NEW YORK (AP) — William Wesley, known for his connections throughout basketball, has joined the New York Knicks as executive vice president/senior basketball adviser. New president Leon Rose announced the hiring of “World Wide Wes” on Wednesday, saying he has known Wesley for more than 40 years and considers him family. “He is one of the most well-connected and respected people in the basketball community and he will be a tremendous asset and resource to both myself and the New York Knicks,” Rose said. Rose worked closely with Wesley as a longtime player agent before he was hired by the Knicks in March, just before the coronavirus forced the suspension of the NBA season. It was expected since Rose was hired that Wesley would have a role in the organization, though it was unclear if it would be an official title because Wesley has often worked in the background. The Knicks also hired Alex Kline and TJ Zanin as scouts. Read more on NewsOK.com

Rockies are playing with fire with high walk rate
Denver Post, Tuesday - 05/14/2024 - 10:02 PM
SAN DIEGO — Walks haunt, and late-game walks haunt absolutely. Usually. The Rockies’ 5-4 win over the Padres on Monday night at Petco Park was the exception. They pulled off the victory despite issuing 11 walks, only the third win in franchise history when they walked 11 or more. It also happened on May 12, 1995, at Florida and on June 5, 1999, vs.

Keeler: Can Avalanche trust Valeri Nichushkin again? “Only he can answer that”
Denver Post, Tuesday - 05/14/2024 - 09:56 PM
How do you forgive a brother who won’t stop breaking your heart? “Can they trust him?” ESPN analyst and former NHL goalie Kevin Weekes replied when I asked about Valeri Nichushkin, the Avalanche’s prodigal son. “Only he can answer that. Hopefully, they can.” Hopefully. The Avs are in trouble deep without him, limping into Game 5 of their best-of-seven playoff series with the Dallas Stars on Wednesday on a three-game losing skid while staring at a 3-1 hole. Nichushkin, Colorado’s mercurial winger, was suspended by the NHL for six months for violating Stage 2 of the Player Assistance Program before Game 4 at Ball Arena.

Nuggets playoff rotation: Why Justin Holiday is playing more, and Peyton Watson is playing less in Timberwolves series
Denver Post, Tuesday - 05/14/2024 - 02:52 PM
It’s the Holiday season in Denver. The Nuggets’ second-round playoff series has been characterized by a wrinkle in Michael Malone’s rotation: increased bench minutes for 35-year-old Justin Holiday, who was in and out of the lineup throughout the season. Holiday, who signed a one-year deal with Denver at the veteran minimum last July, was a DNPCD (did not play; coach’s decision) 24 times during the regular season.
