Malone, 54, has experience as a college assistant, but has never been a head coach at a university. 🏀 Wemby injured: Victor Wembanyama left Monday's win early with a rib contusion, grimacing while his left arm hung down at his side as he checked out out of the game. He still must play at least 20 minutes in one of the Spurs' final three games to become eligible for end-of-season awards.

🏒 Kuch nets 400th: Lightning star Nikita Kucherov scored his 400th career goal on Monday, becoming the eighth Russian-born player to reach the milestone. It also tied him with Connor McDavid for the league lead in points (126) with five games left. 🏀 Reese traded to Atlanta: The Chicago Sky traded two-time All-Star Angel Reese to the Atlanta Dream for two first-round picks.

Reese confirmed the news, calling it an "Angel's dream" to play for Atlanta. ⚾️ Soto lands on IL: Juan Soto will miss 2-3 weeks with a calf strain after landing on the IL for the first time since 2021. The Mets' $765 million man has been remarkably durable in his career, playing 150+ games in every non-COVID season except for his rookie year in 2018.
