While a report in the first week of December indicated that the Bulls have no interest in trading the five-time All-Star, both DeRozan and the team continue to show up in trade rumors. First, ESPN’s Zach Lowe mentioned that a certain franchise in Los Angeles has discussed the possibility of pursuing DeRozan. More recently, an NBA source told Bleacher Report’s Eric Pincus that “everyone is watching Chicago very closely” and the Bulls “need to blow it up....

Unsurprisingly, the skills that have made Jones a monster to cover in the NFL made him a similarly problematic player on the hardcourt. Just ask DeMarcus Cousins. Cousins — playing Andre Drummond in the ‘NBA2K’ Tournament on Monday — was asked to relay the craziest dunk-on he’d ever witnessed. Instead of listing himself or several other NBA superstars, he went with a put-back dunk by Jones. The crazy part? It occured while he and Jones were still in high school (and, no, Cousins wasn’t on the receiving end of it)....

It was not that unusual considering the Hawks bench cut down a 20-point deficit in the fourth quarter to tie the game at 101 before Pierce’s game-winning shot. What is unusual is that starting forward DeMarre Carroll was supposed to be on the floor.

Tissues for crying breaks were set out on a conference room table for aides of Democratic Representative Eric Swalwell of California as they took numerous calls from people pleading for help to evacuate loved ones and friends from Afghanistan. The offices of lawmakers across the country are becoming inundated with similar requests after the Taliban seized control of Afghanistan and following an attack in Kabul on Thursday that killed 13 U....

Montana’s GOP Senator Steve Daines currently trails Democratic contender Governor Steve Bullock by 7 points, a lead within the Montana State University (MSU) poll’s margin of error. Meanwhile, North Carolina’s Republican incumbent Senator Thom Tillis trails Democratic challenger Cal Cunningham by 9 points, polling by Civiqs has shown. In Montana, Daines is currently backed by just 39 percent of voters while Bullock is supported by just over 46 percent. However, 7 percent of voters said they were still undecided while 6 percent said they’d vote for a different candidate....

This family’s story is far from the exception and is becoming the new norm in housing markets across the country. Millennials who tried to buy a house in 2021 found that it took multiple offers to finally get accepted. Homeowners looking to take advantage of the market quickly find themselves overcome with buyer fatigue and are dropping out of the process early and often, choosing to stay where they are or continue renting, despite the rise in rent prices....

Who are the real racists? These two questions will play a big role in the 2020 election. The left is desperate to turn any traditional patriotic appeal into an act of racism. The left is desperate to smear Republicans and moderate Democrats as racists. This past week, between Sunday and Tuesday, CNN and MSNBC reportedly used the word “racist” more than 1,100 times. Part of this desperation is in the left’s inability to debate the facts and their hope that strong smears can shame their opponents out of broaching the argument....

The high court used its ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization on Friday to overturn the 1973 decision that had guaranteed abortion rights nationwide, sparking protests and criticism from Democrats and other abortion rights supporters. “I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of lawmakers trying to cover their backsides when the Supreme Court justices they voted to confirm turn out as bad as the rest of us thought,” wrote Reich, a former secretary of labor under President Bill Clinton, in a Substack post on Saturday....

Thanks to Demon’s Souls’ non-linear progression, it’s possible that the Swamp of Sorrow will be the third area that players explore. The first one must always be the Gates of Boletaria, but beyond that players are free to choose which Archstones they want to tackle first. In the fifth Archstone, also called the Chieftan’s Archstone, players will come across this infamous area after they defeat the Leechmonger boss. RELATED: Demon’s Souls - How to Get Firestorm...

Weapons in Demon’s Souls determine damage in a couple ways. First, all weapons have a set base damage that they deal regardless of the player’s stats, and an additional damage parameter that scales alongside specific attributes. The four stats that can affect weapon damage typically are Strength, Dexterity, Magic, and Faith, but there are some odd cases that break this rule. If a player has a weapon that has an A rating in Strength scaling, they are going to want to pump up their Strength as high as possible....

Whatever the reasoning for using this glitch, it is one that players should be careful about. Doing it in the wrong area can end up getting the player stuck somewhere they don’t want to be....

Hidden in the YouTube description for Demon’s Souls new trailer is the reveal that the game will feature a brand new “Fractured Mode.” The text of the description says Demon’s Souls is “completely rebuilt from the ground up and masterfully enhanced with a new ‘Fractured Mode,’ " and that’s it.

Nezuko’s transformation into a demon serves as the catalyst for the series’ narrative, as it’s Tanjiro’s desire to save her that sets him on his path to become a Demon Slayer. Nezuko isn’t regulated to the role of spectator and makes herself known when she’s needed. Though she’s sometimesleft to hide in Tanjiro’s carrying case, Nezuko stands out thanks to her monstrous strength and unique appearance. Nezuko’s most distinguishable physical trait by far is her bamboo muzzle....

Technically, sure, Wednesday’s loss to the Brewers was just one loss in a 162-game season. But it sure felt like a defining moment — and not in a good way — didn’t it? The Cubs scored seven runs in the top of the first inning against the Brewers, the red-hot division rival that recently wrestled away control of the NL Central. The Cubs needed this game to stay within shouting distance....

The United States, who replaced coach Juergen Klinsmann with Bruce Arena in November after losing their last two qualifiers, opened the scoring through Sebastian Lletget after five minutes when he was on hand to tap home after Christian Pulisic’s shot squirmed past the goalkeeper. Honduras came back into the game but the home side doubled their lead after 27 minutes when U.S. captain Michael Bradley was afforded time and space to fire home a low drive from 25 yards out....

Logano took exception to a late-race incident in which Hamlin pinched him into the wall. After discussing the matter on pit road following the race, Logano shoved Hamlin and started to walk away. When Hamlin went after Logano, crewmen stepped in to restrain him. One of Logano’s crew members, tire specialist Dave Nichols Jr., was suspended for this weekend’s race for slinging Hamlin to the ground. “He really breeds those type of things....

However, businesses that prove at least 95 percent of their employees and customers are fully vaccinated will not have to require masks. The order announced by Denver Mayor Michael Hancock mirrors similar orders announced by counties that cover Denver’s suburbs recently. Colorado Governor Jared Polis said at a news conference Tuesday that a statewide mask mandate is not currently under consideration, but he supports city and county health departments making the decisions to enact the mandates....

Denver was a little late to the professional sports party. Its basketball team started in the ABA, not the NBA. Its football team started in the AFL, not the NFL. Major League Baseball didn’t arrive until 1993 and the NHL didn’t permanently call Colorado home until 1995. But the four players on Denver’s professional sports Mount Rushmore, well, their legacies are etched in stone in one of the country’s most scenic and dynamic communities....

The 25-year-old Raiders quarterback on Tuesday was driving in Dublin, Calif., a Bay Area suburb, when he noticed a man whose car was pulled to the side of the road. The man, Ron Reeser, had run out of gas. Carr, who in January was credited with a Twitter assist in finding a missing Oakland child, pulled over to make sure Reeser was OK. Carr of course offered Reeser a ride to the gas station....
