After falling to No. 12 Arizona 78-73 on Friday night in Durham, the Duke basketball team’s prospects of obtaining the twin sons of 2001 Blue Devil national champion and two-time NBA All-Star Carlos Boozer are probably not that bad. However, if the No. 2 Blue Devils had outscored the Wildcats in the closing moments, that recollection from Cameron Indoor Stadium would have created a more positive impression for the rest of this weekend’s official visits from Cayden and Cameron Boozer, two five-star seniors from Columbus High School (Fla.). It may have given them a wonderful, lifelong experience. Adding to the…

Mark Robins has explained Coventry City’s transfer stance on Luke McNally and Michael Rose ahead of their first return to the CBS Arena. The former Sky Blues centre-halves have been partnered together for the first time at Stoke City to good effect in the last four games when they’ve helped Alex Neil’s men secure ten points from a possible 12 to lift the Potters from fourth bottom in the Championship to 13th. Rose left Coventry on a free transfer last summer when his contract expired and made a permanent switch to the Bet365 Stadium, while McNally – who enjoyed an outstanding second half season loan from…

Jimmy Butler missed the Miami Heat’s win over the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday to deal with a family matter. For the same reason, his availability for the Heat’s Sunday matchup against the San Antonio Spurs had been up in the air.

The Heat performed well despite the absence of their leader, defeating Atlanta on the road to extend their winning streak to four. Bam Adebayo led the way for the squad, filling the stat sheet with 26 points, 17 rebounds, four assists, two steals and two blocks.…
Clemson Football put in their best effort of the season against Notre Dame, and it yielded their best outcome yet. The defense was outstanding against the Irish, but the eye-popping statistic was provided by Phil Mafah. With usual starting running back Will Shipley sidelined in concussion protocol, Mafah got the start and made the most of it. He rushed for 186 yards on 36 carries with two touchdowns. He averaged 5.2 yards per carry and had a long of 41 yards. There has been a debate among Clemson fans about which running back is “better” for a couple of seasons…

When UNC needed it most, the star quarterback stepped in and ignited his late-game magicJust as coach Mack Brown thought. Brown was confident Drake Maye would find a way. With 41 seconds remaining in regulation Saturday night, the Tar Heels trailed Duke by three points. Brown said his belief was such in that dire situation, he suspected Maye and the UNC offense would drive down the field and score a touchdown to win the game. Maye responded by moving Carolina in position to set up Noah Burnette’s 43-yard field goal as the final seconds of regulation expired. Two overtime periods later at…
We have finally reached my least favorite week of the year and it has nothing to do with the NFL. The first week after turning the clock back is always a nightmare and that’s mostly because I have a toddler who is now waking up at 5:30 a.m. If I get all my picks wrong this week, that’s why. The government needs to ban time changes and/or clocks. I’m going to have to talk to my toddler about clock management, and to be honest, someone probably also needs to have that conversation with the Cowboys because their clock management was pretty ugly near…
Coventry halted their four-match losing run with a 0-0 Sky Bet Championship draw against Stoke. The Sky Blues had been on a miserable run which culminated in a 3-2 loss against Preston last time out, but could have taken all three points as Ellis Simms hit the post in the first half. Stoke left the West Midlands with their own unbeaten run intact as their second stalemate in succession left them six unbeaten. Simms came closest to giving Coventry a much-needed three points when Jake Bidwell hung up an inviting cross to the back post which the former Everton man…
