Philadelphia 76ers coach Nick Nurse was at Carroll National Golf Club when everything changed.
It started with an incoming phone call from LeBron James and ended with a decision made two weeks later.
Nurse teed up a final act for James and a new beginning for the long-suffering 76ers. Can he deliver?

#Eagles QB Jalen Hurts, who is out for the season after several blood clots were revealed in his lungs, has been undergoing tests for days.
Before the London game, Hurts was in the hospital until 4 am and did not sleep because sleep was a risk. He played without having slept.

“I’m old. I’ve paid my home off,” said Ray Warner, a 72-year-old Akron resident. “Why would I pay property tax?”
Across the country, homeowners are asking the same question and revolting against property taxes at a scale not seen in a half century.

Jordan Love was 14 when he lost his dad. The @packers QB remembers him and how he was one of his biggest supporters: “My dad actually wanted to name me Michael Jordan. That’s real. Michael Jordan Love. My mom vetoed it, thank God.
When I say my dad taught me everything, I really mean everything. We’d be out in the yard from the time I could walk — no, really from the time I could stand. Football, basketball, every sport imaginable. There’s a picture of me from when I was a baby and my dad is putting me up on a race horse. I’m like one, in my diaper, and I’m chilling up on some Secretariat-looking dude.
My dad’s motto was, ‘Try everything.’
He just had this relentless positivity about him. In his mind, me and my sisters could really do anything.
Him and my mom were both police officers. My dad was a sergeant for the Bakersfield Police Department and my mom was California Highway Patrol, but they couldn’t have been more different personalities. The smile never left my dad’s face. My mom, she was the yin to his yang. She was all business. She had an aura, you know? And that aura said, ‘Did you do your homework?’
Me and my friends would be out in the yard playing capture the flag or whatever, and she’d come home from work rocking those police aviators, and all my boys would be shook.
‘Don’t you boys have a pop quiz tomorrow?’
‘Yo, how’s she even know about that???’
One of those moms. You know the type.
My dad, he was my road dog. He used to pick me up after working a double shift and we’d pull up straight to the Little League field in his police cruiser. He’d be in the outfield helping coach with his full BPD uniform on, beeper in the belt buckle and everything. Everybody in town knew ‘Big O.’ Everybody loved him.
He was literally always just there.
To me, there’s no higher praise for a dad. In almost every memory I have. He was there.
That was my partner, man.
There’s this photo that I love of him and me, from when I was really little. He’s passed out on the edge of the bed in the middle of the day, taking a nap, probably after we were playing around outside for hours, and I’m laying on his chest, completely passed out right with him.
I can honestly say before July 13, 2013, I had pretty much the perfect upbringing. But that’s the crazy thing about life. You think you got all the time in the world. You think nothing is ever going to change.
And then it changes.” playerstribu.ne/JLove

Sarah Crichton and Len Berman, divorcés in their 70s who met on OkCupid in January 2020, both maintain their own apartments in the same Brooklyn Heights co-op building. Len owns unit 8J; Sarah’s place, unit 7G, is one flight down.
Len had bought his apartment following the end of his 35-year marriage. When he moved into his new home in the spring of 2022, “he was so excited,” says Sarah. That fall, they got married and she started living at Len’s nearly full time. But Sarah felt that the apartment reflected him more so than her.
To give each other their own spaces, the couple first considered buying a two-bedroom apartment together or renting a studio that Sarah could use as an office. But about six months after they got married, Sarah spotted an open house for an apartment downstairs from Len’s. “We walked in, and I whispered to Len, ‘I want this!’ So we bought it that afternoon, basically.”
For a couple who maintains separate homes, Sarah and Len spend a lot of time together. After their morning coffee and cards at Sarah’s place, Len heads back upstairs to work on the sci-fi novel he’s been writing while Sarah works in her bedroom downstairs, which she’s converted into a home office.
When people hear of their upstairs-downstairs arrangement, no one is shocked. “Everyone goes, ‘Oh my God, that’s just the most ideal situation,’” says Sarah. “And it is!” “We both get to express ourselves without oppressing the other,” says Len. There is a danger, of course, that the separate spaces might enable separate lives, so they established a firm rule early on: They never sleep alone.
