Wow.. What a video.

[Chicago Cubs @Cubs]

Around here, PCA means MVP.

[Nathan Zuniga @NathanZuniga_]

@BRWalkoff CLEAN SWEEP 🧹

[MLB @MLB]

40/40 club
PLATINUM Glove defense
And now NL MVP

What a season for Pete Crow-Armstrong!

[Nathan Zuniga @NathanZuniga_]

It all came to fruition. Your 2026 #MLB #MVP #PCA

[Chicago Cubs @Cubs]

are they really your friends if they don't ride for you like this?

[Jacob Zanolla @jacobzanolla]

2 hours…

[Nathan Zuniga @NathanZuniga_]

I’m so excited, I’m shaking. #MVPete

[Nathan Zuniga @NathanZuniga_]

Welp.. No reason to watch the #Bulls for the next Month and a half.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Chicago Bulls rookie Caleb Wilson is undergoing surgery for a fractured right hand and will miss four to six weeks, sources tell ESPN.

[Nathan Zuniga @NathanZuniga_]

@BullsShowYo Genuinely no reason to watch this team outside of him.

[Nathan Zuniga @NathanZuniga_]

#Mizzou’s Mark Mitchell missed practice due to stitches on his nose after colliding with a defender on a rebound in the opening minute against SIUE. He'll be evaluated ahead of Sunday's game against Marquette—getting him back at full strength is huge for the Tigers.

[Nathan Zuniga @NathanZuniga_]

@ShamsCharania Don’t think this is nearly as bad as it sounds. Last night, they held their own without Steph. They can stay afloat for a month, no doubt.

[Nathan Zuniga @NathanZuniga_]

Last night proved that even without Curry, Steve Kerr and the #Warriors’ system can still win games—especially with Yaxel Lendeborg playing at this level.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Just in on NBA Today -- Golden State star Stephen Curry expected to miss close to one month:

Two different coaches in itself stumps a players growth. At this point, you’re better off firing him. Keeping a coach that teaches bad habits will likely be more detrimental to his development🤦‍♂️

[NBACentral @TheDunkCentral]

The Sacramento Kings are hesitant to fire Doug Christie because they don’t want Darius Acuff Jr. to have three different coaches in one season, per @sam_amick

Good Morning #Chicago. Today #PCA will be the first Platinum Glove winner to also win MVP😀

[Pete Thamel @PeteThamel]

NEWS: St. Louis transfer Robbie Avila is finalizing a deal to play for TCU this year, multiple sources confirm to ESPN. The sides are “close” to finishing the deal and he's expected to head to campus this week. Avila has scored 1,990 career points and was A-10 Player of the Year last year.

[Nathan Zuniga @NathanZuniga_]

Caleb Wilson’s out for the game with a right hand injury. Hopefully it’s nothing too serious or there’s no reason to watch any #Bulls games.

[Frank Cusumano @Frank_Cusumano]

Scottie Atkinson makes it official. The star guard from Webster will be playing for Mizzou. And he already has a deal with Old Vienna

[On3 @On3]

NEW: Michigan's Kyle Whittingham on Oregon head coach Dan Lanning:

"Outstanding football coach, defensive-minded coach.. He really does a great job recruiting. It doesn't hurt that you have $50+ million at your disposal to, in essence, outbid everybody. Not everybody, but a lot of people. But that's not his fault. That's a credit. I mean, that's a credit to their program and their dedication and desire to win and the support they have."

National media taking notice of #Mizzou’s Jason Crowe Jr.’s playmaking. After Dennis Gates challenged him to completely cut out the pick-and-roll this summer to build his floor vision, that confidence in his secondary playmaking is already on display.🐯

[SLAM @SLAMonline]

The scoring gets the attention. The playmaking deserves some, too. Jason Crowe Jr. is embracing the opportunity to show he can be a true floor general at Mizzou.

A flamethrower on his left hand, a vision of success in his eyes and all of the Tigers’ faithful behind him, Jason Crowe Jr. is ready to shine. Mizzou's star freshman covers SLAMU.
