  • Wembanyama, Spurs send the West finals back to Oklahoma City for Game 7, routing the Thunder 118-91

    • AP
    • May 29, 2026

    SAN ANTONIO (AP) Victor Wembanyama had 28 points, 10 rebounds and three blocks and the San Antonio Spurs sent the Western Conference finals back to Oklahoma City for Game 7, routing the Oklahoma City Thunder 118-91 on Thursday night.

    Game 7 is Saturday night in Oklahoma City, with the winner hosting the New York Knicks on Wednesday night to open the NBA Finals.

    Wembanyama and the Spurs responded to a listless 127-114 loss in Game 5 on Tuesday night with their most energized outing of this see-saw series.

    “(Playing with desperation) just feels like it erases kind of all the little mistakes that we do that are human nature, whether it’s in the regular season or previous games,” Wembanyama said. “Just got to fight that all the time and put your backs against the wall. It feels like it’s the best opportunity to be able to play.”

    Dylan Harper had 18 points, Stephon Castle added 17 and Devin Vassell had 12 points and two thunderous blocks for San Antonio.

    Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was limited to a team-high 15 points on 6-for-18 shooting for defending champion Oklahoma City.

    “I just think all of our focus and attention was on the defensive end,” Castle said. “I don’t think scoring against them has been a problem for us. I think just our self-infliced mistakes, like turnovers and allowing them to get offensive rebounds and easy buckets is what slows us down.”

    The Thunder were scoreless for eight minutes in the third as the Spurs ran off 22 straight points to make it 92-64 with 56 seconds left in the quarter.

    “I don’t know that it was necessarily anything we did wrong,” Oklahoma City coach Mark Daigneault said. “I thought we were ready to play. I felt confident going into the game, and I felt confident at halftime. It had the makings of a road win if we could be the team that threw the punch in the third and they were the team that did that.”

    The average margin of victory has been 15.3 points, with the Spurs winning by an average of 18.3 points.

    Wembanyama has been at the forefront of all three victories.

    The 7-foot-4 star joined Hall of Famers David Robinson and Tim Duncan as the only players in franchise history with five games of 25 points and 10 rebounds in a single postseason.

    Wembanyama made his first two shots – both 3-pointers – and blocked Gilgeous-Alexander’s layup in the first 1:27 as San Antonio took a 9-2 lead.

    “I think we were consistent and we did what we needed to do,” Wembanyama said. “Trusted the game, trusted the basketball gods.”

    Wembanyama had 11 points, five rebounds an assist and a block in the opening quarter.

    The series remained physical and contentious, with the Thunder’s Chet Holmgren jawing with and bumping into Vassell after the Spurs’ wing blocked the 7-footer’s dunk attempt in the second quarter.

    Oklahoma City’s Jalen Williams returned after reinjuring his hamstring in Game 2 and missing the next three games. Williams was limited to one point on 0-for-1 shooting in 10 minutes.

    Holmgren had 10 points and 11 rebounds.

    WIN
    FanDuel. Isaiah Hartenstein has cleared this points line in 6/8 games against the Spurs this season, and 3/5 this series. The two misses were in games 1 and 3, when the Thunder big man only played 12 and 21 minutes, respectively. As OKC has figured out their defensive strategy against Victor Wembanyama, they’ve realized they’ve needed iHart on the court – in Game 5, Hartenstein saw a whopping 31 minutes. Even if that gets scaled back, what’s evident is that Hartenstein’s patented push shot from the mid-post has been a useful tool against the Spurs defense. With Wemby keeping more of a watchful eye on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Hartenstein has capitalized. Look for the Thunder big man to hit four shots tonight.

    LOSS
    With a safety net of Game 7, the Thunder do not need to force Jalen Williams to play. So if he does, he’s healthy enough to go. He scored 26 in Game 1 and 22 and 19 in the two full games he played vs. the Suns in the first round. He game one vs. the Spurs, he took 25 shots, playing 37 minutes. If he suits up tonight, he should play enough minutes to get us 13 or more points.

  • New York Liberty beat the Phoenix Mercury 84-74 boosted by 23-0 third-quarter run

    • AP
    • May 27, 2026

    NEW YORK (AP) Marine Johannes scored 21 points, Jonquel Jones added 17 points and keyed a huge run to close the third quarter as the New York Liberty beat the Phoenix Mercury 84-74 on Wednesday night.

    The game was a rematch of last season’s first-round playoff series that the Mercury won en route to reaching the WNBA Finals. Both teams are different this season as Satou Sabally came to New York from Phoenix. Coming into the game she was questionable to play because of an illness that forced her out of Monday’s game. She warmed up but was scratched an hour before tipoff.

    While Sabally was out, along with Sabrina Ionescu (back), the Liberty did welcome back Betnijah Laney-Hamilton and Leonie Fiebich. Laney-Hamilton had missed a few games for personal reasons. Fiebich was recovering from winning a Spanish league title.

    The Liberty (4-4) trailed 55-49 with 6:09 left in the third quarter when coach Chris DeMarco put Laney-Hamilton into the game. New York responded with a 23-0 run to close the quarter that included 10 points from Jones. The Mercury (2-6) had eight turnovers, including three on offensive fouls during the drought.

    New York led 72-55 heading into the final quarter and Phoenix finally ended its nearly seven-minute scoring drought with a 3-pointer in the corner from Monique Akoa Makani. The Mercury could only get within 10 in the fourth as they dropped their fourth consecutive game. It was Akoa Makani’s first game of the season as she was finishing her overseas commitments.

    Kahleah Copper scored 19 to lead Phoenix.

    The Liberty ended their three-game losing streak, which was the team’s longest since 2022.

    Johannes kept the Liberty in the game in the first half with her hot shooting. She had 15 points at the break, hitting five 3-pointers, including four in the first quarter. She finished with seven 3s.

    The Liberty led 24-22 after 10 minutes. Led by Copper, Phoenix was up 43-42 at the half.

    The teams will play each other again on Friday night.

  • Dbacks recap and news

    • Diamondbacks’ Paul Sewald: Notches 14th save

      Sewald earned the save in Wednesday’s 3-2 win over the Giants, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning.

      Sewald’s now converted his last five save chances, allowing just one run on one hit in that span (six innings). Overall, the veteran closer has logged 14 saves while posting a 3.80 ERA with a 0.75 WHIP and 24:6 K:BB across 21.1 innings this year.

    • Diamondbacks’ Michael Soroka: Up to seven wins

      Soroka (7-2) earned the win Wednesday over the Giants, allowing two runs on four hits and no walks over six innings. He struck out three.

      It was another strong outing from Soroka, who’s held opponents to two runs or fewer in each of his last five outings, posting a 1.78 ERA with 24 strikeouts and just five walks in that span (30.1 innings). Overall, Soroka’s ERA is down to 3.25 on the year with a 1.20 WHIP and 60:14 K:BB across 11 starts (61 innings). He’ll look to keep rolling in his next outing, tentatively scheduled as a tough home matchup next week with the Dodgers.

    • Diamondbacks’ Nolan Arenado: Absent from Wednesday’s lineup

      Rotowire  

      Arenado (groin) is not in the lineup for Wednesday’s contest versus the Giants.

      Arenado had to be lifted from Tuesday’s contest with right groin tightness. With a team off day looming Thursday, he’ll receive at least two days of rest. Jose Fernandez is covering third base for the Diamondbacks on Wednesday and is in line for a playing-time boost for as long as Arenado is absent from the lineup.

    • Diamondbacks’ Gabriel Moreno: Receiving afternoon off

      Rotowire  

      Moreno is out of the lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Giants.

      The Diamondbacks will give Moreno a breather for the matinee game, after he went 1-for-2 with a walk and two RBI while catching all nine innings of the team’s 7-5 win Tuesday night. Aramis Garcia will settle in behind the plate in the series finale.

  • 2026 French Open results: No. 2 seed Elena Rybakina bounced in second round by Yuliia Starodubtseva

    Rybakina becomes the highest seeded player eliminated from the French Open

    By 
    rybakina.jpg

    Getty Images

    The first round of the 2026 French Open featured a handful of major upsets, but none as ground-shaking as what happened on Wednesday in the women’s draw to start the second round when Yuliia Starodubtseva stunned No. 2 seed Elena Rybakina 3-6, 6-1, 7-6 (10-4).

    Rybakina looked in control early, but Starodubtseva flipped the script in the second set and dominated the middle portion of the match. She would go up 3-0 to open the third set but started to slip late, with the No. 2 seed managing to claw back to level footing to force a final set tiebreak to 10 points. At that point the expectation was for Rybakina to settle in and restore order, but Starodubtseva had other ideas, pouncing on sloppy mistakes from Rybakina to pull off the biggest upset thus far at Roland-Garros.

    For the match, Rybakina piled up 71 unforced errors to just 36 from the Ukrainian, which completely undid any advantage she picked up by hitting 23 winners to just 13 from Starodubtseva. She also struggled getting her first serve in, which created openings for Starodubtseva to attack and push the No. 2 onto her back foot. Starodubtseva played a controlled, smart match, seemingly recognizing her highly ranked opponent was not at her best. Typically a longer match favors the favorite, but in this case Starodubtseva was able to drag things out and demand a higher level of tennis than Rybakina was capable of producing on this day.

  • Hurricanes beat the Canadiens 4-0 to move within a victory of the Stanley Cup Final

    AP

    MONTREAL (AP) Sebastian Aho, Jordan Staal and Logan Stankoven scored in a 2:47 span late in the first period and the Carolina Hurricanes moved within a victory of the Stanley Cup Final, beating the Montreal Canadiens 4-0 on Wednesday night.

    Frederik Andersen made 18 saves for his third shutout in 12 postseason games this year to help the Hurricanes take a 3-1 lead in the Eastern Conference Final. Game 5 is Friday night in North Carolina, with the series winner facing the Vegas Golden Knights.

    “We have better,” Stankoven said. “It’s great to come out like a team like this and perform like that, but I think at this time of the year you can’t bring your ‘B’ game. You have to bring your ‘A’ game every night.”

    Nikolaj Ehlers and Shayne Gostisbehere each had two assists for the Hurricanes. They are the seventh NHL team to win six or more road games to start a postseason.

    “Definitely excited,” Gostisbehere said. “Have to take care of business.”

    Anderson and the Hurricanes are 11-1 in the first three rounds. They put it away early in Game 4 after winning the previous two games in overtime.

    The Hurricanes scored first for the fourth straight game when Aho beat Jakub Dobes with a one-timer from the right circle on a power play with 5:02 left in the first.

    Staal followed with 3:53 to go, tipping in K’Andre Miller’s centering pass. Stankoven then finished off a two-on-one with Jason Blake with 2:14 remaining in the period.

    “The game’s going to humble you,” Montreal coach Martin St. Louis said. “Whenever you get humbled, you stand tall.”

    Andrei Svechnikov had an empty-net goal in the third.

    Carolina had a 19-3 shots-on-goal advantage in the third period for a 43-18 overall edge.

    “It seemed like the only guy that showed up was Doby,” Montreal defenseman Lane Hutson said. “Wasn’t good enough. Didn’t answer the bell.”

    This is priced under -200 so I guess I can justify it. The Habs are 2-5 at home in these playoffs but can’t afford to go down 3-1. While Carolina might lead the series 2-1, Frederik Andersen has not been very strong overall with a save percentage below .830 in the three games combined. But the Canes have won the past two because they have limited Montreal to 25 total shots on goal in those. Gotta fire more on net in perhaps the home finale. I simply want the third OT game of the series. Carolina is due a playoff road loss, frankly. The Canadiens are 6-1 after a defeat in the 2026 postseason.

    The scoreline in Game 2 and Game 3 might have read 3-2 OT winner for Carolina but the games haven’t been that close. Since a rusty performance in Game 1 we’re starting to see Carolina get to their game and assert their aggressive forecheck and physicality. Montreal has generated a grand total of 25 shots on goal COMBINED the last two games and I’m not sure what they can do to change that in Game 4. Carolina has 62% of expected goal share at 5 on 5 as well meaning the only thing close this series has been the final score each of the last two games. I’m closer to Carolina in the -55/-60 range adjusting for current form so I show a decent edge

  • Diamondbacks beat Giants 3-2 for series sweep, 10th win in 11 games

    AP

    SAN FRANCISCO (AP) Mike Soroka limited San Francisco to two runs on four hits in six innings, Geraldo Perdomo broke a seventh-inning tie with a sacrifice fly and the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the San Francisco Giants 3-2 on Wednesday for a three-game sweep.

    Arizona has won five straight and 10 of 11. The Diamondbacks were 11-2 in a 13-game stretch against Colorado and San Francisco to improve to 31-24.

    The Diamondbacks also swept a three-game series against the Giants last week in Phoenix. San Francisco has lost the first six games of a season series for the first time since dropping the first seven games to San Diego in 2010.

    Soroka (7-2) gave up a two-run single to Luis Arraez with one out in the third inning. Soroka then retired the final 11 batters he faced. Paul Sewald finished for his 100th career save. He worked a three-up, three-down ninth for his 14th save this season.

    The Diamondbacks trailed 2-0 in the sixth before scoring twice off Trevor McDonald (2-2) to tie it. Adrian Del Castillo drove in a run with a single, and Ildemaro Vargas’ sacrifice fly made it 2-2.

    McDonald departed after allowing one-out singles to Tommy Troy and Ketel Marte in the seventh. Marte went 2 for 5 and extended his hitting streak to 11 games.

    Reliever Matt Gage then committed an error on Corbin Carroll’s roller between the mound and first, loading the bases. and Perdomo followed with the sacrifice fly to left, giving Arizona a 3-2 edge.

    With Willy Adames on second and one out in the eighth, Arraez hit his third single of the game, a soft liner to left-center. The relay from left fielder Ryan Waldschmidt to third baseman Jose Fernandez to catcher Aramis Garcia cut down Adames.

    Arizona RHP Zac Gallen (3-4, 4.80 ERA) was set to face RHP George Kirby (5-4, 3.54) in Seattle on Friday night. San Francisco RHP Logan Webb (2-4, 5.06) was scheduled to come off the injured list to start at Colorado on Friday night.

    WIN
    The Diamondbacks go for their second consecutive sweep over the Giants in the last 10 days. Everybody is hitting for the Diamondbacks at San Francisco, and the team has won nine of their last 10 games. They play an afternoon getaway game before heading to Seattle for Friday’s game. Mike Soroka is favored today after the last 2 days of Arizona being underdogs to the Giants. Soroka has pitched great in his last four starts, allowing only four runs. Trevor McDonald got lit up in his last start by the White Sox, allowing seven runs in 3.2 innings. I like the Diamondbacks to keep winning.

  • AZ Cardinals Notes and Recap

      • Cardinals’ Jacoby Brissett: Still not present for OTAs

        Brissett didn’t report to Arizona’s OTAs on Tuesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

        Brissett remained away from the team after already missing all of last week, which was the first week of the Cardinals‘ OTAs. The veteran quarterback is holding out in the hope of securing a restructured contract, as his current deal is worth a maximum of only $5.39 million, with just $1.5 million guaranteed. Per Weinfuss, Arizona has informed Brissett that he is the team’s starting quarterback, though he’ll obviously need to eventually join the team in order to accept that role.

    • Cardinals’ Marvin Harrison: Healthy for offseason program

      Harrison (foot) participated at Cardinals OTAs this week.

      Harrison sat out Arizona’s regular-season finale due to a foot issue that he suffered one week prior, which capped an injury-plagued second pro campaign that contained him to three appearances over the final eight games. Overall, the fourth overall pick in the 2024 Draft followed up a 62-885-8 line on 116 targets in 17 contests as a rookie by hauling in 41 of 73 passes for 608 yards and four TDs in 12 outings last year. With Kyler Murray getting released in March, Harrison will be working with one of the following QBs this fall: Jacoby Brissett (holding out for a reworked contract), newcomer Gardner Minshew or 2026 third-rounder Carson Beck.

  • Dbacks recap and news

    • Diamondbacks’ Adrian Del Castillo: Knocks homer in win

      Del Castillo went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday’s 7-5 win over the Giants.

      Del Castillo hadn’t gone yard since May 3 versus the Cubs. He hit a meager .136 over 16 games during the power drought, adding just six RBI and a 6:16 BB:K before his long ball Tuesday. For the season, the 26-year-old is hitting .191 with a .586 OPS, four homers, 19 RBI, eight runs scored and four doubles across 120 plate appearances. Del Castillo continues to play regularly versus right-handed pitchers, splitting his time between designated hitter and catcher, though he’s done nothing to challenge for a spot higher in the order.

    • Diamondbacks’ Ketel Marte: Adds insurance with homer

      Marte went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Tuesday’s 7-5 win over the Giants.

      Marte extended his hitting streak to 10 games when he took Erik Miller deep in the seventh inning. The second baseman has been scorching hot in that span, going 22-for-42 (.524) with four homers, 17 RBI and seven multi-hit efforts. The surge has him batting .273 with an .802 OPS on the year, and he’s added nine homers, 32 RBI, 34 runs scored, 11 doubles, two triples and zero stolen bases over 51 contests. Marte has made a home for himself atop Arizona’s order and is still tracking toward a quality year in run production.

    • Diamondbacks’ Paul Sewald: Allows run but converts save

      Sewald allowed one run on one hit and struck out one without walking a batter to earn the save in Tuesday’s 7-5 win over the Giants.

      Sewald served up a solo shot to Willy Adames, but the Giants never mounted a real threat to the Diamondbacks‘ lead. This is the first time all year Sewald has allowed a run while converting a save. He hasn’t been all that dominant with a 3.98 ERA, though his 0.79 WHIP and 23:6 K:BB are strong marks through 20.1 innings this year. Sewald has converted 13 of 14 save chances in 2026, and his next save will be the 100th of his career.

    • Diamondbacks’ Eduardo Rodriguez: Earns fifth win

      Rodriguez (5-1) allowed two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out six over six innings to earn the win Tuesday over the Giants.

      Rodriguez has quality starts in four of his five outings in May, and he’s earned three wins this month. He’s allowed just six runs over 33.2 innings in that span, a strong rebound after some struggles in the latter half of April. The southpaw is enjoying an impressive bounce-back campaign after two years of struggles, pitching to a 2.31 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 49:25 K:BB through 66.1 innings over 11 starts. The walk rate (3.4 BB/9) is in line with his career norms, but a career-low BABIP (.259) has allowed him to find more success than usual. Rodriguez’s next start is projected to be a tough one at home versus the Dodgers early next week.
