Guard PJ Haggerty, the 2024-25 AAC Player of the Year, committed to Kansas State on Monday, he confirmed to The Athletic.
ESPN also noted that Haggerty has withdrawn from the 2025 NBA Draft. Early entrants have until 11:59 p.m. ET on May 28 to withdraw from the draft and retain their NCAA eligibility.

Haggerty ranked No. 6 on The Athletic’s list of 100 best men’s basketball players in the transfer portal. Kansas State becomes his fourth school in four years after playing for TCU, Tulsa and Memphis.
Haggerty played in only six games for TCU but followed up with a breakout redshirt freshman season at Tulsa. He averaged 21.2 points and 5.5 rebounds on 49.3 percent shooting for the Golden Hurricane, earned the 2023-24 AAC Freshman of the Year award and made the AAC All-Freshman rookie team.
Following his success at Tulsa, Haggerty transferred to Memphis and logged similar numbers with averages of 21.7 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3.7 assists on 47.6 percent shooting in 35 games (all starts). The Tigers went 29-6 and reached the first round of the NCAA Tournament, where they lost to Colorado State. Haggerty received several honors for his solid season, including winning AAC Tournament MVP after Memphis beat UAB for the title.

Scouting report
Haggerty, a second-team All-American, is one of the best high-volume scorers in the country. He’s not an ideal fit in an analytically friendly offense because he often lives in the midrange and he’s not as good of a 3-point shooter (33.2 percent for his career), but he’s going to get to the foul line often (drawing 6.1 fouls per 40 minutes), which helps him score consistently.
He’s relentless in throwing his body into defenders, and is smart about using fakes and attacking vulnerable defenders. Haggerty needs to be in a system that is more of a dribble-drive approach. But give him freedom to attack and get to his spots, and he will put up points. — C.J. Moore, college basketball staff writer

Carli Lloyd’s game-winner, USWNT reunion and a $1 million prize: TST balances fun with fire
The past few days in Cary, North Carolina have felt like a U.S. women’s national team reunion, complete with slide tackles and a $1 million prize on the line. World Cup winners like Heather O’Reilly, Carli Lloyd, Ali Krieger and Hope Solo laced up once again, not just for nostalgia, but to satiate that ever-present hunger for competition and glory.AdvertisementTheir battleground was The Soccer Tournament (TST), a seven-a-side, winner-takes-all competition which is equal parts entertainment and sport. And for the second year in a row, it has become something of a post-retirement playground for the U.S. women’s national team.Starting last week, games were played on a smaller field with a fast-paced format designed for high-stakes and comebacks. The tournament featured rolling substitutions and target score time, meaning a game finishes on a final goal as opposed to when time ends. […]
Parádní finiš! Běžec Dudycha slaví český rekord
Dudychovi je teprve 19 let, ale už dlouho ukazuje svůj potenciál. Svěřenec Lukáše Dejdara z Vysokého Mýta je evropským šampionem v dorostu i juniorech, loni se probojoval na olympijské hry a v Bydhošti po 26 letech vylepšil český rekord Lukáše Vydry.Na mítinku zlaté kategorie v Hengelu v pondělí běžel ještě rychleji. „Druhá osmistovka sezony, nároďák o čtyři setiny, k tomu fakt cenné skalpy, to je super,“ zářil Dudycha, který za sebou nechal třeba olympijského finalistu Stefana Nillessena z Nizozemska.Většinu závodu se držel na chvostu pole, ale parádním finišem se posunul až na čtvrtou pozici. „To je v té konkurenci super výsledek,“ pochvaloval si.„Věděl jsem, že běží silná jména a z první dráhy nemá cenu se cpát nikam dopředu. Začal jsem v klidu zezadu a pacemaker běžel (na čtyřstovce) 49,20, což bylo fakt rychlé, i když jsem běžel předposlední,“ líčil Dudycha, který se v oranžovém dresu v cílové rovince propracovával vpřed.„Je super, že jsem dokázal ještě oběhnout nějaké borce.

Flamengo contratou Jorginho para repor possível saída de Gerson?
Na mesma semana que anunciou Jorginho, do Arsenal, como reforço, o Flamengo se viu as voltas com a possível saída de Gerson. A contratação, porém, não teve a ver com a iminente venda. O blog apurou que Jorginho seria trazido de qualquer maneira para o meio-campo, já que a ideia era atuar ao lado de Pulgar renovar com De la Cruz, jogando também com Gerson, mais adiantado. No planejamento da diretoria, o modelo de reposição prevê a chegada de reforços com seis meses de antecedência, e não em cima da hora, correndo riscos de depender do mercado. A lógica vale com maior vigor a partir da janela do meio do ano. No começo da temporada, as contratações foram mais modestas, já que no ano passado o Flamengo gastou muito em reforços.
Caitlin Clark injury update: Fever star out vs. Dream, will miss fifth consecutive game with quad strain
Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark still needs more time to recover from a left quad strain that has kept her sidelined for the last four games. She will not play on Tuesday against the Atlanta Dream, Fever coach Stephanie White told reporters after practice on Monday. "We've got to work both [Clark] and Sophie [Cunningham] back into [basketball condition]" White said. "It's one thing to do some shooting drills, it's another thing to get out there on the floor, get back into movement patterns, rhythm, timing. ... Both of them, being out for long periods of time, you've got to work your way back into being game-ready.""I don't know if 'cleared' is the right word," White continued. "We're ready to start ramping back up ... It's completely different when you're just doing one-on-one workouts [then] when you're out there in five-on-five, […]
