While most of the attention went to Atlanta Hawks’ Zaccharie Risacher and Los Angeles Lakers’ Bronny James after the draft, Reed Sheppard changed all of that once Summer League was done. As a result, NBA executives are picking him to be the likely player who’ll come out on top of his draft class. Sheppard’s ascent in the NBA with the Rockets appears boundless, marked by his stellar performance in the NBA Summer League. Averaging an impressive 20 points and 5.3 assists per game, his standout display earned him a spot on the All-Summer League First Team, igniting a wave of excitement around the young sharpshooter. Despite…

The Chicago Fire crashed out of the 2024 Leagues Cup rather unceremoniously, losing 3-1 to Liga MX side Deportivo Toluca on Thursday. Together with an earlier 2-1 defeat away to Sporting Kansas City, this meant that the Fire finished bottom of their group in the continental tournament. The outcome shouldn’t be surprising, perhaps, when considering the lineups rolled out by manager Frank Klopas. Superstar striker Hugo Cuypers did not spend a minute on the pitch, reserve goalkeeper Spencer Richey played both matches in full, and several second team players were given playing time in the Leagues Cup. The tournament came…

Rioters set fire and broke into hotels used to shelter asylum seekers in northern England on Sunday, as the country grapples with the worst social unrest it has seen in years. The violence was triggered by the stabbing of three young girls in Southport, northwest England, earlier in the week. The far right has seized on and spread a wave of disinformation, including false claims the attacker was an immigrant, to mobilize anti-Muslim and anti-immigrant protests. Police say the suspect was born in Britain. Footage geolocated by CNN shows protesters on Sunday vandalizing and setting ablaze two Holiday Inns in northern…

The New York Mets had themselves quite a busy week in the lead-up to the trade deadline. They made plenty of moves, but one that could make the most impact is their acquisition of starting pitcher Paul Blackburn from the Oakland Athletics. Trading for Blackburn shows that the Mets are attempting to bolster a pitching staff that has not quite gotten the job done on a consistent basis outside of Sean Manaea and Luis Severino. Blackburn isn’t what someone would call a top of the rotation starter. He projects as more of a back-end, veteran piece to round out the rotation, so it’s not…
