A lot has been said since the U.S. men’s national team decided to replace Kawhi Leonard with Derrick White, after they assessed that the Clippers star was still suffering from the knee injury that kept him out of his club’s final games from this past season. However, some believe that there was another Celtics player who deserved the call.

Either way, JB didn’t want any trouble, so he revealed that he called his teammate…
Conor McGregor appears ready to make his comeback. Following an eventful week where he hosted a BKFC press conference, launched a new record label, blasted Jake Paul after his boxing match and apparently fired Mike Perry from his job with the bare-knuckle promotion, the Irish superstar took to Twitter to inform his next opponent that he’s healthy and ready to fight. The comment came after McGregor posted a video showing him hitting a punching machine with no gloves on and that led to Michael Chandler replying “but show us the bare foot knuckles.” McGregor broke his pinky toe in the…

It had to be him. The most novel finale to the Tour de France in the race’s history still contrived to produce the most predictable of endings, as Tadej Pogačar cruised to his sixth stage victory to crown a crushing overall win.When the concluding Nice time trial was confirmed two years ago, ASO doubtless dreamt of a repeat of 1989 and all that, when Greg LeMond snatched yellow from Laurent Fignon at the last.

Elliot Worsell speaks to the IBF super-lightweight champion after his away win in Puerto Rico YOU work hard for 12 weeks, work even harder for 12 rounds, and then suddenly it stops. The work stops, the fight stops, and all you can do in the end is hope that you have come away with the result you deserve; the result that befits all the hard work. For Australia’s Liam Paro, currently relaxing in Las Vegas, the abrupt halting of action and of work has been every bit as jarring as it has been welcome. It all stopped, as expected, the…
