De’Aaron Fox became the NBA world’s punching bag after Game 4 of the NBA Finals. The San Antonio Spurs guard had a horrific second half, headlined by taking an early layup attempt in the clutch when he could have just wasted time.

The UFC has spent months making plans for one of the most unique events in MMA history, UFC Freedom 250 at the White House this Sunday in Washington, D.C.
The seven-fight show features fan-favorites Diego Lopes, Michael Chandler and Sean O’Malley in separate fights, a heavyweight interim title clash between Alex Pereira and Ciryl Gane, and a lightweight championship bout between Ilia Topuria and challenger Justin Gaethje. The card is stacked with big names and fights that promise finishes.
But there is one possible issue: Inclement weather.

OMAHA, NE — The Ole Miss baseball offense threw the first punch in the College World Series against North Carolina but could not deliver the knockout blow.
It was uncharacteristic for the Rebels, who were 5-0 in the NCAA Tournament before getting to Omaha.
“It’s disappointing we weren’t able to finish,” Ole Miss coach Mike Bianco said. “That doesn’t happen much to us.”
No. 5 North Carolina beat the Rebels 6-2 on June 12 in the first day of action in the CWS. Ole Miss will face Troy in an elimination game on June 14 (1 p.m., ESPN).

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Yordan Alvarez became the third player in Houston history to hit two homers in an inning, with a two-run shot and a grand slam during a nine-run first, and the Astros beat the Kansas City Royals 10-8 on Friday night.
Alvarez is the 63rd player in major league history to hit two homers in one inning, and the first Houston player since Jeff Bagwell did it on June 24, 1994. He is the first since Boston’s David Ortiz on Aug. 12, 2008 to do it in the first.

That. Just. Happened.
The U.S. men’s national team demolished Paraguay 4-1 to begin their 2026 FIFA World Cup—the first time ever the USMNT scored four goals in a World Cup game—and it could’ve (should’ve?) been more.

It was always going to be a tall task facing burgeoning Yankee killer Trey Yesavage, so it certainly does not help when your own starter coughs up three runs in the first inning and two more in the second.

The White Sox took care of business to earn their eighth straight home win.
Just like dealing with a moody teenager, you never know what you’re going to get with Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Roki Sasaki. It seems that half the time he pitches gems, and the other half are absolute duds. Worse for the Dodgers, with Shohei Ohtani out due to knee inflammation the White Sox had a perfect opportunity to steal a win against the defending champions regardless of Roki’s performance.

BINGHAMTON – Susquehanna Valley (20-4) and Maine-Endwell (18-6) remained this year’s state semifinalists in the 2026 New York Public High School Athletic Association (NYSPHSAA) softball tournament after securing 21-11 and 13-5 victories over Section 6’s Alden and Depew, respectively, before exiting the state tournament in a heartbreaking 8-7 and 5-2 loss against Section 2’s Chatham (23-2) and Averill Park (21-4).

After years of waiting, the United States men’s national team has finally found a renowned No. 9. Now, he’s slated to make a splash on the world’s stage.
As far as USMNT players go, few are as important as Folarin Balogun. The lanky striker has found success in Europe, emerging as one of the continent’s better young strikers.

The United States Men’s National Team opened their World Cup journey Friday night on a grass field at SoFi Stadium. Amid their 3-0 first-half romp over Paraguay, San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle took to Twitter to comment on the playing surface at the home stadium of the Los Angeles Rams.
“Also this grass looks great on Sofi’s field…” Kittle wrote. “Wonder if we could get that all season.”
Playing surfaces have been a topic of conversation around the NFL as injuries on artificial surfaces have come under increasing scrutiny.

When Gavin Gallaher came to the plate in the bottom of the seventh inning Friday night in Omaha, the UNC second baseman was still looking for his first career hit in the Men’s College World Series. Between 2024 and the first part of Friday night’s game against Ole Miss, Gallaher was 0-15 in Omaha.
But finally got a hit in Omaha, and he made that first hit count.
The UNC infielder laced a single up the middle, past the dive of shortstop Owen Paino, to bring Colin Hynek home from second and give the Tar Heels a slim 3-2 lead.

Everything changed when Victor Wembanyama’s right elbow caught Karl-Anthony Towns’ chin in Game 4. The NBA Finals were never the same.
Wembanyama’s dangerous elbow during a swim move at the 9:27 mark of the third quarter resulted in a Flagrant 1 penalty and two trips to the free-throw line for Towns with possession. It was a costly play in the immediate term, but the damage to the Spurs’ title chances has yet to be seen.
More importantly, the play pushed Wembanyama to the brink of suspension. 
Wembanyama’s emotions and violent physicality have gotten him in trouble.

The New York Mets expect to get their starting shortstop back in the lineup within the next couple of weeks.
Francisco Lindor faced live pitching and played two innings at shortstop during a simulated game on Friday. Based on that progress, Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns told reporters that he expects Lindor to rejoin the everyday lineup by the end of June.
Lindor, 32, took at-bats against a pitcher from the Mets’ high Single-A Brooklyn affiliate. The Mets did not share the results of those at-bats, but did say that Lindor did not run the bases on contact.

The North Carolina Tar Heels baseball team heads to Omaha for the 13th time in school history, facing the Ole Miss Rebels in the College World Series game on Friday night.

Patrick Mahomes just reset the entire NFL quarterback market again. 
According to ESPN insiders Adam Schefter, the Chiefs and Mahomes agreed to a reworked contract extension through the 2033 season worth $504.75 million total — the first NFL deal ever valued at more than half a billion dollars.

The Ohio State basketball schedule continues to take shape for this coming season with news of a home-and-home series with an SEC school on Friday. According to Rocco Miller of The Field of 68, the Buckeyes and Commodores have agreed to play over the next two seasons, with the game this year taking place in Columbus on Nov. 24.
Ohio State and Vanderbilt have only played each other twice throughout history, with Vandy getting the best of the Buckeyes both in 1988 and 1989. In other words, it’s been a very long time since the two have done battle.

Think the U.S. isn’t a favorite to lift the trophy on July 19? A look back through the tournament’s history will make you think again.

Ernie Johnson has seen many iconic moments in 34 years as host of “Inside the NBA.”
However, nothing might top doing the postgame show Wednesday night from center court at Madison Square Garden after the New York Knicks made the greatest comeback in NBA Finals history to beat the San Antonio Spurs in Game 4.
“That’s the best. None of the fans are leaving. They just want to soak this whole thing in. It was like a college atmosphere. And then to do the show right there with that energy going on, that’s why you do it,” Johnson said.
