The second half of the regular season means little for the Los Angeles Dodgers. They’re 11.5 games ahead of the Arizona Diamondbacks in the NL West, and Shohei Ohtani seems to be cruising his way to a third consecutive NL MVP award.

It was a poor performance from all of Les Bleus’ stars, Dembélé included. He didn’t manage a single shot until the 95th minute. It’ll be a […]

In a league as volatile as the WNBA, fortunes can change quickly, especially given the monumental offseason that was 2025-26, in which two expansion teams entered the league and nearly every roster saw significant turnover.
