Lebron James was named an All-National Basketball Asssociation team member for a record 16th time on Wednesday.

The L.A. Lakers star previously shared the record at 15 times with Kareen Abdul-Jabbard, Kobe Bryant and Tim Duncan. He was a first-team pick on all 100 ballots, joining the Milwaukee Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo as the only unanimous first-team selections this season. 

 

WNBA Star Maya Moore Married Jonathan Irons

Women's National Basketball Association star Maya Moore revealed Wednesday that she'd married Jonathan Irons, a wrongfully-convicted man she helped free from a Missouri prison after 22 years.

Moore disclosed the news when the two appeared on ABC's ‘Good Morning America’ Wednesday, saying they'd gotten married soon after Irons’ July 1 release. Moore, who won four WNBA titles with the Minnesota Lynx, put her career on hold in 2019 to focus on ministry work, criminal justice system reform and Irons' case.

Irons was sentenced to 50 years in 1988 as an 18-year-old for burglary and assault. A judge ruled that his defense provided enough evidence to prove his wrongful conviction.
