Olivia Fotopoulou won the women’s 60 meter at Balkan Indoor Championships today in a personal-best time of 7.35 seconds. It was the second major championship for Fotopoulou in consecutive weeks, as she also won the women’s 200 meter at the Panhellenic Indoor Championships last weekend.
Maybe it’s time to move on from discussing Herb Jones in terms of where he stands in the rookie class and start talking about him as one of the top overall defenders in the NBA, per this Nola.com piece. And The Athletic zeroes in on the Pelicans’ defense as the driver for their recent surge. This feature includes an analysis of Jones’ play against Utah last night.
The Detroit News gives an update on where Spencer Turnbull stands in his recovery from elbow surgery.
Brett Auerbach is discussed at length in this piece from The Athletic on 5 under-the-radar Giants prospects.
