NBA Player Gerald Green I Gave My G-Ride a $26K Facelift ... And It's SWEEEET

Published | Updated

G-Ride: A particularly stylish vehicle with expensive and flashy modifications.

NBA star Gerald Green knows the definition 'cause he just dropped over $26K to turn his 1967 Chevelle into one of the pimpest G-Rides ever ... and TMZ Sports has pics of the finished product.

We spoke to Ash from 713 Motoring in Houston and he tells us they pulled a Michael Jackson on Green's whip -- that is, making it totally unrecognizable from the original product.

We're told the Suns swingman spared no expense on the ride -- with a new sound system, custom Forgiato rims, plus a brand new 555 big block Pat Musi performance engine ... all part of the package.

Adrian Peterson I'm Fast, Lean & Ready For NFL Return

Published | Updated

Adrian Peterson is erasing all thoughts of retiring from the NFL -- and is ready and able to get back on the field ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Peterson was in federal court Friday ... appealing his suspension in an effort to get reinstated immediately -- and sources close to AP tell us he'd be ready to practice tomorrow, if he got the call.

We're told Adrian has been working out twice a day since the NFL blocked him from playing in November -- and his renowned physique is intact -- still less than 4% body fat, is what we're told. He's even put a gym in his Texas home.

The court hearing in Minneapolis ended without a decision, and both sides will be back in court Monday.

Back in December, Adrian said he was considering quitting football altogether -- but we're told he's game-ready and taking the same approach he took after tearing his ACL in 2011.

The former league MVP flashed his wheels last weekend in a street race with Kevin Hart. Not exactly pro-level comp, but AP did spot him 5 yards.

Chevy Considering Giving Truck to Malcolm Butler ... So Brady Won't Have To

Published | Updated

2:20 PM PT -- Chevy confirms Butler will get his own truck on Tuesday.

Super Bowl hero Malcolm Butler is one step closer to getting a free truck ... because the powers that be at Chevy are actively discussing hooking him up ... so Tom Brady won't have to give up his MVP ride.

TMZ Sports spoke with a rep for Chevrolet who tells us ... they're well aware of Tom's intentions to give his Chevy Colorado to Butler ... but they don't want to see Tom part ways with the vehicle.

"Obviously, it was part of his prize as MVP, but we're aware of Tom Brady's wishes for Malcolm to have the truck," the rep tells us.

So, we asked if Chevy would be giving Butler a ride of his own ... and the rep told us, "We've discussed it. That's all I can really say right now."

Sounds to us like plans are in motion ... but when we pushed, the rep was pretty tight lipped.

Bottom line ... if you're Malcolm Butler, you might wanna start making room in your garage.

Published | Updated

To the victor, GO THE CHEESEBURGERS ... so says Rob Gronkowski who tells TMZ Sports he's been on a celebratory cheeseburger binge ever since he won the big game.

"I've been eating cheeseburgers off the charts," Gronk told us out in NYC earlier today.

Don't worry, the burgerfest is only temporary ... Gronk says he'll be back on his regular diet in just a few days -- but if anyone's EARNED a burger break, it's this guy.

Bonus -- Gronk told us he'll be spending time in L.A. this summer and says he hopes he can continue making waves in Hollywood ... where he's already landed a movie role ("Entourage") and TV cameos ("Whose Line Is It Anyway?").

Our fingers are still crossed for a Gronk & Marshawn Lynch reality show.

Warren Sapp Bud Light Pulls Commercials After Prostitution Arrest

Published | Updated

Bud Light's up for whatever ... but clearly, there's a line ... because the beer giant has officially pulled Warren Sapp's commercial after this week's prostitution arrest ... TMZ Sports has learned.

You know the spot ... Warren bursts into the home of a Tampa Bay Bucs superfan and gives the guy a Buccaneers-themed makeover ... complete with a cannon-firing pirate ship in the backyard.

But after Sapp was arrested in Arizona on Monday for allegedly soliciting and assaulting a prostitute in his hotel room ... the spots mysteriously disappeared from the air and were yanked from YouTube.

We reached out to Anheuser-Busch about the situation ... and a rep told us, "Warren Sapp appeared in one of our television commercials last fall, but he is not currently being featured in any of our advertising."

Translation -- the ads have been pulled.

For the record, the commercial was still airing during the NFL playoffs.

It's another blow to Sapp's career -- the NFL Network immediately fired the Hall of Famer from his analyst gig hours after he was taken into custody.

Wladimir Klitschko Childbirth Is Tougher Than Any Fighter 'Hayden Is a Hero'

Published | Updated

Tyson ... Ali ... Rocky -- they've all got NOTHING on Hayden Panettiere ... or any other woman who's ever had to give birth ... so says Hayden's boxing superstar baby daddy Wladimir Klitschko.

Wlad says Hayden's pain tolerance must be through the roof in order for her to have pushed out their giant baby 2 months ago ... saying he now believes women are WAY tougher than any boxer.

"Every woman is a hero."

Hayden might be more of a hero than most ... considering their daughter Kaya was 7 lbs., 14 oz. and damn near 2 feet tall. Hayden's only 5 feet tall.

Just last month, Damon told Donald Trump he hadn't been on speaking terms with BoSox owner John Henry since he left the team (on icy terms) back in 2005.

After Damon's comments aired on "Celebrity Apprentice," Henry extended the olive branch ... telling us he had nothing but respect for the World Series champ and was always welcome at Fenway.

So, when we ran into Damon in NYC, we had to ask if things were progressing ... and good news -- sounds like the reconciliation is going better than expected!

Trump -- bringing people together.

Keyshawn Johnson Pays for $60 Sweatshirt ... With I.O.U. Note

Published | Updated

When you're Keyshawn Johnson ... your word is as good as cash -- so says an AZ woman who claims the ex-NFL star paid for a $60 Super Bowl sweatshirt with an I.O.U. note.

We're told Key was leaving his Scottsdale hotel Friday night -- when a rainstorm broke out and Key realized he didn't pack the proper attire.

So, he went up to a lady (Sarah) selling SBXLIX swag and tried to buy a sweatshirt. Problem is, he didn't have any cash on him at the time.

But Key had a solution -- he wrote an I.O.U. note for the gear ... and signed it with his name, the debt and his old jersey number, #19.

Now, we've learned ... Key has been in contact with Sarah -- and has told her he intends to pay back every single cent.

"We finally got in touch and he's going to just wire the money to my account," Sarah tells us ... "I'm happy! I knew he'd be good for it."

Richard Sherman GF Gives Birth Russell Wilson Offers to Babysit

Published | Updated

Finally, some good news for Richard Sherman -- his girlfriend just gave birth to a bouncing baby boy ... and Russell Wilson has already offered to watch the kid.

Sherman's GF Ashley Moss was on baby-watch during the Super Bowl -- and there was a (slight) chance the kid could have arrived during the big game.

But the baby waited it out ... until this morning ... and Richard made the announcement just a few hours ago:

"My son sure does know how to make an entrance! 2/5/15 ... Is it a coincidence or is he just that clever?! Either way I'm ecstatic."

The 2/5 thing is a reference to Sherman's jersey ... #25.

A short time later, Russell tweeted at Sherm ... "so happy for you bud!!! You are going to be an amazing dad! Love you bro! Let me [know] if u need me to babysit!"

If Russell's unavailable, he could always hand the kid off to Marshawn Lynch ... for a change.
