With that line of thinking came one common belief — George was not provided proper space to land. Video replay supports that claim, as George jumped to block James Harden’s shot in the fourth quarter and crashed the ground in what seemed like an instant. Those within USA Basketball are intimately involved with George’s injury. They were in the arena when he was hurt and visited the hospital as his recovery started....
The World Anti-Doping Agency on Tuesday revealed it had been hacked by a Russian cyber espionage group going by the name of Tsar Team (APT28) — also known as Fancy Bear. Biles, a four-time gold medalist in Rio, as well as Serena and Venus Williams were some of the notable athletes whose information was leaked by the group. One of the hacked documents showed Biles had tested positive for methylphenidate, also often known as Ritalin....
Born in Germany but having qualified for the United States through his American father, Boyd knows it will take more than a few additional sessions to guarantee a spot in Jurgen Klinsmann’s U.S. squad at the upcoming World Cup. But if those extra minutes result in a few extra goals for Boyd with Rapid, that could prove the difference. “There are a lot of good strikers up front for the national team now....

The Americans may have ended eight points short of the world record score of 137 in the 1994 World Championship final and the Serbs can also be proud of a display which could possibly have given them the title against any other team in the world, but nobody can question the merit of the win. Many have said this American side is not as good as other ‘Dream Teams’ of recent years and the US came to Spain missing some star names such as Kevin Durant, but the fact is they have rarely looked in any trouble en-route to their title, winning all nine of the games they have played over the past fortnight and with almost insulting margins of victory in the knockout stages....
It’s where the precocious young sprinter became an international sensation at the 2008 Olympic Games, sprinting to three gold medals — each in world record time — with a swagger and persona track and field had never seen before. PHOTOS: Bolt, other world-record holders, in the act | LIAO: Give Gatlin this one At his best, Bolt is a spectacle to see. While it takes time for his 6-5 frame to unwind from the blocks, Bolt’s long strides are both elegant and efficient, allowing him the ability to streak away from his competitors....
The person who wins the 100 meters at the Olympic Games is generally accorded the “fastest man” title, and Bolt has owned it uninterrupted through three Olympiads. He has done it as a prodigy, at 21 years old at Beijing 2008. He has done it at his peak, with his wheels still spinning and his command of the sport growing, at London 2012.

That angst hasn’t carried itself over to the U.S. players, who have displayed a quiet confidence all week heading into a match with so much on the line. At least part of that confidence could stem from the fact that the U.S. boasts an impressive track record against Panama in big matches — a track record of victories that has kept Panama’s current crop of veterans from tasting glory on multiple occasions....
The U.S. has not played La Celeste in 17 years and a lot has changed since then. Oscar Tabarez began his second stint in charge of Uruguay three years later and has since molded the South Americans into one of the most consistent teams in world soccer. La Celeste finished fourth at the 2010 World Cup, reached the round of 16 four years later and the quarterfinals in Russia last year....
The No. 1-ranked USWNT, the defending World Cup champion, is the favorite entering the match with its star-studded roster. No. 8-ranked Canada hasn’t defeated the USA in any match, competitive or friendly, in 20 years. But when the neighboring countries play in major tournaments, you could never tell that the all-time series was that lopsided. They’ve faced each other twice in Olympic knockout matches in Beijing 2008 (quarterfinals) and London 2012 (semifinals), and both matches needed extra time, with the USA prevailing in each instance....
The two North American heavyweights will clash in the continental championship match, with each side looking to hoist the trophy and earn a guaranteed place in the Paris Games. The loser will be relegated to the Olympics playoff match at a later date, requiring 90 more minutes to earn a berth against Jamaica, which claimed third place. The two squads come into the title bout with very similar narratives. Both teams are looking to usher in a younger generation of talent, but still rely on strikers from the old guard to drive them forward....

A majority of the respondents who said they planned to get the shot as soon as possible have now received at least one dose of COVID-19 vaccine....
Just a few months later, after becoming a regular and putting in consistently outstanding performances in La Liga, it now looks very much like Valencia got the better end of the deal. “He’s been an overwhelming success. I’d go as far as to say he’s not only been Valencia’s best signing, but one of the best signings in the whole of La Liga last summer,” says journalist and Spanish football expert David Cartlidge....
