Knicks must make big push for Damian Lillard if he’s available
NY Post
If you are the Portland Trail Blazers, it makes sense to listen to your franchise foundation because what he says is the plain, unvarnished truth.
“We didn’t win a championship, so obviously where we are now isn’t good enough,” Damian Lillard said not long after the Nuggets closed out their first-round series on Portland’s home court, winning 126-115 in Game 6. “I don’t know what a shake-up looks like, or what changes will be made or could be made, but obviously as it is wasn’t good enough.” That was the first verse. This was the second verse:
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.
