Bucks winning streak ends with loss to Mavericks

The Bucks have little time to reflect on the end of their 18-game winning streak. Milwaukee’s lengthy run was halted Monday night when Seth Curry and Kristaps Porzingis each scored 26 points to help the visiting Dallas Mavericks pull out a 120-116 win without guard Luka Doncic. Milwaukee, which dropped to 24-4 with its first defeat since a 103-100 setback Nov. 8 at Utah, next hosts the Lakers (24-3) on Thursday in a matchup of conference leaders. “It’s going to be a test for us,” said Giannis Antetokounmpo, who led the Bucks with 48 points and 14 rebounds. “The Lakers […]

Rangers acquire Cy Young winner Corey Kluber from Indians

Corey Kluber led by example and excellence in Cleveland. The Texas Rangers are hoping he can do the same for them. The Indians traded the two-time Cy Young Award winner – and their unquestioned ace – over the past six seasons to the Rangers on Sunday, a blockbuster deal that could dramatically change both teams. In exchange for the 33-year-old Kluber, Cleveland received outfielder Delino DeShields and pitching prospect Emmanuel Clase, a hard-throwing 21-year-old with huge potential. The stoic and steady Kluber has been one of baseball’s most dominant pitchers since 2014, when he went 18-9 and got his first Cy Young. He got […]

Anthony Joshua with dual mandatory order from IBF, WBO

Heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua faces a decision of keeping one of two titles after being told TWO sanctioning bodies want immediate defenses. The International Boxing Federation (IBF) has already stipulated number one contender Kubrat Pulev is next before Joshua went through with his redemption rematch with Andy Ruiz Jr. Just days after his triumph, Joshua has now been ordered to battle Oleksandr Usyk as the World Boxing Organization (WBO) mandatory challenger. Joshua will have six months to complete the WBO’s wishes. This means one of those requests is impossible to follow through, and unless an exemption is granted, Joshua will […]

LA Clippers Patrick Beverley exits with concussion against Toronto Raptors

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma missed Wednesday night’s 96-87 victory versus the Orlando Magic because of a sprained left ankle. The three-year veteran injured his ankle nearly two weeks ago versus the Washington Wizards but had continued to play on it through soreness and discomfort, the team said. The Lakers’ medical staff stepped in to hold him out against the Magic as the Lakers begin a five-game road trip, hoping the ankle can heal fully before Kuzma plays more games. His status is considered day-to-day. It’s been a difficult season thus far for Kuzma, dubbed the third member of the Lakers’ big three alongside LeBron James and Anthony Davis, […]

Celtics´Gordon Hayward ´feels good´, scores 14 in return

Celtics forward Gordon Hayward started Monday night versus the Cleveland Cavaliers and scored 14 points, returning to the Boston lineup ahead of schedule in his return from a broken hand. Hayward received a loud ovation when he was introduced and got his first basket on a fast-break layup nearly halfway into the opening quarter. He also grabbed his first rebound and had his initial assist on Jayson Tatum’s 3-pointer from the left wing in the first 4 1/2 minutes of action. Hayward ended with five rebounds and four assists in 26 minutes as Boston defeated the struggling Cavaliers 110-88. Celtics coach Brad Stevens said during his […]

Royals sign Trevor Rosenthal to minor league deal

The Royals have signed hard-throwing right-hander Trevor Rosenthal to a minor league deal, per Lynn Worthy of the Kansas City Star. The deal will pay the 29-year-old $2MM if he makes the team with an additional $2.25MM in performance bonuses, per Worthy. Additionally, Rosenthal will be a non-roster invite to MLB spring training. Rosenthal famously endured one of the more disappointing 2019 seasons league-wide after signing for $8MM guaranteed with the eventual World Champion Washington Nationals. That the Nats had to come from so far behind in the standings was at least partially attributable to the complete backfiring of their offseason bullpen makeover, which […]
