Joel Embiid will make season debut against Knicks
Shams Charania: Joel Embiid’s three-game suspension will span Wednesday vs. Clippers, Friday vs. Lakers and Sunday vs. Hornets – meaning the former league MVP is set to make his season debut in NBA Cup opener against the Knicks on Nov. 12 in Philadelphia, sources tell ESPN.
The extent of the coach’s health issue isn’t fully known, but sources told ESPN that Popovich is at home and resting. Johnson spoke to Popovich on Sunday and said, “he’s in good spirits.” “Obviously, the circumstances are unique,” Johnson said of his conversation with Popovich. “But as much continuity and familiarity we can have I think is what we’re looking for. That’s what we know Pop would want. He said he wants us to do it. We have talked and nothing changes.”
Gerald Bourguet: The Suns are listing Bradley Beal (right elbow sprain) as probable for tomorrow’s game against the Heat. Jaime Jaquez Jr. (gastroenteritis) and Kevin Love (return to competition reconditioning) are out for Miami
Danny Cunningham: Dean Wade is out tomorrow night for the #Cavs against the Pelicans. Caris LeVert and Jaylon Tyson are questionable.
The source told ESPN that the combined entity aims to be one of the most important companies in sports content globally. Discussions, earlier reported by Bloomberg, have been ongoing for the past few months, the source told ESPN. The impetus for the mutual interest came from the shared desire to reach scale across television, film and advertising together.
Former Knicks radio broadcaster Brendan Brown tragically died at the age of 54 on Sunday due to health complications, his wife announced on Facebook. His wife, Kate Brown, wrote in the post that the family had been in “shock” and was still processing Brown’s passing. “He cared deeply for his friends and family and we’re going to miss him so much,” she wrote. Brown, the son of Hall of Fame coach Hubie Brown, worked for MSG Network from 2008-23, when the two “decided to part company.”
