Where were all of the following people on Sunday April 30, 2023?
Aaron Rodgers, Sauce Gardner, Spike Lee, Dwyane Wade, Gabrielle Union, Trevor Noah, Jack Harlow, Patrick Ewing, Emma Roberts, Ben Stiller, Michael J. Fox, Zach Cherry, Martha Stewart, Jessica Alba, Chris Rock, Tracy Morgan, Dave Chappelle, Roger Federer, Carmelo Anthony, Fat Joe, CC Sabathia and Jon Stewart.
The answer: at Madison Square Garden, with me, for a Knicks playoff game! But only a few stories actually came out of any of that, mostly they showed up and enjoyed the game. No drama, no one was kicked out or anything, like Charles Oakley once was.
MVP of the Week: Luka Doncic
This is an incredible story and act of kindness from Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic. Why any country allows to continue putting profiting off of gun sales over the lives of its citizens is beyond me, but that's capitalism for you. Get rid of all the guns, forever. Anyways, thank you Luka.
Doncic has deep family ties to the Belgrade, Serbia region and a spokesperson for the Luka Doncic Foundation tells ESPN of his immediate plans to take care of the funerals and counseling -- and a long-term commitment to provide whatever other assistance is needed.

Anyways, if we missed anything send us a tip to [email protected] or on Twitter at @jaredrusso. Last week we covered the first round of the NFL Draft and I ranted about the Jets not taking an offensive tackle, but we got a center in round two so it's not as big of a deal. Be sure to check out this weekly round-up every Friday afternoon!
