The two-time reigning NBA MVP had three assists and three rebounds before his first attempt several minutes into the game and finished 14 of 18 from the field with 10 rebounds and nine assists. Rodney McGruder scored 20 for the Pistons, who have lost 12 of 13 games and have the NBA's worst record. Pacers 139, Bucks 123 – Pacers rally late, beat Eastern Conference-leading Bucks Andrew Nembhard scored 24 points and Aaron Nesmith hit six 3-pointers and finished with 22 points as the Indiana Pacers rallied late and beat the Central Division- and Eastern Conference-leading Milwaukee Bucks 139-123.

Ball averaged 13 points and 5.1 assists while shooting 42.3% on 3-pointers over 35 games last season, his first in Chicago.

She suffered the injury in the regular-season finale against Louisville and sat out the ACC Tournament. She will undergo surgery next week. The second-team Associated Press All-American led Notre Dame to the ACC regular season title. She averaged 14.3 points, 7.2 rebounds, 6.9 assists and 2.1 steals per game. The Fighting Irish (25-5) are a No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament and will host No. 14 Southern Utah (23-9) on Friday.

Lukas Reichel and Joey Anderson scored for Chicago, which has won two straight. Roman Josi scored late and Juuse Saros stopped 19 shots for Nashville, which had its three-game winning streak snapped. The Predators trail Winnipeg by four points in the race for the Western Conference's second wild-card berth. Nashville has played three fewer games than the Jets. Saturday Colorado at Detroit, 1:00 p.m. Chicago at Arizona, 10:30 p.m. NHL – Blackhawks forward Cole Guttman has shoulder surgery Chicago Blackhawks forward Cole Guttman had surgery on his right shoulder. The team says the operation was performed in Los Angeles. Team physician Michael Terry says the 23-year-old Guttman is expected “to be out of hockey activities for approximately four months.” Guttman had been a pleasant surprise for rebuilding Chicago. He made his NHL debut last month and finished the season with four goals and two assists in 14 games. NFL – Poles: Bears in better place after trade, free agency moves General manager Ryan Poles acknowledged the temptation to wait and see if the Chicago Bears could get more for the No. 1 overall selection in the draft. He couldn't pass up the chance to add a receiver when the Carolina Panthers offered DJ Moore to go with a haul of picks. The Bears addressed a big need when they agreed to send the No. 1 pick to Carolina for Moore. Besides giving quarterback Justin Fields a top-tier downfield option, they also got the No. 9 and No. 61 overall picks in 2023 plus a first-rounder in 2024 and a second-rounder in 2025. They continued to make moves once free agency started this week. But they still need help on the offensive and defensive lines. NCAAFB – Michigan RB Blake Corum says he’ll be back by fall camp Michigan All-America running back Blake Corum says his surgically repaired left knee has gotten strong enough that he has been cleared to run on an anti-gravity treadmill next week. Corum says he’s sure he will play in the season-opening game on Sept. 2 against East Carolina. He tore a meniscus and sprained a ligament in his left knee against Illinois in November. After playing sparingly against Ohio State, he sat out when the Wolverines won the Big Ten title and advanced to the College Football Playoff semifinals. Corum ran for 1,463 yards last season. Golf – PGA – Brehm makes ace for share of lead at Valspar, Spieth 1 back Ryan Brehm was having a solid round in the Valspar Championship. One swing made it a memorable round. Brehm made a hole-in-one on the 17th hole. That led to a 66 and gives Brehm a three-way share of the lead with Stephan Jaeger and Adam Schenk. Jordan Spieth is in the group one shot behind. Spieth only hit five fairways. But his putting is starting to look as good as ever. Spieth is a past winner at Innisbrook. He’s playing the tournament for the first time in five years. Two-time defending champion Sam Burns and Justin Thomas are at 69.

Lukas Reichel and Joey Anderson scored for Chicago, which has won two straight. Roman Josi scored late and Juuse Saros stopped 19 shots for Nashville, which had its three-game winning streak snapped. The Predators trail Winnipeg by four points in the race for the Western Conference's second wild-card berth. Nashville has played three fewer games than the Jets. Saturday Colorado at Detroit, 1:00 p.m. Chicago at Arizona, 10:30 p.m. NHL – Blackhawks forward Cole Guttman has shoulder surgery Chicago Blackhawks forward Cole Guttman had surgery on his right shoulder. The team says the operation was performed in Los Angeles. Team physician Michael Terry says the 23-year-old Guttman is expected “to be out of hockey activities for approximately four months.” Guttman had been a pleasant surprise for rebuilding Chicago. He made his NHL debut last month and finished the season with four goals and two assists in 14 games. NFL – Poles: Bears in better place after trade, free agency moves General manager Ryan Poles acknowledged the temptation to wait and see if the Chicago Bears could get more for the No. 1 overall selection in the draft. He couldn't pass up the chance to add a receiver when the Carolina Panthers offered DJ Moore to go with a haul of picks. The Bears addressed a big need when they agreed to send the No. 1 pick to Carolina for Moore. Besides giving quarterback Justin Fields a top-tier downfield option, they also got the No. 9 and No. 61 overall picks in 2023 plus a first-rounder in 2024 and a second-rounder in 2025. They continued to make moves once free agency started this week. But they still need help on the offensive and defensive lines. NCAAFB – Michigan RB Blake Corum says he’ll be back by fall camp Michigan All-America running back Blake Corum says his surgically repaired left knee has gotten strong enough that he has been cleared to run on an anti-gravity treadmill next week. Corum says he’s sure he will play in the season-opening game on Sept. 2 against East Carolina. He tore a meniscus and sprained a ligament in his left knee against Illinois in November. After playing sparingly against Ohio State, he sat out when the Wolverines won the Big Ten title and advanced to the College Football Playoff semifinals. Corum ran for 1,463 yards last season. Golf – PGA – Brehm makes ace for share of lead at Valspar, Spieth 1 back Ryan Brehm was having a solid round in the Valspar Championship. One swing made it a memorable round. Brehm made a hole-in-one on the 17th hole. That led to a 66 and gives Brehm a three-way share of the lead with Stephan Jaeger and Adam Schenk. Jordan Spieth is in the group one shot behind. Spieth only hit five fairways. But his putting is starting to look as good as ever. Spieth is a past winner at Innisbrook. He’s playing the tournament for the first time in five years. Two-time defending champion Sam Burns and Justin Thomas are at 69.

Lukas Reichel and Joey Anderson scored for Chicago, which has won two straight. Roman Josi scored late and Juuse Saros stopped 19 shots for Nashville, which had its three-game winning streak snapped. The Predators trail Winnipeg by four points in the race for the Western Conference's second wild-card berth. Nashville has played three fewer games than the Jets. Saturday Colorado at Detroit, 1:00 p.m. Chicago at Arizona, 10:30 p.m. NHL – Blackhawks forward Cole Guttman has shoulder surgery Chicago Blackhawks forward Cole Guttman had surgery on his right shoulder. The team says the operation was performed in Los Angeles. Team physician Michael Terry says the 23-year-old Guttman is expected “to be out of hockey activities for approximately four months.” Guttman had been a pleasant surprise for rebuilding Chicago. He made his NHL debut last month and finished the season with four goals and two assists in 14 games. NFL – Poles: Bears in better place after trade, free agency moves General manager Ryan Poles acknowledged the temptation to wait and see if the Chicago Bears could get more for the No. 1 overall selection in the draft. He couldn't pass up the chance to add a receiver when the Carolina Panthers offered DJ Moore to go with a haul of picks. The Bears addressed a big need when they agreed to send the No. 1 pick to Carolina for Moore. Besides giving quarterback Justin Fields a top-tier downfield option, they also got the No. 9 and No. 61 overall picks in 2023 plus a first-rounder in 2024 and a second-rounder in 2025. They continued to make moves once free agency started this week. But they still need help on the offensive and defensive lines. NCAAFB – Michigan RB Blake Corum says he’ll be back by fall camp Michigan All-America running back Blake Corum says his surgically repaired left knee has gotten strong enough that he has been cleared to run on an anti-gravity treadmill next week. Corum says he’s sure he will play in the season-opening game on Sept. 2 against East Carolina. He tore a meniscus and sprained a ligament in his left knee against Illinois in November. After playing sparingly against Ohio State, he sat out when the Wolverines won the Big Ten title and advanced to the College Football Playoff semifinals. Corum ran for 1,463 yards last season. Golf – PGA – Brehm makes ace for share of lead at Valspar, Spieth 1 back Ryan Brehm was having a solid round in the Valspar Championship. One swing made it a memorable round. Brehm made a hole-in-one on the 17th hole. That led to a 66 and gives Brehm a three-way share of the lead with Stephan Jaeger and Adam Schenk. Jordan Spieth is in the group one shot behind. Spieth only hit five fairways. But his putting is starting to look as good as ever. Spieth is a past winner at Innisbrook. He’s playing the tournament for the first time in five years. Two-time defending champion Sam Burns and Justin Thomas are at 69.

NBA – National Basketball Association Last Night Denver Nuggets 119, Detroit Pistons 100 Indiana Pacers 139, Milwaukee Bucks 123 Nuggets 119, Pistons 100 – Nuggets top Pistons to end skid, clinch Northwest Division Nikola Jokic deferred to teammates early before looking for his shot and finished with 30 points to help the Denver Nuggets beat the Detroit Pistons 119-100 to end a season-high four-game losing streak and clinch the Northwest Division. The two-time reigning NBA MVP had three assists and three rebounds before his first attempt several minutes into the game and finished 14 of 18 from the field with 10 rebounds and nine assists.

The team and his agency, Klutch Sports, didn’t say when the operation will take place or what the timeline for his recovery will be. It will be Ball’s third surgery on the knee in a little more than a year. Ball hasn’t played in over a year and Chicago ruled him out for the season last month. Ball averaged 13 points and 5.1 assists while shooting 42.3% on 3-pointers over 35 games last season, his first in Chicago. The Bulls have lost six in a row are 11th in the Eastern Conference at 26-33.

In this episode, we talk to Gil Beverly (Chief Marketing & Revenue Officer of the Tennessee Titans) about his time at ESPN, how he engages fans of the Titans, and what he thinks what the turning point was in his career. **More On Gil** Gil Beverly enters his second season with the Titans and his first as Senior Vice President/Chief Marketing & Revenue Officer. He joined the team in 2019 as team's Vice President of Brand, Marketing & Communications. In this new role, he will direct Ticketing, Marketing, Corporate Partnerships, Digital Communications and Community Impact. In his first season with the Titans, Beverly challenged and guided departments to find new and innovative ways to engage with fans. Highlights on the marketing side included a joint venture with Lipscomb University on the development and launching of the cartoon character "Titans Man," a series of Pop Up Shop parties to introduce new merchandise to a younger demographic and "Titans Art Rush," an art show that featured Titans-centric photos and artwork. On the ticketing side, the team introduced a digital season ticket for new fans, the "Fireball Fast Pass," and a season ticket member reward program, "The 22nd Element." The digital content team debuted several new content series, including a three-part series on Marcus Mariota that originated from Hawaii. The team's community relations outreach was also a focal point and rose to new heights in response to the tornadoes that swept through middle Tennessee in March 2020, and in July 2019, hosting a community engagement panel with players and local agencies addressing issues in the Nashville community with $450,000 distributed in grants. Before joining the Titans, Beverly worked as Vice President, Partnership Solutions for Learfield IMG-College. In this role he oversaw the development of marketing & sponsorship programs across over 200 collegiate athletics departments and other related sports properties. In doing so, he helped to create and drive partnerships with a range of Fortune 500 companies including Allstate, Nissan and State Farm, among others. Prior to his experience at Learfield, Beverly served as Vice President College Sports Marketing for ESPN. In doing so, he was involved in development of sponsorship architecture and promotional strategy around various media properties including the College Football Playoff, SEC Network, College GameDay and Tournament Challenge, among others. A native of Evanston, Ill., Beverly graduated from the undergraduate division of the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania. He then went on to secure his MBA from the Warsaw Sports Marketing Center at the University of Oregon.
