No. 2 Iowa women’s basketball pounds Wisconsin, 96-50, behind efficient offensive night | NY Sports
#nysports #iowahighschoolbasketball #womansbasketball #ncaa #ncaabasketball #usanews #bigten #bigtenbasketball #basketball Caitlin Clark posted 32 points, and Kate Martin followed with 16. The No. 2 Iowa women’s basketball team pounded the Wisconsin Badgers, 96-50, in a home bout inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena on Tuesday night. After a dominant 84-57 win over then-No. 14 Indiana on Jan. 13 that saw Caitlin Clark post 30 points and 11 assists, she tonight scored 32 on 8-of-18 from the field, 6-of-14 from deep, and a whopping 10-of-10 from the free throw line. Following her was guard Kate Martin with 16 points, five rebounds, and four assists and fellow guard Sydney Affolter with 12 on an impressive 3-of-3 from the field, 1-of-1 from deep, and 5-of-6 from the free throw line in addition to six boards and four assists. “Kate Martin continues to play like a pro,” Iowa head coach Lisa Bluder said, after which Clark added “Draft her” in allusion to the upcoming WNBA Draft. “She’s really playing well, strong, and confident, not forcing stuff … just playing her game.” The Hawkeyes had quite an efficient night on both ends of the floor. They shot 48 percent from the field, 41 percent from deep, and 88 percent from the free throw line and notched 25 assists on just 14 turnovers. And active defense against a turnover-prone Badgers offense paved the way for 42 points off of turnovers in the night. “We’re just so much harder to guard when everybody’s contributing like that,” Bluder said. “Caitlin’s always going to be our leading scorer — that’s OK. That’s alright right. But … tonight, we had 25 assists, and she had five of them. Twenty other assists by other people on this basketball team. That’s really good team basketball.” The Hawkeyes scored 38 bench points to the Badgers’ four. “I really believe this is the strongest bench we’ve had in a long time,” Bluder said. “I have so much confidence going to our bench. I really do. Hannah [Stuelke] didn’t play tonight, and we’re still able to win by 40 points. It’s pretty impressive, so I’m very, very happy with the way our bench is performing.” Iowa forward Hannah Stuelke was listed as questionable before tip, and center Sharon Goodman started in her stead to match up against Wisconsin forward and frequent block party host Serah Williams in the paint. Stuelke spent the game sitting at the end of the bench, a sleeve again on her left knee, which Bluder attributed to a tweak in practice, although she added that the Cedar Rapids local is “doing very well.” This one started a lot slower than most Hawkeye games do, the Badgers getting out to a 6-0 lead and giving the Hawkeyes a blow-for-blow battle even as a Molly Davis floater and Martin three got Iowa on the board. And with Iowa double-teaming Williams — who is leading Wisconsin with 16.5 points per game — each time the Badgers found her for a post entry, that left Badger guard Sania Copeland open for a pair of threes. Clark had one of her less efficient first quarters of the year by her standards, shooting 2-of-6 from the field and missing three of her four threes in addition to a poor turnover, but her three and layup in the final two minutes helped Iowa to a 19-15 lead moving into the second. And things got a little chippy to open the next quarter. Clark fell to the ground off-ball amid the Badgers’ physical defensive scheme and exchanged words with both the Wisconsin bench and the nearby official as Hawkeye fans voiced their discontent. “I thought Wisconsin was very physical with us; I thought they were physical in the paint when we got into the paint,” Clark said, noting it’s not quite a rivalry between the two schools. “Every game that we play people have circled on their calendar because of what we’ve been able to do over the past few years … Yeah, it was physical, but that’s just Big Ten basketball, so you better be ready for it.” Soon after, she took a hard fall to the floor upon being undercut in mid-air by Wisconsin forward Halle Douglass, but she popped up — briefly holding her elbow — to hit both free throws and then a three to force a Badger timeout. That’s not to mention Clark passed Brittney Griner to become the fourth all-time leading scorer in NCAA women’s basketball history shortly before the halfway mark of the quarter. A pair of Hawkeye steals, a Davis and-one, and a Kylie Feuerbach three later and Iowa held a comfortable double-digit lead, riding it out to the quarter’s end to enter the second half up 46-30. All smiles A pair of Clark threes from the top of the key got the Iowa offense — and the Carver crowd — awake and rolling in the third quarter, even as Wisconsin did not go away despite not quite cutting into the Hawkeye lead either. No. 2 Iowa women’s basketball pounds Wisconsin, 96-50, behind efficient offensive night
Paul George Makes History in Celtics vs Clippers | NY Sports News
#nysports #paulgeorge #bostonceltics #nba #losangelesclippers #gleague #usanews The LA Clippers were absolutely dismantled by the Boston Celtics on Saturday afternoon, but one of the only players to perform well for LA was Paul George. So much so, that he actually made a bit of history during the game. Paul George put up 21 points on 53% shooting from the field in 29 minutes. George moved up on the all-time scoring list to 101st, surpassing Bob Cousy. He now has 16,976 points and is 161 points away from passing Grant Hill to enter the top 100 all-time. It was clear that Paul George was on a heater against the Celtics, but it just didn't matter because the Clippers couldn't grab a rebound or play any defense. It was apparent that the Celtics entered LA with the game plan of shooting as many threes as possible, and the Clippers made that as easy as possible by allowing 15 offensive rebounds. Despite the struggles of the last two games, the Clippers are still a team that 9 straight games when Kawhi Leonard was playing. He's missed the last two games due to a left hip contusion that occurred when Grant Williams hip-checked him on Wednesday. It's been a quick turnaround for LA having two games in three days since then. Since they don't play until the day after Christmas, hopefully, they'll have enough time for Kawhi to return.

Thunder And Bulls Final Injury Reports And Starting Lineups | NY Sports News
On Wednesday evening, the Oklahoma City Thunder and Chicago Bulls are facing off at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois. For the game, both teams have finalized their injury reports and starting lineups. The Thunder have ruled out Jaylin Williams and Kenrich Williams. Meanwhile, former second-overall pick Lonzo Ball has been ruled out for the Bulls. The starting lineups for both teams have been announced by Underdog NBA. The Thunder are coming off a year where they were the tenth seed in the Western Conference with a 40-42 record. They beat the New Orleans Pelicans in their first play-in tournament game but lost to the Minnesota Timberwolves in the second and missed the NBA playoffs for the third straight year. This season, the Thunder will have a strong chance to finish as one of the top-eight teams in the Western Conference, as they have a lot of young talent and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has turned into a superstar. Meanwhile, the Bulls had a very disappointing year in 2023. They were the tenth seed in the Eastern Conference with a 40-42 record, and after beating the Toronto Raptors in their first play-in tournament game, they lost to the Miami Heat in the second. That said, the Bulls have a very talented roster that is led by Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan and Nikola Vucevic.

Celtics say Porzingis expected to be cleared for start of training camp in October | NY Sports News
Kristaps Porzingis saying he would miss the World Cup due to lingering plantar fasciitis was a body blow to the Latvian national team. It also raised eyebrows among Boston faithful, considering Porzingis' lengthy injury history (and any news of a 7'3" guy with a foot issue is a concern) and how much the team needs him on the court. The Celtics worked to ease that concern in a release about the injury, saying Porzingis should be cleared and ready for the start of training camp. Boston has bet big on Porzingis — trading away "heart and soul" guy and former Defensive Player of the Year Marcus Smart to land him — and injury concerns could unravel this all. The Celtics have bet that Porzingis can repeat his play from last season in Washington, where he stayed healthy and played in 65 games, averaging a career-best 23.2 points a game with 8.4 rebounds and 1.5 blocks. That 65 games was key, he hadn't played in that many games in a season since 2017. While Porzingis' injury is not ideal for a big man heading into a season, this is an injury that needs rest and six weeks off, plus the ability to ease into camp, makes everything manageable. A healthy Porzingis next to Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Robert Williams III and the rest of a quality core makes this team a legit title contender. But they need Porzingis on the court. You won't see Kristaps Porzingis at the FIBA World Cup later this month, but it sounds like he won't miss any on-court activities for the Boston Celtics. The Celtics confirmed Wednesday that Porzingis has plantar fasciitis in his right foot and will engage in a "four-to-six-week rehab program" that should have him cleared for action by the beginning of training camp. If Porzingis begins his rehab program today, a four-to-six-week timeline would have him in the clear anywhere from Sept. 13 to Sept. 27. NBA training camps officially open Oct. 3, so if all goes well, the 7-foot-3 big man should be on the court for Day 1 of camp. Porzingis' foot ailment obviously is concerning given his injury history; the 65 games he appeared in last season were the most he's played since his second year in the league. The 28-year-old has the potential to be Boston's "third star" behind Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown while helping the Celtics get over the championship hump, but president of basketball operations Brad Stevens is assuming a significant risk by committing to Porzingis through the 2025-26 season.

Grant Williams on facing Stephen Curry with the Celtics in the 2023 NBA Finals | NY Sports News
Former Boston Celtics reserve forward Grant Williams appeared on fellow former Celtic Theo Pinson‘s Tidal League “Run Your Race” podcast this summer, and the Charlotte native opened up about a host of topics from his time with the Celtics and with the Tennessee Volunteers before that. One of the stories he touched on was his experience playing against Golden State Warriors legend Stephen Curry. Williams emphasized Curry’s playing style and its effects on and off the ball. The former Vol praised the Dubs star’s ability to create gravity from almost anywhere on the court with his lights-out shooting. To hear what else Williams had to say about his tenure with the Celtics and that fateful 2022 NBA Finals matchup with Golden State and Curry, take a look at the clip embedded below. Grant Williams played against Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry several times during his four seasons as a Boston Celtics player. The most notable matchups, of course, came in the 2022 NBA Finals. The Celtics were up 2-1 in the series and had a 94-90 lead with 4:56 remaining in the fourth quarter of Game 4 at TD Garden. Boston had a chance to take a commanding 3-1 series lead -- an advantage that only one team has ever overcome to win the Finals. But over the last five minutes of that Game 4, the Warriors outscored the Celtics 17-3, and Curry had 10 of those points during that stretch. He finished 43 points in what ultimately became one of his legacy games. "We get to the Finals and we're up 2-1. We're like, 'Oh, we got it. It's our time. We're about to go get it," Williams said on a recent episode of the "Tidal League" podcast. "Game 4 we're leading the entire way. We're like, 'We get 3-1, we might go back to Golden State and win this.' That man (Curry) was different. Different. It's like one of those things where I look back on it and realize he's tough."
