DETROIT (AP) — Patrick Kane scored twice for Detroit to move into sole possession of fourth place on the all-time goals list for NHL players born in the U.S. and lead the Red Wings to a 5-2 victory over the Calgary Flames on Monday night.
Kane has 504 career goals, trailing Mike Modano (561), Keith Tkachuk (538) and Jeremy Roenick (513). The 19th-year veteran entered the night tied with Joe Mullen (502). Earlier this season, Kane passed Modano to become the highest-scoring American-born player in league history. Kane now has 1,383 career points in 1,355 games.
Emmitt Finnie, Moritz Seider and Dominik Shine also scored and Alex DeBrincat had three assists for the Red Wings, who started a four-game homestand by stopping a three-game losing streak.
J.T. Compher added two assists and John Gibson made 25 saves for Detroit, which moved into a tie with Montreal for third place in the Atlantic Division. The Canadiens have two games in hand on the Red Wings, who currently occupy the first wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference.
Morgan Frost scored late in the first period to put the Flames on the board first, but Detroit scored three times in a span of 5:34 early in the second period to take control. Kane had the first and third goals in that surge.
Matt Coronato added a goal and an assist and Dustin Wolf made 20 saves for Calgary, which finished a five-game road trip through the Eastern Conference at 1-4. The Flames, who have the NHL's second-worst record ahead of only Pacific Division rival Vancouver, are 2-7-1 in their last 10 games.
INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Kawhi Leonard is out with a sprained left ankle as the Los Angeles Clippers chase a play-in berth.
He missed Monday night's game against the San Antonio Spurs after getting hurt in the fourth quarter of a 118-109 loss to Sacramento on Saturday.
Leonard is sixth in the NBA in scoring, averaging 28.3 points to go with 6.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists. He's shooting 50% from the floor, 38% from 3-point range and 90% from the free throw line in 53 games.
Leonard can’t afford to miss any more than three games to remain in contention for the league's major awards. Players are required to appear in at least 65 of 82 regular-season games to be eligible for MVP, All-NBA and All-Defensive honors.
Coach Tyronn Lue hopes Leonard isn't out more than a few days.
“I really don't know yet,” he said before the game.
John Collins was set to start in Leonard's place against Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs, who are second in the West.
CLEVELAND, OHIO - NOVEMBER 17: Head coach Kenny Atkinson of the Cleveland Cavaliers talks with Giannis Antetokounmpo #34 of the Milwaukee Bucks during the first half at Rocket Arena on November 17, 2025 in Cleveland, Ohio.

Tuesday’s matchup will be the fourth and final time the Cleveland Cavaliers will take on the Milwaukee Bucks. So far, the Cavs have only had to deal with Giannis Antetokounmpo in one and a half of those games. They could be avoiding him again on Tuesday.
The Bucks have listed Antetokounmpo as questionable for Tuesday’s game with a left ankle sprain. Antetokounmpo left the Bucks’ win over the Indiana Pacers in the second half on Sunday with an injury that head coach Doc Rivers called a likely hyperextension at the time.
The Bucks’ goals for the remainder of the season are unclear. Antetokounmpo has been heavily involved in trade rumors at the deadline. All signs point to him being dealt in the summer. And if that’s the plan, there’s no point in having him play in what seem like meaningless games.

Right now, Milwaukee is five and a half games behind the Charlotte Hornets for the 10th seed, which is the final spot in the Play-In. Additionally, the Bucks have won just two of their last 10 games. It certainly doesn’t feel like there’s much to really play for at this point, especially if it puts Antetokounmpo in harm’s way before a possible trade.
On the season, Antetokounmpo is averaging 27.6 points, 9.8 rebounds, and 5.4 assists per game on 62.4% shooting. Milwaukee has been 11-20 without Antetokounmpo this season and 17-19 when he suits up.
Antetokounmpo isn’t the only player the Bucks could be missing. Starting center Myles Turner is questionable for Tuesday’s game with a right calf strain. Additionally, Ousmane Dieng is questionable due to an illness.
The Cavs will be without Jarrett Allen (knee) for the sixth game in a row. Craig Porter Jr. (groin) and Tyrese Proctor (quad) are also out. Sam Merrill (hamstring) is questionable to return. Jaylon Tyson (ankle) is probable for Tuesday’s game.

The Cleveland Cavaliers haven’t looked like the same team in the last five games without Jarrett Allen. Unfortunately for the Cavs, they will have at least a few more games without their starting center.
The team released a statement on Monday evening that Allen would be out for all three games during the Cavs’ upcoming road trip with right knee tendinitis. That would have him missing Tuesday’s game against the Milwaukee Bucks, Thursday’s game against the Chicago Bulls, and Saturday’s game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The earliest Allen could return would be for next Tuesday’s home matchup against the Orlando Magic.
The Cavs have struggled without Allen in the five games he’s been out. They’ve dropped three of those contests, while giving up 128 and 130 points to bad offenses like Orlando and the Dallas Mavericks. Additionally, James Harden hasn’t been able to replicate the pick-and-roll success that he’s had with Allen with Evan Mobley. Even though the offense hasn’t been the issue, they also haven’t looked great.

Allen first injured his knee in the second half of Cleveland’s March 3 win over the Detroit Pistons. When asked about Allen’s injury on Sunday, head coach Kenny Atkinson reiterated that he doesn’t “anticipate this to be long-term” and that they’re trying to be cautious with the injury with the playoffs around the corner.
Allen was playing the best basketball of his career in the month before the injury. In February, he averaged 22.3 points and 11.5 rebounds per game.
The Cavs have also been without Craig Porter Jr. and Tyrese Proctor in recent games.
Porter had an MRI that confirmed a left groin strain. He was initially injured in Friday’s victory over the Mavs. He’s expected to be sidelined for one to three weeks.
Proctor has been unavailable for the last few games with a right quad strain. Like Allen, he will also be out for the upcoming road trip. The team didn’t give a timetable for his return.
This Cavs’ season has been defined by injuries and trying to work new and returning players back into the lineup. Right now, the only hope is that the team will be healthy when postseason play begins next month.
MADRID (AP) — Pathé Ciss' controversial goal in stoppage time gave Rayo Vallecano a 1-1 draw and shattered visiting Levante’s hopes on Monday of a rare win that would boost its chances of avoiding relegation from La Liga.
Levante started the night second from bottom in the table and went ahead when 20-year-old Carlos Espí headed the opener — his fourth goal in three games — four minutes before halftime.
However, in the fourth minute of second half added time, Ciss stole in at the back post to control a cross and stroke the ball past goalkeeper Mathew Ryan. Although Levante claimed he handled the ball before shooting, Ciss swore there was no touch.
“It wasn’t our day but we can’t always get what we want,” the Senegal midfielder said. “We suffered with a man less and maybe this point will be crucial at the season’s end.”
The man less was Nobel Mendy, who was shown a second yellow eight minutes after halftime.
The red card forced the home side into a reshuffle and it was more dangerous with 10 men than with 11 as Ciss’ last-gasp equalizer proved.
The result extended Rayo’s unbeaten run to six league games and the point lifted it two places into 13th.
Levante remained in the cellar. Although it has seven points from a possible nine in recent weeks, it was three points behind third-from-bottom Elche and five behind Alaves.

Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Phoenix Suns Date: March 17th, 2026 Time: 7:00 PM CDT Location: Target Center Television Coverage: FanDuel Sports Network – North Radio Coverage: Wolves App, iHeart Radio
For a few beautiful, deeply misleading moments in the third quarter against Oklahoma City, the Timberwolves had all of us believing again.
They were swarming defensively. They were forcing the Thunder into ugly, uncomfortable possessions. The reigning NBA MVP, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, had been held to just four first-half points, blanketed by Anthony Edwards on the perimeter and rejected at the rim by Rudy Gobert. Ayo Dosunmu had caught absolute fire in the second quarter, piling up 15 first-half points and drilling threes with confidence. Julius Randle, who had looked like he’d been sleepwalking through parts of the post-All-Star schedule, suddenly seemed awake again, scoring efficiently around the basket and actually looking like the bruising, playoff-useful version of himself.
And despite all the usual self-inflicted nonsense, the turnovers, the loose rebounds they failed to secure, and the extra possessions they gifted away, the Wolves had built an nine-point lead. It wasn’t pristine, but it was gritty, it was competitive, and it felt like Minnesota had a real chance to walk into Oklahoma City, punch the champs in the mouth for the third time in four meetings, and announce to the Western Conference that the rumors of their collapse had been exaggerated.
Then the floor gave way.
Suddenly the defense lost its edge. Rotations were a beat late. Closeouts weren’t quite there. Those Thunder possessions that had looked so difficult in the first half started turning into open threes and comfortable rhythm looks. The Wolves’ offense, which had been hanging together through effort and timely contributions, started to grind and seize up. Ayo cooled off. Julius lost his edge. Edwards was trapped, crowded, doubled, and no one else could consistently rise up and punish Oklahoma City for overcommitting to him. The turnovers kept coming. The offensive rebounds kept coming. The second- and third-chance points kept piling up. And with every careless possession and every missed box-out, you could feel the game slipping.
By the end of it, the Wolves hadn’t just lost. They had been reminded, again, what the difference is between a team that plays like a champion and a team that keeps insisting it can just flip a switch whenever it feels like it. Oklahoma City looked like a team that knows exactly who it is. Minnesota looked like a team still arguing with itself in the mirror.
Now, if you’re feeling generous, and at this point I’m not sure how many Wolves fans still are, you can look at the glass half full and say Minnesota was right there. If they take better care of the ball, if they rebound with more force, if they stop tossing away possessions, maybe we’re talking about a statement win. Maybe we’re talking about a team that weathered a brutal week and still came out looking dangerous. Maybe we’re talking about momentum.
Instead, we’re talking about another demoralizing loss and another example of the gap between a team with championship maturity and one that is still trying to fake it until it makes it.
And now, because the Western Conference is the basketball equivalent of a highway pileup in freezing rain, the Wolves are sitting firmly in the six seed, just a game and a half ahead of the Phoenix Suns and the Play-In. Which means the next game on the schedule, a game that a month ago might have felt like just another meaningful late-season test, is now blaring red lights and sounding sirens.
Because this one is not just important.
This is a full-on HAVE TO WIN game.
Phoenix has already beaten Minnesota twice. One of those losses was the season’s biggest collapse. Holding a sizeable late-game lead on the road in the desert, the Wolves hemorrhaged turnovers and free throws and somehow managed to bleed out in the final minute, snatching defeat from the jaws of what should have been a routine win. The Suns are sitting directly beneath them in the standings, holding the tie-breakers, with a chance to gain serious ground and shove Minnesota even closer to the trapdoor. And with Detroit looming twice, Houston twice, and games against Boston and others still ahead, this is not the time for the Wolves to make their margin for error any thinner than it already is.
This is where the season starts asking serious questions. Can they finally stop playing with their food? Can they take an inferior, injured team seriously on their home floor? Can they act like a group that wants one of those top six spots, or are they going to keep wandering through March like they’re entitled to a playoff berth because of what happened last spring?
The Keys to the Game:
#1 – Take care of the basketball.
The turnovers lately have not just been bad, they’ve been insulting. Against the Clippers and Thunder, Minnesota repeatedly sabotaged itself before the offense even had a chance to function. Against Oklahoma City, the Wolves meaningfully outshot the Thunder, and it didn’t matter because they kept ending possessions before they ever got a real look. You simply cannot beat good teams, or even beat decent teams cleanly, when you’re casually throwing away twenty possessions a game. Against Phoenix, that nonsense has to stop. No gifts. No shortcuts. No helping the opponent do its job.
#2 – Dominate the paint and the glass.
This is where the Wolves catch a real break. Mark Williams, whose last feisty battle with Gobert ended with Rudy’s flagrant two, will not be playing. That matters. A lot. Phoenix’s frontcourt is thinner now, and that means Gobert should walk into this game with the expectation that the paint belongs to him. Sunday in Oklahoma City was a pedestrian game for Rudy by his standards. Fine. Flush it. This is the bounce-back spot. He needs to inhale rebounds, protect the rim, and turn the paint into a miserable experience for anybody wearing a Suns jersey.
Randle also has to build on the good things he showed against OKC. There were real signs of life there. He found his shot. He was physical. It was in Phoenix last year that he started to really wake up late in the season and carry that into a strong postseason. This would be an awfully good time to start writing that script again.
#3 – Win the little hustle battles.
Phoenix is not overwhelming anybody with talent. They’re not steamrolling teams because they have more stars. They’re surviving and climbing because they play hard, they stay connected, and they do all the boring little things that add up to wins. They scrap for rebounds. They stay in possessions. They don’t beat themselves quite as often. That’s the exact mentality Minnesota has to mirror. No getting outworked. No giving up second-chance points. No mental nonsense at the free-throw line. Every small play in this game matters because the standings say it does.
#4 – Anthony Edwards has to look like Anthony Edwards.
Oklahoma City made life miserable for him and deserves credit for it. They loaded up, they doubled, they forced the ball out of his hands, and to Ant’s credit he largely stayed composed and used that attention to open things up for Ayo and others. But this is not the same kind of challenge. Dylan Brooks, one of the guys who tends to turn games against Ant into full-on personal vendettas, will not be there. Without him, Phoenix does not have the same kind of defensive shell. This should be an Ant game. A 40-piece kind of night where he bends the game to his will and makes a statement that Phoenix is not grabbing his team’s spot on his home floor.
That doesn’t mean hero ball. It doesn’t mean dribbling the air out of the ball and firing late-clock nonsense. It means smart aggression, rim pressure, and using his gravity to open everything else up.
#5 – Play intense, connected defense – especially on the perimeter.
The Wolves cannot let Devin Booker get loose. He cannot be allowed to stroll into the paint, find comfort, and start building one of those silky 34-point nights. He needs to be put in a straightjacket. This has to be a high-energy, high-effort, highly communicative defensive performance. The Wolves have the size advantage. They have the home crowd. They should have the desperation edge.
Phoenix, in a lot of ways, is playing with house money. They weren’t supposed to be here. To be fair, Minnesota wasn’t supposed to be here fighting to stay out of the play-in either. The difference is the Wolves put themselves here with all the avoidable nonsense, including the previous two losses to this same team.
That’s why the heat has been turned all the way up now. No more moral victories. This is one of those nights where the Wolves need to act like a team that understands what’s at stake. The talent edge is theirs. The size edge is theirs. The urgency edge had better be theirs. If they can’t get up for this game, if they can’t beat an inferior and injured Suns team that is openly trying to take their playoff spot, then at some point you have to stop doing the hopeful fan thing and come to the difficult conclusion: Maybe they don’t deserve one of those six spots after all.
But that’s the beauty and cruelty of the NBA in March. You don’t have to answer the question in theory. You answer it on the floor.
Tuesday night at Target Center, the Wolves have a chance to do exactly that.

The Dallas Mavericks (23-45) head to Louisiana to face of against an old friend/foe in the New Orleans Pelicans (22-46). Dallas took the Cavaliers to the woodshed on Sunday afternoon and have had a full day to recover and get ready for tonight’s game. The Pelicans, meanwhile, just keep winning. They have no incentive to lose, seeing as they don’t own this year’s draft pick, but it’s been fascinating watching them from afar (yes I know they lose to the Rockets in maddening fashion on Friday).
Here are the main things you need to know:
WHO: Dallas Mavericks vs New Orleans Pelicans
WHAT: Heading to Louisiana for a Southwest Division game
WHERE: Smoothie King Center, New Orleans, Louisiana
WHEN: 7:00 pm CST
HOW: KFAA Channel 29, MavsTV streaming, NBA League Pass
The Mavericks injury report is worth taking a gander at before tipoff. The two-way guys are all questionable, so the coaching staff is still deciding if they should play or not. Daniel Gafford is going to miss this game, as is Klay Thompson (each is doubtful as of this writing). Caleb Martin is questionable. Everyone else should be playing unless I cannot read (entirely possible).
The New Orleans side of the report is clean, with Dejounte Murray listed as questionable with an illness. deThe line is a whopping 8.5 favoring the Pelicans. That reads weird to me but Dallas is on their fourth game in five nights and New Orleans has been off for a few days. Still, that’s a massive line for one bad team to be favored over the other. We’ll see shortly I suppose!
Be sure to chime in with your predictions in the comments!
Consider joining Josh and me on Pod Maverick live after the game on YouTube, we should start LATE. Thanks so much for spending time with us here at Mavs Moneyball. Let’s go Mavs!

“Amazingly, this is the first meeting between the two teams this season. This is the second night of a back-to-back and game two of a six game road trip for the Blazers. Former Nets assistant coach Tiago Splitter is coaching the Blazers these days. And it feels like a lifetime ago, but Splitter got the job because the feds got Chauncey Billups in a sweep. If he can get them into the playoffs, there’s a chance he’ll be there permanently.” | Brian Fleurantin

LONDON (AP) — Igor Thiago celebrated his first call-up to the Brazil squad by scoring Brentford’s second goal in a 2-2 thriller against Wolves in the Premier League on Monday.
Nearing halftime, the striker tapped into the empty net for his 19th league goal of the season.
A few minutes earlier, Michael Kayode's glancing header put Brentford 1-0 up. It was his first goal in his 41st league appearance for the Bees.
Adam Armstrong pulled a goal back for Wolves a minute before halftime to round off a thrilling half.
Wolves, the league's bottom side, equalized with 13 minutes left when Tolu Arokodare headed home at the back post.
The result extended Wolves' unbeaten league run to three games but it remained bottom of the table, 12 points from safety.
“We know where we are in the league, it hasn’t been good enough," Armstrong said, "but since I’ve come in it’s been very positive. The results have been changing. To get my first goal is nice but the main thing is to get the three points. We didn’t quite get that today but we’ll take the positives.”
Brentford stayed in seventh place, two points ahead of Everton but three behind Chelsea.
"We’re disappointed to have let the game slip," Bees captain Jordan Henderson said.
Just hours before kickoff, Brazil coach Carlo Ancelotti named Thiago in the squad for friendlies against France in Boston on March 26 and Croatia in Orlando four days later.
The former Cruzeiro, Ludogorets and Brugge striker was one of nine forwards included in a 26-man list that featured Endrick of Lyon, Rayan of Bournemouth, and João Pedro of Chelsea but no Neymar, who has underperformed recently at Santos.
He has excelled for Brentford this season and could have scored one or two more against Wolves. His 19-goal tally is the highest ever by a Brentford player in one Premier League season.

CREMONA, Italy (AP) — Fiorentina beat fellow Serie A struggler Cremonese 4-1 in its biggest away win of the season and moved four points clear of the relegation zone on Monday.
It was only the second time all season that Fiorentina scored more than three goals in one game and moved it into 16th place.
The loss extended Cremonese’s winless run to 14 matches and left it third from last, four points behind Fiorentina and three behind Lecce.
Pisa and Verona shared last place.
Fabiano Parisi put Fiorentina ahead with a fine solo effort after 25 minutes and Roberto Piccoli doubled the when he converted a perfect pass from Robin Gosens.
Dodo made it 3-0 with a lovely solo goal early in the second half and although David Okereke pulled a goal back for Cremonese nearly an hour in, Albert Gudmundsson added the fourth for Fiorentina.
