Sixers weigh candidates as they hunt a new basketball ops chief

Bob Myers is guiding day-to-day Sixers basketball operations while the team searches for a new president of basketball operations. Insider chatter has floated several candidates, including Onsi Saleh (Hawks GM) as a top target but interview chances hinge on permission; Vince Rozman, a longtime Sixers executive now focusing on draft work; Neil Olshey, a controversial former Blazers executive; and Jameer Nelson, a rising internal candidate who could be elevated. With Morey out and the 2026 NBA Draft approaching, a hire may take time and more names could surface.

UNC’s Coaching Dilemma: Lloyd, May, or Donovan as Next Head Coach

UNC is weighing three prominent candidates—Arizona's Tommy Lloyd, Michigan's Dusty May, and Chicago Bulls coach Billy Donovan—for its next men’s basketball head coach.

New York GOP midterm crunch: cash short, bench thin, Trump in the frame

In a deeply blue New York, the GOP is grappling with fundraising shortfalls, a dearth of viable statewide contenders after Elise Stefanik’s exit, and a campaign landscape tethered to Trump as it defends a shrinking set of House battlegrounds; Bruce Blakeman leads the ticket but faces tough polling against Gov. Kathy Hochul, while several would-be rivals have abandoned races, leaving the party with a thinner bench and uncertain prospects in key districts.
