Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever were back at the friendly confines of Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis as they welcomed another one of the league’s biggest stars, Paige Bueckers, and the Dallas Wings.Now, there’s been a lot of drama in the WNBA as of late, and this one delivered some of that as well.Just a different brand of drama. Not the clotheslining and rage-tweeting-about-White-privilege-from-the-locker-room kind.DIJONAI CARRINGTON RESPONDS TO ‘WHITE PRIVILEGE’ POST, BUT LEAVES MEANING OF IT STILL UNCLEAR The Wings entered the game shorthanded, with Azzi Fudd among those sidelined.Still, despite missing some serious firepower, Dallas kept things close.It started slowly, with both teams failing to put more than 20 points on the board in the first quarter, but the offense ramped up a touch in the second quarter, with the Wings taking a 37-35 lead to the locker room.Speaking of which, it was at the very end of the first half that one of the most notable moments of the game occurred.Clark rolled her ankle while the Fever were on defense and, worse yet, hobbled off the court to the locker room.The Fever were hoping to take over first place in the Eastern Conference, and that would be tough…

In the midst of the MLB season, when off days are few and far between, players simply have to take what the schedule gives them when it comes to getting out on the golf course. For the Los Angeles Angels, one of those days happened to be August 3, MLB trade deadline day, and with the team on the East Coast, it was as good an opportunity as any to get out to Mike Trout’s private club, Trout National.With the Angels owning a record of 43-69 at the deadline and the front office going full-on sell mode, what was meant to be a stress-free day on the links turned into a complete and total mess.The Tiger Woods-designed Trout National is a private club with a budget of $100 million located in the 12-time All-Star’s hometown of Vineland, New Jersey. The club is the definition of private, with only a select number of golfers stepping foot on the property; therefore, it’s fair to assume the dozen teammates Trout welcomed to play were looking forward to the experience.
