Steven Adams shows off NZ in his doco "The Kiwi Way"
After offering the United States a taste of Kiwi in his first two seasons in the NBA, Steven Adams has showcased the entire culture in a new documentary recently released.
The Oklahoma City Thunder sent a film crew to follow Adams to New Zealand in the NBA off-season, to capture the essence of their starting centre in a project called The Kiwi Way: Steven Adams' New Zealand.
The film aired in Oklahoma over the weekend and is available to watch in its entirety on the Thunder website, with Adams showing off his homeland and illustrating the impact he has made on New Zealand basketball.
Bidding war for Manu Tuilagi tops $1M
The Samoan born player is at the centre of a tug of war that is set to see him become English club rugby's richest player at $1.15 million a season.
English coach Stuart Lancaster's hard-line disciplinary attitude in the leadup to the tournament saw Tuilagi dropped from the World Cup squad after he was convicted of assaulting two female police officers and damaging a taxi.
Now the recent hike in the salary cap by $2.13m is set to earn the 24-year-old Samoan a fortune as a bidding war for his services escalates.
Last month Saracens offered Tuilagi a $920,000 deal, yet Tuilagi's club Leicester have raised the stakes beyond the million dollar mark as they look to keep him for next season.
Tuilagi, who is both midfielder and winger, has played 25 tests for England since 2011 and was part of the British & Irish Lions triumph in Australia in 2013.
