Draymond Green gets 1-game ban; Sabonis questionable for Game 3

The NBA has suspended Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green for one game for stepping on the chest of the Sacramento Kings’ Domantas Sabonis, the league revealed Tuesday night. “The suspension was based in part on Green’s history of unsportsmanlike acts,” the NBA said in a statement. Green will serve his suspension Thursday when the Warriors host the Kings for Game 3 at Chase Center. Sacramento holds a 2-0 lead in the series. The incident between Green and Sabonis occurred with 7:03 left in the fourth quarter of the Kings’ 114-106 Game 2 win Monday. After Sabonis slipped and fell in the paint, he grabbed Green’s […]

Jamal Murray leads way for Nuggets in his return to playoffs

Jamal Murray had to sit and watch from the sideline for the Denver Nuggets’ past two postseason appearances. So when he finally got back on the court for a Denver playoff match Sunday night, emotions were running a little high. “I haven’t felt that much excitement in a minute, probably since the beginning of the season,” Murray said. It was Murray’s first playoff game since Sept. 26, 2020, which came in the NBA bubble, and his first playoff game at home since May 12, 2019 — back when Ball Arena was still called the Pepsi Center. After missing his first five shots […]

Max Muncy hits 2 HRs for 7 RBIs to power Dodgers past Giants

The way his season started in the batter’s box, Max Muncy realized he had to find a rhythm again. He had abandoned the step-back move with his left leg in a remake of his mechanics. But, suddenly, he was thinking too much, chasing pitches and struggling to correctly recognize what pitchers were throwing his way. Anxiety hit hard as the Los Angeles Dodgers slugger started 1-for-16, then 4-for-33 as he studied film and made tweaks — until everything finally felt right again Monday night. And the tried-and-true move with his left leg, he brought that back, too. Muncy hit a grand slam and a […]

Warriors’ Andrew Wiggins expected back this week

Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins is nearing a return to the team and is expected to be back early this week, sources told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski on Monday. Wiggins, who has missed 22 consecutive matches attending to a family matter, is expected to be back in the Bay Area as soon as the next 24 hours, sources told Wojnarowski. It is unclear how much Wiggins will play in the team’s final three regular-season games, but his return would come with enough time to prepare for the play-in tournament and playoffs beginning next week. The Warriors are currently the sixth seed in the […]

Spirit Of Boom Colt Tops Day 1 at Magic Millions

Spirit Of Boom was the in-demand sire on Day 1 of the Magic Millions Gold Coast March Yearling Sale, a session that arguably provided another reality check for the Australian market after a period of sustained growth. The Eureka Stud stallion, the sire of 20 stakes winners, including group 1 winner Jonker, provided the three top-priced lots on Day 1 of the Gold Coast Sale and it was Toowoomba-based trainers Tony and Maddysen Sears who came away with his most expensive. Once again teaming up with agents Paul Moroney and Catheryne Bruggeman, the Sears’ paid AU$140,000 (US$93,737, AU$1=US$0.6695) for a colt (Lot 103) […]

Fernando Tatis Jr. on Tuesday played his first game for the San Diego Padres in nearly 17 months. Tatis went 0-for-2 with a walk and a stolen base and scored a run in a 7-5 victory over the San Francisco Giants. He was the designated hitter in his first game since the 2021 regular-season finale. “I saw that it was 500 or something days since I was out there,” Tatis said. “Since the beginning of spring I thought about this.” Tatis missed all of last season.

Dodgers’ Gavin Lux to miss 2023 season with torn right ACL

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Gavin Lux will miss the 2023 season with a torn ACL in his right knee. Manager Dave Roberts stated Tuesday that Lux is “obviously crushed” and that the injury is “a huge blow” to the Dodgers, who were anticipating that the former top prospect would be their starting shortstop this season. Roberts told reporters that Lux also suffered damage to his LCL and will undergo surgery March 7. Veteran Miguel Rojas is expected to handle the bulk of the playing time at shortstop, according to Roberts, who also mentioned Chris Taylor as a potential candidate at the position.

LeBron James to monitor right foot after injury against Mavs

LeBron James sustained a right foot injury late in the third quarter in Sunday’s 111-108 win versus the Dallas Mavericks but was able to finish out the game and help the Los Angeles Lakers pull off the biggest comeback victory in the NBA this season. “It’s been better,” James stated when asked about his foot afterward. “That’s for sure. But I definitely wasn’t going to go to the locker room and not finish the game out tonight. Just understood the importance of the game, and then with the momentum that we had, I felt like we could still win after being down. “We’ll monitor it the next […]
