Additionally, star wide receiver Puka Nacua, who is on injured reserve but had his practice window activated this week, may also make his return. Several NFL insiders have expressed optimism about Nacua playing. NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero mentioned Thursday morning, “There’s now hope that Puka Nacua could play tonight.

Manager Ange Postecoglou said on Friday that Son Heung-min, 32, is likely to miss Tottenham Hotspur’s Premier League trip to Crystal Palace this weekend, meaning the squad would likely be without their captain for the second consecutive game. Son felt sore after scoring in last weekend’s triumph against West Ham United, therefore he was removed from Thursday’s Europa League match against AZ Alkmaar. Son’s hamstring injury kept him out of South Korea’s World Cup qualifying this month. Before Sunday’s game, Postecoglou told reporters, “Sonny isn’t right yet. He won’t train today because he’s still not feeling 100%.” “He’s unlikely for…
The Miami Heat’s performance on opening night against the Orlando Magic is utterly unexpected given that they didn’t make any significant changes during the NBA summer. It’s not, in fact. Except for the front office, almost everyone could see it coming from a mile away. Ironically, Pat Riley, who was dubbed the name of the Heat’s court during halftime of their season-opening crushing defeat, is in charge of that same front office. Nevertheless, ignoring the offseason, the Heat were not only awful against the Magic on opening night; they were dreadfully awful. The Heat were actually the only club that…
Given how often he’s made, the Celtics have now come to expect Payton Pritchard’s long heaves at the buzzer. Their decisive victory over the Wizards was another example of Pritchard’s unique talent, but it was too late to tell. The game’s outcome was unaffected by the shot not counting, but it was still a spectacular sight. Be aware that it would have been one of his own missed field goal tries if he had tried the shot prior to the buzzer. Pritchard’s heaves are regarded by the G-League as a missed field goal attempt for the team rather than the…
Carter-Vickers returned to training last week, but he was left out of the squad for the encounter against Aberdeen and did not accompany the team to Italy for their Champions League fixture. Another welcome return to training was Greg Taylor, who hasn’t played since before the international break. The left-back would return to action this week, according to Rodgers. Despite displaying signs of exhaustion and a severe cramp towards the end of the midweek Champions League match, Alistair Johnston, who gave an outstanding performance against Atalanta, was also in training. Although Johnston collapsed in weariness after pushing through to the…

The Chicago Bulls signed Talen Horton-Tucker to the team’s final roster spot on Friday, according to an ESPN post by Jamal Collier on “X.” The Chicago Bulls have completed their roster for the 2024–25 campaign with the addition of Talen Horton-Tucker. Before being moved to the Utah Jazz in 2022, the sixth-year guard played for the Los Angeles Lakers for his first three seasons in the league. Horton-Tucker will receive close to $2.5 million under the minimum-salary contract, but the Bulls can choose to waive it at any point before January 7, 2025. The trade was announced just one day…
