When Luka Doncic was ejected from the Lakers’ showdown with the NBA-leading Thunder, the score was tied at 108-all with 7:40 left in the game. From that point on, Oklahoma City outscored Los Angeles 29-12 for a 136-120 win on Tuesday night.
Doncic scored 23 points before leaving the game in the fourth quarter following his second technical foul. The Lakers guard appeared to yell at a fan, though the officials didn’t see it that way.
Crew chief Tony Brothers told reporters after the game that Doncic “looked directly at an official and used vulgar language.”

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 42 points, and Jalen Williams added 26 points for the Thunder, who bounced back from a 126-99 loss to the Lakers on Sunday.
Oklahoma City (65-14) inched closer to clinching the best record in the league and homecourt advantage throughout the playoffs. The Thunder have a two-game lead on the Cleveland Cavaliers with three games remaining. The team set a single-season franchise record for victories, surpassing the 1995-96 Seattle squad that went 64-18.

Biatlonové exhibice v Mnichově se zúčastní Hornig či Krčmář, Davidová chybí
„Holkám svědčí trénink ve výšce, takže jsme se teď rozhodli tým rozdělit. Markéta byla po posledním kempu dost unavená. A zatímco ostatní holky měly dovolenou, ona pokračovala blokem rehabilitací. I proto jsme teď upřednostnili trénink před dalšími závody. Prioritou je, aby byla zdravá na startu sezony,“ řekl trenér ženské reprezentace Lukáš Dostál.Muži jsou naopak v nejsilnějším složení. Nechybí ani 20. muž minulého ročníku Světového poháru Hornig či o devět míst níže umístěný Krčmář. „Je to sice exhibice, ale s těmi nejlepšími. Obvykle na podobných závodech startují rychlí střelci a exhibiční typy, ale tady budou skoro všichni. Bude to pro nás dobré porovnání,“ uvedl trenér mužů Michael Málek.Pro biatlonisty je exhibice i přípravou před novou sezonou. Po ní se přesunou na sníh do finského Vuokatti. „Garantují tam sníh už od 10. října. Nikde jinde v Evropě neumí v tuhle dobu tak dobře připravit tratě. My tam letíme až za týden, takže předpokládám, […]
Tua Tagovailoa does not lead by example after firing shots at everyone in the Dolphins
Tension at the Miami Dolphins has been rising following comments from quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who publicly questioned his teammates' commitment for being late or absent from players-only meetings. "Guys don't attend players-only meetings. There are a lot of factors involved ... Do we have to make it mandatory? Do we not have to make it mandatory?" said the quarterback, showing his frustration after the loss to the ChargersHowever, Tua's words were not well received by everyone. Former wide receiver DaeSean Hamilton, who was part of the practice squad in 2022, responded harshly on social media:Taylor Swift's steamy lyrics make sense after Travis Kelce video according to fansThis guy, the starting quarterback, was late to the first team meeting during my 3 seconds with the Dolphins.

Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese are still keeping a close eye on the WNBA’s CBA negotiations: These are the issues putting pressure on Cathy Engelbert
The 2025 WNBA season has concluded, crowning a new champion and shifting attention toward a critical offseason as the spotlight now centers on labor negotiations, with the current collective bargaining agreement expiring on October 31.Both commissioner Cathy Engelbert and the WNBPA aim for what they describe as a "transformational" deal. However, reports indicate the two sides remain apart on key economic and operational terms, raising concerns of a possible lockout.Indiana Fever could face a critical year in 2026Among the primary issues are player compensation and revenue sharing. Players want earnings tied directly to league growth rather than fixed figures, creating a dynamic structure similar to the NBA's basketball-related income model."The players are still adamant that we get a percentage of revenue that grows with the business," WNBPA president Nneka Ogwumike said. "That's just a part of the conversation."That emphasizes how […]
Horner jedná s Ferrari. Má to ale háček, post šéfa stáje mu nestačí
„Horner je v diskusi s několika týmy. Zájem o něj projevilo Ferrari, vyjednávání jsou v plném proudu. To by byla parádní dohoda,“ uvedl Daily Mail. Italská stáj přitom teprve v červenci prodloužila smlouvu se současným bossem. Jenže od té doby se monopost SF-25 propadl do ještě větší průměrnosti.Piloti Charles Leclerc a Lewis Hamilton po Velké ceně Singapuru svorně prohlásili, že jejich auta, mírně řečeno, za nic nestojí. Že je Ferrari v daný moment až čtvrtou nejlepší stájí na roštu a do konce sezony se na tom nic nezmění. Pro tak ambiciózní značku je to bezesporu velká rána, když ani jeden jezdec nevidí světlo na konci tunelu.Červencovým podpisem nového kontraktu s Vasseurem se Ferrari samo dostalo do problémů. O měsíc dříve se po Velké ceně Kanady nahlas hovořilo o konci 57letého francouzského manažera. Místo toho podepsal prodloužení. „Odráží naši víru ve Fredovo vůdcovství. Naše důvěra je založená na společných ambicích, vzájemných očekáváních a jasné […]
