When Kawhi Leonard became a Toronto Raptor for the first time in the summer of 2018, he looked shellshocked. "There's just more questions you have to ask me in order for me to tell you about myself," he said, introducing himself to an organization and city he reportedly had no interest in joining.
Leonard had fallen out with his former team, the San Antonio Spurs – one of the most respected franchises in professional sports – due to differences in opinion about an injury that had limited him to just nine games in the 2017-18 season. The Los Angeles native had hoped to end up in southern California, but instead the Raptors risked it all by swapping franchise cornerstone DeMar DeRozan for one year of an injured, malcontent Leonard. It worked: Leonard led the Raptors to their maiden championship on the back of a historic playoff run, averaging 30.5 points, 9.1 rebounds, 3.9 **** ists and 1.7 steals en route. Leonard won his second finals MVP to go alongside the one he had claimed with the Spurs when he helped them to the **** le in 2014.

"The narrative of not wanting to come to this city is gone," the team's president, Masai Ujiri, said at that 2018 press conference, speaking to insecure Raptors fans who had watched American players like Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady, and Chris Bosh leave Toronto since the franchise opened its doors in 1995. "We should move past that. Believe in this city. Believe in yourselves … We are proud of who we are."
But even a historic season wasn't enough to convince Leonard to stay north of the border. After a long and contentious free-agency period managed by his uncle, Dennis Robertson, Leonard spurned the reigning champions in favor of his hometown Los Angeles Clippers. "There wasn't as much anger in 2019 as there was with Vince Carter or some of the other guys who left," says Bruce Arthur, who has covered Leonard since 2018 for the Toronto Star. "I think he was given a little bit of special dispensation because he was going home, because he had delivered a **** le, and because I never felt like there was ever a connection outside of Kawhi the basketball player, with Toronto."

NFL fans are in a tizzy trying to figure out if CBS reporter Tracy Wolfson smacked Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen on the ******* after their on the field interview after the Bills win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 6.
We can't see exactly where her tap landed because the camera shows us only the front of both of them. It is also worth noting that she is considerably shorter than he is so the slap may not have been intended for the ******* but landed there.
Regardless, it is an odd look on the same week that Charissa Thompson was kissed by Broncos Coach Sean Payton in a pregame exchange likely not intended for the camera and millions of eyes to see.

Andre Iguodala's 2015 Finals MVP trophy has once again become a topic of conversation, this time due to a comment made by Tracy McGrady.
"The MVP of the regular season has more weight than a championship," said McGrady on Cousins with Vince Carter & Tracy McGrady podcast.
This comment was not taken lightly by Iman Shumpert, who has an NBA championship to his name, winning it with the Cleveland Cavaliers as part of their 2016 team.
Shumpert was also part of the Cavaliers team that went to the NBA Finals in 2015.
It was there that Iguodala showed the world his brilliance and brought the Golden State Warriors back from 2-1 down to win the championship.

The New York Giants are adding former Dallas Cowboys running back Phil Mafah to the practice squad, the team announced Monday.
Following the incredible upset win over the Cowboys to begin the season, the Giants add some depth to the running back room behind Cam Skattebo.
A former seventh-round pick with the Cowboys during the 2025 NFL draft, Mafah has only appeared in one career game since entering the league. He has five carries for 18 rushing yards and a touchdown while adding two receptions on two targets for 11 receiving yards.
The Giants aren't planning to make any major changes to the running back room. While Skattebo will lead the way, there was a clear rotation with Devin Singletary and Tyrone Tracy Jr in the backfield. Najee Harris was a healthy scratch in Week 1.
In other roster news, the Giants waived wide receiver Dalen Cambre from the roster.

Boston Red Sox have made a notable change to their lineup for Saturday's meeting with the Kansas City Royals, with Jarren Duran moving up the batting order as Boston looks to respond to three consecutive defeats.
Duran will remain in centre field for the second straight game, but interim manager Chad Tracy has opted to give the outfielder a different spot in the order for the latest Royals clash at Fenway Park.

College football is back and the Big Ten Conference had 18 games played in the first week of the 2026 college football season with the result of many being blowouts.
The anticipation for the season has finally come to an end and most of the teams played as advertised. However, some teams hit the snooze **** on and it took them a moment to get into the game. Here is the Big Ten Roundup of each game involving a Big Ten Conference team.
Rutgers started the season off with a loss as the Minutemen dominated the Scarlet Knights from start to finish. The turning point in the game came in the second quarter as the Scarlet Knights turned the ball over twice, which gave Massachusetts the chance to create a massive 17-point second lead entering the second. Rutgers could be in for a long season.
The Golden Gophers flew past the Panthers with ease as they controlled the game on offense, defense and special teams. Senior wide receiver Javon Tracy started the Golden Gophers season with a bang with two punt return touchdowns to cap off Minnesota's exhilarating blowout.
The Fighting Illini's new senior quarterback Katin Houser took over Illinois' offense exceptionally as they moved up and down the field at will. Illinois' defense also held strong as they limited the Blazers' scoring opportunities with senior linebacker Ismael Kante getting a late-game pick-six.

As the Boston Red Sox make a run toward the postseason, the team will be without its center fielder for at least the next week with a right quadriceps strain.
On Sunday, the Red Sox announced that Ceddanne Rafaela was placed on the 10-day injured list. But the IL stint will be dated back to Sept. 3, so Rafaela could return in a week depending on how he recovers from the injury.
However, Boston interim manager Chad Tracy believes Rafaela could be activated when eligible on Sept. 13.
"That's my expectation," Tracy said, via MLB.com's Ian Browne. "Obviously, he has to go through running stuff next week, and you don't know how he's going to respond to that.
"But the way he's progressing right now, that's my expectation. We have to see how everything goes with the running. But we just got past the point of being able to wait [for him], and not have an extra player here for another four games or so."

The Boston Red Sox made a late-season roster move Sunday, calling up utility player Nate Eaton rather than top prospect Kristian Campbell.
Interim manager Chad Tracy explained the decision, noting that Eaton is simply the better option in the outfield right now. Eaton has appeared in 14 games with Boston this season, posting a .125 batting average with one home run, five RBIs and two stolen bases across 32 at-bats.

His value is not in his bat but in his glove, as he has shown the ability to play third base, center field, right field, shortstop, left field, designated hitter and second base at the big-league level.
Campbell, 24, remains at Triple-A Worcester, where the Red Sox want him getting consistent at-bats rather than sitting on a bench in a limited role.

Red Sox Make Notable Lineup Change For Friday Game Vs. Orioles originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Boston Red Sox will have Trevor Story back in the starting lineup Friday night as they attempt to secure another important road victory over the Baltimore Orioles. Boston revealed its lineup for the second game of the four-game series at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Story will start at shortstop and bat eighth after sitting out Thursday's 6-5 victory.
Isiah Kiner-Falefa started at shortstop in the series opener but will move to the bench Friday. Story's return represents the only change to the batting order submitted by Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy. Ceddanne Rafaela remains out because of tightness in his right quadriceps. Rafaela is considered day-to-day, but his absence will extend to a second consecutive game. Eli White will start in center field and bat ninth.
Roman Anthony will lead off as Boston's designated hitter, followed by Mickey Gasper at first base. Adley Rutschman will catch and bat third one night after delivering his biggest performance since joining the Red Sox. Rutschman homered twice Thursday in his first game back at Camden Yards following the blockbuster trade that sent him from Baltimore to Boston on Aug. 3. His two solo shots helped the Red Sox capture the series opener and improve to 76-65.

The Red Sox would like to claim the AL's top wild-card spot, but their focus appears to be squarely on getting as healthy as possible for the postseason.
Roman Anthony is back after a long absence and already hitting like a superstar, but a new injury concern popped up Thursday night when Ceddanne Rafaela was held out of Boston's lineup.
After the 6-5 win over the Orioles, Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy gave an update on Rafaela that should have concerned fans breathing somewhat of a sigh of relief.

Red Sox Receive Encouraging Ceddanne Rafaela Update After Early Exit originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Boston Red Sox did not have many reasons to feel good after Wednesday's 8-3 loss to the Seattle Mariners, but the initial news on Ceddanne Rafaela appears encouraging. Rafaela was removed after the sixth inning because of quad tightness. Interim manager Chad Tracy indicated the move was precautionary, especially with the Red Sox trailing 8-1 at the time.
"Ceddanne Rafaela exited today with quad tightness," The Boston Globe's Tim Healey reported after speaking with Tracy. "He tried to keep playing, but in a blowout, the Red Sox decided it wasn't worth it."
Rafaela finished 1-for-3 before Eli White replaced him in center field. The fact that Rafaela attempted to remain in the game suggests Boston is not immediately anticipating an extended absence. He should still be considered day to day entering Thursday's series opener against the Baltimore Orioles.
Boston has already been forced to navigate several physical issues during a critical portion of its schedule. Willson Contreras recently landed on the injured list with a hamstring injury. Adley Rutschman has been dealing with a hyperextended right elbow, while Garrett Crochet is still working toward a return from his lat and shoulder issue.

The Boston Red Sox lost Wednesday's series finale against the Seattle Mariners at home by a final score of 8-3. Even with the series loss, Boston remains in position to earn a spot in the American League wild card race for the second consecutive season.
The priority moving forward will be not only securing their spot but also getting as close to full strength as possible before October arrives. That means keeping all their core players healthy, including center fielder Ceddanne Rafaela.

Rafaela departed Wednesday's game in the top of the seventh inning with backup outfielder Eli White entering in his place in center field. After the game, interim manager Chad Tracy provided the reasoning behind his exit.
Tracy revealed that Rafaela is dealing with quad tightness and with the game out of reach he decided the smart move was to not push it and remove him from the contes, per Chris Cotillo of MassLive.

It was probably not a coincidence that at the exact four week mark when the puck drops on the new season, the Canes sent out a post with news on how fans will be able to watch the other 72 games that aren't on national TV this year.
The local entity broadcasting the games will be called the Hurricanes Hockey Network. It was also announced everyone that Hurricanes fans had come to enjoy on screen will officially be back for the 2026-27 season. Mike Maniscalco and Tripp Tracy had been announced prior, but the release made official that Shane Willis and Hanna Yates would also grace the screen during the broadcasts.
That Willis is back isn't a surprise as he was a Hurricanes employee already. Yates, however, is the news as prior to this season she was actually an employee not of the Hurricanes but of the entity that broadcast the games—Main Street Sports, last known by FanDuel Sports Network. For her to continue to appear on the broadcasts, she would have had to become a Hurricanes employee—something that was up in the air as Tom Dundon is known for being, shall we say, thrifty when it comes to the number of people he'll hire when he hast to.
That said it isn't that much of a narrative changer for Dundon. The release mentions that VP of Communications Mike Sundheim will add managing "all aspects of production, distribution, sales and marketing for HHN, in coordination with the National Hockey League." In short he'll still do all the work he did before and add more to his plate. Yates also will be doing more than just appearing on the broadcast as she added digital host to her **** le, so it's possible we'll see her a lot more on the official team videos that are sent out across social media platforms.
Unfortunately in terms of news, that was it for the communication and that leaves unanswered a huge question: how to watch? The only acknowledgement of how fans would be able to watch this new Hurricanes Hockey Network came at the bottom of the release:

Red Sox Get Major Bullpen Boost Before Doubleheader Against Yankees originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Boston Red Sox received an important reinforcement at exactly the right time.
Boston announced Saturday that right-handed reliever Garrett Whitlock was reinstated from the 15-day injured list. He will serve as the club's 27 players for its day-night doubleheader against the New York Yankees. Whitlock had been sidelined since Aug. 10 because of right elbow inflammation. He threw live batting practice Wednesday and came through the session without any issues, clearing the way for his return at Yankee Stadium. The timing could hardly be better for interim manager Chad Tracy.
Boston must cover at least 18 innings Saturday, with Game 1 beginning at 1:05 p.m. ET and the nightcap scheduled for 7:15 p.m. ET. Even the deepest bullpen can be stretched during a doubleheader, especially when the second game comes only a few hours after the first ends. Whitlock gives Tracy another proven late-inning option and reduces the likelihood that one of Boston's lower-leverage relievers will be forced into a critical spot.
The Red Sox are also calling up Raymond Burgos as the final player on the roster for the doubleheader.

Just when you thought it was safe to draft a Giants RB, the team signed Najee Harris. Could he be the spoiler in a suddenly crowded backfield?
If you're a Cam Skattebo true believer, or if you plan to add Tyrone Tracy as an insurance policy, there's still a chance that this could all work in your favor. Harris is still returning to form after tearing his Achilles last year. He has only 19 touches since the end of the 2024 season. He has not yet earned a weekly role, and there's a chance he could be a distant third wheel.
More realistically, however, Harris will help stabilize a relatively injury-prone RB corps. Skattebo missed nine games last year and is known for inviting contact. I'd put his over/under on 2026 games played at 13.5. The expectation this summer has been that Tracy would be in line for at least a few spot starts. Although he filled in admirably for Skattebo last year, he regressed a little bit statistically on a per-touch basis, including dips in yards per carry and broken-tackle rate.
The addition of Harris takes some pressure off the Giants to overwork Skattebo, and it also generates competition with Tracy for the 1B role. It's essentially a lose-lose if you've been targeting either of those guys. The only winner is Harris, who has plenty of room to pop based on his current overall-237 / RB66 ADP. We'll know in the next one to two weeks whether he'll be a fantasy spoiler candidate.

Tyrone Tracy's nightmarish preseason took another seemingly unfortunate turn on Friday night when he left the New York Giants' game against the New York Jets with an injury.
Tracy, the Giants' leading rusher the past two seasons, has had a rough preseason. He missed a block in the first preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings that led to quarterback Jaxson Dart taking a big hit. In Week 2 against the Miami Dolphins, Tracy fumbled in the red zone despite being untouched.
Running backs Cam Skattebo and Devin Singletary did not dress for Friday's game. Tracy, looking to play a clean game after the miscues in the first games, and Najee Harris did.
Tracy was having an excellent night before being injured. He had four carries for 37 yards, an average of 9.3 yards per carry. Tracy had a 6-yard touchdown run, and a long run of 16 yards.
This is the hit that led to Tracy's injury:

Bob Myers, the executive given the most credit for Golden State's four NBA championships from the 2014-15 season to the 2021-22 season, recently took the time to join NBA Hall of Famers Tracy McGrady and Vince Carter on their podcast. Throughout the duration of the episode, Myers revealed many stories throughout his career, discussing what factors led to him leaving the team, what he misses most about the role and the toughest decision he had to make when in charge.
Additionally, Myers shared a story about a veteran player that urged him to keep the roster in tact prior to their eventual dynasty. After winning 51 games during the 2013-14 campaign and losing to the Los Angeles Clippers in Game 7 of the first round of the Western Conference Playoffs, Myers revealed that he received a call from one of the team's most influential veterans, saying, "Jermaine calls me three days after we lost, and I'm thinking he's going to tell me he's retired and whatever. He goes, 'Hey man, listen to me; do not break this team up.' And I was kind of like, what's so great about this team? We just lost in the first round. And he goes, 'I've been in a lot of locker rooms at the end of a season, and this team knows how to lose.' He said it bothered them the right amount."
While O'Neal, a six-time All-Star in his own right, would retire following an 18-year career after that season, the Warriors would begin a historic dynasty the very next year in the 2014-15 campaign.

The summer of 2026 has been a big one for the NBA. Besides major trades and ownership drama, we've seen several players call it a career, including Russell Westbrook and Kyle Lowry. Of course, there's also point guard legend Chris Paul, who retired back in February after being released by the Clippers.
In the case of Paul and Westbrook specifically, their NBA stories may be over now, but the fun is only just getting started. According to NBA veteran Matt Barnes, the former superstars are planning to link up for an epic vacation, where they will bring their wives to honor their storied careers.
"I just talked to CP two days ago," said Matt Barnes on 'All the Smoke.' "He and [Russell Westbrook] are going on vacation. They're taking their wives on vacation. So, two of the greatest PGs are going to kick it up in the sand, have some drinks, and really just celebrate because this is the end of Russ and CP's careers. **** of a run, bro. One of the most feared point guards we've ever seen. I remember him in his heyday with the Lob City team; he was a monster."
It's never easy for an athlete to walk away from their favorite sport, but it's a moment that comes for every player. What comes next varies from person to person, but it really depends on how involved they want to be with the game. While some ex-players (like Tracy McGrady and Vince Carter) opt for media roles, others (like Jason Kidd) accept a coaching job. There are also those like Tim Duncan, who stay out of the limelight entirely.
We don't yet know which category Russ and Paul will fall into, but it's likely they need this vacation after the way they ended things. For Chris, his final stint with the Clippers was supposed to be a final send-off for his career, but things turned ugly when they struggled to win games. As much as he tried to right the ship, Paul alienated himself from the organization by overestimating his authority and making the wrong impression in the locker room.

On Tuesday, one of the most popular golf content creators with Texas ties received massive backlash over a now-infamous commercial displaying a woman being shoved to the ground by a man after trying to pull a driver out of a golf bag. The video was yanked after igniting outrage on social media, but more consequences are on the way.
Two days later, Callaway Golf ended its relationship with Frisco-based Good Good Golf amid the ongoing fallout from the influencer brand's controversial ad. Callaway initially reposted the Good Good video on social media before pulling it from its channels. In support of efforts to prevent violence against women, Callaway announced it would donate $1 million to organizations working to prevent violence against women.
"Over the last several days, we have listened and reflected deeply on the hurt and disappointment caused by the video we reposted," read a statement from Callaway Golf on Thursday. "We heard from individuals who shared personal experiences related to violence against women, and their stories were powerful reminders that this issue touches the lives of far too many people. Unequivocally, violence against women is unacceptable and should never be trivialized, normalized, or used as entertainment."
The statement also mentions the immediate severing of their relationship with Good Good, the $1 million donation, and a refocus for their content review and approval processes going forward.

Jake Reiner is opening up in his first interview since the deaths of his parents Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner.
In a new sitdown interview with KABC shared Thursday, Aug. 27, the eldest son of the late director and photographer said that the past eight months have been a "living nightmare" since his mother and father were both killed.
"Nobody really understands what it's like to go through something like that until you're living it," he said. "It's been eight months. It feels like eight years at the same time. And it also feels like eight minutes because every moment that I wake up, I'm reminded of my reality."
Beloved director Rob Reiner and his producer wife Michele were found dead from multiple sharp force injuries in their Los Angeles home in December. Their son Nick Reiner, 32, has been charged with their killings. He is facing two counts of murder with the special circumstance allegations of multiple murders and murder by means of lying in wait, and he has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Rob and Michele Reiner shared three children: Jake, Nick and Romy. The "Princess Bride" director also adopted Tracy Reiner during his marriage to Penny Marshall.

Rob Reiner's son Jake Reiner has given his first sit-down interview about the murders of his parents.
Eight months after the deaths of the iconic filmmaker and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, their eldest son has opened up about the grief he is still experiencing.
During a sit-down interview with KABC-TV's Mark Cota-Robles, Jake, 35, spoke about coming to terms with the loss of his parents.
"It's been eight months. It feels like eight years at the same time, and it also feels like eight minutes," he said in the interview, which partially aired on Good Morning America on Thursday. "Every moment that I wake up, I'm reminded of my reality."
Rob, 78, and Michele, 70, were found stabbed inside their home on 14 December 2025. Their 32-year-old son Nick was subsequently arrested and later indicted on two counts of first-degree murder. He has pleaded not guilty and is awaiting trial in custody.
In addition to sons Jake and Nick, the When Harry Met Sally director and Michele also share a 28-year-old daughter, Romy. Rob also has daughter Tracy, 62, from a previous marriage.

Before joining the Philadelphia 76ers, Jaylen Brown tried to become a leader. Brown was the No. 1 option for the Boston Celtics during the 2025-26 NBA season, as his former co-star Jayson Tatum recovered from an Achilles tear. It was the first time that the star forward became the main offensive option, and he proved that he can lead a playoff team.
Brown led the Celtics to the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference with a 56-26 record. Unfortunately for Boston, they were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs by the 76ers after seven games.
His strong outing last season was one of the main reasons why Philly pursued the blockbuster trade this summer. Bob Myers, the president of sports for Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment, the parent company that owns the 76ers, believes that Brown can be the team's leader moving forward.

The Boston Red Sox still have Chad Tracy on an interim tag as manager after moving on from Alex Cora a few months ago and giving Tracy the job.
The Red Sox are making the right decision by letting this play out, since there's really no reason to rush. The Red Sox have to make the best possible decision for themselves, Tracy, and the organization as a whole.
Tracy has done a very good job and is a candidate to keep, but ultimately, the Red Sox have to feel comfortable with every decision they make.
As for other potential candidates, it doesn't sound like there are many for the Red Sox to really go after. Boston has spoken to other names, according to reports, but a guy like Carlos Mendoza and former Chicago Cubs skipper David Ross aren't viewed as options right now.

After Russell Westbrook announced his NBA retirement, the entire sports world remembered one of the most epic careers in recent history. Even though he walked away ringless, the NBA superstar was one of the era-defining figures in the 2010s.
When you think of that decade, you think of Westbrook. Alongside Kevin Durant, he co-starred on a constant **** le contender. The Oklahoma City Thunder were frequently one of the main characters. The all-time triple-double leader was a one-time MVP winner and a perennial All-NBA member. He completely lit up the box score.
NBA legends — past and present — have spent the last two weeks commemorating Westbrook's mythical run. He's a future Hall-of-Famer and part of a pantheon of basketball gods. Someone else he shares company with in that regard? Tracy McGrady.
McGrady already sits in the Hall of Fame. He's one of the more dynamic scorers of the 2000s. The seven-time All-Star might also be ringless, but the basketball universe fondly remembers his impact on the game. He recently went on his 'Cousins' podcast with Vince Carter to make a bold statement.
"20-20-20, bro? That's only been done twice. Like, I know Kobe had 81. Bam had 83. I seen Luka hit 70. I seen Donovan Mitchell hit 70. I seen Book hit 70," McGrady said. "But the 20-20-20 to me is probably the greatest individual performance that I've seen out of a player from Westbrook."
