I’m always a big two-sport athlete guy. It just fascinates me given how much it takes to compete at the highest level in one sport, let alone two, and come the Paris Olympics, ex-NBA player Chase Budinger will add his name to the list of two-sport athletes when he competes in the Olympic beach volleyball tournament.
Budinger played in the NBA from 2009 to 2016 and had stints with the Houston Rockets, Minnesota Timberwolves, Indiana Pacers, and Phoenix Suns. He then capped off his pro career in Spain, hopefully crushing some paella and various types of expensive ham.

Bryson DeChambeau finished runner-up in the 2024 PGA Championship, one shot behind Xander Schauffele. His four-day score of 20-under par made him just the third player in the 106-year history of the event to reach that mark, he led the field in driving distance and scrambling, and was third in strokes gained tee-to-green for the week.
Sure, not hoisting the Wanamaker Trophy is the big takeaway, but most would say that DeChambeau played some stellar golf at Valhalla Golf Club. Not according to the man himself.

Caitlin Clark is the most contentious story in sports. Consequently, very few pundits and journalists discuss her honestly. That’s often what happens when conversations approach the third rail, as in race.
Still, there are a few members of the old guard in sports media who are not afraid of the social media mob or pinhead middle managers demanding they apologize.
On Monday, “PTI” hosts Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon had one of the more honest conversations about Clark and race that you’ll find on sports television.

This is one of the weirdest stories of the year.
Allegations in Bucharest have spawned one of the most bizarre stories the world of soccer has ever seen. It’s been alleged that former Portugal back Edgar Ié, who rose to prominence playing for Barcelona might have sent his twin brother Edelino Ié to play in his place when he was transferred to Dinamo Bucharest back in February.
Rumors of the identity switch began in early May when things about Ié simply weren’t adding up.
The Jazz’s new uniforms are a modern twist on a classic
As someone who is only 23 years old, I really have no room to say whether or not the 90’s were better than the current time we live in … because I wasn’t alive during the 90’s. However, what I can say is that almost every jersey from the 90’s or before was better than some of the modern jerseys we see around sports, especially in the NBA.
The Utah Jazz are channeling their ‘90s aesthetic with their new uniforms, which they released on Wednesday.
New York has found ways to lose in just about every way imaginable. Here are the lowlights.
Well, kids, the Stanley Cup Final is upon us and get underway Saturday.
For fans of the Oilers and Panthers, best of luck to your teams, but those of us who typically root for any of the other 30 teams need something to root for.
Sure, some Lightning fans wouldn’t dream of rooting for the Panthers.
