An NBA employee has been suspended over something they posted after Charlie Kirk was k1lled.

Kirk, a conservative activist and influencer, was murd3red while speaking at an event in Utah in early September, drawing widespread reactions as some condemned his k1lling while others seemed to be pleased about it.

The Turning Point USA founder was sh0t in the neck while engaging students in debate at Utah Valley University on September 10, with an alleged sh00ter named Tyler Robinson firing a rifle from atop a building over 100 meters away.

Robinson has since been charged with multiple offenses, including aggravated murd3r, having turned himself in to police at the behest of his family. However, he was said to be uncooperative once in custody.

While Kirk and his family drew much sympathy, some weren’t as compassionate.

NBA Employee Earns 2-Week Suspension With Charlie Kirk Post

According to OutKick, an NBA employee was critical of Kirk to the point where they were handed a two-week suspension.

“The NBA has suspended a project employee for two weeks without pay after determining he violated league policy by posting social media posts celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk,” the outlet’s Amber Harding reported. “The decision comes nine days after OutKick first contacted the league on Oct. 6 and more than 24 hours after the publication of our original report detailing those comments.”

The post was shared via Instagram and referred to Charlie as a “terrible person” and a “s**thole.”

“Did absolutely nothing healthy for the world except spew dangerous rhetoric. The hypocrites being loudest in the room…nothing new,” they wrote. “There is no legacy… he was a terrible person. No sympathy for someone who doesn’t believe in empathy.”

Given that certain people have been fired from notable positions over their Charlie Kirk takes, some may feel that the NBA has been lenient.

Jimmy Kimmel nearly lost his show over a comment, with ABC pulling him off the air but reinstating him a week later.

Meanwhile, United States President Donald Trump, of whom Kirk was a fierce ally, posthumously awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom earlier this week.

Trump called Kirk an “American patriot of the deepest conviction, the finest quality and the highest caliber.”

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
