So the Packers opted not to expend a high draft pick on a cornerback even though they knew there was a distinct possibility Jaire Alexander wasn’t coming back. Good luck to Jeff Hafley.

Brewers could catch a good one in upcoming MLB draft:

For a team that doesn’t have a first-round draft pick, the Bucks have shown more than a passing interest in several projected first rounders. That includes Carter Bryant, an athletic 3-and-D wing from Arizona, and shooting guard Nique Clifford of Colorado St. Both players

There are a passel of teams like the Knicks, Warriors, Raptors and Heat who would love to lure Giannis Antetokounmpo away from the Bucks. But those teams don’t have the package of players and high draft picks to satisfy the Bucks. Still, those teams could still get into the

The TV ratings for the NBA Finals have been a disaster. And that’s unfortunate because the Thunder and Pacers have played some terrific and entertaining basketball. But the real reason I’v thoroughly enjoyed this series is because neither team is obsessed with shooting the 3.

You know Thanasis Antetokounmpo is breathing easier these days, knowing his brother Giannis is staying with the Bucks. After all, it virtually guarantees him a roster spot. Heck, on this discombobulated roster, he might now even play big minutes.

It’s not even the midway point of the season, but the Brewers 8-7 victory over the Cubs was huge. Instead of falling 7.5 games behind the first-place Cubs, it pulled the Brewers to within 5.5 games. A much-needed boost of confidence.

The Bucks, always looking for shooters, worked out ex-Northwestern guard Ty Berry Sunday. Berry shot 43 and 39 percent from beyond the arc the last two seasons. Another Big Ten product, Jaden Akins of Michigan, also participated in the workout. Akins played 72 games the last two

Some last-minute Bucks pre-draft workouts: — PG Tyrese Hunter, a Racine native who ended his fine college career at Memphis after excelling at Iowa State and Texas. — SG Max Shulga, a native of Kyiv, Ukraine, who finished his college career on a high note by averaging 15 points

What a resounding message the Brewers sent the Dodgers. This team isn’t only one of the most entertaining ones but, as they convincingly showed in sweeping the Dodgers, one of the best.

The MLB draft is today and here’s a great mock draft by Dan Zielinski III.

What an entertaining All-Star Game. Props to MLB.

This clip was one of several cool moments of the MLB All-Star Game. Maybe the best All-Star Game in any sport in eons.

The Bucks desperately need a certifiable, No. 2 scorer. Losing Brad Beal to the Clippers is a major blow for them.

With the Bengals and Trey Hendrickson miles apart on a new deal, some teams are hoping to acquire the all-world defensive end. I’m told the Packers aren’t among them.

Minnesota Twins star Byron Buxton, who says he loves playing for Twins, on staying with the Twins: "I can't be traded. I got a no-trade clause. I'm a Minnesota Twin for the rest of my life.” Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo, who says he “loves Milwaukee”, on whether he’ll

I asked three NBA officials, who primarily deal in player personnel, if they thought the Spurs would trade Stephon Castle and Dylan Harper as part of a monster package deal (other players and picks) for Giannis Antetokounmpo. All three said yes. If that is indeed the case, the

The Packers have won a league-best 13 NFL Championships. What do they have to do this season to win their 14th? open.spotify.com/episode/5OmpUr…
