Frankie Muniz has McDreamy in his corner ahead of his full-time gig with the NASCAR Truck Series ... 'cause Patrick Dempsey tells TMZ Sports he hopes his fellow actor/racer crushes it!!

The 38-year-old former "Malcolm in the Middle" star -- who got into motorsports after his time in front of the camera -- was announced as the driver of the No. 33 Ford for Reaume Brothers Racing last week ... and, will have a full-time seat for 2025.

Dempsey couldn't be more stoked for Muniz ... telling TMZ Sports he's been closely following the guy's career on the track -- and, he's got what it takes to make some noise.

Bobby Portis Jr. says he loves Milwaukee, but he's not feeling it back from the city ... 'cause a couple burglars broke into his home during a game -- and, he's got it all on video.

The Milwaukee Bucks star took to his X account Sunday ... sharing a video saying he loves the Cream City -- noting it's the first time in his 10-year journeyman career he's really felt at home somewhere.

Portis Jr. highlights his charitable work in the clip ... saying he's helped out with food drives, spoken to young people in the community and more -- saying Milwaukee's his home, so why wouldn't he want to make it a better place.

A college football game turned into a wild brawl in the stands with police officers beating the hell out of a couple of spectators, and it was partly caught on video.

The fight unfolded Saturday at the Florida Gators-Georgia Bulldogs matchup at EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville after some football fans got into it and police responded to quell the disturbance.

Check out the footage ... two cops are going to town on two spectators, pulverizing them with their fists. A woman is seen freaking out, screaming at one officer, "Why are you punching him?"

Drake made his feelings toward DeMar DeRozan crystal clear on Saturday ... targeting the former Toronto Raptor in an apparent retaliation for appearing in Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" music video.

DeRozan's Sacramento Kings were in Toronto to play against the Raptors ... and, despite suiting up for Drake's beloved team from 2009 to 2018, the 6ix God gave him far from a warm welcome.

The night began on a high note with the Raptors' jersey retirement ceremony for Vince Carter ... but when Drake was asked on the TSN broadcast if DeRozan should have his jersey in the rafters, too, he threw some serious shade.

Jaxson Hayes is under the NBA's microscope once again -- the league just reopened its investigation into the Lakers player's 2021 arrest -- this after TMZ Sports released new video of a dispute with his then-girlfriend.

The footage shows the 7'0" center in a heated exchange with Sofia Jamora at her L.A. area home ... where the then-New Orleans Pelican verbally abused and put his hands on the model -- and, at one point, spit in her direction.

During the altercation, Jamora is heard saying, "I'm not going to let you hit me anymore. What the f*** do I look like, a punching bag?"

Travis Kelce seemed to be having a grand ol' time at Taylor Swift's Indiana show Saturday night -- amid the controversy involving his brother Jason using a homophobic slur.

Travis and his buddy, Ross Travis, popped up at Taylor's "Eras" tour concert at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, where they shared the VIP section with a group that included Taylor's mom, Andrea, and *NSYNC's Joey Fatone.

Check out the video ... Travis is having a blast with the others listening to Taylor crank out song after song from the stage. At one point, Travis is seen smiling and hugging a woman before heading over to chat with Andrea.

2:40 PM PT -- TMZ has just obtained exclusive video ... showing Jason clearly saying "Who is the f***** now?" 3 times to the person who first hurled the slur at him -- this after Jason got shoved to the ground by the dude.

12:56 PM PT -- More video has emerged from the incident involving Jason Kelce ... with the new angle showing the person whose phone Kelce smashed demanding it back.

A scuffle ensues, broken up by people standing near Kelce ... before he appears to yell back at the man "Who is the f***** now?" -- seemingly referencing the comment that was screamed at him earlier.

Rob Gronkowski's girlfriend, Camille Kostek, says despite her and her man's close connection with Tom Brady, she wasn't given a heads up on Gisele Bündchen's new pregnancy ... but she says she's thrilled for model's incoming bundle of joy nonetheless.

TMZ Sports caught up with the S.I. Swimsuit star while she attended The Nights of the Jack world's biggest pumpkin event in Los Angeles earlier this week ... and she spoke with us about the shocking news that Bündchen is going to have a baby with Joaquim Valente.

She told us she found out about it just like everyone else in the public -- through the media -- even though Gronk's known GB and her famous ex for years.

Tyron Woodley just dropped a pretty big compliment on his nemesis, Jake Paul ... telling TMZ Sports the way he sees it, The Problem Child against Mike Tyson is actually "a very even fight."

The former UFC champ -- who battled Paul twice in the boxing ring back in 2021 -- said while recently out in Los Angeles that as of now, he sees Jake and Iron Mike as equals heading into their huge November clash.

Woodley did say, though, if Tyson were in his prime, his feelings would be very different. But with Mike now checking in at 58 years old -- he thinks 27-year-old Jake's got a real chance to come away with the victory.

Jaron Ennis is over Terence Crawford ... at least for right now.

TMZ Sports talked to the IBF welterweight champion ahead of his rematch against 24-2 boxer Karen Chukhadzhian ... and although Ennis, 32-0, has his hands full next Saturday, we asked him about some potentially huge fights on the horizon -- namely Bud.

"Most definitely [I believe I'm a bigger challenge than Canelo Alvarez for Terence]. I feel like I'm the best person for Crawford, and we tried to get the fight multiple times," Jaron said, before explaining why he's moving on.

"I be getting tired of talking about me and him 'cause he say one thing and everybody else say another. I'm not worried about it. He's looking for Canelo."

Los Angeles Lakers player Jaxson Hayes went on a rampage prior to his 2021 arrest -- verbally abusing and putting his hands on his then-girlfriend Sofia Jamora during an intense altercation ... and it was all captured on surveillance video.

TMZ Sports obtained footage and images from a source close to Jamora ... which are tied to her ongoing lawsuit against Hayes.

The July 2021 dispute -- which was sparked after Jamora blamed Hayes' dogs for injuring her much smaller dog -- shows the 7-footer appearing to pull the model from one room and into another around 1:35 AM ... as she pled with him to let her go.

Brandon Moreno has twice been the UFC's flyweight champion -- and he could soon have a chance to win it for a third time -- but, the Mexican MMA star is on the hunt for a goal even bigger than gold ... he wants to be the greatest ever!

"Man, I want to be one of the best," Moreno told TMZ Sports this week ... "I want to be of the history of the flyweight division. I won the title twice in the past, but I feel I have to do a little bit more, you know?"

Of course, G.O.A.T. is a subjective debate with no definitive answer. Still, most agree Demetrious Johnson is the best ever in the division, with Henry Cejudo making a strong case for himself (Triple C beat Mighty Mouse -- not to mention he won an Olympic gold medal and became UFC bantamweight champion, too).

The Dodgers hosted an epic World Series parade Friday ... and some of the players' wives and girlfriends were certainly dressed for the occasion -- getting hooked up with some one-of-a-kind jackets in honor of the team's eighth World Series celebration!!!

Michelle of Custom Bling tells TMZ Sports she got right to work the moment the champs defeated the New York Yankees Wednesday night in the Bronx -- saying she hustled to get the project done in time for the celebration through the streets of DTLA.

The denim jackets -- requested by the wives of Will Smith, Chris Taylor, NLCS MVP Tommy Edman and Walker Buehler -- are decked out with blue and gold Swarovski crystals in the shape of the Commissioner's Trophy.

Rose Namajunas has accomplished nearly everything over the course of her career in MMA ... and while she still has eyes on getting back her championship belt -- she tells TMZ Sports she wouldn't mind stepping out of the Octagon and into the boxing ring one day!

We caught up with the fifth-ranked UFC flyweight ahead of her upcoming bout against third-ranked Erin Blanchfield ... and while she is not sleeping on EB -- who is known for her grappling -- Rose believes she is overall the better fighter.

"I feel I'm superior in all areas of MMA," Rose said. "Especially being able to mix it all up, that's what I do best. I'm really looking forward to the challenge. I know she's a tough opponent, so I'm very prepared."

Fat Joe became the butt of all jokes at the Los Angeles Dodgers championship parade day when Enrique Hernández credited him with helping the New York Yankees LOSE the World Series!!!

Kiké took the podium Friday and had no shame in his game sizing up the effectiveness of Ice Cube's performance in comparison to Joe's Timberland'ed time on the mound 😬

Game 2 featured the former N.W.A. leader even impressing a few Yankees with his performance of "Bow Down" and "It Was A Good Day" -- and Kiké says the Blue Crew had the game in the bag.

Matthew Stafford's wife says she loves Taylor Swift, but initially wasn't too happy with the pop superstar crossing over into her world ... admitting the NFL's coverage of Travis Kelce's romance made her "jealous."

Kelly Stafford weighed in on the topic on her "The Morning After" podcast ... when she made it clear her issue wasn't with Swift at all, but more so how her relationship with the Kansas City Chiefs superstar was attracting a ton of buzz.

"I will say I kind of got tired of the Chiefs’ coverage of it, actually the NFL’s coverage, of this budding relationship last year," Stafford said. "And can she do anything about that? No, she can’t."
