The Basketball Tournament 2025: Everything to Know Ahead of the Semifinals
West Virginia and Wichita State are back in the Final Four. Well, a different type of Final Four. The Mountaineers' alumni team, Best Virginia, and the Shockers' alumni team, Aftershocks, are both set to compete in the semifinal round of The Basketball Tournament (TBT). Best Virginia will take on Eberlein Drive (6 p.m. ET Thursday on FS1 and the FOX Sports app) before the Afterschocks take on We Are D3 (8 p.m. ET Thursday on FS1 and the FOX Sports app). Here's what you need to know about each matchup! Best Virginia vs. Eberlein Drive Best Virginia is led by guard James Reese V, who actually isn't a West Virginia alum. Reese, who played college hoops at North Texas and South Carolina, has been one of the top scorers in TBT. His 22.3 points per game is the eighth-best mark among players who've played at least two games in the tournament. He's also shooting an efficient 44.3% from the field and 35.9% from deep, adding five rebounds and 2.8 assists per game. Power forward Vincent Mitchell is Best Virginia's second-leading scorer, adding 13.5 points and 4.5 rebounds per game. Guard Jarrod West leads the team in assists per game (3.3), while power forward JD Weatherspoon is its leading rebounder (6.8 per game). Eberlein Drive is back in the TBT semifinals for a second straight year. It also has one of the tournament's leading scorers, with guard Gabe York ranking 11th in points per game (19.5) among players who've played in at least two games. He's had two 23-point performances so far in the tournament, including in Eberlein Drive's 88-75 win over Sideline Cancer in the quarterfinals. Unlike Best Virginia, Eberlein Drive isn't associated with any program. York played his college hoops at Arizona, while Eberlein Drive's second-leading scorer, guard Anthony Clemmons, is an Iowa alum. He's averaging 12.5 points per game. Eberlein Drive has also had a handful of players make contributions in TBT. Guard Terrell Brown leads the team in assists (3.3) and steals per game (2.3). Guard Tommy Rutherford and forward Terry Taylor, meanwhile, each lead the team in rebounds per game (6.0). Aftershocks vs. We Are D3 Similar to Best Virginia, the Aftershocks' leading scorer isn't a Wichita State alum, either. Guard Nike Sibande, who played at Miami (Ohio) and Pitt, leads the way in scoring for the Aftershocks, putting up 14.5 points per game. He's also put up highly efficient shooting numbers, making 63.3% of his field goal attempts and 64.3% of his 3-point attempts. Where the Aftershocks have really stood out in this tournament, though, is on the defensive end. They're second in points allowed per game (62.5) among teams who have played at least two games in the tournament. Furthermore, their opponents have shot just 39.8% from the field and 25.9% from deep. That's elite. Beyond Sibande, Marcus Keene (12.5 points per game) and Chevez Goodwin (5.5 points, 6.0 rebounds per game) are among the other top contributors for the Aftershocks. As for We Are D3, their roster mostly consists of players who didn't play Division I hoops, hence the name. But that hasn't stopped them from making a run in TBT. Guard Ty Nichols, a Keene State College alum, has played with D-I pedigree this tournament, averaging 23.3 points and 4.5 assists per game. His 36-point outing helped We Are D3 take down Buddy Boeheim and Boeheim's Army (Syracuse alums) in the second round. Marcus Azor, a UMass Dartmouth alum, is averaging 14.8 points per game, putting up 22 points in We Are D3's third-round win over the Stars of Storrs (UConn alums). The dynamic scoring from We Are D3's backcourt has led to the team averaging 81.3 points per game, which is the 11th-best mark in the tournament. As We Are D3 goes head-to-head with the Aftershocks' elite defense, Thursday's matchup is a true battle of styles. Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?

Twins, Astros still discussing Correa trade: Sources
The 2025 MLB trade deadline arrives at 6 p.m. (ET) today. Join us for live updates and analysis on trades around the league. Getty Images Getty Images By Chandler Rome and Ken Rosenthal Even after acquiring Ramón Urías from the Baltimore Orioles, the Astros remain interested in upgrading their lineup, according to sources briefed on their plans. One option is still a reunion with Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa, who is guaranteed $96 million through the next three seasons and would have to waive his no-trade clause. Correa told reporters on Wednesday night that talks with the Astros were "not something that I think is serious right now"and sources from both teams downplayed the likelihood of a trade. Talks, however, remain ongoing. Houston is also still pursuing starting pitching, but some are worried the club could lose a bidding war in competition for Dylan Cease or Sandy Alcantara. If that happens, the Astros could pivot and to add a right-handed leverage reliever. Getty Images After trading Ryan Helsley and Steven Matz on Wednesday, the Cardinals expect to complete their trifecta of reliever deals before the deadline this evening. Several teams are competing for right-hander Phil Maton, a veteran reliever with extensive postseason experience. He's owed roughly $700,000 for the remainder of the season. "It's not a matter of if (Maton) goes, it's when," a team source said Thursday morning. Getty Images In the Orioles' trade of Ramón Urias to Houston, they got back a right-handed pitcher named Twine Palmer. Bet you didn't know the last pitch thrown for the Orioles by a pitcher named Palmer was thrown by (yep) Jim Palmer, on May 12, 1984. Getty Images With hours to go until the deadline and after bolstering their bullpen, the Mets remain interested in upgrading at center field, people familiar with their plans said. Speculatively, Luis Robert still stands out as a logical fit because he hits left-handed pitching well while playing strong defense with speed. Getty Images Baltimore Orioles right-hander Zach Eflin is going on the injured list, according to sources briefed on the matter. It is still 'very possible' he will be traded, one source said. Eflin's injury is not arm-related and he is expected back during the regular season. In a market already saturated with elite relievers, it seems Athletics closer Mason Miller is another name very much in play as the trade deadline approaches. Yesterday afternoon, Ken Rosenthal reported that the A's were discussing Miller in negotiations for young pitching, and that both New York teams — the Yankees and Mets — were involved. Later, Rosenthal and Dennis Lin reported that the Padres were among the teams eyeing Miller. According to that report: ✍️ Miller, who started six games as a rookie in 2023, appeals to San Diego as a pitcher who could be stretched out next season, if not before then. Another top Padres starter, Michael King, is expected to test free agency this winter. In recent years, the Padres have converted several former relievers to full-time starters, including King, Seth Lugo and Stephen Kolek. Last night, A's manager Mark Kotsay told reporters that Miller was 'unavailable' without explaining why, a situation that suggests a trade could be in the works. So, even after Jhoan Duran and Ryan Helsley have changed teams, the closer market includes Miller, Pete Fairbanks, David Bednar, Carlos Estevez, Camilo Doval, Kyle Finnegan and possibly Robert Suarez. Despite such supply, reporting suggests the prices remain high. Getty Images Tigers: D Guardians: C This is fine. Sewald has a track record, and he'd pitched well after returning from the IL in early July, only to end up right back on the IL. For a player to be named or cash, it's a low-cost addition of a pitcher who could supplement the Tigers bullpen down the stretch, when they might be grateful to have the depth. Fine. Do it. Why not? But the Tigers were, for a while, the best team in baseball this season. They fell hard this month and have since recovered. They've got a chance to do something this October, but so far they've added only a back-end starter (Chris Paddack) and a couple of used-to-be-good relievers (Sewald and Rafael Montero). On its own, this trade is a low-risk attempt to add some depth. But until the Tigers make a move to actually get better in the here and now, it's hard to see this as a worthwhile priority. Getty Images By Ken Rosenthal and Dennis Lin Baltimore Orioles right-hander Charlie Morton is one starting pitcher the San Diego Padres are pursuing as a potential backup plan if they trade right-hander Dylan Cease, according to sources briefed on the discussions. The Padres are involved in multiple talks with multiple teams. Meanwhile, as many as 10 teams are pursuing Morton. The Guardians are sending reliever Paul Sewald, who's on the injured list with a strain in the back of his shoulder, to the Detroit Tigers, in exchange for cash considerations or a player to be named later. Sewald, 35, has made only 18 appearances this season because of a pair of shoulder injuries. Since 2021, he owns a 3.28 ERA. It's the second time in three years that Sewald has been dealt at the deadline, and on both occasions, he was confident he wouldn't be traded. In 2023, the Mariners blitzed through their July schedule to climb back into the race, but they still traded Sewald to the Arizona Diamondbacks, who stormed to the World Series. Just last week, he told The Athletic he thought his injury would keep him from being dealt. Instead, he's headed to the division rival Tigers, who sit atop the AL Central. An MLB source confirms to The Athletic that the Tigers are acquiring right-handed reliever Paul Sewald from Guardians. The Detroit News first reported the deal. Getty Images Shane Bieber was set to be one of the more intriguing trade candidates at the 2023 deadline. And then he suffered an injury. The Guardians hung onto him that winter and had plans to deal him at the 2024 deadline if the season went awry. And then he needed Tommy John surgery (and the season did not, in fact, go awry). Even then, the union persisted between the unanimous 2020 AL Cy Young Award winner and the organization that aided his development from a soft-tossing, unheralded prospect. In December, Bieber signed a one-year, $10 million deal with the Guardians that included a $16 million player option for 2026 or a $4 million buyout. He liked the idea of sticking with the trainers and doctors and coaches who had guided him through his rehab process. Now that the rehab process is nearly over, he's headed to Toronto. Bieber threw 57 pitches over four sharp innings on Tuesday. He should be ready to return to a big-league mound in the next two weeks. For most of the season, the starting rotation seemed like Toronto's obvious area of improvement at the trade deadline. Max Scherzer's thumb cost him months. Eric Lauer had yet to break out. But, as of deadline week, the Jays' rotation group is healthy and seemingly stable. Acquiring Shane Bieber allows Toronto to inject more depth and upside to that group without stealing a spot from one of the current five starters. The Jays also used their financial flexibility in this deal, as Bieber has a $16 million player option for next year. If healthy and flourishing down the stretch, he'll likely opt out. Another injury could force him to take the 2026 guarantee. It's the type of creative move the Jays were looking for this deadline, adding rotation insurance and upside without upsetting the status quo that has Toronto positioned at the top of the American League East. GO FURTHER Blue Jays to bolster rotation with former Cy Young winner Shane Bieber in trade with Guardians: Source Getty Images After acquiring Shane Bieber, Toronto continues to aim high in the bullpen market. The Jays were in on the Minnesota Twins' Jhoan Duran and are also among the teams pursuing the Athletics' Mason Miller, according to sources briefed on their discussions. The San Diego Padres are believed to be mounting the most aggressive pursuit of Miller. It's unclear whether the Jays would part with the package necessary to land a closer who would come with four additional years of control. The frenzied run on relievers that began Wednesday should continue up to the deadline, considering the number of teams in need and the number of late-inning arms still available. The Detroit Tigers are perhaps the team under the most pressure to act. Ranking 28th in the majors in bullpen strikeout rate, the Tigers' acquisition of righty Rafael Montero from the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday was a modest first step, at best. In the AL East alone, the New York Yankees are seeking multiple relievers. The Toronto Blue Jays are still looking for more help after acquiring righty Seranthony Domínguez. The Boston Red Sox might not be done after adding lefty Steven Matz. The Seattle Mariners, a team reported to be heavily in the mix for Jhoan Duran before his trade to the Philadelphia Phillies, are also still looking, along with the Texas Rangers, Milwaukee Brewers, Los Angeles Dodgers and others. Among the relievers still in play, beyond the Athletics' Miller, Twins' Coulombe and Padres' Suarez: the Tampa Bay Rays' Pete Fairbanks; Pittsburgh Pirates' David Bednar and Dennis Santana; St. Louis Cardinals' Phil Maton; Colorado Rockies' Jake Bird, Seth Halvorsen and Victor Vodnik; and Twins' Brock Stewart. GO FURTHER The 8 biggest storylines to watch for on MLB trade deadline day Getty Images The Toronto Blue Jays are in agreement with the Cleveland Guardians on a trade for right-hander Shane Bieber, pending a medical review, sources tell The Athletic . Getty Images The Marlins are a team to watch today for several reasons, including what happens with starters Sandy Alcantara (pictured) and Edward Cabrera, two of the splashiest names on the market. The interest in both Alcantara and Cabrera is very high, league sources said. Two other Miami pitchers to keep in mind: Ronny Henriquez and Calvin Faucher. Miami is fielding interest in both players, people briefed on the situation said. In particular, multiple teams are looking to acquire Faucher, league sources said. Of the two pitchers, he is more likely to get traded. Faucher, 29, has 10 saves with a 3.73 ERA and 41 strikeouts in 41 innings. Henriquez, 25, has a 2.96 ERA in 51 2/3 innings with 71 strikeouts. Both pitchers are under club control for multiple seasons. Teams are also continuing to show interest in the Marlins' outfielders Jesus Sanchez and Dane Myers, league sources said. Getty Images Kepner: Hey Chad! Maybe it's because I just got back from Cooperstown and had a fun conversation with Randy Johnson — Did you know he has Kid Nichols' autograph? Now you do! — but for favorite deals, I've got to go with the Mariners in 1997 and 1998. The first year, they were clumsy buyers. The next, to everyone's surprise, they were shrewd sellers. It turned out that 1997 was their only season with a healthy Johnson, Ken Griffey Jr. and Alex Rodriguez all together as full-time stars. And everyone knew they'd have no chance without upgrading their bullpen. This need crystallized on July 30, when they blew a 7-2 lead in the eighth inning and lost to the Red Sox at Fenway Park. What did they do? Panic! In separate deals, the Mariners acquired three veteran relievers – Paul Spoljaric and Mike Timlin from Toronto and Heathcliff Slocumb from Boston. That's quite a haul, but it came at quite a cost: Jose Cruz Jr. to the Blue Jays and Derek Lowe and Jason Varitek to the Red Sox. Those players would spend a collective 44 seasons in the majors, compiling 76 bWAR. Cruz became a 30-30 guy for the Jays. Lowe and Varitek became core players on the Red Sox curse-breakers of 2004. The Mariners' relief trio, meanwhile, worked 4 ⅓ innings in a 1997 division series loss to Baltimore, allowing 10 hits and 5 earned runs. And when things went sour for the M's in 1998, the team decided to trade Johnson rather than lose him in free agency. (The new team in Arizona, where Johnson lived in the off-season, was expected to make an aggressive push for him, and that's exactly what happened.) In trading Johnson at the 1998 deadline, the Mariners made a terrific deal, though few could have known at the time. Fans expected a haul of recognizable names who could help right away. Instead, the Mariners got pitchers Freddy Garcia and John Halama and infielder Carlos Guillen. The return seemed underwhelming, but all made a near-immediate impact: in 2000, Guillen's walk-off bunt lifted the Mariners to the ALCS, where Garcia and Halama started four games against the Yankees with a 2.14 ERA. All three were part of the ALCS roster again in 2001. Seattle lost both series, but in an indirect way, the Johnson trade paid off for years to come: Garcia became the favorite player of a young pitching prospect in their native Venezuelan named Felix Hernandez, who chose to sign with the Mariners in part because of that connection. Hernandez wore Garcia's No. 34 while becoming the franchise's leader in wins, innings and strikeouts while winning a Cy Young Award and tossing a perfect game. Getty Images Among the relievers the Rangers are pursuing, according to a source briefed on their discussions: The St. Louis Cardinals' Phil Maton and Kansas City Royals' Hunter Harvey. They also like the Pittsburgh Pirates' David Bednar, but believe the price will be too steep. The Colorado Rockies' Jake Bird is another possibility.

Liberty get unfortunate injury update for Fever game
The post Liberty get unfortunate injury update for Fever game appeared first on ClutchPoints. It's been a successful season so far for the New York Liberty, who currently sit with an impressive record of 15-6 coming back from the All-Star break. The Liberty are coming off of their 2024 WNBA championship, which they won in five games against the Minnesota Lynx, and have shown no signs of championship hangover so far this year. The Liberty's first game after the All-Star break will take place at home against the Indiana Fever; however, the Liberty got an unfortunate injury update regarding one of their key players earlier on Tuesday ahead of the contest. 'Liberty center Nyara Sabally has been downgraded to –OUT (Rest),' reported Jackie Powell of the Locked on Women's Basketball podcast on X, formerly Twitter. Powell added that Sabally 'wasn't a participant in shootaround and was getting treatment 'work done out in the back' according to GM Jonathan Kolb during shootaround this morning.' Sabally is one of the key members on a Liberty team that is brimming with talent and has returned essentially every key player from last year's championship run. Meanwhile, the Fever will be without their own star, Caitlin Clark, who suffered a groin injury shortly before the All-Star break that kept her out of the weekend's festivities. Clark has dealt with various injuries so far in her second season. The Liberty are hoping to generate some momentum and begin to peak at the right time as the WNBA playoffs quickly approach. New York is led in scoring by Breanna Stewart, with co-star Sabrina Ionescu right behind her. The Liberty also recently added some more depth to their talented roster by signing former WNBA player Emma Meesseeman, who hadn't played since 2022 but who has won a Finals MVP in her illustrious career, as reported by ESPN. In any case, the Liberty and Fever are slated to get underway on Tuesday evening at 8:00 PM ET from Brooklyn.
