Fantasy basketball tips and projections for Sunday
Much like the last time I wrote this outlook (Friday), all 30 teams are in action Sunday, which is the final day of the regular season, so no one in the world should have trouble fielding a full fantasy team for the finale. However, doing it with productive players might be a little iffy, as […]

INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Colts have locked in another key piece of their core. In a continuation of moves made this spring, the Colts have signed star defensive tackle DeForest Buckner to an extension Monday. Sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter that it’s a two-year deal for $46 million and runs through the 2026 season. The […]

This was the Cavaliers’ first title since the summer league went to a tournament format in 2013. Mobley was voted game MVP, more than making up for not being selected to the all-tournament team. “I try to not worry about stuff I can’t control,” Mobley said. “Do I agree with it? No, but it is […]

Mobley scored 23 points, including the winning shot in overtime, giving the Cavaliers a 102-99 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday to advance to the NBA 2K24 Summer League championship game.

Which brings us to the debate for No. 1 this week. We had already moved Houston past North Carolina, so the Tar Heels’ losses at the Phil Knight Invitational weren’t much of a factor in the discussion. But the incredibly impressive play from the likes of Arizona, Purdue and UConn (and Virginia last week) means […]

All the complaints about a quiet first week of the 2022-23 men’s college basketball season quickly disappeared over the past seven days, with blockbuster games seemingly every night, including the Champions Classic, Gonzaga at Texas and the Continental Tire Classic. And can you remember a Sunday quadruple-header featuring games like Virginia vs. Illinois, Baylor vs. […]

The lawsuit, a copy of which was obtained by KTLA TV in Los Angeles, names the NFL, the Rams, the Chargers, SoFi Stadium, ESPN and several others, including Kroenke Sports & Entertainment, which owns the Rams and the stadium. Patrick suffered the injury during overtime of the Chargers’ 19-16 Monday Night Football win. Patrick pushed […]
Continue reading2022-23 Big-12 preview: How about a national title three-peat?
Then again, the Big 12 season has already opened in surprising fashion with the news that Kansas head coach Bill Self is suspended for the first four games. The penalty was imposed by the university amid continuing fallout from the FBI’s 2017 investigation into college basketball. Before and after Self’s return, the Jayhawks will rely […]

It’s great to have an All-American in Armando Bacot returning up front. Having Caleb Love, Leaky Black and R.J. Davis provides continuity and experience. The Tar Heels also bring in 6-9 recruit Jalen Washington and point guard Seth Trimble, providing lots of depth. Hubert Davis has a reason to smile and the Heels may add […]

Between the one-time transfer waiver and the extra year of eligibility due to the pandemic-impacted 2020-21 season, keeping track of the comings and goings has become borderline impossible. As one coach said to me recently, it feels like every player in the country can find a year of eligibility if they really try. But keeping […]
