 Serena Williams' husband addresses critics over White House UFC event Alexis Ohanian, husband of tennis star Serena Williams, faced backlash after attending President Trump’s 80th birthday celebration at the White House, which doubled as a UFC event staged by Dana White’s TKO group. The spectacle drew criticism when fighter Josh Hokit used his post-fight interview to make a vile slur about former First Lady Michelle Obama.  Ohanian, who co-founded Reddit and now owns several sports teams, stayed silent for days before finally condemning the remark on social media, insisting he had already left the event when it was made. In his statement, Ohanian explained that he attended at the invitation of UFC’s parent company and emphasized his past decision to resign from Reddit in protest against hate-filled communities.

NBA BANS TWO FANS FOR LIFE AFTER COURT INTRUSION DURING GAME 1 OF NBA FINALS INVOLVING VICTOR WEMBANYAMA. (PHOTO).



NBA bans two fans for life after court intrusion during Game 1 of NBA Finals involving Victor Wembanyama 


 The NBA has issued lifetime bans to two individuals following a court intrusion during Game 1 of the NBA Finals, after one fan ran onto the floor and appeared to take a selfie near San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama.

One of the individuals was arrested shortly after entering the court area during the fourth quarter of the game between the Spurs and New York Knicks. The league also banned a second fan for involvement in the incident, though officials did not specify the nature of that person’s actions.

According to a league statement, the fan who entered the court “will be banned for life from all NBA arenas,” and a second individual “will also receive a lifetime ban for his role in the incident.”

The fan ran onto the court from the sideline opposite the benches and moved into the Spurs’ offensive end before being quickly removed by security personnel. There was no indication of physical contact with Wembanyama or any players.

Wembanyama said he was unsure how to respond in the moment.

“I’ve never been in that situation,” he said. “I didn’t know how to act.”

Play was halted for just over a minute before resuming with a jump ball after the fan was escorted off the court through a baseline tunnel.

Spurs coach Mitch Johnson downplayed the disruption, saying security handled the situation quickly and the game moved on without issue.
