In today's episode, we cover Victor Wembanyama's stellar performance, scoring 37 points in the San Antonio Spurs' victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. This marks the highest-scoring first half in the NBA this season. Justin Verlander returns to the Detroit Tigers on a one-year deal, aiming for his 300th career win. In local news, Los Angeles and Long Beach are ranked among the world's least affordable cities for homebuyers, with limited housing construction and a strong job market driving prices to historic highs. Weather-wise, Venice Beach sees fair conditions with waves up to six feet, while rain is likely this morning with patchy fog lifting by mid-morning. On the tech front, SafeMoon CEO Braden John Karony is sentenced for defrauding investors, while a botched Bitcoin giveaway at Bithumb leads to a $40 billion error. Lastly, Britney Spears sells her music catalog rights, continuing the trend of artists capitalizing on their music portfolios.
