🏀 Devin Booker Makes NBA History with Massive Suns Extension
By Marcus Fields | Kingdom LYFE Sports Columnist

In a bold move that echoes loyalty and leadership, Devin Booker has officially signed a 2-year, $145 million extension with the Phoenix Suns, securing his spot with the franchise through the 2029–30 NBA season.

That deal now makes Booker the highest-paid player by annual extension value in NBA history, averaging $72.5 million per year, just edging out Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s record-setting numbers.

🔥 Booker Is the Blueprint
In a league filled with team hopping and contract drama, Booker has chosen something rare—stability and vision. This deal brings his full commitment to 5 years and $316 million in Phoenix.

The Suns didn’t just sign a superstar—they reaffirmed a foundation. Devin Booker isn’t just a scorer. He’s the heartbeat of the franchise.

🛠️ A Team in Transition — with Booker at the Center
The Suns are entering a new chapter.
🔁 New GM: Brian Gregory
🧠 New Head Coach: Jordan Ott (a move Booker supported)
🔄 Blockbuster trade: Kevin Durant is gone, and in comes Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, and rookie big man Khaman Maluach.

This is a rebuild built on purpose—not just potential.

📊 Booker’s Impact Is Bigger Than Stats
Over 16,000 career points

1,400+ made 3-pointers

Career averages: 24.4 PPG, 5.2 APG, 4.0 RPG

Last season: 25.6 PPG, 7.1 APG, 37.3 MPG

But beyond the numbers—he’s become the face of consistency, maturity, and quiet confidence.

✝️ Faith. Focus. Foundation.
This is Booker’s third extension with the Suns (2018, 2022, and now 2025).
Each time, he didn’t just re-sign—he recommitted.

In a sports world where ego often leads, Devin Booker reminds us of something greater: humility + leadership = legacy.

💬 Final Word
This deal is more than money—it’s a statement of identity.
Devin Booker is rooted, respected, and ready to lead Phoenix into a new era.

For young athletes, this is a Kingdom lesson:

Stay planted where God places you.
Grow through the process.
And when you lead with faith and purpose, God will elevate you.

🏀 “Two Ain’t Enough”: Youth Basketball Needs to Upgrade Its Officiating Standards
By Elijah T. Carter – Kingdom LYFE Sports Columnist

Across the country, AAU tournaments are filling gyms with passionate fans, elite talent, and championship dreams. Young athletes compete at lightning speed, often drawing the attention of scouts, coaches, and media. But while the spotlight shines brighter than ever, there’s one crucial area still stuck in the past:

The referee system.

Despite the intensity, speed, and stakes of modern youth basketball, many AAU organizations continue to use only two referees per game—a setup long abandoned by high schools, colleges, and professional leagues.

And according to one veteran director of a national youth basketball organization, that decision is hurting the game.

“We’ve allowed speed to replace skill and chaos to replace coaching,” the director said.
“If we don’t raise the standard now, we’re going to lose a whole generation of players who look the part—but don’t know how to actually play the game.”

⚠️ The Two-Man Crew: Outdated and Overwhelmed
The two-man referee system was once the norm in lower-level basketball, but that was before the game evolved into what it is today: faster, more physical, and far more complex.

In a typical two-ref setup:

One official trails the play.

The other takes the lead near the basket.

That leaves huge gaps in coverage, especially for off-ball fouls, screens, cuts, and help defense.

At the AAU level—where players move like varsity athletes and the action never stops—two sets of eyes simply can’t keep up.

Missed calls pile up.
Frustration builds.
And the players are the ones who suffer.

🧱 The Three-Man Standard: Built for Today’s Game
Across high school, college, and pro levels, the three-referee crew has become the gold standard. This system divides the court more evenly, giving each official a designated area of responsibility:

Lead under the basket

Trail near half court

Center with a wide-angle view

This structure not only reduces missed calls, but also ensures fairer gameplay, better flow, and clearer communication with coaches and players.

So the question becomes:
If three referees are necessary for high school games, why are youth athletes—some of whom are more athletic than varsity players—being asked to perform under less?

🧠 The Bigger Problem: Development Suffers
Refereeing isn’t just about whistles—it’s about structure. When officials can’t see the whole floor, they can’t enforce proper basketball habits. That means players:

Don’t learn how to defend legally

Don’t get punished for hand-checks or illegal screens

Don’t develop awareness of the game beyond the ball

And if they’re not being corrected, they’re not being prepared.

This issue goes beyond referees. It’s about the culture of youth basketball. When we settle for less on the officiating end, we send the message that standards don’t matter—and that hurts everyone from players to coaches to college recruiters.

📣 The Call to Raise the Standard
The solution is simple: adopt three-man officiating crews across all elite AAU tournaments. Yes, it may cost more. But the cost of keeping things as they are is far greater.

Young athletes deserve:

Proper accountability

Clear structure

And the chance to play the game the way it will be played at the next level

If we want to develop smarter players and stronger teams, we must invest in the systems that shape them—starting with officiating.

🙏 Final Word
Basketball is a game I love. But I’m not blind to the truth: in many places, the system has been watered down. Not because the kids lack talent—but because the adults in charge have lowered the bar.

We can do better.

“Two refs might be cheaper,” the anonymous director said.
“But it’s costing these kids far more.”

It’s time for youth basketball to catch up.
Two ain’t enough anymore.

🏈 Coach Prime Shines at Big 12 Media Days
By Elijah T. Carter | Lead Columnist, Kingdom LYFE Sports

In a moment filled with energy, honesty, and inspiration, Coach Deion “Prime” Sanders reminded the world why he’s more than a coach—he’s a Kingdom-minded leader reshaping the face of college football.

At the 2025 Big 12 Media Days, Coach Prime stood tall—not just for his accomplishments on the field, but for his unwavering faith, transparency, and commitment to raising up young men in purpose, not just performance.

🙌 Health, Healing & Humility
When asked about his health, Sanders redirected the spotlight in classic Coach Prime fashion: confident, calm, and full of faith.

“I’m looking good. I’m living lovely. God has truly blessed me. Not a care in the world. Not a want or desire in the world.”

Rather than focus on medical reports, he chose to focus on grace. That’s Kingdom. His message wasn’t just about feeling better—it was about living in purpose despite adversity. His resilience is a reminder that our strength doesn’t come from ourselves, but from the One who holds our future.

💰 NIL, Fairness & Future Reform
Coach Prime didn’t hold back when asked about the ever-growing influence of NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) in college sports. With a voice of reason and experience, he challenged the system:

“It don’t make sense… teams are giving $25–30 million to a freshman class.”

Calling for a salary cap-style system, Sanders likened it to the NFL where contracts are structured and scaled. His concern? Not just the financial disparities, but how unchecked NIL deals could destroy the integrity of the game.

This wasn’t a complaint—it was a call for clarity. It was leadership. It was the voice of a father-figure in a sport that desperately needs more men of integrity.

🔁 Quarterback Battle: Iron Sharpening Iron
The Buffaloes’ quarterback room is filled with talent and potential. Sanders spoke on the current competition between Kaidon Salter and Julian “JuJu” Lewis with excitement and openness:

“We don’t know who’s going to start… we may play both of them.”

His words didn’t create tension—they created opportunity. Prime understands that greatness is often found in competition. And he’s creating an environment where both players grow, mature, and prepare—not just to start, but to lead.

🏟️ Building a Movement, Not Just a Team
In just three years at Colorado, Sanders has done what few believed possible:

Three consecutive seasons of sold-out tickets

Back-to-back Top 25 recruiting classes

One of the most talked-about brands in college football

As he said with passion:

“You wanna see us win, you wanna see us lose, but you want to see us.”

He’s right. Coach Prime has turned Colorado into must-see football—but more importantly, he’s building a culture of faith, identity, and purpose.

✝️ Final Thoughts: Faith Over Fame
Coach Prime continues to prove that leadership isn't about being the loudest—it's about being the clearest, the boldest, and the most consistent in character.

He brings the same fire to the mic as he does to the locker room, but it’s his unwavering faith in God, his love for his players, and his commitment to doing things the right way that truly set him apart.

This isn’t just a football story. This is a Kingdom blueprint for how to lead in excellence, walk in purpose, and speak truth in a noisy world.

Coach Prime is shining—and he’s just getting started.

NBA Champion Lindsey Hunter Takes the Helm at Sparta High School

Sparta, MI – In a powerful move that blends championship pedigree with mentorship, former NBA guard and two-time NBA Champion Lindsey Hunter has been named the new Head Coach of the boys varsity basketball team at Sparta High School.

Hunter, known for his time with the Detroit Pistons and Los Angeles Lakers, brings a wealth of experience from both the court and the bench. After years of coaching at the college and professional levels, he’s returning to the grassroots — investing in the lives of young athletes in Michigan.

Sparta High School announced the hire on July 2, 2025, marking the beginning of a new chapter for the program, which reached the regional finals last season with a 14–12 record. What made this hire even more meaningful was Hunter’s recent connection to the school community — including mentoring a JV player currently battling cancer and supporting Sparta’s youth basketball camp.

“This isn’t just about wins. It’s about building a culture of integrity, excellence, and growth,” said Hunter in a community Q&A.

Hunter’s transition to the high school game signals a deeper mission — one that aligns with the values of Kingdom LYFE Sports Media: Faith. Leadership. Legacy.

Basketball Analyst | Kingdom LYFE Sports Media

🎯 SPOTLIGHT: COACH ZAY LAMBERT – THE FUTURE OF KINGDOM COACHING

In every program, there’s a coach whose presence commands respect, whose voice reaches deeper than strategy, and whose growth becomes impossible to ignore. For Junior HIBA, that coach is Zay Lambert — and I’ve had the privilege of watching his development firsthand.

Zay is more than a rising voice in youth basketball — he’s becoming a true technician of the game with a mentor’s heart and a leader’s edge.



🧠 Coaching IQ, Culture Builder, Competitor

As an analyst, I look at three things when evaluating young coaches:
1. Basketball IQ
2. Connection with players
3. Consistency in culture

Coach Zay checks every box.
He breaks the game down the right way. He’s clear in his teaching. He holds kids accountable without crushing confidence. And most importantly — his players respect him because they trust him.

Zay’s defensive sets are tight. His attention to footwork and spacing shows he’s been studying. And from the sideline, he coaches every possession with purpose. Not hype — precision.

“As a young coach, I can clearly see his progression and how seriously he takes the craft,” said Tanya Lambert, National Director of Junior HIBA.
“His potential is unlimited, and the future is incredibly bright for Coach Zay.”



🎥 MAD3 RAW: Vision Beyond the Court

And Zay doesn’t stop with basketball. He’s also the founder and creative force behind MAD3 RAW Media, a company that’s helping shape the visual voice of Kingdom culture.

Through photos, films, and design, MAD3 RAW is doing more than creating content — it’s building brands, narratives, and impact. Zay’s eye for creativity is the same as his approach to coaching: real, raw, and intentional.



🌱 From David’s Coaching Tree

It’s no surprise Zay is rising. He comes from the coaching tree of David, the founder of Junior HIBA and the I Am Wired Differently Leadership movement. That foundation shows.

“Zay isn’t just a coach — he’s a builder,” said David. “He’s got the heart, the mind, and the discipline. I trust him to lead, and the kids believe in him.”



🔥 Final Take

Coach Zay Lambert is exactly what this generation needs:
🎯 Grounded in faith
🎯 Focused on fundamentals
🎯 Fearless in leadership

Whether he’s leading a drill or designing a campaign, Zay is helping reshape what Kingdom leadership looks like in sports and media.

And in my view?

He’s just getting started.

🏀 Rising Star: Greyson Dupree Brings Heart, Hustle & Humility to Junior HIBA
✍️ By Elijah T. Carter | Kingdom LYFE Sports Columnist

In every league, there are standout players — and in the 9–10 year-old division of Junior HIBA, one name is quietly making waves: Grayson Dupree.

A passionate hooper with a deep love for the game, Grayson plays with poise, purpose, and pure joy. But what makes him special isn’t just his skill on the court — it’s his spirit off of it.

Grayson enjoys reading, practices Taekwondo, and loves gaming on his Nintendo Switch. Most importantly, he cherishes family time — showing that greatness begins at home.

💬 “Grayson has come a long way in a short period of time. Watching him develop has been pure joy. He plays the game with grace, spirit, and enthusiasm.”
— David , Coach, Jr. HIBA Cartersville

💬 “He represents what we’re building — athletes who lead with character, not just talent. Grayson’s energy lifts the whole team.”
— Tayna Lambert National Director of Junior HIBA & Director, Cartersville GA Division

At Junior HIBA, we believe in building athletes who are Wired Differently and Built Different — and Grayson Dupree is a shining example of that mission in motion.

From his work ethic to his heart for learning, Grayson is already on the path to greatness — and we’re just getting started.

🏈 Shedeur Sanders: Poised. Pressured. Purposed.

✍️ By Elijah T. Carter | Kingdom LYFE Sports Columnist

Despite early draft projections, Shedeur Sanders saw his name called later than expected — but when the Cleveland Browns selected him with the 144th pick in the 5th round, the journey only became more powerful.

He enters a competitive quarterback room that includes Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, Dillon Gabriel, and an injured Deshaun Watson. The odds aren’t in his favor — but faith never needed favorable odds.

After a stellar college career at Colorado, where he threw for over 4,000 yards and 37 touchdowns, Shedeur also claimed the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year title. Now, he’s bringing that same fire, composure, and relentless work ethic to the pros.

While critics may have doubted him, Sanders stands as a symbol — not just of talent, but of resilience, faith, humility, and Kingdom purpose.

He’s not here to prove doubters wrong.
He’s here to show that when God writes the script, the world can’t stop the story.
