Bengals by two and trying to give him a winning field-goal attempt.
