Lead Stories says: Fake Foul
Did the WNBA say Caitlin Clark would get a technical foul for lifting her knee toward Alyssa Thomas during a game? No, that’s not true: The WNBA did not release such a statement immediately after the game. There are no statements on any of the WNBA official social media accounts saying Clark would get a technical foul. No credible sports or news outlets are reporting a foul for Clark.
The claim appeared in a June 24, 2026, post on X account @HUSKER_DOO_1200 (archived here).

Michigan State basketball got their superstar back for one more season, with Jeremy Fears Jr. opting not to go to the NBA Draft, but instead, play another year in East Lansing. Fears flirted with the draft process, and worked out for a plethora of teams, but ultimately decided that it was better for his career to return to East Lansing.
Fears, who most likely would have been a second-round pick, will look to play himself into the first round of the 2027 NBA Draft.

On Thursday, the Los Angeles Lakers continued to add undrafted free agents to their team. They had already signed AK Okereke, a forward from Vanderbilt University, and Peter Suder, a guard from Miami University, to two-way contracts, and they signed big man William Kyle III from Syracuse University to an Exhibit 10 deal.
Los Angeles brought on board Robbie Avila on an Exhibit 10 contract.

Christian McCaffrey had one of the best overall seasons for a running back in NFL history in 2019 during his time with the Carolina Panthers. The former No. 8 overall pick in 2017 led the NFL with 2,392 total yards and 19 total touchdowns on 403 touches, becoming just the third running back with 1,000 rushing yards and 1,000 receiving yards in one season.
But before the season, his former position coach made sure McCaffrey knew which area of the game the running back was lacking.

The Netherlands’ FIFA World Cup match against Tunisia had to be stopped at the beginning of the second half due to an insufficient number of players on the field. Ronald Koeman’s team, up 2-0 at halftime, returned to the pitch for the restart, with Tunisia’s squad following behind.
However, as the countdown to kickoff began, it became apparent that Herve Renard’s team had only 10 players on the field.

Michigan basketball received a major piece of good news Thursday night.
According to college basketball insider Jon Rothstein, standout point guard Elliot Cadeau will remain with the Wolverines despite the uncertainty surrounding the program following Dusty May’s departure to the NBA.
“Elliot Cadeau is staying at Michigan, per his agent Drew Gross,” Rothstein posted on X. “Massive news for the Wolverines.”
The announcement comes at a critical time for Michigan, which is navigating a coaching transition after May accepted the head coaching job with the Dallas Mavericks.

Make room in the WNBA record books for Marina Mabrey.
In a 125-97 win for the Toronto Tempo over the Los Angeles Sparks on Thursday night, Mabrey tied the single-game scoring record with 53 points to join A’ja Wilson and Liz Cambage as the only players in league history to score that many points in one contest.
Mabrey played 32 minutes, shooting 17-of-28 from the floor, 9-of-18 from 3-point land and 10-of-12 from the free throw line. Her nine made baskets from behind the arc also ties a WNBA single-game record, knotting her up with Chelsea Gray and Rhyne Howard.

CHASKA, Minn. (AP) — Nelly Korda traded high-fives with a gaggle of young girls as she walked to the first tee to begin the Women’s PGA Championship.
Korda later realized the extent of her support when she spotted her name on the back of the customized USA soccer-style jerseys above her favorite number, 13.
“It was a cute surprise after a few holes when I noticed them,” said Korda, who shot a 2-under 70 in the first round Thursday at Hazeltine National Golf Club. “A lot of posters with, ‘Go, Nelly, go.

Jorge Chipi Vera is out of the 2026 World Cup. But he can’t say he didn’t get his money’s worth.
The Paraguyan broadcaster had his World Cup credentials revoked by FIFA earlier this week following an expletive-filled rant during his country’s match against Türkiye on Friday.
Vera was incensed after a referee Ivan Barton issued a red card to Paraguay’s Miguel Almirón in the first half.
