New York has been waiting for its Giannis Antetokounmpo
NY Post
We are Mighty Metropolis. We are Godly Gotham. We have tasted the canvas a few times lately, New York City has, but in a sporting solar system divided into haves and have-nots, big markets and small, we are still the haughtiest have. We are the big market; everywhere else is Altoona.
When it comes to sports, we lead with the ATM. That is still our first fallback, right? It is a part of our DNA, our muscle memory. In its way, it’s like that scene in “Goodfellas” where Henry Hill explains how Paulie “runs” a restaurant that he’s really just looking to bust out.
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.
