The Boston Celtics’ interest in Otto Porter Jr. began on February 8, when Yahoo Sports’ Jake Fischer reported him as one of their targets. Despite the fact that they did not catch him, they have not given up chasing him. The Jazz now employ Porter Jr., but it is still feasible that they will buy him out. If they do, radio broadcaster John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 predicts that the Celtics will be interested in him. However, they are not alone. “The Clippers are interested in Porter; the Celtics are interested, but the Suns are not.” Gambadoro explained. While…

The Green Bay Packers own five picks in the first three rounds of the 2024 NFL Draft. In a fresh mock draft for The 33rd Team, Connor Livesay addressed the majority of the important needs. Oklahoma’s Tyler Guyton batted leadoff in the first round. Guyton played right tackle at Oklahoma, which is not a short- or long-term necessity for the Packers. However, Guyton did play some left tackle at the Senior Bowl. He possesses the athleticism to succeed as the long-term replacement for David Bakhtiari. Three of the four Day 2 picks went to defensive players, including Minnesota safety Tyler…

The former University of Alabama linebacker accomplished this with several Crimson Tide alumni on the roster, including three defensive players. Will Anderson Jr., a former two-time Unanimous All-American, won the NFL’s Defensive Rookie of the Year. Terrion Arnold, Anderson’s former Alabama teammate, is participating in the NFL Scouting Combine. Arnold, a native of Tallahassee, Fla., turned in an outstanding season for the Crimson Tide in 2023. He recorded 63 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, a sack, 12 pass breakups (team-high), two quarterback hurries, a forced fumble, and five interceptions (team-high) in 14 games. Arnold became an elite player as a…

Nick Lodolo, left-handed pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds, had a good day on Thursday afternoon in Goodyear. He threw to hitters in a live batting practice session. That was the next step for him as he works his way back to the mound and potentially into games this spring. Lodolo, who last threw for Cincinnati on May 6th against the Chicago White Sox, was initially diagnosed with calf tendinitis before being diagnosed with a stress fracture in his tibia. He attempted to return later in the year, but was shut down while in rehab with Triple-A Louisville when his stress…

The explosive Aaron Jones and the muscular AJ Dillon have led the Green Bay Packers’ running game over the last three years. The hulking Dillon is set to enter free agency and faces an uncertain future with the team. He was drafted in the second round in 2020 and has proven to be an effective and dependable counterpuncher for Jones, as well as a valuable member of the locker room and community. On the other side, he is coming off the worst season of his career and was unable to handle the weight when Jones was injured. “AJ’s been a…

The Green Bay Packers will need to locate a running back in the 2024 NFL Draft, and one name that has surfaced is New Hampshire Wildcats running back Dylan Laube. Laube has spent the last few seasons playing for New Hampshire in the FCS. Throughout the NFL Draft process, an FCS candidate is consistently discussed. He is the most recent prospect to be mentioned. Green Bay will need a running back in the summer. A season ago, he rushed for 715 yards on 158 carries and nine touchdowns, along with averaging 4.5 yards per carry. Dylan Laube also caught 68…

Since arriving on campus in 2021, Hudson Wolfe has witnessed first hand the Ole Miss football program rise from SEC obscurity to now become a legitimate championship caliber program. That said, Wolfe himself has had his fair share of turbulence personally during that time. His career has been marred by injuries from the very beginning. He suffered a labrum tear during fall camp of his freshman year, then suffered a season-ending back injury as a sophomore and then this past year, broke his collar bone while making his very first collegiate catch against Mercer. Simply put, his playing career has not gone…

After being eliminated by the Green Bay Packers in the playoffs, the Dallas Cowboys could benefit from a new start next season if they want to compete. The same may be said for Michael Gallup if the wide receiver wants to improve later this season. All throughout the regular season, the Cowboys demonstrated their dominance. This was evident at the end of the regular season, when Dallas won the NFC East division with a 12-5 record. That all changed when they faced the Green Bay Packers in the wild card round and were eliminated by them. This unexpected loss from…

Elly De La Cruz, the Cincinnati Reds’ outstanding shortstop, bats during a baseball game against the Seattle Mariners in Cincinnati on Monday, September 4, 2023. On Tuesday at Reds spring training in Arizona, De La Cruz hit a foul ball during a live batting practice session against teammate Hunter Greene, which struck Greene’s car in the parking lot and cracked the rear driver’s side window. Cincinnati Reds shortstop Elly De La Cruz and pitcher Hunter Greene are two of Major League Baseball’s most promising young players. De La Cruz, who hit 13 home runs and stole 35 bases as a…

Luis Urias, a former Milwaukee Brewers infielder, joined the Seattle Mariners this offseason via trade. The Boston Red Sox traded him in November 2023, after acquiring him on August 1, 2023, in exchange for Bradley Blalock from Milwaukee. Upon reporting to the Mariners camp this spring two concerning reports have surfaced regarding Luis Urias.  One is about the health of his shoulder and the other is his playing shape.  A combination of these two issues, but mainly the shoulder, may result in him starting the 2024 season on the injured list. According to Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times, Luis…
