    LAS VEGAS – Malaki Branham scored 23 points as the Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the New Orleans Pelicans, 82-77, at Cox Pavilion in the 2026 NBA Las Vegas Summer League on Wednesday.

    The Cavaliers had to work hard to get past the Pelicans in this matchup, as they endured a slow start and needed a second-half comeback to seal the victory. Even though the Cavs held a 16-15 advantage in the first quarter, the Pelicans fought back to secure a two-point lead (33-31) at the break. 

    Both offenses struggled with efficiency in the first half, but the Cavaliers turned things around, winning the third quarter 21-16 and taking a three-point edge into the final 10 minutes. 

    After the first three quarters had 101 total points, the teams combined for 58 points in the final frame. The Cavaliers closed things out with strong free-throw shooting to get the win, outscoring New Orleans 30-28 in the last quarter.

    Riley Minix added 15 points, five rebounds and three assists. Jaxson Robinson notched 13 points and Rashaun Agee added 10 points and seven boards off the bench.

    None of the New Orleans starters scored in double digits in this loss, but Markquis Nowell led the way with a 20-point performance in 24 minutes off the bench.

    LAS VEGAS – Dominant defensive efforts in the first and fourth quarters, along with a spirited game-ending run, fueled the Phoenix Suns to a 100-88 victory over the Detroit Pistons in a 2026 NBA Summer League matchup at Thomas and Mack Center on Wednesday afternoon. 

    Impressive performances from their two most recent first-round picks played a pivotal role in the Suns’ success. The 2025 No. 10 overall pick, Khaman Maluach, scored a team-high 23 points and added a game-high 15 rebounds, while the 2026 No. 30 overall selection, Koa Peat, contributed 19 points. 

    Rasheer Fleming, a 2025 second-round pick, was next with 22 points, eight rebounds and one steal. Javonte Cooke furnished 12 points and five boards.

    The game did have a bit of a rollercoaster quality to it, as the Suns saw a 27-13 lead after one quarter whittle down to four by the start of the final period. However, Phoenix nailed down the win with an impressive 11-1 run over the final three minutes to win going away. The Suns held the Pistons to a combined 27 points in the first and fourth quarters while outscoring them in the paint, 52-36.

    Brice Williams paced the Pistons with a game-high 24 points, adding six rebounds and four assists. Isaac Jones generated an 18-point, 10-rebound double-double. 

    The Pistons return to action Friday against the Miami Heat in a consolation game, while the Suns will meet a to-be-determined opponent on Saturday in a playoff matchup.

    Jalen Slawson (20 pts, 9 reb, 3 ast, 4 blk) just stormed down the lane for a one-handed slam to cut the Timberwolves’ lead to 95-85 with 4:42 to go in the game.

    “This is just nasty,” said Prime’s Brendan Glasheen.

    “Do not get in the way,” said Prime’s Teresa Weatherspoon.

    He’s been the Pacers’ best player this summer, showing length and slashing ability at 6-foot-7, including this block earlier.

    Jaylin Williams (2 pts, 3 reb) just capped a strong first half for the Timberwolves with a steal and slam, sending them into the break with a 62-51 lead.

    “We’ve just got to get better on defense. I think we can score, no issue,” said Trey Kaufman-Renn (10 pts).

    Kaufman-Renn said it’s a “weird experience” to play against Braden Smith (5 pts, 2 reb, 3 ast), his former Purdue teammate, but “a lot of fun.”

    Minnesota’s shooting 52.8% from the field at the break, earning a 28-20 lead in points in the paint.

    Jalen Slawson (8 pts, 2 blk) and No. 58 pick Trey Kaufman-Renn (8 pts, 1 reb) are leading the scoring as the Timberwolves take a 35-27 lead over the Pacers after the first.

    We had 11 lead changes and two ties in the first quarter in this competitive battle.

    “This is really good to see the pace we’ve been having,” said Prime’s Teresa Weatherspoon. “This is good. Keep it going!”

    Braden Smith (5 pts, 2 ast) likes this shot fading to the baseline — it’s tough, but is a good weapon for a 6-foot guard as he adjusts to pro size and length.

    Indiana’s started to press, seeking to add some defensive balance.

    20-19 Pacers with 4:11 to go in the first.

    It’s a battle of intriguing guard prospects, as No. 38 pick Braden Smith, the NCAA men’s basketball all-time assist leader, faces Zyon Pullin and No. 33 pick Isaiah Evans.

    Jalen Slawson, a 6-foot-7 forward out of Furman, has been a force for Indiana in recent games, playing off Smith and the spacing around him. Keep an eye on him here.

    Información del Mundial de futbol 2026

    El duelo de las hinchas comenzó antes del inicio del partido.

    PERIODISTAActualizado:

    Por mucho que Thomas Tuchel y Lionel Scaloni intentaran enfriar los ánimos en las ruedas de prensa previas, estaba escrito que el duelo de semifinales del Mundial 2026 en el Mercedes-Benz Stadium entre Argentina e Inglaterra no sería un partido más. La histórica e intensa rivalidad deportiva —potenciada por el imborrable trasfondo social y político de la Guerra de las Malvinas en 1982— estalló en Atlanta mucho antes del pitazo inicial.

    La batalla psicológica comenzó en las gradas durante la interpretación de los himnos nacionales, donde la hinchada albiceleste, que superaba a la británica en una proporción de 3 a 1, hizo sentir su localía de manera abrumadora: al sonar los primeros acordes del ‘God Save the King‘, la marea argentina sepultó la música oficial bajo el estruendoso y clásico cántico: “Ya lo ves, ya lo ves, el que no salta es un inglés”. El himno europeo quedó completamente inaudible.

    Segundos después, los aficionados de los Three Lions intentaron tomarse la revancha respondiendo con una ensordecedora pitada al himno argentino, aunque las miles de voces sudamericanas terminaron imponiéndose con fuerza en el recinto techado. Los jugadores argentinos parecieron contagiarse del momento emotivo y se mostraron visiblemente emocionados, cantando a viva voz.

    Si en las tribunas el ambiente era una caldera, sobre el terreno de juego el termómetro no tardó nada en alcanzar el punto de ebullición. El árbitro apenas había dado la orden de salida cuando se desataron las primeras hostilidades físicas:

    En el primer minuto de juego, Leandro Paredes le dejó un recado en forma de manotazo a Jude Bellingham inmediatamente después de que el inglés soltara el balón.

    Segundos más tarde, un impacto con el brazo de Enzo Fernández sobre la cabeza de Elliot Anderson encendió la mecha de la primera gran bronca del partido. Los futbolistas de ambos bandos se enzarzaron en un tumulto en el que, cómo no, Bellingham y Paredes volvieron a quedar cara a cara intercambiando palabras de grueso calibre.

  • Lionel Scaloni y su alegría tras llegar de nuevo a la final del Mundial con Argentina: ‘Este grupo no deja de sorprenderme’

    Lionel Scaloni tomó con más calma de lo esperado la clasificación a la final de la Copa Mundial de la Fifa 2026. El técnico de Argentina se notaba tranquilo tras una nueva remontada, esta vez contra Inglaterra.

    Tras el gol de Anthony Gordon en el minuto 55, el campeón del mundo le dio la vuelta al marcador, con tantos de Enzo Fernández, a los 86, y de Lautaro Martínez, a los 90+2, ambos con sendas asistencias de su gran figura, Lionel Messi.

    El parte de victoria de Lionel Scaloni

    “Sin palabras, sin palabras. Una alegría para nuestro país, para nuestra gente. El otro día dije que este grupo no deja de sorprenderme, la verdad. Y te digo la verdad, vamos a intentar ganar, vamos a dejar todo, pero ya después de esto es muy difícil intentar que la gente entienda lo que demuestran los jugadores, es impresionante”, dijo Scaloni a DSports.

    El seleccionador argentino, que en las declaraciones previas al encuentro quiso bajar los decibeles a los antecedentes con los ingleses, en especial lo que tiene que ver con la guerra de las Malvinas, reconoció que el apoyo de los hinchas fue clave.

    “Somos únicos, de verdad, y no es arrogancia, eh. De corazón, somos únicos. Esta gente que vino nos llevó a ganar el partido, así que agradecido”, agregó el técnico.

    El reconocimiento de Scaloni a sus jugadores

    Scaloni también reconoció la gran entrega que tuvieron sus jugadores para, otra vez, remar desde atrás y conseguir la segunda final consecutiva para la albiceleste.

    “Es lo que se intenta. La camiseta lo amerita, dar es todo hasta el final. No guardarse nada. Han demostrado una vez más que lo sienten como uno más, así que contentísimos”, insistió el DT.

    Argentina jugará su séptima final de la Copa del Mundo. Fue campeón como local en 1978 y también en México 1986 y Catar 2022. Perdió las definiciones de Uruguay 1930, contra el equipo anfitrión, y dos contra Alemania, en Italia 1990 y Brasil 2014.

  • ¿Por qué la Fifa obliga a jugar el partido por el tercer puesto en el Mundial 2026? En esta oportunidad el encuentro será entre Francia e Inglaterra

    Tras cinco semanas de competencia, ya están definidos los equipos que jugarán la final del Mundial 2026 y los que se enfrentarán por el tercer y cuarto lugar.

    Las selecciones con ganas de levantar la Copa de la Fifa serán España y Argentina, mientras que los otros dos puestos son Francia e Inglaterra. 

    ‘La Albiceleste’ defenderá la corona contra ‘La Roja’ en una final inédita en East Rutherford, a las afueras de Nueva York, donde se espera que el presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, entregue el trofeo.

    A pesar de que ya están definidos los combinados para la final más esperada, hay amargura entre los aficionados y jugadores que se verán en la obligación de ganar el tercer puesto, pero ¿por qué la Fifa obliga a jugar este encuentro?

    Aunque numerosos futbolistas coinciden en que se trata de uno de los encuentros más complejos de afrontar en el plano emocional, la Fifa mantiene el partido por el tercer puesto por diversas razones. Según datos entregados por la Federación Internacional de Fútbol Asociación en su portal web oficial, la principal razón sin duda, es la económica: el equipo que se imponga y cierre el torneo en la tercera posición recibirá un premio de 30 millones de dólares, mientras que el cuarto clasificado obtendrá 28 millones.

    La diferencia económica no es especialmente significativa, pero resulta suficiente para que las federaciones cuenten con un incentivo adicional y mantengan la competitividad hasta el último partido del torneo.

    Más allá del incentivo económico, hay otro factor menos conocido por el gran público. El resultado del partido también influye en el ranking mundial de la Fifa, ya que el organismo establece una diferencia entre las selecciones que concluyen el torneo en la tercera y la cuarta posición.

    Esa posición final también tiene un impacto directo en la puntuación que cada selección obtiene en el ranking de la Federación, un aspecto que puede resultar determinante en futuros sorteos y competiciones internacionales.

    Por ello, la Fifa considera que existe un estímulo deportivo suficiente para mantener el partido por el tercer puesto dentro del calendario del Mundial.

  • Progress continues on proposed NBA Europe league

    The Magic and Grizzlies played in the 2026 NBA Berlin Game.

    The future arrives faster than we think.

    Fast-forward to fall 2027: the NBA is planning to launch the inaugural NBA Europe season.

    On opening night of the proposed new league, envision this: A team from Paris will play a team from Madrid. The following night, a team from Milan will face a team from Munich and a team from Istanbul will play a team from London.

    In all, 16 teams – 12 permanent franchises and four annual qualifiers – plan to participate in the proposed league in partnership with FIBA, basketball’s world governing organization. Bids for the 12 teams were due at the end of June, and the NBA reportedly received several bids within and exceeding the $500 million to $1 billion range in each of its 12 target cities.

    Teams are expected to come from existing basketball and soccer clubs as well as entirely new franchises.

    “We’ve had tremendous interest from multiple cities in Europe, including cities that we didn’t even ask for bids from,” NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said Tuesday at the Board of Governors meetings in Las Vegas. “We discussed with our board that we’re in the process of finalizing those bids for an initial group of cities. Many of the people who are involved in those bids, the European bidders, are actually going to be in New York for the World Cup final on Sunday.”

    “Given their presence in New York, I would say we’re hoping to wrap up some of those deals over the next several weeks, and then announcements will be forthcoming.”

    Commissioner Adam Silver addressed a variety of topics, including NBA expansion into Europe, on Tuesday in Las Vegas.

    Target cities include Athens, Greece; Barcelona, Spain; Berlin, Germany; Istanbul, Turkey; London, England; Lyon, France; Madrid, Spain; Manchester, England; Milan, Italy; Munich, Germany; Paris, France; and Rome, Italy. There are basketball-rich cities on that list, but also major European cities without permanent high-level basketball, including London, Milan and Rome.

    NBA Deputy Commissioner Mark Tatum, who is leading the project, said in a statement two weeks ago: “We’re extremely encouraged by the final bids we received for permanent franchises in the new NBA and FIBA-backed league in Europe, which reflects the tremendous interest and momentum around this project. This will be the biggest influx of capital European basketball has ever seen, and we have clear frontrunners in each of our 12 target cities including many existing basketball and football clubs. We will now work with the NBA and FIBA Boards to finalize the long-term agreements.”

    The NBA has built success with the other leagues: the WNBA, the NBA G League and the Basketball Africa League, which launched in 2021.

    The proposed new league in Europe plans to align its calendar with domestic leagues and national team competitions, allowing players to compete for their club teams in both domestic league and NBA Europe as well as for national teams in all international competitions. While providing operational, commercial and fan engagement expertise, NBA Europe wants to maintain and celebrate European basketball traditions and atmosphere.

    “I recognize there’s enormous history and tradition here in European basketball, and we want to respect those traditions,” Silver said in January 2025 at the NBA Paris Games.

    The NBA and FIBA met with EuroLeague leadership last month, and the NBA continues to pursue a constructive, collaborative and aligned outcome across the entire European ecosystem.

    Silver on Tuesday said, “We began on this path saying that our plan was to go forward regardless of where the EuroLeague stood. But it was always our hope that we would be able to create some sort of consolidation of European basketball. I remain optimistic that we are going to be able to accomplish that.”

    The NBA is bullish on the opportunity for European basketball. Basketball is one of the fastest-growing sports in Europe and the No. 2 sport behind soccer with more than 270 million fans on the continent.

    A record-71 European players were on NBA opening-night rosters for the 2025-26 season, and there is growing demand for NBA content in Europe.

    Amazon Prime Video reported for the 2025-26 season a 129% year-over-year increase in NBA viewership and the most-watched NBA Finals in Europe since 2016 – thanks in part to San Antonio Spurs forward-center and Frenchman Victor Wembanyama. Denver’s Nikola Jokić, Los Angeles Lakers’ Luka Dončić and Miami’s Giannis Antetokounmpo have also helped increase interest and popularity in Europe.

    San Antonio and New Orleans will play two regular-season games in Europe in 2027 – in Paris on Jan. 14 and Manchester on Jan. 17.

    The NBA has been moving toward this for nearly two years and sees an opportunity not only for financial growth but for increased fandom as well as the development of the entire European basketball ecosystem, including clubs, domestic leagues and grassroots.

    “There’s a tremendous opportunity with our partners, FIBA, to really change the landscape of European basketball, and that’s what we’re hoping to do,” Tatum said at a roundtable chat during All-Star Weekend in February. “I want to make it very, very clear that there’s been a lot of discussion around the format, the finances and the structure and all that. What we want to do is make European basketball as good as it can be, as strong as it can be, both from a product, competitive standpoint, as well as from a commercial standpoint.

    “We want this to be beneficial for the entire ecosystem – for the players, for the fans, and for the teams. That’s what our primary objective is here, and we’re very excited about those plans and moving forward there. The other thing I think that is so important for us and what we think this new league will do is when you create commercial opportunities for these clubs to grow, they will reinvest back in basketball, back in infrastructure development, (and) back in grassroots development.”
