The Boston Celtics forward could go straight home on Wednesday. Tatum followed up his historically bad shooting performance by scoring 23 points, and Kemba Walker had 25 to help the Celtics overcome 44 points from Bradley Beal and beat Washington 140-133 for Boston’s ninth straight victory. Tatum was 1 for 18 in the victory over Dallas on Monday and then posted on Instagram a video of himself back at the team’s practice facility, saying, “1-18 gotta be able to laugh at ya self sometime....

Without Kyrie Irving (knee), Jaylen Brown (concussion) and Marcus Smart (thumb), the Celtics beat the Trail Blazers 105-100. Just one game removed from their dramatic last-minute come-from-behind victory over the Thunder earlier this week, Marcus Morris again led the way with 30 points on nine-of-13 shooting including five of six from beyond the arc. “I thought we played really well, especially when the game was on the line,” head coach Brad Stevens told reporters after the game....

Also, a source told SN that nothing was brewing on oft-discussed point guard Rajon Rondo. Celtics president Danny Ainge would prefer to trade the Clippers’ 2015 first-rounder, the pick the team obtained as compensation for allowing LA to sign coach Doc Rivers — the Clippers are likely to be a good team next season, which would lessen the value of the pick. The Rockets would prefer to have a pick in the loaded 2014 NBA Draft....

Trailing for most of the night, they found their rhythm in the fourth quarter, outscoring the Thunder 37-26 to extend their win streak to seven games. After a quiet first half, Marcus Smart came to life when the Celtics needed it most, scoring 20 of his 22 points in the second half — one of six Boston players to finish in double figures. Jayson Tatum led the charge with 27 points, 10 rebounds, and three steals, despite shooting just 1-of-9 from the 3-point line, while Jaylen Brown added 26 points, six rebounds, and six assists....

President Joe Biden and his administration are planning to draw down all troops in Afghanistan by September 11, and previously suggested earlier this month that U.S. combat forces in Iraq would be redeployed somewhere else in the near future. Last January, Iraq’s parliament voted to expel U.S. troops from the country after former President Donald Trump ordered the assassination of Iranian military leader Qassem Soleimani—which also resulted in the death of Iraqi military commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis on the road from the Baghdad airport....

Puel took the Algeria international off his usual right flank to play behind Jamie Vardy in the Foxes’ 2-0 win over Everton on Sunday. Having provided an assist for the Foxes’ opening goal to crown an impressive outing, the former Southampton handler disclosed that playing Mahrez behind the target man frees him up to wreak havoc on oppositions’ defence. “We spoke about football and it was the same on Saturday,” Puel told Leicester Mercury....

The concept car can switch colors with directions from the user, possibly via an app or a dashboard console. Last year, the company announced something similar. But the concept could only switch limited panels on the body between three colors. BMW has made remarkable progress since then. BMW’s i Vision Dee can change its color appearance on the move, a potentially lucrative tech for the automobile industry. This year’s concept uses E Ink technology, which allows users to alter between colors....

No one could have imagined the impact Diego Costa would have on Chelsea and the Premier League. We had sat and watched him from afar in La Liga and wondered if he would be able to cope with the pace and power of our game here. We shouldn’t have wondered as he was quite simply a revelation. It was just a shame that injury and suspension forced him to miss a few games and a run at the Premier League Golden Boot which was eventually won by Sergio Aguero....

According to the Telegraph, Fabregas spent a couple of days at the Gunners’ training ground working with former teammate Wilshere, who is now the Arsenal U18s manager. Wilshere retired from football in July 2022 and was handed a job at Arsenal just four days after his retirement. Fabregas has now joined his once ex-team-mate as he takes baby steps toward his dream of becoming a full-time manager one day....

Ken Griffey Jr. took the title in 1998 and 1999. With a serious, determined look on his face the whole time, Cespedes finished with 28 homers. That was four fewer than last year, when he beat Washington’s Bryce Harper 9-8 in the final round. Cespedes saved his best for last, a 452-foot blast to the third deck above left field that officially measured as the longest of the night....

So, when a conference room glass door of Paramount’s Network’s Downtown Manhattan, New York offices slowly slid open Tuesday, Sonnen proceeded to press and assault Emelianenko … with questions. MORE: Fedor Emelianenko vs. Chael Sonnen to headline Bellator 208 “Have you met [Russian wrestling legend and three-time Olympic gold medalist Aleksandr] Karelin?” Sonnen politely hijacked Sporting News’s interview with Emelianenko to ask his opponent out of pure curiosity. “Yes, I met him many times,” Emelianenko replied through a translator....

But as witches’ brews go, this is all pretty thin gruel. The true security nightmare is a nuclear weapon locked in a trunk in the parking lot at Washington’s Union Station. Even a crude atomic bomb could level buildings for miles around ground zero. The resulting fireball would radiate at the speed of sound, incinerating every bit of steel, concrete and human flesh in its path and igniting a holocaust that would make Dresden look like a birthday candle....

Episode 8, “GUNFIRE” of Chainsaw Man starts relatively slow with Denji and Himeno’s awkward night, but by the midpoint of the episode, a mysterious group with firearms targets all the Devil Hunter’s within Public Safety.

In the knockout stages, the English club dominated Dortmund. A result which no one expected, especially considering the great form of BVB at that time. In the quarters, Manchester City awaited, and were again knocked out by Spurs in a thrilling second leg encounter, where Pochettino outsmarted his opponent, Pep Guardiola. Ajax Amsterdam might even be a bigger surprise. The young team’s journey started in the qualifiers, where they were able to win against Graz, Lüttich, and Kiew....

Mauricio Pochettino’s side looked down and out when Hakim Ziyech put Ajax 2-0 up, and 3-0 ahead on aggregate, midway through the first half at Johan Cruijff ArenA, following Matthijs de Ligt’s early goal. But Lucas stepped up, scoring twice in the space of four minutes before incredibly slotting home to make it 3-2 the sixth minute of added time to ensure Tottenham would progress on away goals, and they will now meet Liverpool on June 1....

The usual suspects, such as Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, and Barcelona all registered convincing wins, but it Liverpool who stole the limelight with a thumping win against their domestic foes, and the Premier League leaders, Manchester City.

With 3 away goals in their pocket, it looks like a smooth sailing for Los Blancos at the moment....

Top-scorer Cavani, who has 19 league goals to his name this season, and midfielder Pastore failed to return to training on time ahead of a busy week that sees PSG face Rennes in the Coupe de France on Sunday before Wednesday’s Coupe de la Ligue tie with Amiens.
