NBA clears Kings of tanking allegations after late foul on Seth Curry vs. Warriors

The NBA found no evidence that Sacramento Kings coach Doug Christie intentionally attempted to tank by ordering a late foul on Seth Curry in a 110-105 loss to the Warriors; the move was intended to preserve a timeout and set up a next play, but the league concluded there was no intent to influence the outcome. The incident adds to the ongoing debate about tanking and comes as the NBA considers changes to its lottery system, though Sacramento has not appeared to be a tanking threat recently.

Talent drought defines the Raiders’ ongoing slump

Raiders’ struggles are attributed to a chronic lack of talent across the roster, a revolving door of coaches, and shaky personnel moves, with only Maxx Crosby and Brock Bowers standing out; even with the No. 1 pick in 2026 and a splashy free-agent haul, the franchise needs upgrades at the line, defense, and receivers to compete in a tough AFC West.

LaFleur Signals a Fresh Start in Year 8 with a Sharper Packers Plan

Green Bay head coach Matt LaFleur, entering his eighth season and on a contract extension, says he’s rebooting the Packers’ offense as if Year 1 while sharpening focus on closing out games after last year’s late leads. He praised QB Jordan Love, added veterans Javon Hargrave and Zaire Franklin for leadership, and stressed clearer roles and stronger communication. A new special-teams coordinator, Cam Achord, is in place, and LaFleur highlighted Jonathan Gannon’s head-coaching experience as a guide for defense as the team aims for a deeper playoff run in 2026.

Donovan Could Step Away From Bulls After Tough Season

With the Bulls at 29-42 and 12th in the Eastern Conference, there is growing momentum that Billy Donovan could step away from coaching after this season, potentially taking a year off to reassess. The Bulls have struggled to maximize talent under GM Arturas Karnisovas, Donovan has endured personal losses, and while he has a strong coaching résumé, Chicago has only one playoff appearance in his six seasons.

Fresh Faces, Steady Hands: A Modern Guide to the 2026 NCAA Men’s Tournament

Sports Illustrated’s Forde Minutes previews the 2026 NCAA men’s tournament by weighing fresh freshmen-led teams against veteran squads, highlighting breakout newcomers (Duke’s Cameron Boozer; Arizona’s Brayden Burries and Koa Peat; Arkansas’ Darius Acuff Jr.; Illinois’ Keaton Wagler; BYU’s AJ Dybantsa; Kansas’ Darryn Peterson; Tennessee’s Nate Ament; Louisville’s Mikel Brown Jr.) and arguing that five freshmen-led teams could win it (Duke, Arizona, Houston, Arkansas, Illinois). It also flags experienced powerhouses (Gonzaga, Iowa State, UCLA, Purdue, Vanderbilt, Utah State) and coaches under pressure (Scheyer, Lloyd, Gard, Calipari, Pitino, Hoiberg), plus notable mid-major veterans (Jacobson, Sendek, Groce, Cross, Richman). The piece covers Big Ten drought context and bracket dynamics across states, ending with a light note on a recommended Indianapolis spot for fans.

Syracuse slips at home as Pitt exposes recurring issues

Syracuse fell to Pittsburgh at home, continuing a pattern of coaching and defensive lapses, uneven guard play, and a thin bench. With starters underperforming and the bench outscored in crunch time, the Orange missed a chance to salvage the game, and speculation about potential coaching changes or athletic director decisions adds a sense of urgency as ACC play presses on.

Packers' special-teams coordinator hunt narrows to veteran retreads

Packers' special-teams coordinator hunt narrows to veteran retreads

With Rich Bisaccia out, Green Bay’s search for a new special-teams coordinator faces a thin market: nine former NFL ST coordinators have already found new roles in 2025, and only two fresh faces exist (Byron Storer and Anthony Levine). Among the available 2024–25 candidates, Matthew Smiley has the strongest five-year DVOA track record (14.7), but he’s been out of the league since 2024; the rest range from middling to underwhelming. The Packers are likely stuck with veteran retreads late in the offseason, rather than finding a standout replacement.
