NEW YORK — Chet Holmgren knew that, for the Oklahoma City Thunder, it could’ve gone the other way.
Minutes before he tried to fit his 7-foot-1 frame into a padded folding chair here at Madison Square Garden, his team escaped with a 103-100 win Wednesday, March 4 over the Knicks that didn’t come without drama.

Charles Leclerc believes Lewis Hamilton isn’t in a “different place” at Ferrari compared to his first year with the team. Instead, he argues he’s simply excited as the duo head into a bout of new regulations.
Hamilton’s first season in red was a disappointing one as the seven-time world champion struggled with his Italian machinery. It was the saddest we’d seen the Briton as weekend after weekend he fought against the ground effect characteristics of the SF-25.
