Uncle Drew movie trailer: Kyrie Irving and an All-Star cast unite for epic street ball tournament

Uncle Drew New Movie Trailer

Uncle Drew has transformed from a Pepsi-funded viral series starring NBA All-Star Kyrie Irving into a feature-length film.

For those of who who haven't seen the hilarious web series: Uncle Drew is based on Irving, who masquerades as an old-school baller assembling his old team to return to the basketball court. The disguised Irving completely demolishes the competition, and often brings along at least one athlete or celebrity in each episode. And while it might be hard to believe, Uncle Drew has been sharking local streetball games for five years. (If you need some catching up, here are all of the episodes. We'll wait.)

This summer, Uncle Drew is hitting the big time with his own movie. Uncle Drew will also star Irving, Shaquille O’Neal, Chris Webber, Nate Robinson, and Lisa Leslie, just to name a few.

The plot we know so far: Dax (LilRel Howery), an enterprising guy who knows talent when he sees it, calls on Uncle Drew to lead a team in a basketball tournament at Harlem's famous Rucker Park. Drew agrees, on the condition that he can compile his team of (similarly old-school) ballers, which is how we end up getting video of Shaq in a graying handlebar mustache. ("You look like Wolverine's grandfather," Dax says.)

The Lionsgate produced film will be directed by Jay Longino, and is set to hit theaters June 29.

Botched Circumcision Leads to Penis Amputation for Baby Boy

From  cord blood banking  to  baby naming ceremonies , parents of newborns have a bevy of key decisions to make when it comes to medical procedures and religious and/or cultural practices. For instance, as soon as a couple learns they're having a boy, they might find themselves grappling with the  decision to circumcise—or not . It's an individual, personal decision for every family. Thankfully, when parents opt in, most circumcisions go off without a hitch. However, a shocking story out of Egypt highlights one instance in which the routine procedure went terribly awry. A father from Cairo is speaking out after his son's  penis had to be amputated following a botched circumcision . The Jerusalem Post  reported that the father named Ashraf Helmi says he took his child to Cairo to be vaccinated and was convinced by his sister-in-law and a family friend to have his  1-month-old son Mohamed circumcised during the same doctor's visit. According to  Me...

Reduce Acid-Forming Proteins to Protect Kidney Function

Chronic kidney disease is a major public health problem affecting about one in eight Americans, increasing the risks of disease and death even among those with only mild decreases in kidney function. Low-cost, low-risk preventive strategies that anyone can do are needed to address the epidemic of kidney disease. I discuss some of these in my video Protein Source: An Acid Test for Kidney Function . Diet plays a role in kidney function decline. “Specifically, diets higher in animal protein, animal fat, and cholesterol” may be associated with protein leakage into the urine, which is a sign of kidney damage, and, generally, “diets higher in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, but lower in meat and sweets, may be protective” against kidney function decline. In comparison to the diet eaten by our ancient ancestors, not only are we eating more saturated fat, sugar, and salt, we now also eat an acid-producing diet, as opposed to a base-producing, or alkaline, diet. Ancestral human diet...
