Warriors star Stephen Curry is one of the most difficult players to guard in the NBA. His combination of speed, vision, and of course, his legendary shooting touch make him a matchup nightmare for most opponents.
Despite that, there have been players who have given Golden State’s point guard some issue with their defensive acumen. 
During an interview on the TODAY Show, Curry revealed his list of toughest defenders, which included a mix of current and former players: Bucks guard Jrue Holiday, former Grizzlies guard Tony Allen and former 17-year veteran Metta World Peace (Ron Artest).

Bills quarterback Josh Allen managed to get some hilarious revenge on NBC Sports reporter Peter King during training camp on Sunday.
Last year during Buffalo’s training camp, Allen went viral after an awkward moment during the end of an interview with King, during which the Bills star could be seen reaching out for a handshake, only to be left hanging as King turned toward the camera and signed off.
When the two met up for an interview on Sunday, Allen flipped the script to recreate the moment in his favor.

Luis Severino has struggled through his first 12 starts of the 2023 MLB season. After another disappointing showing on the mound during Sunday’s clash against the Orioles, the Yankees’ starting pitcher was brutally honest with his self-assessment.
Severino pitched just 3 1/3 innings in the AL East rivalry game, though fans were wondering why manager Aaron Boone left him on the mound even that long.
The 29-year-old surrendered nine earned runs on 10 hits, including letting up six runs before recording a single out in the first inning.

The increasingly messy game of intrigue between the Colts and running back Jonathan Taylor has taken yet another turn.
On Sunday night, Taylor took to Twitter to dispute reports that he reported back pain to the organization—an occurrence it was speculated Indianapolis would use to get out of its financial commitment to Taylor in 2023.
“Never had a back pain,” Taylor wrote. “Never reported back pain. Not sure who ‘sources’ are, but find new ones.

Time to get the hot glue gun out again.
The Red Bull F1 team won another trophy Sunday at the Belgian Grand Prix. And someone broke the winning trophy for the second week in a row.

Now, Hall of Fame forward Charles Barkley and guard Michael Jordan don’t seem to be much of anything to each other, as Barkley outlined on 60 Minutes Sunday evening.

Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley were best friends until Barkley criticized Jordan’s management of his NBA team.

RB Jonathan Taylor reported back pain during his pre-training camp physical that was deemed to be from an injury that was not sustained while playing for Indianapolis, a source told ESPN.

The drama surrounding Jonathan Taylor’s contract dispute with the Colts intensified on Sunday following a report detailing a major move the club could make with its star running back.
Indianapolis is considering placing Taylor, 24, on the non-football injury list due to an undisclosed back injury he suffered while working out on his own in Arizona, according to Colts reporter Mike Chappell of FOX59 and CBS4 Sports.
