Snoop Dogg confirmed the reports via his own Instagram on Monday, sharing a photo of Senators players including Brady Tkachuk and Drake Batherson alongside an image of Sparks.

The Philadelphia Eagles have completely rebranded after the 2023 NFL Draft. Not really, but they might as well at this point.
Over the course of the past two years, Philadelphia has essentially drafted the entire Georgia defense. Considering that the Bulldogs had one of the best defenses of all-time, it isn’t a bad strategy.

This is their generation of basketball. Every other great player is in the book, but LeBron James and Steph Curry belong on the cover.
That is why this Lakers-Warriors series is such a treat.
Cardinals fans appear to have gotten an update when it comes to the DeAndre Hopkins trade rumors—this time from the man himself. In a video posted to his Instagram story Monday, the wide receiver showed up at the Cardinals facility with a message.
“I see everybody telling me to stay, who said I wanna go?” Hopkins said. “Who said I wanted to leave? I’m out here working, baby.”
Trade rumors have swirled during the offseason and things took a dramatic turn when Hopkins appeared to hint he was interested in other teams back in April.

Jimbo Fisher has been at Texas A&M for five full years. Florida State’s former head coach was hired away by the Aggies in December of 2017.
He has not lived up to the expectations.
Texas A&M has finished ranked in the AP Poll just twice since Fisher’s arrival to College Station, with its best year taking place during the COVID-shortened 2020 season. Other than that… meh.

For the Aggies to miss out on a bowl game last season, after beginning the year ranked as high as No. 6, was embarrassing.
Two NBA playoff semifinal games are on deck Monday night. The 76ers–Celtics series gets underway from TD Garden and later in the evening, the Suns–Nuggets series continues with Game 2 from Ball Arena after Denver jumped out to a 1–0 lead over the weekend.
Both home teams are favored, though the large line in favor of Boston (-10.5) reflects the likelihood that Philadelphia is without its best player, Joel Embiid, while Phoenix is installed as a 4.5-point underdog.
