Tuscaloosa, AL

Alabama has suspended freshman defensive back Tony Mitchell following his arrest last week in Florida that resulted in drug and weapon charges. Mitchell, who is facing a charge of marijuana possession with the intent to sell and/or deliver, was driving a car with another man, Christopher Lewis, as the passenger when police detected the "odor of burnt marijuana" at a traffic stop, according to the Holmes County (Fla.) Sheriff's Office.

Longtime Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is expected to suit up for a different team this fall.  Elliott has been released by the Cowboys due to his $16.72 million cap hit for the 2023 season. It was a tough decision for the franchise considering all that he has accomplished in ...

Denver, CO

The Denver Broncos didn’t envision a 5-12 season and last-place finish in the AFC West when they signed quarterback Russell Wilson to a massive new contract. But that’s exactly what happened. The Broncos fired former coach Nathaniel Hackett and hired former New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton to right the ship. Payton’s first order of Read more...

Conley racked up 24 points (6-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 9-9 FT), four rebounds, 11 assists, one block and two steals over 32 minutes during Monday's 140-134 win over New York. Conley stepped up for the short-handed Timberwolves, delivering his first double-double since arriving in Minnesota. With Anthony Edwards (ankle) on the sideline, Conley shouldered more of the offensive load, both in terms of scoring and facilitating. He has been a top 40 player over the past two weeks and with the team pushing hard for the playoffs, Conley should be able to maintain comfortable 12-team value ROS.

New York City, NY

Brunson (foot) is officially available for Saturday's game against Denver. Brunson was expected to play, barring a setback in pregame warmups, and he managed to get through the activities unscathed. He should be expected to regain his spot in the starting lineup following his three-game absence and be full-go. His return will likely knock Immanuel Quickley back to the second unit.

Knicks' Jalen Brunson: Good to go Saturday

Philadelphia, PA

Joel Embiid continued his MVP push on Saturday night with another dominant performance in the Philadelphia 76ers' 141-121 win over the Indiana Pacers. Despite sitting out the entire fourth quarter because the game was out of hand, Embiid finished with 31 points, seven rebounds and seven assists on shooting 10 of 15 from the field.

Salt Lake City, UT

Agbaji notched 16 points (6-11 FG, 4-8 3Pt), one rebound and three assists over 36 minutes during Saturday's 118-117 victory over the Celtics. Agbaji put together a sold shooting performance, which was sorely needed amid Jordan Clarkson's (finger) absence. The highly-touted Kanasas product started the past eight games with mixed results, but Saturday's effort was the best stat line of the group. The slashing sharpshooter depends on success beyond the arc to pad his scoring, and although he's only shot 32.1 percent from downtown during his starting stint, his overall 3-point percentage in his rookie season is about four points higher.

Sunday's NIT showdown between No. 3 seed Liberty and No. 2 seed Wisconsin provided an elite battle of the guards as the Badgers edged the Flames 75-71 in second-round action.

Cleveland, OH

Windler had 20 points (7-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and a block across 37 minutes in Saturday's win over Long Island. Windler tied his season-high mark in scoring, and the former Belmont standout has scored in double digits in four of his last six appearances. Windler is averaging 9.3 points and 4.6 rebounds per game across nine regular-season contests.

Evans signed with the Eagles on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Evans will help fill the hole left at safety after C.J. Gardner-Johnson left to sign with the Lions. The 27-year-old played in 15 games for the Saints last year, making four starts and registering a career-low 29 tackles (17 solo). The 2017 second-round pick may compete with Reed Blankenship for playing time and potentially a starting spot at free safety.

Kelenic was lifted from Monday's Cactus League contest versus the Brewers with a possible injury, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports. It's unclear what he's dealing with, but Kelenic was pinch-hit for in the third inning, indicating it's likely injury-related. He's been a standout this spring, batting .410 with four home runs and three stolen bases.

Martin (knee) still isn't ready for game action, but he's trying to return before the Hornets' final regular-season game April 9 versus Cleveland, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports. Martin has dealt with the lingering knee pain since training camp, suiting up for only one of the Hornets' five...

Tennessee State

Nashville, TN

Murphy-Bunting agreed Monday on a one-year contract with the Titans, Matt Moraitis of USA Today reports. Murphy-Bunting can make up to $5 million next season with Tennessee, the second stop of his career following four seasons with the Buccaneers. The cornerback appeared in 12 games in 2022, recording a career-low 31 tackles while also producing seven pass breakups, two interceptions and a forced fumble. Murphy-Bunting will step right into a prominent role in the Titans secondary and has a shot at earning himself a long-term contract with a "prove-it" deal in 2023.

Saint Louis, MO

DeJong (back) said Monday that he expects to begin the season on the injured list, Ben Frederickson of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. DeJong had been slated to return to Grapefruit League play in the designated hitter spot Tuesday, but he had a setback with his lower-back injury while fielding grounders Monday. He doesn't expect to be able to get into another spring game, so being ready for Opening Day isn't realistic. With DeJong out, the Cardinals could consider carrying Taylor Motter as a backup at shortstop behind Tommy Edman.
