Ex-NBA star Steve Francis has been released from jail after his Saturday drunk driving arrest -- but was ordered by the judge to install a breathalyzer system into his car.

As we previously reported, cops say Francis reeked of booze and vowed revenge on officers during his arrest ... in which a bunch of weed was also allegedly found in the car.

After he bonded out Wednesday morning, he returned to court -- where the judge told him he's not allowed to drink or take drugs unless prescribed by a doctor.

He will also undergo random drug and alcohol testing.

The judge also said he can't leave the state of Texas without permission -- unless he's going to Florida to turn himself in on an unrelated burglary charge (he has 30 days to do that).

Leslie Jones made a fashion statement at the Knicks game Tuesday night -- wearing a shirt with the word "A-hole" written across the front ... while sitting courtside for all of the TV cameras to see!

As far as we know, there were no issues -- no one seemed to be bothered by the shirt ... including the TV crews who ran the risk of airing the uncensored word during the live broadcast.

The 'SNL' star had a great time -- she kicked it with NY Giants star Sterling Shepard and got high fives from a bunch of the players. Plus, the Knicks won!

Hope Jay Cutler hasn't gotten too used to the deep dish pizza in Chicago ... 'cause Tony Gonzalez says his days in Chi town are DONE ... but don't worry, Kristin C., TG says Cutler's NFL days are NOT DONE.

Cutler is out for the year after getting hurt in the Bears' last game ... and a lot of people are saying that with that setback, his time in Halas Hall is over.

Wig? Check.

Sunglasses? Check.

Hot new chick to make out with at Disneyland Paris? Check. Check. Check!

Cristiano Ronaldo hit up one of the Happiest Places on Earth last week -- and strolled around with his rumored new girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez ... in full disguise.

The two were seen kissing, laughing and smiling together and even took in a few rides.

By the way, Rodriguez reportedly works in the fashion industry but she's not a model -- despite her insane looks.

Ronaldo's having one helluva 2016 when it comes to women -- he was reportedly tied to former Miss Spain Desire Cordero Ferrer and before that was seen kissing fitness model Casi Davis.

It's good to be Ronaldo ... even when you're undercover.

Regis Philbin doesn't like when bad things happen to Notre Dame football.

So he REALLY didn't like when we broke the news to him about the NCAA vacating all of ND's wins from the 2012 and 2103 season for academic misconduct.

Reeg didn't know about the punishment when we saw him out in L.A. Tuesday -- but he already feels like it's WAY too harsh.

After the outrage, we asked if he thinks his beloved Fighting Irish can somehow pull out a miracle and beat USC this weekend.

Prosecutors in Spain are gunning to lock up Neymar -- claiming the Brazilian soccer star needs to be punished harshly for his alleged role in a multi-million dollar soccer corruption case.

The story is long and complicated but basically boils down to this -- officials believe Neymar and his family hid money in his $105 MILLION transfer fee deal from Santos to Barcelona in 2013.

For his part, Neymar has denied any wrongdoing -- and according to reports, he'll have the chance to prove it when the case goes to trial.

Buffalo Bills star Marcell Dareus better change his passwords, ASAP -- because he claims someone hacked his Instagram account and WENT OFF about the Bills, weed and his coach!

It was bad.

It all went down early Wednesday morning -- someone posted a hate rant directed at the Bills saying, "F**k the Buffalo Bills, I love weed. I smoke it during the off season. F**k Rex Ryan."

There's more ... but you get the point.

Dareus is adamantly denying having ANYTHING to do with it -- saying he was hacked and "I would never say those things."

Gucci Mane dominated the NBA Kiss Cam Tuesday night at the Atlanta Hawks game -- proposing to his GF with a diamond the size of a fist ... and the crowd went wild!!!

The lucky lady is Keyshia Ka'oir -- who first met Gucci on the set of one of his music videos in 2010.

The couple was sitting courtside when the kiss cam began to roll -- and though Gucci never got down on his knee, Keyshia didn't seem to mind once she saw that rock!!

As for the Hawks, they lost 112-94 to the Pelicans ... but the mascot didn't care -- he was going crazy over the action in the stands!

Congrats!

If Steve Sarkisian wins his $30 MILLION lawsuit against USC, his now ex-wife won't get a dime ... this according to court docs obtained by TMZ Sports.

Sark's divorce from his longtime wife, Stephanie, has been finalized -- ending their 19 year marriage.

There was a ton of money at stake (he reportedly made more than $10 million coaching at Washington and millions more at USC).

Sources connected to the ex-couple tell us there was a private settlement in regards to the bulk of the family fortune.

When it comes to cars ... he gets the Mercedes, she gets the Land Rover. He also has to cut a 1 time check for $293k as an "equalization payment."

They also agreed on no spousal support, no child support and joint custody of their 3 minor kids.

But get this ... when it comes to Steve's $30 mil wrongful termination suit against USC, the two worked out a deal in which he gets 100% of any judgment if he wins.

It's unclear what he had to give up to keep her hands off any potential judgment, but you can bet it was substantial.

Float like a butterfly, sting like a ... tree?

Check out this tree carving New Jersey artist James O'Neal made of Muhammad Ali ... a piece that took roughly 6 months from start to finish.

O'Neal says he was inspired by the outpouring of love for the boxing icon after he passed away -- and felt the walnut tree he recently cut down was the perfect canvas.

It's not the first fighter O'Neal has carved -- he also sculpted a Conor McGregor piece.

So, who's next? O'Neal says he wants to do a female fighter ... but not Ronda Rousey. He's all about Cyborg.

Mark Cuban looks to be cozying up to Donald Trump again, or at least the President-elect's lightning rod of a chief strategist.

The Dallas Mavericks owner and "Shark Tank" star met with Stephen Bannon Tuesday afternoon at the King Cole Bar in NYC's St. Regis. They've done business deals together in the past, but this had to be about politics.

Cuban became a vocal opponent of Trump, but early in the campaign season he supported the idea of the political outsider and biz tycoon running for office.

Trump's taking heat over Bannon's alignment with the "alt-right" movement, but Cuban praised him last month, saying he thought Bannon was smarter than Trump and was playing him like a puppet.

So much for those breakup rumors ... because Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson still look thicker than your average Thanksgiving gravy.

The couple hit up the Greater Friendship Baptist Church in Cleveland to hand out turkey dinners to underprivileged people ... along with Tristan's teammate, J.R. Smith.

"Dancing with the Stars" producers are doing everything they can to avoid an encore performance from protesters ahead of Tuesday night's season finale.

Cops and K9 units lined the check-in area Tuesday afternoon at The Grove in L.A. where they're shooting the finale. We're told security is on high alert due to the anti-Ryan Lochte protesters who stormed the dance floor in September. A criminal court hearing for those 2 guys has been delayed until next month.

Lochte is out of the competition, but he'll still be in the audience tonight. Sources tell us producers are also concerned about new protesters in the current political climate.

Bengals superstar A.J. Green is already up and walking around after suffering what was initially thought to be a season-ending hamstring injury ... so says his teammate Carlos Dunlap.

"A.J. was walking around yesterday, getting treatment," Dunlap says.

Great news for the Bengals (and of course fantasy football owners!).

As for Giovani Bernard -- who also suffered a bad injury on Sunday -- Carlos says he hasn't spoken with the running back yet ... but says he knows he'll bounce back from his ACL tear.

Meantime, Dunlap rallied up some of his other teammates like Brandon LaFell, Karlos Dansby and Michael Johnson to host a Thanksgiving dinner for 120 homeless men at the City Gospel Mission in Cincinnati on Monday ... and he couldn't be more proud!

Good news for the struggling Packers ... ex-Pro Bowl running back Ahman Green says he wants to help Green Bay get back to their winning ways ... as a COACH.

TMZ Sports spoke with Green -- who played 8 seasons in the frozen tundra -- and he tells us he's already reached out to coach Mike McCarthy about joining the staff.

"I would love to come in and help that running back crew, help that team because a lot of this game, people don't realize that it's a lot of mental part of it. You gotta be mentally strong to get through a dip like this."

It's about time people start respecting Michael Jordan for more than just the "Crying Jordan" meme ... so says the President of the United States!!!

MJ was at the White House along with a huge list of stars like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Tom Hanks, Robert De Niro, Bill Gates, Robert Redford, Ellen and more ... when President Obama singled him out for some jokes!

Obviously, Obama praised him for being a hugely successful athlete, businessman and philanthropist -- but zinged him a little bit for his acting career and the whole Internet meme thing.
