James Harden finally set for Nets return after long absence
NY Post
James Harden is finally on the verge of returning to the court.
The Brooklyn star hasn’t played since an April 5 victory over the Knicks. But after missing 18 straight games with a hamstring strain – the longest injury absence of his ironman career – Harden could suit up Wednesday night against San Antonio at Barclays Center. Harden is listed on the Nets’ injury report as probable after The Athletic previously noted that he plans to play, assuming his pregame warmups go smoothly.
SAN DIEGO — As you may have seen elsewhere in this newspaper (and also if you haven’t deleted me yet from your social media), I have a book coming out Tuesday called “The Bosses of The Bronx.” Much of it details the 37 years’ worth of antics, winning, losing, winning again and overall mania of George Steinbrenner’s time with the Yankees.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
