If that's the case, the Suns will have just five more games until the playoffs start.

Saturday Indiana at Detroit, 7:00 p.m. Chicago at Houston, 8:00 p.m. NBA – Suns’ Durant out with ankle injury, re-evaluated in 3 weeks The Phoenix Suns say Kevin Durant has a left ankle sprain after slipping on the floor during pregame warmups on Wednesday and will be re-evaluated in three weeks. The hope was the 34-year-old wouldn’t miss much time because of the unlucky mishap, but now it appears he’ll be out until April. If that’s the case, the Suns will have just five more games until the playoffs start. Durant has played in just three games — all on the road — since the blockbuster deal in February that sent Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder, four first-round picks and other draft compensation to the Brooklyn Nets.

A second ex-executive was acquitted. A Brooklyn federal jury delivered its verdict Thursday. Hernan Lopez was convicted. Carlos Martinez was acquitted. Prosecutors have said the case bared the corruption of international soccer. Defense lawyers say the former Fox execs were framed by an admitted criminal who was trying to minimize his own punishment. New York-based Fox Corp. wasn’t charged in the case and has denied any involvement in the bribery scandal. Tennis – Andy Murray pulls out another 3-set victory at Indian Wells Andy Murray grabbed the last three games to come back and beat Tomas Martin Etcheverry 6-7 (5), 6-1, 6-4 across more than three hours in the first round of the BNP Paribas Open.

The Sanderson Farms Championship will be played this week at the Country Club of Jackson, and who better to discuss the field and the tournament than Randy Watkins, who once finished fifth in the tournament and then helped save it when it was being played at Annandale and was sponsorless. Sam Burns is the clear favorite but there are several Mississippians in the field who could win it. We also discuss big football games at Oxford and Starkville.

It was a great week for the podcast as Ryan had the winner of WGC Matchplay in Scottie Scheffler at 16/1 that win in Austin takes Scheffler to the summit of World Golf becoming the new World Number 1 Golfer after winning 3 of his past 5 events on PGA Tour. Jamie had Kevin Kisner finish Runner up at 66/1 along with another T2nd in Dominican Republic with 40/1 Alex Smalley at Corales Puntacana where Chad Ramey gained his maiden PGA Tour title. On the DP World Tour in Qatar it was victory for the Scots as the supremely talented Scot Ewen Ferguson battled back bravely from the heartache of Kenya to win his first professional title at Qatar Masters winning at -7 in a brutal contest at the weekend in Doha. This week it is the first major of the year as the Ladies of the LPGA & LET Tours flock to Mission Hills Golf Club in Rancho Mirage, California for Chevron Championship formerly known as ANA Inspiration. Patty Tavatanakit was the winner last year at -18. Measuring just over 6,800 yards Mission Hills is an iconic venue in the Women's game with world's best such as Jin Young Ko, Inbee Park, Lexi Thompson and Annika Sorenstam all lifting this Major Championship. Craig & Ryan go through how we feel the first major will play out and we both have a consensus value pick at 20/1. On the PGA Tour we stay in Texas this week as we head to San Antonio for Valero Texas Open the last stop on Tour before The Masters next week! 7,464 yard Par 72 Greg Norman designed TPC San Antonio (Oaks Course) takes Centre stage as Jordan Spieth returns to defend his dramatic title win last year. This event throws up surprises so don't be surprised to see a triple figure winner win this week. Be sure to follow us on Twitter @ChasingPars_Pod, @ThomsonGolf94, @GolfTipster5 & @Js_GolfingTips. We would appreciate if you gave listen this week. Enjoy!

Chad was 4th in Driving Accuracy last year on the KFT, and joins the PGA Tour this season.

Ramey is a quiet guy, but opened up in this podcast with host Samantha Marks
