Cam Skattebo’s dad perhaps drew some unwanted attention to himself ahead of his son’s rematch against the Philadelphia Eagles.

The rookie running back experienced a coming-of-age against Philly during a ‘Thursday Night Football’ clash two weeks ago and will hope to repeat the feat away from home on Sunday.

With comments from his mom having gone viral since that game, Cam’s dad, Lee Skatteboo, has been trending for the wrong reason heading into the weekend’s action.

Lee took to Twitter/X on Friday to share a photo of himself out at a golf club. He wore a Giants hat while the other man he shared the snap with had a MAGA hat on.

The post garnered lots of criticism from users, with some suggesting he should be smarter despite not being the one wearing the controversial hat.

“Need to be smarter about this stuff, pops. Going to cost your son real money if you aren’t,” someone advised.

“starting to make sense why Cam runs at black people so hard,” another claimed.

“Not a great marketing ploy, was about to load up on skateboo gear until i saw  this,” a fan remarked.

Lee Skattebo would address the backlash a few hours later, insisting he simply wants America to flourish.

“Taking a picture with someone shouldn’t mean I agree or disagree with someone’s politics,” he wrote. “I am neutral to both sides and just want our country to be a safe and flourishing. Have a great afternoon.”

As noted above, Lee Skattebo wasn’t the one wearing the hat. Of course, he has a right to wear whatever he wants, yet he was graceful enough to reply.

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.
