Francesco Camarda could return to AC Milan earlier than expected, but Lecce will have to be convinced tomorrow, according to a report. Camarda left Milan to join Lecce on a season-long loan in the summer. A buy-out clause was added to the deal, as well as a buy-back, effectively working as a development fee in favour of the Via del Mare side.

Porzingis, who played for the Celtics from 2023-25, will be sidelined due to left Achilles tendinitis when Boston visits the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday. The 7-foot-2 center was originally questionable to play, but was downgraded to out on Friday. The new-look Hawks, who recently dealt point guard Trae Young to the Washington Wizards, traded for Porzingis from the Celtics in what was a salary dump move for Boston last July.

The Entertainment Capital of the World lived up to its billing on Thursday evening. During an emotionally charged game, where Mitch Marner squared off against his former club for the first time, there was plenty of star power and flashing lights, by way of the goal lamp. Although the Toronto Maple Leafs got off to a dream start, it quickly evaporated and a familiar story emerged: the Maple Leafs couldn't hold a third-period lead, falling 6-5 to the Vegas Golden Knights in overtime.

The No.10 was not included in the squad for that match, but he could be in contention for Saturday's game. This game came too early for him, hopefully he'll be able to train on Friday, Rosenior said in his post-match press conference on Wednesday. He has a minor strain in his thigh. If you play someone with a minor strain in January, it can be six weeks. I can't afford to lose Cole Palmer for six weeks.

Yet on Wednesday, at a Golden 1 Center Brown once called home, the 10-30 Kings secured win No. 11 in a 112-101 victory over the Eastern Conference's No. 2 seed. The Kings led by as many as 25 points without All-Star center Domantas Sabonis, emerging forward Keegan Murray or veteran point guard Dennis Schroder. The Knicks' struggles were apparent long before Jalen Brunson exited the game with a right ankle injury at the 7:01 mark of the first quarter.

It would also see third-year franchise centerpiece Connor Bedard exit the game; with less than a second to go, Bedard would suffer an upper-body injury that would keep him out of action for almost a month. He would later be placed on the injured reserve, a move which would not only end his chance at making Canada's Olympic roster, but also shelve him for four weeks.

Two-time Olympic gold medalist snowboarder Chloe Kim, who recently suffered a torn labrum while training, took to Instagram to announce that she would still be competing in this year's Olympic Winter Games in Milano-Cortina, Italy. This announcement comes just days after she revealed her injury, providing a sigh of relief for Team USA fans who believe that Kim is well on her way to her third Olympic gold medal in the halfpipe.

According to SPORT, Barcelona youngster Pedro 'Dro' Fernández did not train in the session prior to the match against Racing Santander and will not travel to Santander for the Copa del Rey tie. The 18-year-old midfielder will be unavailable and will not join the squad after it was confirmed that he is carrying physical discomfort that prevents him from competing at full capacity.

There are concerns regarding Strahinja Pavlovic's ability to feature for AC Milan against Como later this week, after his collision against Fiorentina this weekend. Few players have improved as much as Pavlovic this season; it is undeniable. Last season, he was on the verge of being cast out, but Milan believed in the Serbian, and he remained at the club until the summer.

Pepi was on a good run, had a strong training camp and was all the way back, Bosz said. He became more confident in rounding and was in that good flow again. All signs were green for a strong second half of the season, so this is incredibly disappointing. First and foremost for him and obviously for us as well.

Scottie Barnes has been downgraded to doubtful for the Toronto Raptors' game against the Boston Celtics on Friday due to the right knee sprain he sustained in the fourth quarter against the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday. Barnes exited to the locker room to be examined by medical staff at roughly the 10 minute mark of the final frame, but returned for the final two minutes to aid in the Raptors' buzzer-beater win.

The Croatian defender sustained the injury in the second half of the 1-1 draw with Chelsea, and had to be substituted immediately. Gvardiol is likely to miss the remainder of the season, and his participation in this summer's World Cup is also in doubt. It comes as a major blow to Pep Guardiola, who is already missing a number of senior players through injury, whilst Rayan Ait-Nouri and Omar Marmoush are still on international duty.

Martinelli threw the ball at Bradley and manhandled him as he lay on the turf in the closing stages of Thursday's 0-0 draw at the Emirates. Bradley, 22, left the stadium on crutches and wearing a supportive brace on his left knee. Martinelli was booked for the flashpoint, which provoked anger from Liverpool's players. Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane called Martinelli "a disgrace" on Sky Sports.

Martinelli threw the ball at Bradley and manhandled him as he lay on the turf in the closing stages of Thursday's 0-0 draw at the Emirates. Bradley, 22, left the stadium on crutches and wearing a supportive brace on his left knee. Martinelli was booked for the flashpoint, which provoked anger from Liverpool's players. But in response to the backlash, Martinelli posted a story on his Instagram account, writing:

The Dodgers won't be heading to an arbitration hearing after all. Outfielder Alex Call (one-year, $1.6 million) and relief pitchers Anthony Banda (one-year, $1.625 million) and Brock Stewart (one-year, $1.3 million) each avoided arbitration, coming to an agreement with the Dodgers before Thursday's MLB arbitration deadline, people familiar with the situation but unauthorized to speak publicly confirmed to The Times.

The Pirates are designating reliever Chase Shugart for assignment, reports Jason Mackey of The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. They needed to create a 40-man roster spot for Ryan O'Hearn, whose two-year free agent contract was finalized this afternoon. Pittsburgh acquired Shugart in a minor trade with the Red Sox last offseason. The Texas product had only six games of MLB experience at the time. He made it into 35 contests in his first and potentially only season as a Pirate.

"This means he'll unfortunately be missing a few shows while the multiple broken bones in his foot heal. We'll miss our beloved Pat as much as you will, but we want him fully healed and back on his feet as soon as possible. Beck and St. Vincent guitar wizard Jason Falkner will be filling in for Pat while he's on the mend."

Ahead of their Spanish Super Cup semi-final against Athletic Club, FC Barcelona announced that captain and veteran goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen had suffered a fresh injury. Indeed, the Blaugrana confirmed that the 33-year-old will be returning to Catalonia after his injury, suffered during a training session, with Diego Kochen set to take his place in the squad. Loan move in jeopardy?

Goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen has abandoned Barcelona's camp in Saudi Arabia to return to Spain for tests after getting injured in training on Tuesday, the club have confirmed. Ter Stegen, 33, has struggled with injuries during the last two years, missing most of last season with a knee injury and the start of the current campaign after undergoing back surgery.

We are not sure of the cause of the injury, and whether it is upper or lower-body, which could be a good or bad thing. Berube mentioned that he doesn't believe that the injury is a reason for concern, but the Leafs won't know until the testing is completed. McCabe suffered an upper-body injury back on November 22nd, but did not miss anytime.

While chasing a loose puck in the offensive zone, Wilson absorbed a counter hit from Blackhawks defenseman Connor Murphy. As Wilson fell to the ice, his right leg got caught underneath him along the boards. The Capitals' alternate captain immediately grabbed at his lower leg and slowly limped off the ice. Wilson then needed help down the tunnel from the team's training staff, which was most concerning of all.

Mbappe is reportedly facing up to three weeks on the sidelines with a problematic knee injury, leaving Madrid without their talisman for Thursday's Spanish Super Cup semi-final against Atletico Madrid. Alonso's side will first have to deal with Betis, aiming for a fourth straight league win to cut Barcelona's four-point lead at the top-flight summit. And the Madrid boss hopes his team can use their Club World Cup experience without Mbappe to find a solution once again.

The 114-110 defeat not only dropped the 905 to 5-1 on the season, but it also put an end to their historic 19-0 start, which was only briefly interrupted by a loss in the Showcase Final last month that didn't count towards the standings. Friday's defeat at the Paramount Fine Foods Centre was their first "official" loss in nearly two months of action to begin the 2025-26 campaign.

It was Week 7, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were taking on the Detroit Lions during "Monday Night Football" when it happened. Wide receiver Mike Evans, the franchise's all-time leading scorer, was lying motionless on the turf at Ford Field after a vicious collision with cornerback Rock Ya-Sin. Everyone knew it, and soon so did Evans when he regained consciousness and felt the searing impact of a fractured collarbone, his eyes welling with tears.

ANTIOCH - A man suspected of driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol collided with an Antioch police car early Friday, sending a sergeant to the hospital, police said. The driver also was hospitalized in the crash that happened just before 2 a.m. at the intersection of A Street and W. 10th Street. Both the police sergeant and the suspect have been released and are expected to recover.

All of NY Islanders nation held their collective breath when Bo Horvat skated down the tunnel in the third period of a blowout loss to the Utah Mammoth last night, appearing as if he was nursing another leg injury. Just a day after being named to the Canadian Olympic roster, it looked like that dream was on the verge of being dashed for Horvat.

PASADENA, Calif. -- Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson was replaced by backup Austin Mack in the third quarter of the College Football Playoff quarterfinal at the Rose Bowl with an apparent injury. Simpson fumbled on a hard hit to his midsection late in the first half against Indiana and was on the field to start the second half for the Crimson Tide, but he was benched after a three-and-out.

So far in 21 games played for the Toronto Raptors at the time of writing, Jakob Poeltl is averaging just 9.7 points, which is his lowest mark since the 2020-21 season, on 69.3 percent shooting. He is also averaging 7.7 rebounds, also his lowest since 2020-21, along with 2.1 assists in 25.3 minutes of action per game. Much like I wrote about Immanuel Quickley before him, there is a lot of uncertainty and arguably more disappointment surrounding the Jakob Poeltl discourse heading into 2026.

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey will miss at least a few weeks because of a strained left hamstring, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania. Giddey walked off the court gingerly after he was injured early in the second half during Monday night's 136-101 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves in Chicago. The injury is a tough blow for Giddey, who has career-best averages of 19.2 points, 9.0 assists and 8.9 rebounds this season.
