‘Confident’ Lakers finally see rise in standings after win

The Lakers are playing their best basketball in months as the NBA schedule enters the final week of the regular season. And after Saturday’s 116-97 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers, they finally have something to show for it. The victory, which was L.A.’s ninth in its past 10 games, moved the Lakers up to No. 8 in the Western Conference standings — the best position they’ve been since Dec. 29th when they were 17-15. Now 45-33 with four games left, L.A. does not sound like a team barely eking its way into the playoff picture. “We’re very confident in our ballclub,” Anthony Davis said after […]

Danielle Collins makes Charleston quarters after two-win day

Miami Open champion Danielle Collins continued an amazing run by winning two matches Thursday, defeating Ons Jabeur and Sloane Stephens to reach the quarterfinals of the rain-delayed Charleston Open. Collins, who has stated this will be her final season on tour, has won 10 consecutive matches and 20 of her past 21 sets. She and defending champion Jabeur played the first match of the day at the clay-court event after rain Wednesday led to several matches being postponed. None of it appeared to bother the 30-year-old Collins, who spent just over three hours on the court in the two matches combined. She topped Jabeur 6-3, […]

Marlins RHP Eury Perez to have Tommy John surgery

Miami Marlins right-hander Eury Perez will undergo Tommy John surgery and miss the 2024 season, the team revealed Thursday. The decision came after Perez visited Dr. Keith Meister for the second time in approximately two weeks. He will have the procedure on his right elbow on Monday. “I know Eury is really frustrated,” Marlins president of baseball operations Peter Bendix said. “He’s really disappointed, but he also understands that this is a minor setback in what’s going to be a really long career.” Perez initially was diagnosed with mild elbow inflammation, with surgery not being recommended at that point. He began playing catch […]

Leverkusen rout Dusseldorf, head to cup final

Bundesliga leaders Bayer Leverkusen overwhelmed second division club Fortuna Dusseldorf 4-0 on Wednesday to reach the DFB Pokal final and stretch their undefeated run to 40 matches across all competitions this season.

Leverkusen will face Kaiserslautern, who ousted third division Saarbrucken 2-0 on Tuesday, in the final on May 25. Looking for the […]

Sei Young Kim takes first-round lead in T-Mobile Match Play

Sei Young Kim took advantage of ideal playing conditions Wednesday, shooting a 6-under 66 in the opening round of the T-Mobile Match Play. Las Vegas-area residents Danielle Kang and Rose Zhang, making the best use of not having to go on the road, were each just a stroke behind.

The top 65 players plus ties after the first two days will advance to the third round […]

Pegula, Collins, Stephens move on in Charleston

Top-seeded Jessica Pegula rallied from a set down and defeat fellow American Amanda Anisimova 3-6, 6-4, 7-6 (3) in a second-round match at the Charleston Open on Tuesday night. Pegula had seven aces in the match and won despite capitalizing on 4-of-15 break points. Anisimova converted on 4-of-8 break points. Pegula stated Anisimova is tough to play because she is a great ball striker, and she can take the racket out of an opponent’s hands. “I just kind of had to buckle down, and I think I started being a little bit more active with my feet and pressuring her a little bit more […]
