Was able to speak with Jimmy Nichols' mother, Jennifer. The family is optimistic. The pressure in the brain has come down, which will allow doctors to perform another surgery in the next 24 hours. The family asks that you keep them in your prayers. Jimmy still has a long way to go. However, he's a tough kid and will continue to battle. I will continue to keep you informed whenever I receiver word from the family. God bless!

This is a difficult message to share… @jimmynicholsjr5, a former player at @PCFriarsmbb, @VCU_Hoops & @CoastalMBB, has been fighting for his life in Uruguay, where he was playing professionally. Jimmy has undergone several emergency operations and remains in critical condition under 24/7 supervision and care. Over the weekend, doctors warned us to prepare for the worst. Thanks to the incredible efforts of @votetimscott’s office, Jimmy’s parents were able to urgently travel to Uruguay to be by their son’s side. Since their arrival, Jimmy’s outlook has improved greatly. But Jimmy still has a long fight ahead of him — and he and his family need our help. The unforeseen medical, travel and related expenses are staggering. Any contribution, no matter the amount, can make a meaningful difference as his family focuses on Jimmy’s recovery and ultimately bringing him home. First and foremost, the Nichols family asks for your prayers. Please pray for Jimmy, his strength, his healing, and everyone caring for him. If you are able to contribute, please consider helping. If you cannot, sharing this message can make a difference too. Jimmy is fighting. His family is beside him. Let’s make sure they know the basketball community is behind them. 🙏 Pray for Jimmy. gofund.me/5616e8f72

GILLETTE STADIUM IS PRIVATELY OWNED. THIS MEANS THE KRAFT GROUP CAN DECIDE WHO/WHAT GOES ON INSIDE. Whether you agree or disagree with him not allowing Macklemore, the concept of private property is basic.

Devin Carter will be Derrick White Jr.
The Boston Celtics and Devin Carter have agreed to a deal, league sources told @hoopshype. Carter will compete for an NBA roster or two-way spot in camp. Carter averaged 8.9 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.7 assists in 18.4 minutes during 38 games for the Sacramento Kings last season.

You know you are screwed when Bernie Sanders is endorsing your next mayor
Congratulations to David Morales on winning the Democratic primary for Providence Mayor. In November we'll have elected Democratic Socialist mayors in NYC, Seattle, D.C. and Providence. From coast to coast, Americans are clear: No more status quo politics. We want real change.

One point for common sense
"I think you have to be aligned with what the Big Ten and SEC are doing," one Big East coach told me.

The Summer of Dink Pate was fun while it lasted. Unfortunate but the correct decision

This delusion is extremely terrifying
🚨WATCH: A Rhode Island transgender activist likens keeping biological males out of girls' sports to the anti-black segregation that created the Negro Leagues. The activist, who identified themself as "Maeve," made the remarks to the Westerly School Committee on Wednesday regarding an agenda item that would have the district's attorney ask Rhode Island's AG how a recent SCOTUS ruling on transgender athletes applies in Westerly. "There is no argument I have heard for banning trans children from sports that does not sound like it came from a century ago to justify things like the Negro Leagues and other segregated sports leagues to keep people who are equal separated," Maeve said.
