Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving described himself as “happy to come back here” after the eight-time All-Star re-signed with Dallas in free agency following an exploration of his limited options elsewhere in the league. Irving and the Mavs agreed to a three-year deal worth up to $126 million in the opening hour of free agency, a contract negotiated by his agent and stepmom, Shetellia Riley Irving. Due to having Irving’s Bird rights after trading for him last season, the Mavs could offer Irving significantly more money than other potential suitors who interested him, such as the Phoenix Suns, who were limited to veteran’s minimum deals […]

Boone knows his future with Yankees is ‘out of my hands’

Despite a contract that runs through 2024, with a club option for 2025, New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone stated Monday that he does not know if he will be invited back for next season. The Yankees are a disappointing 79-77 after Monday’s 6-4 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks, and they were eliminated from playoff contention Sunday. The .506 winning percentage is not only the worst of Boone’s six-year tenure, it is the club’s worst since a .469 mark in 1992. “No, I don’t worry about it,” Boone told reporters Monday when asked about his job security. “It’s out of my hands. I’m completely comfortable […]
