MANILA, Philippines—Macau Black Knights didn’t have the best campaign in the PBA Commissioner’s Cup, but that didn’t stop them from making noise in their final game of the conference.
The eliminated Macau stunned the playoff-hungry Phoenix, 105-98, at Ninoy Aquino Stadium on Wednesday to shake up race for quarterfinals positioning.

“I’m feeling like we just ended on a great note,” coach Marcus Elliott said. “Everybody was hyped, everybody was cheering on each other, our morale is high and we’re looking forward to seeing what’s next but to end on this note is perfect.”
With the Black Knights’ victory, the Fuel Masters dropped to a 6-5 record for a three-way tie at fifth place alongside TNT and Magnolia.
After leading by as much as 20, the Black Knights found themselves trailing in the fourth quarter, 89-83.
Macau, though, pulled the rug out from under Phoenix with an 18-4 run capped by layup from Jenning Leung with 2:40 to play for a decisive 101-93 lead.

Leung top-scored for the guest team with 32 points, five assists, three rebounds, two steals and two blocks. Ramon Cao fired 23 while import Tony Mitchell tallied a double-double 13 points and 24 rebounds.
Elliott said they will be more than happy to participate again if invited again by the PBA.
“We’re looking forward to the future, we’ll see what happens, we’ll build a strong relationship with management and see what happens next, really,” the player-turned-coach said.

Steven Pateman had trainer Ciaron Maher’s pre-race guidance resounding as he rode Stern Idol to the bottom of the incline in the Brierly Steeplechase at Warrnambool.
On Tuesday’s $2.10 elect at the Tozer Road double, Pateman handled the 3450m steeplechase, the marquee attraction on day one of the three-day Warrnambool Carnival.
“When I’m in a race, I can hear Ciaron’s instructions in the back of my mind,” Pateman told racing.com.
“And Ciaron actually said, don’t be dragging him around that turn, a big horse and with that recent rain on the ground.
“He did slip a little bit on the ground, and it was probably lucky that Aaron Lynch booted up (on Castrofrancaru), and I didn’t start pulling him around.”
Tuesday saw Stern Idol pack a current record 75kg to secure the win, exceeding his 73kg carry from the victorious 2024 edition.
Having led to the hill’s base before being headed, Stern Idol seized control again with 1000m to go and held on for a 4-½ length margin over Hit The Road Jack ($2.60), followed by Castrofrancaru ($15) another 2-½ lengths adrift in third place.
Pateman explained that the gelding got a surge when overtaken beyond the Tozer Road double.
“Once they headed him, he said ‘hang on a minute’,” Pateman said.
“He felt like he had 55 kilos on his back, not 75 (kg). He’s a big unit and I’m just lucky.
“He’s super special.”
Maher has a special affinity for Warrnambool returns yearly, having developed there first as a jumps pilot and then managing a compact group at the beach town.
His stable ranks among Australia’s elite in size, but his fondness for jumpers persists, evidenced by Stern Idol delivering his fifth Brierly Steeplechase victory.
Maher owned up to nerves watching the placers dart inside Stern Idol onto the true course but applauded Pateman’s steadiness.
“I was a bit nervous at the bottom of the hill, but Steve was cool, calm and collected,” Maher said.
“He’s been such a good horse over a number of years, and it is a credit to the entire team and the owners as well.”

A short wait was all Tony and Maddysen Sears needed to endure before their stable ace Yellow Brick secured The Archer at Rockhampton, making the delay entirely justified.
The $1 million showcase race, planned for Sunday, faced a rescheduling due to track troubles in the home straight sections – areas at 200m, 150m and 80m were heavy, unlike the good stand elsewhere.
With jockey Tommy Berry still in place for the new date, he guided the $3.40 top pick away from interference on the bend, leaving the Group 1 runner with plenty of runway in the long Rockhampton finish.
Local runner Cherry Rose hit the front strongly entering the final 300m, however class held firm as Yellow Brick powered to a length victory ahead of Anemacore ($19), Boomtown Boss ($10) just a head behind in third.
Maddysen Sears, partnered with her father in the stable, shared that the win carried deep emotion for the family featuring their banner carrier, who boosted earnings above $3.7 million with his tenth success.
“It’s just really special,” Sears said.
“My grandma’s here to watch, all my family come out to do it.
“We brought the right horse up and someone told me a couple of days before, a very good trainer in Melbourne said he’s going to win for fun and he did.
“He’s the pivotal horse for my career. Anyone that knows me, knows my family, this horse is this horse is so special.”
Berry expressed ongoing assurance in the mount, crediting a leading rider for the opportunity aboard Yellow Brick up north.
“They just wanted me to make sure I got room,” Berry said of the instructions.
“He’s a big horse and he takes a little bit of winding up, but it was a good effort today. Because he was first up and he was a little bit keen in the run and being on the fresh side.
“Great effort by the team to get him ready, to get him ready twice too for today. It was worth coming back for, for the second time.
“He’s definitely got a good carnival ahead. They’ve got some nice races mapped out for him. Thanks to James McDonald, he’s the one who got me up here, so I’ll try and keep it, and you can ride something else from now on, that’d be nice.”

OKLAHOMA CITY — Chet Holmgren had 24 points and 12 rebounds, and the Oklahoma City Thunder routed the Los Angeles Lakers 108-90 on Tuesday night in Game 1 of their Western Conference semifinal series.
Canada’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Ajay Mitchell each added 18 points for the Thunder. The defending champions improved to 5-0 in the playoffs, despite missing 2025 All-Star Jalen Williams with an injured left hamstring for the third straight game. The Thunder shot 49.4 per cent from the field and made 13 of 30 three-pointers.
Oklahoma City will host Game 2 on Thursday.
Los Angeles struggled to find offence without scoring champion Luka Doncic, who has missed the past month with an injured left hamstring. LeBron James scored 27 points and Rui Hachimura added 18 for the Lakers. Austin Reaves, who averaged 23.3 points in the regular season, was held to eight on 3-for-16 shooting.
Oklahoma City won all four regular-season matchups by an average of 29.3 points, and this one was only slightly closer. The Thunder held the Lakers to 41.7-per-cent shooting and forced 17 turnovers.
The Lakers ran out to a 7-0 lead, with James scoring five of the points. Eventually, the Thunder shook off the rust from an eight-day break and went up 31-26 at the end of the first quarter, despite 12 points from James.
Holmgren’s two-handed alley-oop dunk on a lob from Isaiah Hartenstein put the Thunder up 48-39. Lakers forward Jarred Vanderbilt injured the pinkie finger on his right hand on the play, left the game and did not return.
Oklahoma City led 61-53 at halftime, despite 16 points from James.
Mitchell, who started in Williams’ place, made a corner three-pointer and was fouled by Marcus Smart in the final minute of the third quarter. His free throw put the Thunder up 84-72, a score that held up until the end of the period.
Alex Caruso’s fast-break dunk early in the fourth put Oklahoma City up 88-73, and the Thunder maintained control from there.

An added benefit of the larger head has, in recent weeks, shown itself more than it ever could in an indoor studio. Those 30- and 40-footers, where I would occasionally force the face closed (and putt some tiny draw spin on putts) — I was subconsciously lining up on the toe end of the putter head. That causes all sorts of lag-putt issues, leaving so many six-footers for par. No one wants that grind.
Thankfully, the larger head and weight of the mallet has made setting up to the ball very easy and allows me the feeling of my putter being a pendulum — the little white ball at the base of the stroke just gets in the way, and the putter does all the work. That kind of simplicity is something my short game has been looking for — and one my scores have no doubt appreciated early this season.

Rajakovic Reflects on Season
May 5, 2026; Phoenix, Arizona, USA; Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez (57) throws against the Pittsburgh Pirates in the first inning at Chase Field. Mandatory Credit: Rick Scuteri-Imagn Images Eduardo Rodriguez tossed seven scoreless innings and Geraldo Perdomo had a two-run double during a five-run sixth inning as the Arizona Diamondbacks notched a 9-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night at Phoenix.
Rodriguez (3-0) allowed two hits and three walks while striking out seven as he matched his longest outing of the season. He also threw seven shutout innings against the Atlanta Braves during a no-decision on April 3.
Jonathan Loaisiga pitched a flawless eighth and Brandyn Garcia fanned two in a perfect ninth to complete the two-hitter.
Ketel Marte had two hits, two RBIs and scored twice, Gabriel Moreno had two hits and one RBI and Adrian Del Castillo drove in two as Arizona broke a four-game losing streak while winning for just the fourth time in 13 games.
The Pirates were 0-for-7 with runners in scoring position while seeing their three-game winning streak halted.
Bubba Chandler (1-4) allowed two runs and two hits over five innings to lose his third consecutive start. He walked a season-worst six and struck out four.
The Diamondbacks scored twice in the first inning.
Marte hit a one-out triple and Corbin Carroll walked. Del Castillo hit a sacrifice fly to score Marte and Ildemaro Vargas ripped a double to center to score Carroll. Meanwhile, Rodriguez was mowing down Pirates until Jared Triolo doubled to left with two outs in the fifth for Pittsburgh’s first hit.
The only other hit Rodriguez allowed was Konnor Griffin’s one-out double in the seventh that high way high up the center field fence.
Arizona broke the game open in the sixth as Yohan Ramirez walked Lourdes Gurriel Jr. with one out and hit Nolan Arenado with a pitch.
Moreno followed with an RBI double to make it 3-0 and Alek Thomas followed with a walk. Perdomo then hit his double just inside the right field line to push the margin to five. Marte knocked in a run on a fielder’s choice with Thomas scoring when the throw from Griffin was wide of the plate. Carroll followed with a sacrifice fly to make it 7-0.
In the eighth, Thomas led off with a double against Dennis Santana and scored on Marte’s single to right. Del Castillo had a RBI single later in the inning.
Pittsburgh manager Don Kelly served an automatic one-game suspension due to reliever Chris Devenski being ejected from Saturday’s game against the Cincinnati Reds. Bench coach Kris Negron ran the team on Tuesday.

Ademola Lookman will hope to make Nigerian football history when he steps onto the pitch at the Emirates Stadium tonight as Atlético Madrid face Arsenal in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League semi-final clash.
The first leg in Spain ended 1-1, leaving both teams with everything to play for as Atlético chase their first Champions League final appearance since 2016.
Lookman now has the chance to become the first Nigerian player since John Obi Mikel to reach and possibly win the final of Europe’s biggest club competition.
Mikel achieved the feat in 2012 when he played every minute as Chelsea defeated Bayern Munich in the final. Before him, Nigerian legends Finidi George and Nwankwo Kanu also reached the final with Ajax in the 1990s.
The Super Eagles winger has enjoyed a strong start to life at Atlético since joining the club in January. He has scored seven goals and provided four assists in 18 matches.
Lookman was one of Atlético’s best players in the first leg. He caused problems for Arsenal’s defence throughout the game and created several chances, although he could not find the net.
Atlético manager Diego Simeone is expected to set his team up to defend deeply and attack on the counter, while Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta will likely rely on possession football at home.
Lookman’s speed and direct style could be important for Atlético on the break. He is also expected to face a difficult battle against Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka on the flank.
Interestingly, Lookman has never scored or provided an assist in six previous matches against Arsenal during his time with Everton, Fulham, Leicester City, Atalanta and Atlético Madrid.
However, his recent form has given Atlético supporters hope that he can finally make his mark against the Gunners on one of the biggest nights of his career.
The winner of the tie will book a place in the UEFA Champions League final in Budapest on May 30.
