It came as a surprise when Nikolas Khamenia decided to enter the transfer portal following his first season at Duke. The former 5-star recruit out of Harvard Westlake HS played 19.8 minutes per game, putting up 5.7 points and 3.3 rebounds as the Blue Devils marched to a 35-3 record.
With a year of experience under his belt, the 6-foot-8 Khamenia would definitely see even more playing time as a sophomore next season, and while his name is still in the transfer portal, one Duke podcast believes there might be signs of him returning to Durham for another year.

SEATTLE — A wholesale change to the U.S. women’s national team roster between its first and second matches against Japan exposed the significant gaps between each side’s bench depth.
At Lumen Field, in front of a record-breaking crowd for a standalone women’s soccer game of 36,128 people, Japan claimed the second of its three matches against the U.S. with a 1-0 win. Despite the 63 per cent possession the USWNT enjoyed throughout the match, the champions of Asia earned their victory — and leveled the series at 1-1 — through punishing technical precision and speed of play.
Former Premier League referee believes Michael Carrick is wasting his time appealing Lisandro Martinez’s red card
Manchester United are set to appeal against Lisandro Martinez’s red card in the 2-1 defeat against Leeds United at the behest of Michael Carrick.
However, former Premier League referee Peter Watson has told the interim manager that he’s “wasting his time” and has “no chance of success”.
Martinez was handed his marching orders just 11 minutes into the second half for pulling Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s ponytail during an aerial duel.

Football is increasingly a game dictated by numbers.
The draft profile for Caleb Downs should begin there.
Let’s start with these numbers, from charting data collected while I studied his 2025 college football season.

The transfer portal has completely changed men’s college basketball, essentially making every player a free agent at the end of each season.
Miami Dolphins fans want general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan to build those trenches.
And Dolphins fans would love it if his first-round pick is a Miami Hurricanes offensive or defensive lineman.
Tackle/guard Francis Mauigoa is the Dolphins fans’ first choice for the 11th overall pick in a highly-unofficial fan poll conducted by the Post on X.
Mauigioa garnered 42 percent of the vote, just ahead of ‘Canes defensive lineman Rueben Bain, who received 36 percent of the vote.
Mauigoa was the Post’s pick at No. 11 overall in NFL Mock Draft 3.0.

Rory McIlroy has the skill and mental fortitude to potentially secure up to 10 Masters titles, according to former Open champion Padraig Harrington.
The bold prediction follows McIlroy’s recent triumph at Augusta National, where the 36-year-old joined an elite group of Jack Nicklaus, Sir Nick Faldo and Tiger Woods in successfully defending his title.
Harrington, a back-to-back Open winner from 2007 and the 2008 PGA Championship victor, believes McIlroy’s performance underscores his capacity for sustained dominance at the iconic course.
Rueben Bain’s auto accidents that made national headlines on Sunday and Monday almost universally drew comparisons between the University of Miami defensive end and current NFL offensive lineman Laremy Tunsil because the toxic disclosures so late in the draft process might affect Bain’s draft stock as it did Tunsil’s a decade ago.
But that’s not how NFL teams are thinking.
Tunsil isn’t the player teams are using as a comparable for Bain and neither is his pre-draft fall from a top 3 prospect to No. 13 overall in 2016.
Heat center Bam Adebayo suffered a lower back injury after a fall in the second quarter and was ruled out in the second half.
