Steph Curry’s pregame warmup routine went horribly wrong on Saturday night. He made amends after a nine-point overtime win over the Bucks, but he forgot a common courtesy that could have avoided the entire issue in the first place.
Curry, perhaps the greatest pure shooter in NBA history, is known as much for his clutch jumpers as he is for his unique warmup. That might be a stretch, but the warmup is as famous as warmups get, and it’s all backed by science.

New York has been recruiting the quarterback all offseason.
Everyone is waiting for Aaron Rodgers to decide his next move, and despite conflicting reports, several Jets players seem to believe they will be playing with the star quarterback in 2023.
Jets players have been openly recruiting Rodgers for weeks, with the hope that the four-time NFL MVP would decide to agree to a trade to New York. That includes cornerback Sauce Gardner, wide receiver Garrett Wilson and running back Breece Hall getting together to burn a cheesehead while making a recruiting pitch on video.

After a months-long inquiry, the federation has released details of misconduct allegations against the USMNT coach and the fallout at the 2022 World Cup.
The details are absorbing and revealing at times, but the ultimate findings of the independent investigation into the allegations of domestic abuse against former U.S. men’s national team coach Gregg Berhalter and the behavior of those who accused him, Claudio and Danielle Reyna, aren’t that surprising: Berhalter behaved badly three decades ago but has atoned. The Reynas behaved badly during the Qatar World Cup but aren’t subject to U.

It’s not official yet, but it’s quickly moving that way. Packers (for now) quarterback Aaron Rodgers is indeed moving toward accepting a trade that would send him out the land of the Cheesehead and into the Big Apple.

Trey Wingo claimed a deal with the Jets was ‘done’
The entire NFL world is awaiting Aaron Rodgers’s decision regarding his future with the Packers. On Sunday, Trey Wingo reported that a blockbuster deal sending Rodgers to the Jets was “done,” but it didn’t take long for conflicting reports to emerge.
“Hearing Rodgers to the Jets is done. History about to repeat itself between New York and Green Bay. Time is indeed a flat circle,” wrote Wingo on Twitter. 
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport denied any deal being done, indicating that “nothing has happened.

The ESPN personality made his regional champion picks on “First Take” on Monday.
Following the unveiling of the 2023 men’s NCAA tournament bracket on Sunday, sports media members began to dissect the matchups and make their Final Four selections.
ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith unveiled his picks on First Take on Monday, as he was joined by college basketball analyst Seth Greenberg in a segment dedicated entirely to the men’s bracket.
Smith revealed that he has No. 1 seed Alabama making the Final Four out of the South Region, No. 2 seed UCLA in the West, No.

Carolina traded up to the top overall selection last week.
The Panthers decided to trade up to the No. 1 overall pick six weeks before the NFL draft will take place, giving them time to figure out which quarterback they want. And it is a good thing the draft is next month because it seems like they need some more time.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, there is a rumor that Panthers owner David Tepper and head coach Frank Reich are split on which quarterback to take.
“There’s a belief that David Tepper loves Bryce Young, [and] Frank Reich likes CJ Stroud,” he said.

He even cited KenPom.
Every Selection Sunday, there are bound to be a handful of teams that feel they were wrongly excluded from the field of 68. But not many of them have a sitting governor weigh in on their behalf. 
The Rutgers men’s team found itself on the outside looking in on Sunday night despite a strong season in the Big Ten. The Scarlet Knights went 19–14 overall and 10-10 in conference, thanks in large part to one of the nation’s best defenses. In his final bracket projection, Sports Illustrated’s Kevin Sweeney had Rutgers as one of the last four at-large selections.

Niners quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo plans to sign with the Raiders, sources told ESPN’s Dianna Russini and Adam Schefter.
