Danny Neri’s historic performance lifts UCF to first Big 12 tourney win • Magic guard Jalen Suggs earns NBA All-Defensive recognition
 Sentinel Sports Final Wednesday, May 22, 2024 | | |
| | | | | Like Jason in Friday The 13th, this Jaden Rashada/pay-for-play issue with Florida just won't go away. It goes to show you when recruiting, as a lot of coaches are learning today, you must understand the people around that player who you're ultimately doing business with because they may become your problem, too. ... The Pacers had a chance to knock the Celtics on their heels in Game 1 and blew it. Late turnovers and a decision not to foul and force 2 FTs with a three-point lead and 10 seconds left led to a tying 3 and an OT loss. If they lose this series they can look back at this moment and coach Rick Carlisle has to ask himself if his stategy to not foul in this situation, which has backfired now THREE times and led to playoff losses, needs to be reconsidered. ... Jalen Suggs making All-Defense is well-deserved. I'd have put him first team instead of second, swapping places with Jrue Holiday who is an excellent defender himself for a long time. Boston's record made the difference, but for Suggs to be considered one of the 10 best in the entire league (450-plus players) is something else. ... UCF baseball has a chance to make the field for the CWS. | | | | It's hard to feel sorry for Jaden Rashada, who is suing Billy Napier and UF boosters because they backed out on a $13.85 million deal. He reneged on a $9.5 million deal with Miami because he saw a bigger, better one in Gainesville. | | | | | Neri's three home runs were the most by a single player in a game in Big 12 Tournament history. | | | | | Averaging a team-high 1.41 steals, Jalen Suggs is the first member of the Magic to be named to an NBA All-Defensive Team since Dwight Howard in 2012. | | | | | Attorney Rusty Hardin claims Billy Napier, mega-booster Hugh Hathcock and former NIL director Marcus Castro-Walker defrauded his client when they reneged on a $13.85 million agreement to secure Jaden Rashada's Dec. 21, 2022, commitment to the Gators. | | | | | Montverde Academy softball advanced to the Class 3A state championship game. | | | | | The Eagles squeaked past No. 4 Miami Somerset Academy and will play for the Class 3A state championship on Wednesday at 7 p.m. in Clermont. | | | | | Team president Jeff Weltman described the rookie-scale extensions of Franz Wagner and Jalen Suggs as a "huge component" of the offseason. Determining how much Wagner is worth is the hard part. | | | | | Tyrese Haliburton had 25 points and 10 assists for the Pacers, who knocked down 13 3-pointers and scored 56 points in the paint against a team still playing without 7-footer Kristaps Porzingis. | | | | | The Rays have dropped a season high-tying three straight games and fell to 25-25. | | | | | The No. 20 player in the Sentinel's 2025 Central Florida Super60, he has worked diligently to master offensive lineman techniques and has been pretty impressive after just two years of high school football. | | | | | The Bulls failed to qualify for the conference tournament twice on Mohl's watch. | | | |
