A player on the University of Memphis women’s basketball team was charged with assault Friday for allegedly punching a Bowling Green State University athlete in the handshake-line after an NIT game, police said. Jamirah Shutes and Elissa Brett got into some kind of argument after Bowling Green’s 73-60 home court victory on Thursday night, and Shutes allegedly turned physical. In a statement, Memphis called the incident “extremely unfortunate,” and Bowling Green said, “Violence is never acceptable.”BGSU women’s basketball moving on to the final 8 of the WNIT after beating Memphis — but this will steal the headlines unfortunately.

Mobley had 29 points (9-19 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), eight rebounds, six assists and a block across 40 minutes in Friday's win over Motor City. Mobley stepped his game up when the Charge needed him the most, leading the team in scoring as Cleveland secured a playoff spot. Mobley certainly contributed to that outcome, as he ended the regular season averaging 21.0 points, 8.6 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game across 22 appearances.

Edwards signed with the Bills on Thursday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports. Edwards spent the first four seasons of his career with the Rams after being selected by them in the fifth round of the 2019 Draft. The veteran guard missed significant time last season due to a concussion, appearing and starting in just four games. Now presumably past the issue, he may have the opportunity to compete for a starting job in Buffalo, and at least should bolster the team's depth across the offensive line.

Staumont was optioned to Triple-A Omaha on Saturday. Staumont is a surprising omission from the Opening Day roster. He pitched to a 1.13 ERA and 10:5 K:BB across eight innings during Cactus League play, though the walk issues are a carryover from 2022. Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports manager Matt Quatraro told Staumont that he needs to work on getting ahead in counts. It's expected he'll be with the big club again at some point in the season, though the Royals boast bullpen depth that has been lacking in recent years.

One of boxing's budding rivalries will finally be settled in the ring Saturday when super middleweights David Benavidez and Caleb Plant meet in a 12-round main event. The WBC interim super middleweight title is at stake in the headlining bout from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, with the main Plant vs. Benavidez fight card slated for a 9 p.m. ET start. The heat started between the combatants five years ago at a Las Vegas gym when Plant was involved in an altercation involving Benavidez and his brother, former welterweight contender Jose Benavidez Jr. The parties came to blows, but somehow Plant and Benavidez, despite competing in the same weight class, have never agreed to terms on an organized fight until now.

Hernandez has covered five innings without allowing an earned run over three Cactus League appearances. Hernandez has also posted a 6:1 K:BB with just three hits allowed. His workload hasn't been that heavy in the spring, but he's performed well in the limited sample. The 26-year-old right-hander looks set to fill a bullpen role as a multi-inning option this season. He struggled to a 7.39 ERA and 1.84 WHIP over 56 innings last season, but if he carry over his improved control from the spring to the regular season, he should at least enjoy a little more job security.

Miranda (shoulder) will start at third base for the Twins during Saturday's Grapefruit League game versus Atlanta, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports. Miranda has been limited to designated hitter and, more recently, first base duties while coming back from a sore right shoulder, but he's finally ready to test things out from the hot corner. He's slated to see most of his playing time at third base during the regular season, although Miranda could be eased into the position in the early going.

Kepler (hip) played in a minor-league game Thursday, MLB.com reports. Kepler was removed from Sunday's spring game against Atlanta due to left hip tightness. However, it doesn't sound like the injury is serious, and he's expected to play in another minor-league contest Friday.

Crawford is out of the lineup Friday after fouling a ball off his foot, SShannon Drayer of Seattle Sports 710 AM reports. Crawford was scheduled to hit at the top of the otrder and play shortstop, but the infielder was scratched as a precaution. The 28-year-old is considered day-to-day, but at this point there's little reason to think he won't be ready to go for the regular season.

Taylor was optioned to Triple-A Omaha on Saturday. Taylor, Josh Staumont and Richard Lovelady all fell short of making the Royals' Opening Day bullpen. After dealing with a back injury for all of 2022, Taylor will be focused on building up arm strength with Omaha to start the year, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

It's been over a week since Aaron Rodgers said that he wanted to play for the New York Jets, but despite those comments, nothing has happened on the trade front yet. With the Jets and Packers seemingly at a stalemate in trade talks, there's been a lot of debate about which team has more leverage in this situation. On one hand, the Packers are in no rush to get a deal done, which means they can hold on to Rodgers until the Jets meet their asking price. However, Joe Banner says it's actually the Jets who have the leverage.

Wiemer's chances of making the Brewers' Opening Day roster have increased following the news that Keston Hiura and Tyler Naquin won't make the team, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. He could even get a good number of starts in right field if the Brewers wind up using Brian Anderson more...

Naquin was informed Friday that he will not be part of the Opening Day roster in Milwaukee, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Naquin will now have the choice of opting out of his minor-league contract with the Brewers or accepting a role at Triple-A Nashville. The 31-year-old slashed just .207/.294/.276 over 34 plate appearances this spring in the Cactus League, but he does have a track record of being a fairly productive major-league outfielder.
