Is the Elon Musk Neuralink-NBA social media post real?

A ridiculous parody tweet has confused some X (Twitter) users about tech mogul Elon Musk and an alleged Neuralink format that involves the NBA.

USA TODAY

Hoops Crave, a satire account, shared a post on Monday that said "Elon Musk says that Neuralink will let users download an NBA player’s jump shot into muscle memory by 2028."

Is that real? It's very much not. This is just a silly joke post; we don't live inThe Jetsons. There is no magic technology that's about to put a chip in your brain and make you get up buckets like Steph Curry. C'mon now.

This is obviously a joke; we get the internet can get a bit confusing sometimes, but this is just purposeful hogwash.

Leaders keep a wary eye on Belarus after Russia’s biggest missile attack of the year on Ukraine

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Belarus' exiled opposition leader visited Kyiv on Monday as the Ukrainian capital cleaned up after Russia’sbiggest missile attack of the year, and world leaders kept a close eye on how much support the Belarusian government is ready to provide forMoscow’s all-out invasionof Ukraine.

APTOPIX Russia Ukraine War

Belarusian opposition leaderSviatlana Tsikhanouskayaarrived by train in Kyiv for her first visit to the city, a day after French President Emmanuel Macron spoke by phone with President Alexander Lukashenko, who has governed Belarus with an iron fist for more than three decades.

The French leader “underscored the risks for Belarus of allowing itself to be dragged into Russia’s war of aggression in Ukraine,” according to a presidential aide in Macron’s office who spoke on condition of anonymity in accordance with the presidential palace’s practices.

Macron also spoke Sunday with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who in recent days has increasingly warned that Belarus could provide a launchpad for Russia to open a new front in northern Ukraine.

With the full-scale invasion more than four years old, the Russian army is locked in a hard and costly slog on the 1,250-kilometer (780-mile)front linethat mostly snakes through eastern and southern Ukraine. With American-made air defense missiles in short supply because of theIran war, Russian missiles are harder for Ukraine to stop.

U.S. effortsto stop the fighting made little progress and have now stalled.

Russia fires hypersonic missile at Ukraine

Sunday’s heavy bombardment included Russia’s powerful hypersonic Oreshnik ballistic missile, which can carry multiple warheads. Russian President Vladimir Putinhas boastedit can plunge to a target at speeds up to Mach 10.

Zelenskyy said Ukrainian intelligence services had received tipoffs from the United States and European countries that Russia was preparing to launch an Oreshnik.

At least 87 people were wounded in Kyiv, including three children, in the barrage, Zelenskyy said Monday. Twenty-one people were hospitalized.

The intense assault damaged buildings across the city, including near government offices, residential buildings, schools and a market, Ukrainian authorities said. Shattered glass still littered sidewalks on Monday.

Countries keep a wary eye on Belarus

Macron’s call with Lukashenko was their first since 2022, shortly after Russia launched the all-out invasion on Feb. 24, 2022, when Belarus' government allowed Moscow to use the country's territory as a platform to send troops into neighboring Ukraine.

A terse readout released by the Belarusian presidential press service said that the call took place “on the French side’s initiative” and that the two leaders discussed “regional issues” and the relations of Belarus with the European Union and France.

Tsikhanouskaya, the Belarusian opposition leader in exile, said Sunday that France is trying to prevent Belarus being dragged into the Russia-Ukraine war.

“The main goal — to warn Lukashenko that dragging Belarus into the war would be unacceptable,” Tsikhanouskaya told The Associated Press.

“Lukashenko’s regime knows well what needs to be done to improve ties with the European Union, but it isn’t happening, instead hybrid attacks, nuclear blackmail and threats to the entire region continue,” she said.

Lukashenko relies on the Kremlin for cheap energy, loans and other support. Russia and Belarus heldjoint nuclear drillslast week.

Zelenskyy has repeatedly warned that Belarus could increase its support for Moscow.

USA TODAY

The 48-year-old Massachusetts native was in Copenhagen, Denmark, over the weekend trying out for Italy’s Men’s National Flag Football Team.

Known for his flamboyant style and deep Italian heritage, Stellato gained widespread attention in New York during DeVito’s 2023 breakout season with the Giants. New York fans embraced the pair’s charismatic, Italian-American flair. In 2024,Stellato notably met Pope Francisand presented him with a custom football featuring the Pope’s coat of arms.

"I’m incredibly grateful and excited for the opportunity to honor my Italian heritage by trying out for the Italian National Team, with the chance to represent Italy later this summer and beyond,”Stellato told the New York Post. “Thank you to my family, friends, and especially my clients for all of the support, encouragement, and inspiration along the way."

Stellato continues to represent Manhertz, DeVito (now with the New England Patriots), and other NFL clients while chasing this international dream.

Craig Robinson shares how Lisa Kudrow spoke up for him on the set of“ Friends”

Craig Robinson says Lisa Kudrow stood up for him while shooting a scene in the tenth season of Friends.

Key Points

  • "Lisa was cool enough to speak up for me, because I had thrown out a line that she heard, but nobody else heard it," Robinson recalled. "She was like, 'We have a pitch!'"

  • Robinson appeared on season 10 episode 14 of Friends with Kudrow, as an office clerk who helps Kudrow's Phoebe change her name to Princess Consuela Banana-Hammock.

Lisa Kudrowreally will be there for you.

Craig Robinsonlearned that lesson in a memorable way while shooting a scene for a tenth season episode ofFriends. Back in 2004, Robinson only had a few credits to his name, from single-episode spots on series likeLAXandThe Bernie Mac Show, to a role on the short-lived FX comedyLucky. Then came an opportunity to play opposite Kudrow, who had become one of TV's biggest stars after 10 years on the beloved sitcom.

"I ended up working with Lisa later. We played a married couple inTable 19, actually. So we got real cool," Robinson tellsEntertainment Weekly. "But back then, it was pretty much one scene, there really wasn't much else. We rehearsed it twice and then they did a pitch, and Lisa was cool enough to speak up for me."

Robinson explained that while shooting his scene with Kudrow on the episode "The One with Princess Consuela," the cast and creative crew began throwing out ideas to fine-tune the actors' back and forth. "I had thrown out a line that she heard, but nobody else heard it. She was like, 'We have a pitch!'"

So Robinson got to say his line, "and she got to react to it. But that was because of her, because I was just in there like, 'I'm a freaking friend! What are you talking about?'"

Robinson appears in a brief scene in the final season's 14th episode. Kudrow's Phoebe Buffay goes to get her name changed following her marriage toPaul Rudd's Mike Hannigan. She gets off on the wrong foot with Robinson's clerk when she loudly observes, "This place is so depressing. If I worked here I'd kill myself."

Unsure which of their last names to put before the other, Phoebe is stunned to learn that she can change her full name to anything she wants (she eventually goes with the sensible choice of Princess Consuela Banana-Hammock). "Oh, this could take a while," she jokes, but Robinson's character curtly replies, "Get out of my line."

"What's crazy about that audition is, I went early, and it was like 14 white guys dressed like limo drivers. I walked in and I was like, 'Okay, I think I'm too early,'" Robinson recalled. But he won the role, good news he still recalls receiving. "That was a sweet moment too, to find that out, when you're out there in Hollywood trying to make it."

Robinson would land his big break the year after, when he began portraying warehouse foreman Darryl Philbin onThe Office. He won two Screen Actors Guild Actor Awards for the part, when the sitcom picked up Best Ensemble at the 2007 and 2008 ceremonies.
