One of the oldest players in the league still thinks he has a lot to contribute to any NBA franchise, but understands that he prefers to play for a team under construction, than aspire to win another championship in a title-contending squad. This is Chris Paul’s interpretation on what he’s pursuing in the twilight of his successful career. This explains why the point guard decided to go to San Antonio this summer, a team that just produced a 22-60 campaign, but that is building a team that they hope will bring back trophies led by Victor Wembanyama, the reigning Rookie…
It looks like Conor McGregor’s pinky toe is feeling much better. Last month, the Irish megastar bowed out of his highly anticipated headliner with Michael Chandler at UFC 303 after he broke his little toe during a training session. Being that it was the first time McGregor had ever backed out of a scheduled fight, fans were expecting the situation to be a bit more dire, prompting pundits and fellow fighters to absolutely shred the former two-division titleholder on social media.

Jonas Vingegaard knew Tadej Pogačar was going to rip the Tour de France apart on the upper reaches of Pla d’Adet on stage 14, but this time he couldn’t stitch it all seamlessly back together. The general classification is now tailored altogether more comfortably for Pogačar, even if Vingegaard remained bullish about his prospects of snatching the yellow jersey off his back by Nice.“I did a good performance, so I don’t think I can be disappointed in that, but of course it’s disappointing to lose 40 seconds,” Vingegaard said when he emerged from the Visma-Lease a Bike bus long after…

Kameda Promotions and 3150 FIGHT confirmed the event, which will air live on ABEMA-TV.
