LaMelo Ball's custom Hummer is already undergoing repairs after Wednesday's collision in downtown Charlotte -- with the owner of the motorsports company telling TMZ Sports the truck is fixable, but it will take some time!

We spoke to Adam Wolfe of Dreamworks Motorsports, the company behind the custom work on Melo's 2022 GMC Hummer EV Edition 1, who says they've already started getting it back to tip-top shape.

The Hummer suffered significant front-end damage in the crash, including the loss of one of its 24x12 DW Forged one-off designed wheels.

Wolfe said he spoke with Ball after the crash and was relieved to hear he was okay ... and the damaged truck was sent back to the company's Roxboro, NC location on Thursday -- about three hours from Charlotte.

Huge break for country singer Conner Smith ... prosecutors in Tennessee withdrew the charge against him that stemmed from a fatal car accident where the truck he was driving killed a woman in a crosswalk.

The Davidson County District Attorney's Office tells TMZ they withdrew Conner's misdemeanor citation at the request of the victim's family.

Worrick G Robinson IV, attorney for Conner Smith, tells TMZ ... “This devastating accident was a profound tragedy for the family of Dot Dobbins and the larger Germantown community. Over the past several months, Conner has been grateful for the opportunity to get to know Dot’s family personally and be able to voice his deep and sincere grief. While he is grateful that this legal chapter has concluded, he will continue to steadfastly lift her family up in prayer.”

As we first reported ... Conner got hit with a misdemeanor traffic offense -- failure to yield resulting in a fatality -- back in July 2025 ... a couple weeks after he was involved in a fatal car accident.

The United States Women's hockey team just took down Team Canada to take home the gold medal in the 2026 Winter Olympics ... and there were plenty of stars in the stands to take in the action as the Red, White and Blue came back to win a thriller!

Tons of stars, including Tom Brady and Jason Kelce flocked to the Milano Santagiulia Ice Hockey Arena in Milan to watch the gold medal game, a rematch of the preliminary-round matchup between the neighboring countries, which the U.S. won 5-0.

Jason -- a big supporter of Team USA's Leila Edwards -- along with Kylie Kelce watched on as the Cleveland Heights native helped guide the Stars and Stripes to victory ... with JK rocking the custom jerseys Edwards gifted to them on his wifes podcast.

Mark Messier, Mike Eruzione, Seth Meyers and Billie Jean King were also in the house, in addition to the GOAT.

It was an exciting contest between the two sides. Canada jumped out to a 1-0 lead with 54 seconds left to go in the second period. They would hold that lead until two minutes left in the third period, when Hilary Knight tied it up at one.

The search to locate Nancy Guthrie's kidnapper is being looked at through a new lens ... it's not about tips or what we've seen of the abductor on camera ... it's about finding someone who fits that description -- who has been missing for 3 weeks.

Law enforcement sources connected to the investigation tell TMZ ... they want people -- especially in the Tucson area -- to think about who has gone MIA for the last 3 weeks, and there's now a fair amount of information that could help ID the kidnapper.

The man is somewhere between 5'9" and 5'10" with an average build and facial hair -- a mustache or a goatee/beard. If the ransom letters TMZ received are authentic, he's smart and very tech-savvy. Authorities believe he lives in the Tucson area.

The kidnapper has an Ozark Trail Hiker backpack, a coat we believe is an Athletic Works Fusion Knit jacket, a polyester holster, and a semi-automatic handgun.
