The 31-year-old star briefly left the Warriors’ Game 2 matchup with the Rockets in the first quarter after dislocating his finger. He returned later in the opening period and finished Golden State’s win with 20 points on 6-of-16 shooting. Warriors coach Steve Kerr said Thursday that Curry went through practice with no issues. Golden State will face the Rockets in Game 3 on Saturday in Houston. “It’s probably good we have a few days off,” Kerr said Thursday, via the Mercury News....

The veteran linebacker announced in a post on his Instagram account Thursday that he won’t be playing with the Lions in 2016. “What a journey it’s been Detroit!

Prior to the film’s release, Packer and business partner Rob Hardy, who pledged with Packer at Florida A&M University, were forced to digitally remove all symbols and references to Alpha Phi Alpha to comply with a legal request issued by none other than the fraternity itself.

Sterling, who was previously recorded making racial comments about Magic Johnson and others, appeared hurt in the recording obtained by RadarOnline.com as he talked with a close friend over the phone. His argument was that no one went to him to get the facts, even though his words are clearly documented. One other large bullet point: Sterling made it clear that he has no plans to sell the Clippers. “It breaks my heart that Magic Johnson, a guy that I respect so much, wouldn’t stand up and say, ‘Well let’s get the facts....

Ballmer was speaking to the press at a launch even in Israel, where he also mentioned that Microsoft’s smartphone partners could drive the company to emerge as a strong third participant in the smartphone market. Google’s Android accounted for 75% of the smartphone market in the third quarter, while Apple’s iOS managed to make up for 14.9% and RIM’s BlackBerry accounted for 4.3% of the market. During this period, Windows Phone users accounted for a mere 2% of the share....

What went wrong for Ismael at West Bromwich Albion? The French manager’s first season at the Hawthorns could not have gotten off to a better start as they stayed unbeaten for ten games. Their first defeat in the league came against Stoke City in the first week of October. Things subsequently unraveled for Ismael’s men. A couple of games later, they visited Swansea City. Despite taking the lead as early as the first minute of the game, the Baggies dropped all three points after Jamie Patterson slammed the winner for the hosts in the 84th minute....

Who he is: It seemed like a sure thing in the late 1980s that Steve Garvey would eventually be in the Hall of Fame. A Sporting News poll of managers in 1986 named the longtime Dodgers and Padres first baseman as one of 20 players who’d already done enough for induction. Sixteen of these players are now enshrined. Garvey peaked in 1995 at 42.6 percent of the writers’ vote for Cooperstown, short of the necessary 75 percent....

Nash recently posted an Instagram video – one that has since been deleted – of him hitting a golf ball at a driving range, sparking fan criticism and backlash, and he used the letter to clear the air. “There is an incredible difference between this game and swinging a golf club, hiking, even hitting a tennis ball or playing basketball at the park. Once you’re asked to accelerate and decelerate with Steph Curry and Kyrie Irving it is a completely different demand....

The “Head Ball Coach” made many enemies with his saucy jabs while leading the Florida and South Carolina football programs, including his take that Florida State was really known as “Free Shoes University,” or his snipe at Tennessee that “you can’t spell Citrus without UT.” MORE: What to watch Saturday | Georgia gets four-star CB commit Spurrier divulged which of his zingers was his favorite while meeting with media ahead of the Orange and White game at Tennessee on Friday....

Smith has also voiced support for out of form all-rounder Glenn Maxwell, who has managed only 9 runs in the last 5 matches. He has managed 0 and 3 in the two matches this series. “I know Glenn Maxwell’s form has been spoken about because he’s been a bit short of runs in one-day cricket, but he was unlucky against the Proteas,” Smith wrote in his column for cricket.com.au ....

Ernest Cline’s 2011 novel Ready Player One is a love letter to the pop culture of the last couple of decades of the 20th century, packed to bursting with references to everything from Ghostbusters and Star Wars to The Breakfast Club and Betamax. It’s a story obsessed with both the past and future of video gaming, set in a world where much of the world has retreated into virtual reality....

While reading off a sheet, no less. Sounds as though he tried to do it in Harry Caray voice, but because it’s Sting, it still came out golden. One quibble: A quartet? Mike Ditka didn’t need backup singers (OK, maybe he could have used ’em.)

Stoke City are currently 14th in the league, five points behind their opponents. Michael O’Neill’s side have been in inconsistent form of late, having only won three of their last five games.

After a terrible run of results, Mark Warburton’s side finally picked up a win against Derby County last time out....

And WM 32 will be held in Austin’s native land, Texas, at the Cowboys Stadium. If WWE does manage to book him for a return on the night, it surely will be one of the most epic Wrestlemania event....

The rush of support for Bernard’s sentence to be commuted has gained national attention in part due to Kim Kardashian West publicly supporting Bernard in recent weeks, as well as Senator Richard Durbin of Illinois and Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey making public pleas to stop the execution. The case has also also drawn much attention by opening a discussion into the fairness of sentencing for young people. Brandon Bernard, now 40, was 18 years old and part of a group of five people involved in a robbery plot in June 1999 that resulted in two gruesome murders....

Dr. Stella Immanuel said in a viral video shared by Trump and his eldest son that the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine was a “cure for COVID,” prompting several social media platforms to remove copies of the video for violating their misinformation policies.
