#Mavs guard Kyrie Irving was asked about when he plans to retire:
“You have social media and gambling which is running rampant and it’s not the same NBA that I fell in love with as a kid and I’m very much aware of that. And I don’t say that as a negative thing.”

Ok this part makes zero sense and now I do question why he played after seeing this part of the report. That much sleep deprivation can have a similar effect to being drunk in terms of awareness and neuromuscular control.
There’s nothing inherently dangerous about sleeping while having a superficial clot. Immobility (venous stasis) can cause clots to get worse, but that’s why you are often advised to just sleep with the leg elevated.
I’ve NEVER heard of someone being told to avoid sleep after a superficial blood clot diagnosis and the short term effect of that sleep deprivation is a terrible thing to play football with.
Jalen Hurts reportedly went roughly 36 hours without sleep after doctors diagnosed him with a superficial blood clot in London and advised him not to sleep as a precaution.
He still started against the Jaguars, throwing for 220 yards and a TD.

How committed is Jalen Hurts to football? After initially being diagnosed with a superficial blood clot in London, doctors told him not to sleep as a precaution, so he had been awake for roughly 36 hours when he started against the Jaguars, throwing for 220 yards and a TD.

THEY TOLD Jalen Hurts NOT TO SLEEP 🤯
YET THEY STILL LET HIM PLAY.
Are you kidding me right now????
FIRE THE ENTIRE @Eagles MEDICAL STAFF NOW.
THIS IS BLATANT MALPRACTICE.
Jalen Hurts was told by doctors not to sleep after his initial diagnosis of a superficial blood clot while in London.
Hurts stayed awake for roughly 36 hours before starting against the Jaguars.
(per @TomPelissero)
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Tom Pelissero, the source cited, later clarified after speaking to Jalen Hurts' agent that Hurts was able to sleep after hospital evaluation and felt rested to play.

Trump ran on cutting taxes.
But once tariffs are counted, his policies are raising taxes and costs this year for every income group except the richest 1%, per a new report from the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy.
The reason: tariffs, which are largely passed on to consumers as higher prices, outweigh the tax cuts for most Americans.
Even the right-leaning Tax Foundation calls the tariffs the largest U.S. tax increase as a share of GDP since 1993.

🚨 Jalen Hurts - blood clot in his leg
3 questions I asked myself:
Did the International travel to London cause this blood clot?
Will this require surgery or be placed on blood thinners?
Can/Will Hurts return in 2026?
I discuss the details and different treatment protocols here.
Lots of important specifics ⬇️

"I had a calf injury that ended up being a pulmonary embolism..
The blood clots left my calf & got into my bloodstream..
They went thru my heart & ended up in my lungs..
I've been on blood thinners ever since & I'll be on them for the rest of my life" ~ @KirkHerbstreit
