OTT artist Fletcher G pulls up to Straight Facts to discuss his music, NBA & more:
The Boston Celtics have clinched their spot in the Eastern Conference semifinals after their 116-112 win over the Brooklyn Nets in Game 4 of their best-of-seven series. Boston will now advance on to face the winner of the series between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Chicago Bulls. There will be plenty of questions facing the Nets this offseason and it seems safe to say that they will have to deal with those questions much sooner than anyone had expected.
After James Harden was traded to Philly, the conversation immediately shifted to Harden’s current contract and what his future in Philly might look like. That question was quickly answered, though, as Shams Charania of The Athletic reported in a tweet that Harden will be opting into his $47.3 million player option for next season. The Sixers will have Harden under contract for the remainder of this season and the entire 2022-23 campaign. But after that, things get a bit complicated.
Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant has been named the 2021-22 Kia NBA Most Improved Player. A three-year NBA veteran, Morant becomes the first player to win the Kia NBA Most Improved Player Award with Memphis. The annual award, which was first presented in the 1985-86 season, is designed to honor an up-and-coming player who has made a dramatic improvement from the previous season or seasons. Morant received 221 points (38 first-place votes) from a global panel of 100 sportswriters and broadcasters. San Antonio Spurs guard Dejounte Murray finished in second place with 183 points (20 first-place votes). Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland finished in third place with 178 points (11 first-place votes). Players were awarded five points for each first-place vote, three points for each second-place vote and one point for each third-place vote.
When certain producers team up with certain artists, magic ensues. These combinations of producers and artists have shown that there is a winning formula that can translate into record sales and utter success. Some producers stick with their favorite artist like Noah “40” Shebib does with Drake and some separate then reunite like Jermaine Dupri and Usher; either way, these duos have created classics!
