Souhan: Iowa's Caitlin Clark is best show in all of college basketball

We don't know much about the injury that's kept Towns sidelined for more than three months. What we do know the longer the Timberwolves allow this to remain a mystery, the more they appear to be hiding something.
Souhan: Releasing Kendricks is sad — and a promising sign for Vikings
The cruel nature of the NFL allows us to heap praise on Eric Kendricks while arriving at the same conclusion as the Vikings: There were flaws in his game that made his release necessary.
