For Wendell Carter Jr., the Orlando Magic’s 2022-23 season further showcased the developmental breakout the 24-year-old big man took the previous season.In 2021-22, Carter set several career highs, including scoring, rebounding, assists and shooting efficiency.He one-upped himself this past season, setting new career highs in points (15.2), 2-point (62.4%) and 3-point accuracy (35.6%), 3-point attempts (3.9) and effective field goal percentage (59.1%) — a formula that adjusts for 3-pointers being worth more than made 2-pointers.Carter was a foundation of Orlando’s defense, which allowed 111.4 points per 100 possessions with Carter on the floor — a top-six mark compared to the rest of the league. The Magic allowed 113.9 points per 100 possessions with Carter on the bench — a solid mark that’s closer to average.Although he wasn’t as prolific as last season, Carter was the Magic’s best rim protector while adjusting to playing as the lone ...Bruins down Panthers, 6-2, to take control of series

The biggest game of the year, the biggest quarter of the year and Julius Randle was parked at the very end of the bench.Randle, the only Knicks All-Star, was a disaster in the third quarter of Sunday afternoon’s 102-93 Knicks victory over the Cavaliers. His defense was lethargic and Cleveland took advantage, targeting the power forward in pick-and-rolls with great success.The struggles spilled into poor body language, with Randle disengaging himself from a timeout huddle in the third quarter while floating to the scorer’s table. Coach Tom Thibodeau, who typically has a long rope for Randle’s antics, benched the power forward and watched the Knicks cook the Cavaliers in the fourth quarter behind Jalen Brunson and RJ Barrett.Randle did not speak after the game, leaving before the media was allowed inside the locker room.He finished with just seven points in 27 minutes, missing 7 of his 10 shots. Thibodeau hinted that Randle, who suffered a sprained ankle over three w...Mexico president tests positive for coronavirus for 3rd time

Ukrainian troop positions spark counteroffensive speculationKYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Ukrainian military forces have successfully established positions on the eastern side of the Dnieper River, according to a new analysis, giving rise to speculation Sunday that the advances could be an early sign of Kyiv’s long-awaited spring counteroffensive.The Institute for the Study of War, a Washington-based think tank, reported late Saturday that geolocated footage from pro-Kremlin military bloggers indicated that Ukrainian troops had established a foothold near the town of Oleshky, along with “stable supply lines” to their positions. Analysts widely believe that if Ukraine goes ahead with a spring counteroffensive, a major goal would be to break through the land corridor between Russia and the annexed Crimean Peninsula, which would necessitate crossing the Dnieper River in the country’s south.Responding to Ukrainian media reports proclaiming that the establishment of such positions ind...Biden expected to tap Julie Chavez Rodriguez to run campaign
