The altercation between Draymond Green and Jordan Poole had been boiling since training camp began, sources told Yahoo Sports. Both Poole and Green are up for contract extensions, and it appears Poole will receive an extension while Green knows he has to play this season out — playing a part in leading to Green striking Poole, sources said. The Athletic first reported the altercation and the Warriors are considering disciplinary action against Green. Green was apologetic and emotional in the… Source link

LAS VEGAS — It’s palpable, the instant when a legend lives up to its lore. When a 7-foot-3 French phenom — the most heralded international basketball prospect since Yao Ming two decades earlier — crosses the ocean and rains 3-pointers before 200 NBA scouts and the entire basketball world. To do so, Victor Wembanyama, the gargantuan 18-year-old widely presumed to be the No. 1 pick in next June’s draft, overcame a slow start in Tuesday night’s exhibition against the G League Ignite….

Google is set to unveil the Pixel 7 and Pixel Watch at its Made by Google event in New York this Thursday, Oct. 6, at 10 a.m. ET. Unlike Apple, Google “pre-leaks” small snippets of its devices with short videos on Twitter and YouTube. Think of these clips as teasers and a way to get ahead of leakers. It definitely seems that Google is taking the “if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em” approach. What we do know about the Pixel 7 and the Pixel 7 Pro is that both phones will feature an updated Tensor… Source link

At 5:28 p.m. on Aug. 28, Brian Robinson Jr. saw his football future flicker. Two teenage assailants approached Robinson on a crowded Washington D.C. street lined with restaurants and bars.

The other shot Robinson twice, one bullet striking his right glute and the other passing through his right knee. Robinson’s injuries weren’t deemed… Source link

Tim Tucker just can’t stay away. The veteran PGA Tour caddie is back on a bag this week, looping for Chesson Hadley at the Shriners Children’s Open in Las Vegas. Why would Tucker, who owns a successful shuttle operation at Bandon Dunes and who has invented a putting alignment device and who loves to dive into with data, go back to his old gig? “Because Chesson’s a great guy,” Tucker said after monitoring Hadley’s Tuesday range session. “He asked me a year ago to caddie here and I… Source link

A protester who ran onto the field during Monday night’s NFL game has filed an assault complaint against the Los Angeles Rams, a spokesperson for the Santa Clara Police department told Yahoo Sports. “It’s an active investigation,” Lieutenant Cuong Phan said Wednesday. “I can confirm a person did come in [Tuesday] at 1:45 p.m. and filed a report. However, it’s an ongoing investigation, so we’re not able to release details at this time.” The complaint stemmed from a moment in the… Source link

Not to be outdone by Meta’s Make-A-Video, Google today detailed its work on Imagen Video, an AI system that can generate video clips given a text prompt (e.g. “a teddy bear washing dishes”). While the results aren’t perfect — the looping clips the system generates tend to have artifacts and noise — Google claims that Imagen Video is a step toward a system with a “high degree of controllability” and world knowledge, including the ability to generate footage in a range of… Source link
