Kevin Garnett and his girlfriend were involved in a heated argument late last month, and cops were called to the scene ... but both sides are now saying things never got out of hand.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Sports ... Garnett's partner, Teare Candelier, dialed 911 just before 2 AM on April 27 to report she and Garnett had been involved in a domestic dispute at their Los Angeles-area residence.

We're told when officers arrived, Garnett had left ... but they nonetheless took a report. They noted Candelier did refuse medical aid after they asked if she needed it.

Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz's absence from David Beckham's 50th birthday is all due to family tension ... 'cause we've learned they tried to meet up and celebrate David privately -- but, they were rebuffed.

Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... Brooklyn and Nicola flew to London last week -- for the sole purpose of celebrating David.

The two reached out to the fam ahead of the big weekend, we're told ... asking them to get together privately before the birthday festivities -- however, their request didn't go over well with the other family members.

Aaron Rodgers is wearing a new ring out ... no, he didn't win a Super Bowl this past season -- it's actually a simple band on THAT finger.

The veteran quarterback stepped out at the 2025 Barnstable Brown Gala Friday night before the Kentucky Derby ... and, while on the red carpet, eagle-eyed fans noted he was wearing a dark-colored band on his left ring finger.

It's a pretty simple looking ring ... not at all the glitzy diamond and emerald piece of jewelry Aaron received after leading the Green Bay Packers to their fourth Super Bowl championship during the 2010-2011 season.

Dave Portnoy isn't joking around about an antisemitic sign that appeared in one of his bars last night ... posting a video screaming about how upset he is -- and promising everyone involved is going to be educated.

The Barstool Sports founder took to social media Sunday to address a viral video going around of a waitress at Barstool Sansom Street in Philadelphia holding a sign which reads, in all caps, "F*** THE JEWS."

Dave explains the sign isn't something a staff member came up with ... but one provided when you purchase bottle service -- with a message the buyer crafts.

Fast cars bring out big stars ... and, celebs packed into Miami International Autodrome to see all the action at Miami Grand Prix 2025.

Timothée Chalamet led the bold-faced names ... dressing like a member of a racing team in a comfortable blue and white jersey and shaking hands with a few people in the pit.

Terry Crews, Evander Holyfield and DJ Khaled looked excited too ... rushing to get their pictures taken with a few of the impressive automobiles -- while Michael Douglas stopped to chat with Jon Bon Jovi, drawing camera lenses.

Bill Belichick's girlfriend Jordon Hudson should be thanking her lucky stars -- 'SNL' took a big swipe at the couple, but it did NOT paint her as a controlling bitch ruining a sports icon's legacy.

Instead, just 2 minutes into Saturday's episode, it was the 49-year age gap between Jordon and Bill 'SNL' writers chose to skewer ... with President Trump -- played by James Austin Johnson -- signing an Executive Order on the coupling.

Mikey Day, as Stephen Miller says, "Sir, this order will make it socially acceptable for a man in his 70s to date a 24-year-old.” Trump adds the new Bill Belichick law will "make girlfriends young again."

David Beckham turned 50 in style, throwing a lavish private party over the weekend -- but two notable family members were absent amid ongoing family drama.

The star-studded shindig went down on Saturday night at Michelin-star restaurant Core in London’s upscale Notting Hill.

The soccer legend, who officially hit the milestone on Friday, was joined by an A-list guest list that included wife Victoria Beckham, Tom Cruise who is rumored to have brought his new girlfriend, Ana de Armas, Eva Longoria, Gordon Ramsay and Guy Ritchie.

Patrick and Brittany Mahomes left an event in Miami Friday night in a golf cart ... and at least a couple people were hanging off the sides of it -- a move eerily similar to what John Elway's friend was apparently doing before he fell.

Photogs captured the two stars leaving club Carbone Beach in Miami ahead of the F1 Grand Prix in the area ... sitting in the back of a street legal golf cart.

They're not the only people on it, either ... there's a driver, next to two others in the front -- one of whom doesn't appear to be in an actual seat -- with at least two people holding on to the sides of the back.

It isn't just Dana White's day job that involves people going to sleep ... it's also an occupational hazard in one of his side hustles -- bull riding!

The UFC honcho isn't saddling up on the 2,000 lb. animals (though he once did -- more on that in a minute), but he's very much involved in the sport. White owns his own bull, Playmate, which just competed in a Professional Bull Riders event last week.

"He's a bad boy," Dana told Babcock on the TMZ Sports TV show (airs nightly on FS1).

Hailee Steinfeld's clearly having an impact in her role as Queen of Buffalo -- Christian Benford tells TMZ Sports she's made the Bills' best player, Josh Allen, a "happier" man!!

We caught up with Buffalo's star cornerback on Friday -- and with Steinfeld dominating the box offices with her new "Sinners" flick, we had to ask how her two-year-long relationship with Allen has impacted his quarterback.

Benford told us he's noticed a much more jovial signal-caller -- explaining, "You could say he's happier. You know what I'm saying?"

Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter are making waves in football, and they now have an open invite to venture into Hollywood, too ... 'cause "All American" actor Kareem Grimes, who wants the NFL rookies to guest star on his show!!

Grimes -- who portrays Preach in the hit series -- spoke with TMZ Sports after the football drama's seventh season wrapped up this week ... and he actually had three names in mind when we asked which jocks he'd love to see join the fun.

"Shedeur and Travis have been in front of cameras," Grimes said, "They have their own YouTube channel, so I'm pretty sure you put 'em in a space, they'll thrive!"

Logan Paul only needed 6 seconds to prove he was a force to be reckoned with ... but his star power has far surpassed the now-defunct social media app he used to get famous -- with a goofy kid from Ohio turning into a household name and global entertainer.

Paul broke onto the scene via Vine ... gaining millions of followers for creating silly clips as a freshman at Ohio University, before dropping out and taking his talents to Los Angeles.

The self-proclaimed "Maverick" quickly lived up to the nickname ... and his following grew with his every move -- as well as his bank account.

Stars traveled a whole lotta furlongs to be at the Kentucky Derby this weekend ... dressed to impress at the biggest event in horseracing!

Livvy Dunne led the bold-faced names at Churchill Downs in Louisville Saturday ... showing off her tan lines in a chic black and white outfit. Anna Nicole Smith's daughter Dannielynn Birkhead showed up in a soft blue dress and a necklace her mom used to wear, and Carmelo Anthony wore a snazzy hat to the event.

Power couple Alix Earle and Braxton Berrios walked the red carpet together ... Earle proving nothing beats the classic black while Braxton added a splash of color in an eye-catching pink blazer.

4:36 PM PT -- Fareed has clarified Mike's medical issue ... explaining Tirico has a nut allergy and suffered a reaction due to it earlier today. He adds Mike is now doing recovering.

Mike Tirico was forced to step away from NBC's Kentucky Derby broadcast coverage after coming down with a mystery illness.

The veteran sports anchor left viewers of the broadcast shocked and concerned on Saturday afternoon when the anchor appeared to have low energy during the pre-Derby show -- which some fans online pointed out after his removal.

Tirico was on the air earlier in the day and seemed okay while anchoring coverage from Churchill Downs. We should note the weather in Louisville is currently cold and rainy.

The Kentucky Derby usually has tastemakers flexing their fashion muscles ... and, this year it was all plastic cover chic -- 'cause everyone needed ponchos to cover their ensembles.

People streaming into Churchill Downs in Louisville on Saturday had to brace the elements ... throwing on plastic over their nice clothes with a cloudy sky hanging menacingly above them.

Several ladies in their Sunday best seemed to be laughing it up ... even if their fancy dresses had a slightly opaque screen cast over them.

Anna Nicole Smith's daughter honored her late mom in the most stylish way.

Dannielynn Birkhead wore the same gown her late mom wore in 2004 while attending the Barnstable Brown Gala on the eve of the Kentucky Derby on Friday.

The 18-year-old stunned in the black evening gown, which featured crystal straps in the back and a low back.
