„Od první chvíle jsem si jako hráč věřil a tohle byl jednoznačně můj cíl. Mám radost, že se mi to podařilo,“ řekl Castle, který byl s 1190 body nejlepším střelcem mezi nováčky. Cenu získal pro San Antonio podruhé za sebou. Loni v anketě triumfoval jeho spoluhráč pivot Victor Wembanyama.
Naposledy získala ocenění pro nováčka roku dvakrát po sobě v letech 2015 a 2016 Minnesota díky triumfům Andrewa Wigginse (nyní působí v Miami) a Karla-Anthonyho Townse (nyní hraje za New York Knicks). Před tím se to povedlo v letech 1973 a 1974 Buffalu Braves (nyní Los Angeles Clippers).

A look at the Lions’ undrafted free agents and which of them could stick with the team
The Lions have had at least one undrafted free agent make their initial 53-man roster each of the last 15 years, which includes the first four seasons of the Brad Holmes-Dan Campbell era.They do a good job giving UDFAs a fair shake, and even UDFAs who didn’t make the initial roster have managed to settle into a role in Detroit. Some of the standouts over the years include Brock Wright, Jerry Jacobs, Hogan Hatten and Trevor Nowaske — three of whom played significant snaps last year. Several others have been able to lock down jobs on the practice squad as they develop into NFL players.AdvertisementSo, then, what’s in store for the 2025 class? Who are the prospects most likely to keep the streak alive? Or does it come to an end this year, considering how strong this roster is?Let’s talk […]
Mandel’s Mailbag: The NFL rejected the Sanders firestorm. Is that the difference between CFB and NFL?

Browns, Rams poised to capitalize on 2026 QB class that looks much stronger than 2025 crop
The biggest winners of the NFL Draft might not have a chance to cash in on their investments until next year.The Cleveland Browns and Los Angeles Rams each added first-round picks in 2026, which is shaping up to boast a much better collection of quarterbacks than the 2025 class. And it could be one of the most memorable classes in recent history if Texas’ Arch Manning declares to enhance the level of star power.“If I’m one of those teams,” a personnel executive said, “I am jacked up I got another first-round pick.”There was a shortage of pre-draft trades this year, largely due to a lack of excitement over the quarterback class. The Tennessee Titans quickly centered their focus around Cam Ward with the No. 1 pick, and they rebuffed efforts by the Browns and New York Giants to move up. […]
Fantasy Football 2025: QB Cameron Ward player profile
Cameron Ward is the consensus top rookie quarterback: The former Miami Hurricane was the top overall pick in the NFL draft to the Tennessee Titans and should be the top rookie quarterback selected in both redraft and dynasty drafts. Don’t expect him to be an immediate top-12 quarterback: While quarterbacks like Jayden Daniels have excelled as rookies, Ward’s lack of rushing production and supporting cast on the Titans will limit his upside.

Xander Bogaerts’ first homer of the year is a welcome glimmer for the Padres
SAN DIEGO — One notable streak finally ended Saturday when the San Diego Padres scored a run after 30 consecutive innings without scoring. It had been their longest such drought since 1981.Three days later, in front of the second-largest crowd in Petco Park history, the end finally came for two other streaks that were just as conspicuous.AdvertisementFor the first time in 17 games, Xander Bogaerts drove in a run. Six innings later, and for the first time in 2025, the Padres’ $280 million shortstop homered.Afterward, he spoke as much about collective satisfaction as he did about individual relief.“We know how we’ve been playing, and we got off to a nice start at home,” Bogaerts said after supplying resounding insurance in Tuesday’s 7-4 win against the San Francisco Giants. “So many games unbeaten, and Tampa comes in and, I mean, they […]
