LSU star Angel Reese was named the 2023–24 SEC Player of the Year on Tuesday after enjoying another dominant regular season.
The junior forward also was named to the All-SEC first team and the SEC All-Defensive Team. Reese led the conference in scoring (19.1 points per game) and rebounding (13 per game) for the second time in her collegiate career. She’s the first player to lead the SEC in both categories in consecutive seasons since Vanderbilt’s Wendy Scholtens in 1988–89 and 1989–90.

Let’s breakdown the Kirk Cousins to the Falcons rumors in NFL free agency.
The biggest offensive chip to fall during the first wave of free agency this offseason is bound to be Minnesota Vikings QB Kirk Cousins. With his contract having a no-trade clause and no-tag clause, the Vikings and Cousins have to come to a deal or his time in Minnesota is up. The major holdup in the Minnesota and Cousins talks is the guaranteed money.

The Boston Celtics are going for the series sweep on Tuesday night against the shorthanded Cleveland Cavaliers. No team is hotter than the Celtics, winners of 11 straight, most recently a 52-point win against the Golden State Warriors over the weekend. Conversely, the Cavaliers are just 5–5 over their last 10 games and will be without all-star guard Donovan Mitchell (knee).
Boston (48–12) has been especially dominant over the last few weeks, having won its last six by an average of 27 points.

Before becoming one of the best pairs of brothers to play in the NFL, Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce were just two kids in Ohio playing football in the backyard. 
Between them they have 16 Pro Bowl selections, 10 first-team All-Pro selections and four Super Bowl titles. Both have made compelling cases to be included in the Hall of Fame some day. That day could be coming soon for Jason, who announced on Monday that he is retiring from the NFL after 13 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles.

How can fans watch the Arnold Palmer Invitational? Here’s everything you need to know about the PGA Tour’s fourth signature event of 2024.
The fourth Signature Event of the 2024 PGA Tour season has arrived, and it will take place at one of the most iconic venues in the sport.

After six solid years, it appears that running back Saquon Barkley’s tenure with the New York Giants is coming to an end.
The Giants will not place the franchise tag on Barkley for the 2024 season and he is set to become a free agent, according to a Tuesday morning report from Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Barkley, 27, has played for New York since the Giants took him with the second pick of the 2018 draft.
The Penn State product played under the non-exclusive franchise tag in 2023, rushing for 962 yards and six touchdowns in 14 games.

The Panthers need a lot of help and don’t have great draft capital.

On the court, Iowa guard Caitlin Clark has set records in spades. The Hawkeyes superstar reached major college basketball’s final scoring frontier Sunday, passing legendary LSU guard Pete Maravich to set a new all-gender mark of 3,685 points.
It is her gravitational pull off the court, however, that has allowed Clark to reach a rare celebrity status in college athletics.
Accordingly, No. 6 Iowa’s 93-83 victory over No. 2 Ohio State on Sunday afternoon on Fox drew a remarkable television audience of 3.4 million viewers.

The Giants are not placing the franchise tag on running back Saquon Barkley, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
