‘Champagne Charlie’ buzzing for Ally Pally debut after smashing Littler record
'Champagne Charlie' Manby is ready for an Alexandra Palace reception to remember having already smashed Luke Littler's record on the Development Tour.Manby was the talk of darts when the Yorkshire slinger threw just 47 darts, racking up a staggering 130.70 average on the Winmau Development Tour in February. It was the best in the tour's history, obliterating reigning world champion and good friend Littler's record of 115.22, but fame quickly left the 20-year-old flummoxed. Who is Charlie Manby?

NBA Cup: Is Victor Wembanyama the only hope to curb a Thunder dynasty?
LAS VEGAS — By the time a sweat-drenched Victor Wembanyama took his seat on the Spurs bench, having played the first three and a half minutes of action in a month, a meeting with the champions that previously seemed out of reach suddenly wasn’t.If the first quarter of Saturday night’s semifinal was a reminder of the reign of terror the 24-1 Oklahoma City Thunder have enjoyed for months, the second was a reminder of the French force that refuses to bend the knee.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementHis introduction to the game — coming off the bench for the first time in his career — changed everything. The friendly skies that Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had coasted in since October were now met with 7 '5 turbulence. Missed Spurs shots became simple second-chance opportunities for the gangly center.

Sparta se chce přiblížit Slavii, Bohemians chystají oslavy výročí
Dvanáctí Bohemians prohráli poslední tři ligové zápasy a propadají se tabulkou, navíc jsou doma po Baníku druhým nejhorším celkem soutěže. Ale slaví 120 let od založení klubu a v utkání se šestou Karvinou budou chtít fanoušky potěšit nejen výročními dresy a doprovodným programem, ale i třemi body. Jenže to nebudou mít lehké. Karviná za posledních sedm kole prohrála jen jednou, byť šlo o kolaps (0:6) v deseti proti Liberci. A bodově je na tom stejně, jako třeba o dost ambicióznější mančaft z Plzně.Právě pátá Plzeň hostí čtrnáctou Duklu. Viktoria z posledních sedmi soutěžních duelů vyhrála jen jediný s Mladou Boleslaví, je ale třeba zmínit, že tři bezbrankové remízy v Evropské lize (Fenerbahce, Freiburg, Panathinaikos) rozhodně nelze označit za průšvih, Plzeň naopak přiblížily postupu do jarní fáze. Viktoriáni právě v Aténách ubránili remízový výsledek i přes brzké vyloučení Václava Jemelky. Dukla z posledních pěti duelů posbírala tři body za stejný počet remíz a pokud prohraje o více než tři […]
College basketball winners and losers: Melvin Council rescues Kansas, Kentucky turns it on late vs. Indiana
During the final minutes of regulation of Kansas' game vs. NC State on Saturday, Jayhawks star Darryn Peterson -- the projected No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft -- checked out of the game twice. Peterson, who returned last weekend against Missouri after missing his team's previous seven games due to a hamstring injury, appeared to reaggravate the injury. "I think he was getting tight," Kansas coach Bill Self said postgame. "I haven't talked to the doctor yet or the trainer, but he said he needed to come out." Even without Peterson down the stretch, Kansas walked away with a dramatic 77-76 overtime upset win over NC State on Saturday, in one of the best games of the 2025-26 season thus far. The hero for Kansas was Melvin Council Jr., who scored a career-high 36 points and knocked down nine 3-pointers. […]
