Giancarlo Stanton To Sit Out On Wednesday

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles.

Derrick Favors Opts Into Player Option

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Derrick Favors has opted in to his player option for the upcoming season. The 30-year-old will accept his $10.2 million option and remain with the team for the 2022-2023 campaign.

Jalen Tolbert Signs With Cowboys

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert has agreed to a four-year contract. The third-round rookie could be a legitimate threat early in the season.

Bears Sign Velus Jones Jr.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Velus Jones Jr. has agreed to a four-year contract. The third round rookie figures to get plenty of attention this upcoming season.

Golden State Warriors forward Otto Porter Jr. (foot) was able to fully participate in practice on Monday. The veteran forward missed both Game 5 and 6 due to a foot issue.
