SAN ANTONIO — It’s tempting, but the San Antonio Spurs will not play Victor Wembanyama every minute of regulation against Oklahoma City even as they trail the Thunder 2-1 in the Western Conference finals.

Instead, San Antonio has to find a way to play better when Wembanyama rests because Oklahoma City is dominating when the 7-foot-4 star from France is on the bench.

The Thunder are two wins away from returning to the NBA Finals with Game 4 on Sunday in San Antonio.

Oklahoma City has won two straight by an average of 12 points since Wembanyama had 41 points, 24 rebounds and three rebounds in 49 minutes during San Antonio’s 122-115 double-overtime victory in Game 1 on Monday.

As the Spurs seek solutions, playing Wembanyama more minutes is intriguing but not viable.

“The idea is there,” San Antonio coach Mitch Johnson said, smiling, “but, yeah, I think as we’ve seen it, him fresh or somewhat fresh is still the best. … We don’t want to sacrifice our style of play and the identity that we’ve been building since October.”

The Spurs were a plus-4 in Wembanyama’s 39 minutes in Game 3’s 123-108 loss to the Thunder on Friday. That number may seem inconsequential, but San Antonio was minus-15 as a team and its main reserves were in the negative by double digits.

MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had a team-high 26 points, but the rest of the starters combined for 21 points.

Their scoring wasn’t needed Friday.

Oklahoma City’s bench outscored San Antonio’s 76-23 and were a combined 14 for 29 on 3-pointers. The 76 bench points are the most in the conference finals since the NBA went to the 16-team playoff format in 1984.

“We’ve dealt with a lot of injuries throughout the year, but it’s built us,” Thunder center Jaylin Williams said. “It’s built us as a team. It’s built us as players to be ready for the moment, to be ready when your name is called.”

Williams had a playoff career-high 18 points, and fellow reserve Jared McCain finished with 24 points.

The Spurs opened Game 3 on a 15-0 run, the longest run to open a game in the conference finals since the play-by-play era began in 1997. San Antonio led 19-4 when Wembanyama subbed out with seven minutes remaining in the quarter but the Thunder cut the deficit to 24-19 when he returned with 3:44 remaining in the first.

The Thunder’s depth also allows them to throw multiple bodies and looks to wear on Wembanyama and the Spurs.

“I know I’m not going to play as many minutes as (Wembanyama) is, so the minutes I’m out there I’m trying to make his job as tough as I can make it,” Williams said.

Making matters worse for the Spurs is two of their primary playmakers and scorers are battling injuries.

Point guards De’Aaron Fox (sprained right ankle) and Dylan Harper (right adductor soreness) played in Game 3 but were not at 100%. Fox also appeared to injure his left ankle in the third quarter but returned shortly after exiting for the locker room.

“They came out of the game, finished on their own accord,” Johnson said. “I took them out, so that’s a plus and as of now we expect them to be ready to go. So, those guys are giving us all they got, and I commend them and tip my cap because they’re competing … and they’re not 100%.”

There was no update on their playing status as of Sunday afternoon.

The diminished health of Fox and Harper along with Oklahoma City’s physicality has slowed San Antonio’s usual breakneck pace offensively.

The Spurs played reserve center Luke Kornet alongside Wembanyama at times Friday in an attempt to improve its rebounding and spark a faster pace, but the Thunder limited that as well.

“That’s been good for us all year,” Castle said of the Spurs’ pace. “I don’t think it’s just against them that it’s crucial that we have those possessions, but, I mean, I think that comes from getting stops first.”

Castle did not want to give away any strategy, but he did say the Spurs discovered some “schematic stuff” that should fix their lapses on both ends for Game 4.

Regardless, San Antonio has to find a way to keep playing with Wembanyama on the bench.

“I feel like each and every one of us has got to be better,” Wembanyama said. “Yeah, I think it’s just that as a team, as an organization, there’s a lot of new experiences. We’re just going to have to find the answers.”

Morocco national football team arrive at the 2026 FIFA World Cup carrying the weight of history and expectation after their remarkable run in Qatar four years ago. The Atlas Lions stunned the footballing world in 2022 by defeating Spain and Portugal in the knockout stages, becoming the first African nation ever to reach a World Cup semifinal. Having previously advanced beyond the group stage only once back in 1986, Morocco now face the challenge of proving their success was no fluke.

Led by the ever-dangerous Achraf Hakimi, widely regarded as one of the world’s best attacking right-backs, Morocco possess a squad filled with quality and experience. Brahim Díaz is also set to feature in his first World Cup after switching international allegiance from Spain in 2023, adding even more creativity to the side. While several heroes from the 2022 campaign remain central figures, a new generation of talent is also expected to emerge during the tournament.

Morocco’s road to qualification was dominant from start to finish. They won all eight of their qualifying matches, scoring 22 goals while conceding just twice. The Atlas Lions comfortably topped their group with a nine-point advantage over nearest challengers Niger, showcasing both defensive solidity and attacking consistency throughout the campaign.

Morocco looking for another positive display

Achraf Hakimi will once again be the driving force behind Morocco’s ambitions at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Widely regarded as one of the finest full-backs in world football, the Paris Saint-Germain star brings pace, creativity and attacking threat down the right flank. Fresh off a UEFA Champions League triumph in 2025, Hakimi’s overlapping runs and ability to influence games in the final third make him one of Morocco’s most dangerous weapons.

Morocco’s Key Strengths

Morocco national football team thrive in quick transitional football rather than slow possession-based play. Their attacking approach is built around speed, direct movement and exploiting spaces in wide areas, especially through the attacking runs of Achraf Hakimi. Morocco are also extremely well-organised defensively, maintaining a compact shape without the ball and showing impressive discipline across all areas of the pitch. Their structure and tactical awareness make them difficult opponents to break down.

Morocco’s Weaknesses

While Morocco are dangerous on the counterattack, they can struggle creatively when forced to dominate possession against defensive opponents. Breaking down deep defensive blocks remains a challenge, particularly against teams willing to sit back and defend in numbers. In matches where Morocco are expected to control the tempo and create consistently through the middle, their attacking rhythm can sometimes become predictable and less effective.

Very few managers in football history can claim to be as successful and dominant as the Spanish legend Pep Guardiola. Premier League side Manchester City were well aware of the tactical brilliance of the Spaniard when they hired him as manager in 2016.

Pep did not let the management or fans down, as in 10 years as City boss he led them to 20 major trophies, including six Premier League titles and their first-ever UEFA Champions League title in 2023.

However, as they say, all good things must come to an end. Pep’s time as Manchester City manager is set to conclude after the ongoing 2025-26 season following a historic 10-year run that established City as one of the biggest clubs in the world, while also making them favourites to win almost every tournament they entered.

But how exactly was Pep able to achieve that? Let’s take a look.

Man City before the Guardiola era

Before understanding how Pep completely changed Manchester City’s landscape, it is important to know how they performed at the highest level before his arrival.

The Premier League once revolved around the so-called “Big Five”, which included Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, as these clubs dominated English football for years.

However, by the early 2010s, Manchester City had started challenging the established order at every level possible, effectively expanding the “Big Five” into a “Big Six”.

City won their first Premier League title in the 2011-12 season under Roberto Mancini, when Sergio Aguero’s last-minute goal on the final matchday helped them finish above Manchester United. They won their second league title two years later in the 2013-14 season under Manuel Pellegrini.

Pep Guardiola as City manager (year-by-year performance)

2016-17: Building the Guardiola blueprint

Pep Guardiola’s first season at Manchester City was always expected to be one of transition. Arriving in England with a reputation for tactical brilliance, he spent much of the campaign assessing his squad and reshaping the team around his philosophy. Kevin De Bruyne quickly became central to City’s style, but despite flashes of promise, Guardiola’s debut year ended without silverware as City finished third in the Premier League and were knocked out by Monaco in the Champions League Round of 16.

2017-18: Birth of the Centurions

Guardiola’s revolution truly came alive in his second season. New arrivals such as Bernardo Silva, Kyle Walker and Ederson transformed the spine of the team as City played some of the most dominant football English football had ever seen. They won the League Cup and stormed to the Premier League title with a record 100 points and 106 goals, finishing miles ahead of the competition. Although Liverpool ended their Champions League hopes, City had firmly established themselves as England’s most feared side.

2018-19: Three trophies, one statement

Manchester City were pushed to the limit by Liverpool in a thrilling title race, but Guardiola’s side held their nerve. Winning their final 14 league matches, City retained the Premier League crown with 98 points. They also lifted the League Cup and FA Cup, completing a historic domestic treble. While domestic dominance continued, Europe remained elusive as Tottenham ended their Champions League dream in dramatic fashion.

2019-20: Pandemic pause, painful setback

City’s hold over English football slipped as Liverpool ended their dominance in the Premier League. The Covid-19 pandemic disrupted the season, creating unusual circumstances in both domestic and European football. Guardiola’s side impressed by eliminating Real Madrid in the Champions League, but a shocking defeat to Lyon in Lisbon ended another European campaign in frustration. Their only trophy came in the League Cup, offering little comfort in an otherwise disappointing year.

2020-21: Champions again, Europe slips away

After an inconsistent start, Guardiola rebuilt City’s defensive core with the arrival of Rúben Dias. That move transformed the team as City regained the Premier League title and once again lifted the League Cup. More importantly, Guardiola guided the club to its first Champions League final. But the dream ended painfully in Porto, where Chelsea’s narrow win denied City their first European crown.

2021-22: Five minutes that changed everything

One of the most dramatic title races in Premier League history ended in unforgettable fashion. On the final day, City trailed Aston Villa 2-0 and looked on the verge of collapse. Then came a remarkable five-minute turnaround led by Ilkay Gündogan and Rodri, sealing another Premier League triumph. Yet in Europe, heartbreak returned as Real Madrid staged a late comeback in the semi-finals to crush City’s hopes once again.

2022-23: The season of immortality

This was Guardiola’s masterpiece. The arrival of Erling Haaland added a ruthless edge to City’s attack, while Guardiola’s tactical evolution made the team nearly unstoppable. City won the Premier League, FA Cup and finally the Champions League, completing a historic treble. Rodri’s winning goal against Inter Milan in Istanbul delivered the one trophy Guardiola had craved most.

2023-24: Keeping the crown

After making history, City showed they were far from done. Guardiola’s side won their final nine league games to edge Arsenal and secure another Premier League title. But Europe again brought frustration, with Real Madrid knocking them out on penalties in the Champions League quarter-finals. The campaign also ended with an FA Cup final defeat to Manchester United, though Guardiola’s domestic dominance remained intact.

2024-25: When City lost their edge

For one of the few times under Guardiola, City looked vulnerable. An ageing squad struggled to maintain the same intensity, while injuries and inconsistency exposed cracks in the system. Guardiola admitted it was one of his toughest campaigns as City ended the season without major silverware. Losing to Crystal Palace in the FA Cup final summed up a frustrating and forgettable year.

2025-26: One final flourish

Guardiola’s final season brought another rebuild, with younger players stepping up to form the next core of the squad. Although City started slowly and their title hopes faded early, they recovered strongly to push Arsenal deep into the race. Success in the League Cup and FA Cup ensured Guardiola signed off with silverware. While Real Madrid once again ended City’s Champions League ambitions, his farewell season still reflected resilience, renewal and a fitting final flourish.

Guardiola’s final message to Manchester City fans

As Pep Guardiola prepares to leave Manchester City, the iconic manager shared an emotional farewell message, reflecting on his deep bond with the club, the city and its people after a defining era. Guardiola said there was no major reason behind his exit, only a feeling that it was the right time to step away.

He praised Manchester’s hardworking spirit, resilience, history and strong sense of community, saying he came to understand what made the city unique and how that same mentality shaped his teams. Looking back, Guardiola recalled both triumphs and setbacks, stressing that City’s success was built on hard work, sacrifice and belief.

He also remembered difficult moments, including the Manchester Arena attack and losing his mother during Covid-19, thanking the club and fans for their support. Guardiola praised his players for creating a lasting legacy before thanking the supporters, staff and city, calling Manchester “my place” in a heartfelt goodbye.

One of the best to grace the Premier League sidelines

Pep Guardiola’s tenure at Manchester City has been one of the most successful in the club’s history. Since taking charge on July 1, 2016, the Spanish manager has overseen 592 matches, winning 416 of them while drawing 87 and losing 89.

Under his leadership, City have scored an impressive 1,422 goals and conceded 520, reflecting the team’s attacking dominance and consistency. Guardiola has maintained a remarkable win percentage of 70.27%, underlining his impact in transforming City into a domestic and European powerhouse during his era at the club.

Despite his departure, Guardiola will forever be remembered as one of the best managers to ever grace the Premier League sidelines, and any club would be ready to welcome him with open arms if he ever decided to return.

Man City will host a celebratory open-top bus parade on Bank Holiday Monday

Manchester City will be celebrating the men’s, women’s and academy teams’ 2025/26 campaigns with an open-top bus parade taking place on Bank Holiday Monday (May 25). The parade will begin its course in the city centre and will make its way to the Co-op Live for an ‘After Party’.

The event will also be paying tribute to departing Pep Guardiola, following confirmation that the Manchester City manager will leave this summer after ten years at the Etihad.

Fans wanting to show support for the club and for Pep are being encouraged to join in with the free celebrations along the parade route. Alternatively, fans can also buy tickets for ‘The After Party’ taking place at Co-op Live.

The route will commence in the Northern Quarter of Manchester City Centre at 4pm. There will be a kick-off moment involving all the teams before buses set off down Newton Street towards Ancoats, at around 5pm.

From there, the parade will make its way down Great Ancoats Street, before turning onto Pollard Street. It will then continue on to the Ashton New Road until it comes to a close outside the Etihad Stadium at the Colin Bell Stand Reception.

Manchester City has confirmed a new extended last entry time for Co-op Live, and fans with tickets to ‘The After Party’ will now be able to enter the arena until 6pm. This will feature live music and entertainment as well as player interviews from both the men’s and women’s teams along with special guests.

The club have confirmed that ‘The After Party’ will include an onstage appearance from former captain Fernandinho as well as Oasis icon Noel Gallagher and famous Stockport band, Blossoms. The show will also include performances by Doves and Alex Spencer as well as DJ sets from Sam Divine and Mike Joyce.

Entry times have been extended to allow fans the opportunity to view the start of the parade, with the club previously stating there would be no entry permitted at the Co-op Live arena after 5pm. The parade will also be shown inside the Co-op Live for those attending ‘The After Party’.

Doors for ‘The After Party’ will open at Co-op Live at 3pm, with player arrival at 6.30pm. The event is expected to close at 8pm.

The United States — one of the World Cup’s three host nations — has reportedly finalized its 26-player roster for this summer’s highly anticipated tournament.

Although U.S. Soccer is not expected to formally announce the roster until after Memorial Day, reports citing sources say Brenden Aaronson, Mark McKenzie, Turner and Sebastian Berhalter are among the expected selections. Sebastian is the son of former USMNT coach Gregg Berhalter. Aaronson suited up for Team USA during the 2022 tournament in Qatar.

Sources also told The Athletic that Gio Reyna is expected to be included on the roster for Mauricio Pochettino’s first World Cup run as USMNT manager.

Since being sent home from the 2022 World Cup over what were described as behavioral issues, Reyna has remained one of the more polarizing figures in the U.S. player pool despite his talent. The 23-year-old logged a total of 509 minutes for Borussia Mönchengladbach this season.

As questions about Reyna’s future with the national team continued to swirl, the son of former U.S. star Claudio Reyna recently highlighted the special chance to play on the international stage.

“I’m just hoping and waiting for the call-up, it would be an honor,” Reyna said. “The national team means a lot to me. … I’d love to be there, have an impact on the team. It would be a dream to represent my country at the World Cup.”

Roster cutdowns inevitably bring tough decisions, and reports indicate Real Salt Lake standout Diego Luna did not make the final World Cup squad. Luna developed into a key member of the USMNT’s rotation in 2025.

Luna has scored four goals in 18 matches for the national team, adding to the 22 goals he has recorded over the past three seasons with Real Salt Lake.

While Kyle Busch was a legend in the NASCAR ranks, he was incredibly well respected throughout the world of motorsports.

That’s why one of Busch’s NASCAR numbers — the one I’d argue is most iconic — will make an appearance in the 110th Running of the Indianapolis 500.

Busch had a bunch of numbers across NASCAR’s three national series, but in the Cup Series, he used No. 5, No. 18 and No. 8.

ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON’T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!

For many fans, No. 18 is the number they associate with Busch, as he used it for 15 years, including during both of his championship seasons.

NASCAR, RACING WORLD REACTS TO KYLE BUSCH’S SHOCKING DEATH AT 41: ‘CANNOT COMPREHEND THIS NEWS’

You can close your eyes and picture it on the side of those legendary M&M’s paint schemes.

Well, Sports Business Journal’s Adam Stern shared that Dale Coyne Racing, which runs the No. 18 Honda driven by Romain Grosjean, will display the classic No. 18 used on Busch’s car during his time with Joe Gibbs Racing in the Cup Series.

How about that tribute?

Of course, the numbers are typically trademarked, so as Stern reported, the idea — which came from Fox Sports IndyCar commentator Townsend Bell — required getting in touch with Joe Gibbs Racing.

Busch never raced in the Indy 500 or in the IndyCar Series; however, he did have a lot of success at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in NASCAR.

His brother, retired NASCAR driver and former Cup Series champ, Kurt Busch, attempted double duty by competing in both the Indianapolis 500 and Coca-Cola 600 on the same day in 2014.

It’s a heck of a tribute from the folks at Dale Coyne Racing with an assist from JGR.

And while I don’t want to play favorites, wouldn’t it be something to see that No. 18 in Victory Lane?

Grosjean will start Sunday’s race in 24th, which means he has some ground to make up, but anything can happen in the Indy 500.

This week’s CJ Cup Byron Nelson at TPC Craig Ranch has just two players inside the top 30 in the Official World Golf Rankings. Luckily for the PGA Tour, they’ll be dueling on Sunday.

After three rounds in Dallas, Si Woo Kim leads Scottie Scheffler and Wyndham Clark by two shots. Kim flirted with a 59 on Friday and held a five-shot lead entering the weekend. That edge evaporated by midway through Saturday’s round as both Clark and Scheffler caught Kim on the back nine. But Kim steadied the ship and played his final seven holes in 3 under to take a two-shot lead into Sunday’s final round as he looks for his first win since the 2023 Sony Open.

Kim and Scheffler will be paired together on Sunday. The two live in Dallas and often play together. Kim knows he won’t be the favorite on Sunday as Scheffler tries to track him down and successfully defend his title.

“I think no matter what, it’s going to be fun, especially Dallas, kind of like my second hometown,” Kim said. “He grew up here. It’s going to be a lot of fans cheering for him. I know, of course, everyone’s cheering for him. it’s going to be fun. I was hoping for a pairing with Scottie. Yeah, it’s going to be fun Sunday and fun to go with Scottie.”

Players went off in threesomes on Saturday but will go off in pairs on Sunday.

Clark and Stephan Jaeger, who is four shots back of Kim, will go off at 1:30 p.m. ET, with Kim and Scheffler following at 1:40.

Boxing legend Tyson Fury has a stern ruling in place when it comes to giving his children his money

Tyson Fury previously revealed he has no intention of leaving his fortune to his children, despite presenting his daughter and her new husband with a £5million wedding gift. The boxing legend and his wife, Paris, also gave Venezuela, 16, and Noah Price, 19, a lavish static caravan following the pair’s nuptials last weekend.

The newlyweds also had their £30,000 honeymoon in Marbella funded by Fury. Yet, despite such extravagant generosity, Fury maintains a firm stance when it comes to passing down his wealth, which is estimated to be around £148m according to Celebrity Net Worth.

Fury has even previously boasted of having £200m in the bank. However, the former world champion has made it abundantly clear that all seven of his children, including his eldest daughter, will need to make their own way in the world without financial assistance from him.

“I want my kids to get their own money, do their own things and be their own people,” Fury said in December 2024. “I don’t believe in just giving all your money to your kids but it will make them weak, spoiled and not value anything, worthless. They’ll end up getting to 35 and never having done anything for themselves, apart from spending dad’s money.

“They’ll be middle-aged looking in the mirror and being disappointed. If I buy my son a Lamborghini as soon as he passes his test, he’ll probably kill himself in it.

“But he also wouldn’t appreciate it. But if he works hard and gets himself a 2004 Corsa, he will be outside washing the c*** out every day, hoovering it top to bottom. And I will be proud of him because he has done it himself.

“I will help them with business deals and investments. But I am not a person who will just give everyone an easy life. Hard work, dedication and sacrifice are what make people strive for different things.”

Venezuela and boxer Noah tied the knot last Saturday at a chapel near Douglas on the Isle of Man. The celebrations continued at the Comis Hotel and Golf Club, where singer Peter Andre entertained the guests.

Regarding Fury’s lavish wedding present, a source revealed to The Sun: “Tyson and Paris gave Venezuela and Noah a wedding gift of £5million to kick-start their life. Obviously, they were over the moon.

“Some family members thought it was a lot of money for a young couple so there were some mixed feelings – but it’s up to Tyson and Paris.

“Tyson also paid for the honeymoon and got them a traditional gypsy wagon as a sentimental gift. Tyson’s got one in his front yard. The wedding was magical and they spent £40,000 on Venezuela’s dress alone. That’s the gypsy way – go big.”

The newlyweds are anticipated to settle in East Yorkshire upon returning from their honeymoon, where they will move into their newly acquired static home.
