Sixers’ success through All-Star break will, once again, mean nothing if they can’t flip switch

25 days ago The Philadelphia Inquirer

By the time the NBA All-Star break began, 76ers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey had emptied the locker room of a guy who fell out of favor and replaced him with backup length.

Jewish groups condemn settler rampage, avoid mentioning Netanyahu

Against that backdrop, Netanyahu did not feature in many American Jewish organizations’ statements. A number of regional Jewish organizations and rabbis have previously called for boycotts of far-right coalition members if and when they tour the United States.

Michigan misses opportunities, loses to Marquette on the road

Down by four points to Marquette with three minutes to play in the fourth quarter, the Michigan men’s lacrosse team was desperate for a goal.
