76ers Want Harrison Barnes, Athletes Invited To RNC
NBA
The free agent sweepstakes (which officially begins Friday) are heating up. It’s been reported the Philadelphia 76ers will push hard to get the Warriors’ Harrison Barnes. The Warriors can match any offer Barnes gets from other teams but the Warriors seem focused on grabbing the big prize, Kevin Durant from OKC. The Warriors also want to keep their Center Festus Ezeli but again that all depends on what happens with Kevin Durant.

It’s been reported the Republican National Convention will be loaded with sports celebrities. According to the presumptive nominee, Donald Trump, Mike Tyson, Mike Ditka, Nascar’s Brian France, and Bobby Knight will be present. Trump also invited quarterbacks Tom Brady and Ben Roethlisberger but it’s unclear if they will be in attendance or if any of the athletes invited will be speaking.
