Nächster schwerer Rückschlag für unsere Basketball-Frauen. Die Nationalmannschaft muss bei der Heim-EM (18. bis 29. Juni) auch ohne Center Nyara Sabally (25) auskommen!
Grund: das Knie des WNBA-Stars von New York Liberty.
[–>„Ich bin enttäuscht, das Turnier mit meinem Team zu verpassen und Deutschland in diesem Jahr nicht so vertreten zu können, wie ich es geplant hatte“, ließ Sabally per Presse-Statement verbreiten. „Es fällt mir nicht leicht, aber angesichts der Reha für mein Knie, des intensiven EuroBasket-Spielplans und des engen WNBA-Kalenders muss ich mit Blick auf meine langfristigen Ziele mit dem Nationalteam meine Gesundheit priorisieren.“
Sabally hat in ihrer Karriere schon zwei Kreuzbandrisse erlitten. Nach dem sensationellen WNBA-Titel an der Seite von Leonie Fiebich (25) hatte Sabally ohne Pause in der Türkei bei Fenerbahce Istanbul weitergemacht und dort ebenfalls die Meisterschaft geholt. Von den ersten neun Spielen der neuen WNBA-Saison hatte sie dann allerdings zuletzt nur drei absolviert.
Dritter Star muss bei Heim-EM passen: Absage-Schock für DBB-Frauen!
Bundestrainerin Lisa Thomaidis (52) zeigt darum Verständnis: „Nyara ist ein weiterer großer Verlust für unser Team. Doch ihre langfristige Gesundheit und ihre künftige Spielerkarriere sind das Wichtigste. Wir alle unterstützen sie darin, dass sie dem jetzt Priorität einräumt. Wir werden sie vermissen!“
Doch nicht nur sie …
Saballys Schwester Satou (27) hatte schon vor einem Monat abgesagt. Die Star-Spielerin hatte im letzten für den Olympia-Traum ihren Körper geopfert und trotz einer Schulter-Verletzung gespielt. Nach ihrem Wechsel in der WNBA von Dallas zu Phoenix Mercury erbat sie sich nun eine Pause.
Zu allem Überfluss riss sich dann DBB-Kapitänin Marie Gülich (31) vor zehn Tagen im Test gegen Tschechien (70:86) auch noch das Kreuzband!
„Scheiß auf das alles heute!“: Plötzlich tröstet Moderatorin Playoff-Verlierer
Noch gibt es allerdings Hoffnung, dass Fiebich und Luisa Geiselsöder (25/Dallas Wings) vor den Vorrunden-Spielen in Hamburg gegen Schweden (19. Juni), Spanien (20. Juni) und England (21. Juni, alle live MagentaSport) zum DBB-Team stoßen.
Bei den abschließenden Tests gegen Europameister Belgien am Donnerstag in Leuven (20.30 Uhr) und Samstag in Oostende (20.15 Uhr) muss das DBB-Team jedoch noch ohne die Stars auskommen.
Lina Falk (21/Pepperdine Universit) und Mailien Rolf (20/University of Arizona) wurden aus dem Kader gestrichen.

Where does this leave Wales' hopes of reaching next year's World Cup? Dented, but far from over.The simple and quick route has been shut off by Belgium, who now hold all the aces going into November's final round of games. It's difficult to argue against the position Belgium hold, they were just the better side in Cardiff. Qualifying in November holds so many more benefits than just the glory of topping your qualifying group.

Eternal Solace bids to defy penalty at Lingfield
We have a busy day's racing on Tuesday with flat action from Lingfield and Newcastle, live on Sky Sports Racing...2.30 Lingfield - Eternal Solace looks to defy penaltyEternal Solace looks to be the class act in the Free Race Replays On attheraces.com Fillies' Novice Stakes. Ollie Sangster's filly began her career in April at Brighton where she proved much too good for her rivals, comfortably getting the better of the warm favourite Dapper Charm - who has since won impressively himself.Her second start came in the Listed Marygate Fillies' Stakes where she was sent off as short as 7/2 and far from disgraced herself. She has an absence and a penalty to overcome having not been seen since, but the form has a solid look to it and the jockey booking of Oisin Murphy suggests she's ready to roll.Zighy looks […]

After fresh twists in the Formula 1 title race in Singapore, a look at some of the key talking points as F1 heads back Stateside for the United States Grand Prix in Austin.What now for McLaren's papaya rules as title fight hots up?Amid calls after Singapore for the gloves to come off between the McLaren drivers in their battle for the world title, and with the team's status as 2025 constructors' champions now assured, the dynamics on track between Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris are certainly going to be keenly focused upon in Austin.

Who can actually beat Terence Crawford?
Terence Crawford has won undisputed world championships at super-lightweight, welterweight and all the way up at super-middleweight.Unbeaten in his career, in that extraordinary run he's beaten standouts Errol Spence, at 147lbs, and most recently Canelo Alvarez, the dominant force at 168lbs. Beating Canelo at super-middleweight was implausible enough, moving up yet another division would not be realistic, even for Crawford.But he is running out of challenges. Please use Chrome browser for a more accessible video player Matthew Macklin and Barry Jones debate what Terence Crawford will do next following his sensational win over Canelo Alvarez. In one swoop he's picked up all four of the major super-middleweight world titles, so there are no rival world champions for him there. Crawford won the first fight with Alvarez so convincingly there's little call for a rematch. Hamzah Sheeraz is one of the […]
