It is a daily word-grouping puzzle created by The Athletic (a New York Times company). It challenges players to categorize 16 sports-related terms into four groups of four based on shared themes. It is a sports-focused spin-off of the viral NYT Connections game, featuring categories like...

Raven Johnson was ranked #9.

The day might come when Quiñonez is UConn's best player, perhaps even the best player in the country. For UConn fans, this was the salient line from ESPN's ranking of players in the Final Four -- and the scariest line for opponents.

Berube’s Princeton Tigers squad entered the NCAA Tournament as a No. 9 seed, tying the second-best seed in program history. The Tigers' 107.1 offensive rating is the program’s best since the 2014-15 team that went 31-1. The UConn alum leaves Princeton with the highest winning percentage in...

Thank you, @HuskyNan and @Vowelguy !

Going back at least 15 or more years (it could be over 20), there was a running April Fool's joke about a foreign post player, whose name (and bio) were created by Boneyarders. I believe the fictitious player was from Russia. Every year, her skillset increased, as did her recruiting profile...

This also helps New York, in that Stewart does not have to be one of the five players the Liberty protects for the expansion draft. This allows the Liberty to protect other star players / starters, knowing an unprotected Stewie will still sign with the franchise in free agency.

Three of the top 14 players (ESPN's rankings) are named Olivia / Oliviyah. It reminds of WBB recruiting a few years ago with the name Jade ... and approximately 20 years ago with the name Sade.

Lazo’s biggest impact with the Lady Vols was on the recruiting trail. He had a huge hand in assembling Caldwell’s first recruiting class featuring Mia and Mya Pauldo, Deniya Prawl, Jaida Civil and Lauren Hurst...

For Dallas, the team was near the bottom of three-point shooting. Some of that will change with a new coaching staff and offensive schemes, but that is an area of need. Dallas also needs major help in the frontcourt. I honestly do not know which player Dallas should select. Fudd has...

I watched the FIBA qualifier on TNT and got to see Awa Fam. I get the hype. Very skilled for her size. Oozing with potential. She is "bouncy." And she is skilled in the paint but appears to have shooting range. She displayed lots of effort; I did not see her taking off plays. That being said...

Sources said the franchise is expected to use the Comets' name, harking back to when the team was part of the league from 1997 to 2008, an iconic original franchise that won four straight championships from 1997 to 2000...
