Tar Heels, Sooners Clash Again in MCWS Finals Game 2

North Carolina and Oklahoma meet in Game 2 of the Men’s College World Series finals in Omaha, with UNC sending sophomore Ryan Lynch to the mound and Oklahoma countering with freshman Xander Mercurius. Caden Glauber could enter if Lynch struggles, and UNC is 28-0 when Glauber pitches. Mercurius recently delivered a 7.1-inning, 9-strikeout outing against Georgia. Oklahoma won Game 1 9-3 to take a 1-0 series edge, and history shows four of the last 10 MCWS champions won Game 1, underscoring the stakes of Game 2 and a potential Game 3 if needed.

Wembanyama Takes Responsibility as Spurs Fall Behind 0-2 in Finals

Victor Wembanyama scored 29 points with 9 rebounds and 4 blocks in a 105-104 Game 2 loss that left the Spurs down 0-2 in the NBA Finals, after a late turnover and a missed potential winner. Wembanyama acknowledged the team’s inexperience and youth, calling them “spoiled” compared to the Knicks’ veteran-led pursuit, and suggesting the Spurs must better appreciate their Finals opportunity. With Game 3 in New York, San Antonio faces a tough hill to climb but remains hopeful about its bright, long-term championship window.

Wembanyama's late miscue seals Spurs' fate in Game 2 as Knicks go up 2-0

A new video angle shows Victor Wembanyama grabbing a defensive rebound late in Game 2 with the score tied at 104-104, then rushing a pass to an unexpecting Stephon Castle that bounced off Castle's back. Jalen Brunson read the miscue and sprinted in for a steal, helping the Knicks escape with a 105-104 win to take a 2-0 series lead. Wembanyama later acknowledged the mistake, saying, "I threw that one away," and said he would use it as motivation for the next game.

Avalanche face Game 2 without Cale Makar in West Final

Cale Makar will miss Game 2 of the Western Conference Final for the Colorado Avalanche with an upper-body injury, marking his second straight absence after Game 1. Jack Ahcan started in his place and Nick Blankenburg was a healthy scratch, with coach Jared Bednar declining further lineup decisions. Makar, a Norris Trophy finalist who had 79 points this season, remains a key factor as Vegas sticks to its game plan and Colorado looks to rebound after a 4-2 loss to try to even the series.

Cavs Collapse in NYC: Knicks Rally to Take Game 2

The Cavaliers built a strong three-quarter effort at Madison Square Garden led by Donovan Mitchell, who poured in 29 points and racked up 6 steals, and Evan Mobley anchored the defense. But a brutal fourth quarter chaos left the Cavs unable to move the ball, allowing the Knicks to surge back and steal Game 2. Mitchell’s hot stretch faded as New York seized control, Harden struggled defensively and with turnovers, and the late collapse overshadowed earlier positives from several Cavs players.
