Shannon Sharpe looking surprised

Shannon Sharpe just settled with the woman who accused him of r@pe and has since been fired by ESPN, but it doesn’t appear that his troubles are over.

The former NFL tight end is now reportedly being sued for $20 million after claiming a woman’s husband left her because she appeared in a flirty video with Usher.

The woman, Jimalita Tillman, has filed a suit against Sharpe, his ‘Nightcap’ co-host Chad Johnson, and Shay Shay Media, stating that she isn’t getting a divorce and wasn’t even married.

According to court documents obtained by The Sun, Tillman has accused the hosts of knowingly propagating falsehoods about her marital status.

“On April 2, 2025 I participated in a fan engagement moment at a Usher Raymond concert where I interacted with the artist as a selected audience member,” the suit reads.

“Following this event, the defendants made and disseminated false and defamatory statements suggesting that I was married and that my husband was filing for divorce due to my participation in this audience experience, I am not married, nor am I currently going through a divorce.”

The plaintiff added that she “was not married at the time of the fan participation moment during the Usher concert.”

“The defendants’ false narratives were shared widely across their platforms, reaching millions of followers, viral spread and refutation efforts, despite my clear and public reputation of the false narrative,” she continued.

Tillman, the global director for the Harold Washington Cultural Center, said she had to appear on national media shows to rubbish claims of her being married, yet Sharpe and Johnson continued to post defamatory content on their social media pages.

“I made numerous efforts to contact the defendants to request the removal of this false narrative, but these requests were disregarded,” she explained.

She said the false claims caused “significant harm to my character and reputation,” also causing her emotional distress and affecting her personal and professional relationships.

Tillman and her lawyers say they have been in contact with Shay Shay Media’s legal team, who also represent the former ESPN analyst and will have more to report soon.

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 dr@ped 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 rebounds6 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.
