Fellow PGA Tour players Xander Schauffele and Justin Thomas think it’s a head-scratching situation, just like the rest of the golf world.

No one likes to talk about tanking, even though we all know it happens everywhere practically all the time. There’s an art to it, something the Dallas Mavericks overlooked or weren’t aware of, and now they’re paying the price.
The price is a cool three-quarters of a million dollars.
The Mavericks raised eyebrows when they benched several key players in an elimination game against the Chicago Bulls earlier this month.
It was one of the more clear-cut instances of a team tanking, and the league handled it accordingly with a $750,000 for “conduct detrimental to the league.

Why go to school when you can go to Australia?
Five-star recruit A.J. Johnson has de-committed from the University of Texas. Instead, he signed a deal with the Illawarra Hawks of the Australian NBL.
The 6-foot-6 guard from California committed to play for the Longhorns in the fall. Johnson had been a possible one-and-done lottery pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.
