The Miami Heat will be looking for a win after a rough road trip as they host the Houston Rockets on Saturday afternoon.
Miami loves to run the floor, and I’m banking on that to be enough to hit the Over in my Rockets vs. Heat predictions.
Let’s do a full breakdown of this afternoon’s matchup in my free NBA picks for Saturday, February 28.
Rockets vs Heat prediction
Rockets vs Heat best bet: Over 225.5 (-110)
Both teams have hit the Over in their last three games. While the Houston Rockets don’t always play that way, it’s business as usual for the Miami Heat, who have averaged a total of 236.2 ppg on the season.
Miami plays at the fastest pace in the NBA, averaging 106.7 possessions per game, two more than its closest competitor. All those possessions will suit the Rockets, as Houston is ninth in the NBA in offensive efficiency, even though they normally slow down the pace.
The combination of scoring punch and a fast tempo make the Over tonight’s play.
Rockets vs Heat same-game parlay
The Rockets are the better team and have won four of their last five, which makes me confident they can pull out a win in Miami tonight.
Kevin Durant will be key to that effort, as he’s coming off a 40-point effort against the Magic and has scored 30+ in three of his last five games.

In case everything collapses in May, the Knicks showed Giannis what New York’s about on Friday.
The Greek Freak watched from the sidelines as his current and future teams faced each other in Milwaukee.
Here’s what was said before and after the affair.
.@SbondyNBA: "Next stretch…San Antonio then Toronto, OKC, Denver, Lakers…"
Mike Brown: "That's too many games for me to think about…I just take it one game at a time. I know we got San Antonio 1pm Sunday. Just trying to figure out how we're gonna prepare to play them" pic.twitter.com/TJ6WamNPmI
“Like, I said, those guys are like the ninth and 10th guy [in the rotation], 10th and ninth guy, however, you want to call it and I’ll make the call as we go along. But everybody has to make sure that they keep themselves ready.”
On keeping the backup forward spot fluid:
“It could be Jeremy tonight. It could be Mo tomorrow night. Mo has played well. He’s gotten better. Jeremy just hasn’t had an opportunity to. And the biggest thing is, obviously between the two guys is Jeremy is in his fourth season, and he’s a little bigger. He’s a little stronger and he knows the league a little bit better.”
On the Knicks’ offense clicking against Milwaukee:
“This is how we played offensively throughout most of the year. So for us to be able to space the ball correctly, make quick decisions with the basketball while touching the paint, playing off two feet, was huge. We got a lot of mileage just from playing the game the right way. So I applaud our guys for playing the way they did on both sides of the ball tonight.”
On the team’s improved physicality and pace:
“Our physicality offensively was there because we set screens the right way and then we played fast. So it takes all of us to do it and when you do it and have one of those guys [like Brunson], he’s going to be able to break loose. That was good to see tonight.”
“Probably just ball movement and then shoot with confidence. we made shots today. That’s how it goes: Sometimes you miss some shots. Next thing you know, you make them. That’s how it goes, but just taking the right shots [and] moving the ball.”
On responding to Milwaukee’s second-half push:
“Just knowing they’re a great team coming out. Trying to get stops and just play fast and play in transition.”
On the significance of the win before heading home for a Sunday matinee:
“Any game you win is big time. Winning in the NBA is very hard so we never take it for granted but the momentum going back home to protect home court. It’s cool but we play again on Sunday, so I’m just ready for the next game.”
On staying ready despite the Jeremy Sochan-led rotation changes:
“Everybody [has been telling me to stay ready]. Everybody, for real: the players, the staff. … First year, I’m a rookie, so everything is not going to be great. So I just have to stay ready and wait until my name gets called.”
"It's important to battle thru adversity; when you're in a playoff setting you may lose one, you gotta get next…Show we can bounce back quick…but consistency…keep building off this…be the best team we can be come late April"
On tuning out trade speculation and outside noise:
“I’m not going to have to change how I live and how I approach work, how I approach life because of one instance. That’s just a bump in the road. I continue to be myself regardless of what people say, what the noise is. I’m going to work on my game. I’m going to continue to be who I am as a person. I’m going to approach life the way I approach it. It’s gotten me this far. It’s gotten me a beautiful fiancée, a great family that’s all healthy and happy. I mean, it’s done well. It doesn’t always need to just be about basketball. It’s gotten me well in life. It’s kept me centered. It’s kept me focused. It’s kept me engaged and motivated to continue to attack every day with the same competition and competitive spirit.”
Jalen Brunson
On focusing on the process over the results:
“Let’s not be results-based. Let’s be process-based. And the process wasn’t there (against Cleveland).”
“It’s going to be a process coming back. I’m feeling the love from the whole organization. They want me back but they want me back right. So that’s the main thing.”
On whether he’ll return during the regular season:
“That’s always the goal, for sure. But right now there’s no exact timeline.”
On the early stages of his rehab:
“It’s really a slow process. So I’m starting to do some form shooting (shooting without jumping). And I’m starting to do a few strengthening exercises for the area I was injured.”
On traveling with the team during the healing process:
“I just wanted to be with the guys. A lot of the time you can be in an isolation mindset being alone. So I feel like being around the guys, and them uplifting me, and me being able to see things from the sideline and do what I do for them. Help them out in any way I can.”
On a potential pairing with Jose Alvarado:
“I’ve always prided myself on being a spark, being an energy guy. Just to have another guy to go out there and battle with is going to be amazing.”
Jose Alvarado
On teaming up with McBride in the backcourt:
“I’ll be in a better rhythm when he comes back so hopefully when we get together, we make some noise.”
Jonah Tong’s 2025 campaign was about as strong an advertisement for Triple-A baseball as one can make.
Tong absolutely eviscerated minor league competition last season. In 22 starts, he pitched to a 1.43 ERA with 179 strikeouts in 113.2 IP. Those eye-popping numbers were enough to earn Tong the Minor League Pitching Prospect of the Year award, beating out a crop which included Blue Jays flamethrower Trey Yesavage, who put together a pair of double-digit strikeout performances in last year’s postseason. Nolan McLean didn’t have those kinds of numbers at the minor league level, nor did Brandon Sproat. Even the last generation of Mets aces (Jacob deGrom, Noah Syndergaard, Matt Harvey, Steven Matz, and Zack Wheeler) didn’t dominate the minor leagues to that extent.
But after his promotion to the majors, it became apparent that Tong may have needed just a bit more time to develop. Both McLean and Sproat had at least 80 innings pitched at Triple-A. Tong didn’t even have 12. All but two of his scintillating starts came with Double-A Binghamton, and while he didn’t so much as allow a run in either start with Triple-A Syracuse, sometimes the value of the minor leagues is learning how to pitch without your best stuff, how to have a bad start and bounce back the next week, or simply how to compete in a league against hitters who will make better adjustments each time they face you.
Tong’s cup of coffee in the majors — which would more accurately be described as an emergency espresso shot for a deteriorating Mets pitching staff — yielded a 7.71 ERA. But that hasn’t seemed to zap anyone’s excitement about the 22-year-old fireballer, nor should it. Tong is still ranked as the No. 46 prospect in baseball according to MLB.com, and Amazin’ Avenue recently ranked him the organization’s No. 3 prospect behind McLean and Carson Benge. Plus, he certainly showed flashes of enormous potential in the big leagues — just a lack of consistency. In two of his five starts, he dominated by throwing at least five innings and allowing no more than one run. But in the other three starts, he simply couldn’t stop the bleeding, allowing a total of 15 runs in just 13 innings. Being able to make in-game adjustments and limit damage in those outings is exactly what Triple-A is for, no matter how good a player’s stuff is. And lucky for Tong, his stuff is exceptionally good.
In addition to giving us a sneak preview of Tong on the Citi Field mound, his stint in the majors last season gave us a closer look at just how elite his arsenal can be. According to Statcast, his lively four-seam fastball only drops 10.7 inches. Tong’s curveball, meanwhile, averaged a whopping 62.7 inches of vertical drop. That’s almost as much drop as Jose Altuve’s height. Weighted for velocity and extension, the vertical movement on Tong’s fastball and curveball would have both ranked first among all right-handed starting pitchers in the majors had he thrown enough to qualify. Then there’s Tong’s changeup, a pitch which yielded a .227 opponent batting average and 22.2% Whiff. This spring, he’s been working to further develop a cutter, an evolution of the slider that he’s previously thrown.
The pieces of the puzzle are all there. One day Tong will be able to fit everything together at the major league level, but for now, he’s still honing his repertoire, stamina, and command. Perhaps he’ll dominate out of the gate, and by mid-May the organization will feel he’s ready for another crack at The Show. Perhaps he’ll need to take one step back to take two steps forward, and we won’t see Tong again until late in the summer, if at all this season.
It’s easy to dream of the homegrown duo of McLean and Tong carrying the Mets to victory in 2026. While it’s unfair to put that kind of pressure on anyone, much less two players who have a combined 13 starts in the majors, at least McLean’s 2025 performance and minor league experience make such expectations a smidgen more realistic. Tong’s ceiling is still just as high as his Lincecum-esque armslot, but we shouldn’t expect him to grasp all of that potential in 2026. Patience is a difficult virtue to maintain in baseball, but when it comes to prospects, patience is sometimes a practical necessity.
If Tong displays more consistency in even just a handful of starts at the major league level in 2026, it will be a successful step forward for the young right-hander. For now, he should get the time he deserves to hone his craft in Triple-A before returning to the Big Apple.

Sunday is the first day of March, a month in which there will be real baseball games that count toward the standings. But the Dodgers open the month facing the Angels in a Cactus League battle at Camelback Ranch.
Landon Knack starts on the mound for the Dodgers, making his second appearance this spring. He pitched a scoreless inning on Monday against the Seattle Mariners at Camelback Ranch.

The Carolina Hurricanes have defeated their first playoff opponent in each of their seven seasons in which Rod Brind’Amour has been behind the bench.
The quality of those teams has been a mixed bag. In 2019, they slayed a behemoth in the reigning Stanley Cup champion Washington Capitals. In 2022, they knocked off a 107-point Boston Bruins team in a seven-game thriller.
More recently, they’ve gotten quality draws to start their bids for the Stanley Cup. Last year, it was a banged up New Jersey Devils group without Jack Hughes and some key defensemen that never stood much of a chance. The prior two seasons, it was very pedestrian New York Islanders squads.
With seven straight years with a playoff series won, the Hurricanes are tied with the Islanders dynasties of the early 1980s for the third-longest such streak. They’re two away from catching the Broad Street Bully-era Flyers, and three away from tying two different iterations of the Montreal Canadiens for the longest streak in NHL history.
If Carolina wants to run that stretch to eight this spring, it’s going to have to defeat a better team than it has the past few first rounds.
Here’s a look at the candidates the Canes could face in mid-April, where they stand, and what could make them a challenging matchup.
Montreal Canadiens
If the season ended today and went by raw points and not points percentage, this would be the matchup. It’s an interesting one.
Comparing just the skaters, Montreal is close on paper. The top line of Juraj Slafkovsky, Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield is up there with any in the league.
Lane Hutson and Noah Dobson provide oodles of offense from the back end, and Ivan Demidov is living up to the hype with 47 points in 58 games in his rookie season.
They’re not just top heavy, either. Oliver Kapanen is a quality young forward in a depth role, and when healthy, they have capable size and defensive ability with a bit of scoring touch littered all over their bottom six.
There’s one big problem though. Montreal’s goalies can not stop a beach ball. Jakub Dobes is rocking a .892 save percentage, and incumbent starter Sam Montembeault is having a nightmare season at a .874. Rookie Jacob Fowler has been solid with a .904 in his 10 appearances, but it’s hard to see this franchise turning the crease over to a rookie in such a high-leverage playoff opportunity for this emerging, young team.
The time for being happy just to be there was last year when the Capitals handled them in five. There are expectations this time. If the Habs add a goalie at the deadline, look out. Otherwise, Carolina would likely be able to survive a team with that as a major issue.
Buffalo Sabres
No. No, no, no. No thank you. That is what I say to the idea of drawing the Buffalo Sabres in a playoff series.
Are the Hurricanes better? Definitely. Should they win on paper? Certainly.
But there is something about these teams coming off of extended playoff droughts finally getting their chance in the dance that puts out some major team-of-destiny energy.
The Sabres have been absent from the Stanley Cup Playoffs since all the way back in 2011. That drought is the longest in the league by far, and it’s even longer than the one the 2019 Hurricanes snapped.
Do you remember how excited you were to have playoff hockey back in Raleigh in 2019? Do you remember the home ice advantage the fans created in that first-round series against a superior Capitals squad?
That’s what facing off with Buffalo invites. A talented team with a nothing-to-lose mentality with a rabid fan base ready to make life miserable for an opponent.
That’s to say nothing of this very talented roster led by Olympic gold medalist Tage Thompson and Swedish star Rasmus Dahlin on the back end. This defense is way deeper than you’d expect. Mattias Samuelsson has taken massive steps forward, and Bowen Byram has improved. Michael Kesselring needs to get healthy, but you throw him into the mix with the other three and then add former first overall pick Owen Power? Loaded.
Josh Doan, Ryan McLeod, Jack Quinn and Peyton Krebs add quality young-ish depth up front to go with veterans Alex Tech and Jason Zucker.
Alex Lyon and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen are finally providing strong goaltending, as well.
Boston Bruins
If the Sabres are a surprise because they’re overcoming their recent history, the Bruins are a surprise because they’re delivering better results than the talent on the roster suggests they should be capable of.
David Pastrnak is of course the star up front, but old friend Morgan Geekie has broken out as a bonafide top-end goalscorer, and fellow old friend Elias Lindholm has bounced back from a disastrous effort last season to provide some level of competency down the middle.
Center is still the weak point in Boston, though, as goalie Jeremy Swayman is back into form this season, and Charlie McAvoy leads a solid, even if unspectacular, unit on the backend.
While a glance at the roster suggests a ho-hum team, the emergence of entertaining young players like Fraser Minten, Alex Steeves and Marat Khusnutdinov have exponentially increased the watchability of these Bruins compared to their counterparts last year.
This is another team on this list against whom the Hurricanes would be favored, maybe even pretty comfortably, but it’s another roster that if it gets hot for a couple weeks could present some big issues.
Detroit Red Wings
This is an interesting one. Detroit checks all the boxes for a worthy playoff team. They’ve got star players at center in Dylan Larkin and defense in Moritz Seider.
They also have a pair of impactful wingers in Alex DeBrincat and Lucas Raymond at the top of their lineup.
John Gibson provides solid play between the pipes, and they’ve already shown to be a challenging matchup for the Hurricanes in the regular season.
Simon Edvinsson and Axel Sandin-Pellikka provide strong upside on defense, but the forward depth is a possible issue here in a playoff series.
The Wings, like every team in the top half of the Atlantic, have been playing incredible hockey for a while now. If the Hurricanes face one of these Atlantic teams, it could look comparable to that 107-point 2022 Bruins squad that finished fourth in the division.
Washington Capitals
After a shockingly strong regular season that saw them claim the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference in 2024-25, many predicted a fall back to earth for the Capitals.
Not many were brave enough to peg them as a team outside the playoffs entirely, but that’s where they sit right now. A big win over Vegas on Friday helps their chances, but they’re two points behind a Bruins team that has three games in hand on them for the second wild card spot at the time of this writing.
But if the Capitals were overrated last year when the Canes sent them home with relative ease in the second round, they’re underrated this season.
Logan Thompson is still the sort of goalie who can steal a series. They still have the sort of physical, defensive buy-in from most of their forwards that translates well to the spring. Jakob Chychrun, Alex Ovechkin and Aliaksei Protas provide valuable finishing ability.
The lack of elite talent up front will hold this team back, but with all the other ingredients, Washington is not a first-round matchup I’d be clamoring for personally.
New York Islanders
This is certainly not your grandfather’s New York Islanders, but it’s definitely not your New York Islanders either.
Sure, Patrick Roy is still the coach, and they’re still largely dependent upon goaltender Ilya Sorokin turning in elite performances on a regular basis, but there’s something different about this team from the past iterations the Canes have easily sent home in the spring.
It’s largely about Matthew Schaefer, the jaw-droppingly good rookie defenseman who has taken the league by storm as he waltzes to the Calder Trophy.
He’s a minute-munching blue liner who skates like the wind and has a finishing touch that would put many quality top-six forwards to shame. He recently broke the record for most goals by an 18-year-old defenseman.
Throw in a quality one-two punch down the middle consisting of Bo Horvat and a newly healthy Mathew Barzal, and while the Isles need more time in the oven to be a real contender, they have a much higher ceiling than they have in recent years.
They’re 33-21-5, currently third in the Metro, and it would require a really strong push from Washington for the Islanders to fall into the wild card mix. If it happens, Carolina would be favored, but write this Islanders squad off at your own peril.
Columbus Blue Jackets
I’m not going to devote a ton of time to the Jackets here. They’re currently six points out of the playoffs, but they could still get in.
They’ve turned a corner since hiring Rick Bowness as their head coach following the dismissal of Dean Evason, but a loss to Boston in their first game back from the break poured some cold water on their hopes.
Zach Werenski is having another Norris-caliber season, and forwards like Kirill Marchenko, Dmitri Voronkov and Adam Fantilli provide some young upside to go with strong veteran contributions from Charlie Coyle, but there’s not much of note beyond those key core pieces.
Young goalie Jet Greaves and his .910 save percentage is surely the most intimidating thing about this team in a playoff matchup in terms of who could single-handedly steal a series for this team.
If Columbus gets in, it means they went on a run that would make them hot enough to be concerning, but this is as close as it would get for the Canes to what they’ve drawn in the past few years.
LAKELAND, FL – Detroit Tigers right-handed pitcher Jackson Jobe offered an encouraging update on his rehab from Tommy John surgery.
Jobe is going through a long-toss rehab program, progressively throwing longer distances – he is up to 105 feet, three times a week. And he said could start throwing bullpens off a mound in about six weeks.
“I think it's like, starting in mid-April, is when I'll be on the mound,” Jobe told reporters on Saturday, Feb. 28.
After he completes the long-toss program, he will start throwing bullpens.
“Then it'll be a few lives and rehab outings,” Jobe said. “I think it'll just depend on how sharp I'm feeling, how quickly I can get my feel back. But as it stands right now, I feel pretty normal, which is kind of weird, but guess I'll take it.”
When a reporter asked if Jobe could be pitching for the Tigers sooner than September, Jobe said: “What we have drawn up is quicker than that, for sure.”
But he offered no date.
“I obviously want to be smart about it,” he said. “I guess I probably shouldn't say when we have in mind, just in case it doesn't happen. But I'm feeling pretty optimistic that I will be throwing some important innings this year.”
The Tigers have been vague about when he might return, which is not surprising considering every rehab is different.
"We expect him to be back in 2026," president of baseball operations Scott Harris said Monday, Dec. 8, at the Winter Meetings in Orlando, Florida. "It's hard to forecast the actual date, but we expect it to be a boost for our roster in the second half."
"Knock on wood – everything's been going as well as it could,” Jobe said Saturday. “I'm just trying to keep it that way and not change a thing. The program that we have has been great."
Jobe – the No. 3 overall pick in the 2021 MLB Draft – has a locker in the Tigers clubhouse in TigerTown. He has been encouraged by other pitchers who have been through Tommy John – and had success after the surgery. He also has been getting tips and advice from Justin Verlander, who is teaching him how to work hard, but also how to rest and recover.
Still, Jobe is bothered about missing the start of the season.
“It sucks that I'm not going to be there for the beginning,” Jobe said. “Honestly, it really does suck, but I think we'll be doing something special towards the end of the year that I can hopefully be a part of and really add to.”
Jobe said that he has not suffered any setbacks in his recovery.
“We're seeing the light at the end of the tunnel now,” Jobe said.
“Seems like you are almost out of the tunnel,” a reporter said.
My Spring Training predictions for Saturday, February 28 are locked in on Cactus League action.
Find out why the San Francisco Giants top my MLB picks for today at juicy odds.
Spring Training predictions for February 28
Pick
Odds
LAA moneyline
-135
SF moneyline
+140
MIL moneyline
+100
Pick #1: Angels moneyline
Arizona Diamondbacks SP Mitch Bratt was shelled in his first Spring Training start to the tune of three runs (two earned) on three hits and a walk in just 1 1/3 innings. Considering he's never pitched above the Double-A level, I'm not optimistic he'll turn things around vs. the Los Angeles Angels.
The Angels are trotting out a lineup similar to the one they'll use on Opening Day, featuring Mike Trout batting second.
Alek Manoah gets the ball for L.A., and he tossed two scoreless innings for the Halos on Sunday.
Pick #2: Giants moneyline
I'll gladly fade the Athletics, who are off to a dreadful 1-5 start with just 17 runs scored in Cactus League play.
I don't have any knocks against A's starter Luis Morales, but San Francisco Giants SP Tyler Mahle is simply the more established arm on the hill in this one.
Mahle authored a sparkling 2.18 ERA last season and makes his 2026 Spring Training debut here behind a Giants team that's 5-2 so far with a +13 run differential.
Pick #3: Brewers moneyline
The Cincinnati Reds have the pitching matchup advantage on name value, but Hunter Greene's Spring Training numbers do not inspire confidence.
Greene owns a 5.83 ERA all-time in exhibition play over 63 1/3 combined innings. He's toeing the rubber against a Milwaukee Brewers club that's won four games in a row.
Rob Zastryzny gets the nod for the Brew Crew today, and while he's unlikely to see more than an inning, it should be a clean one, just like his first effort of 2026.
It's hard to knock Zastryzny's 2.12 ERA through 29 2/3 innings in a Milwaukee uniform.

Yankees infield prospect George Lombard Jr. fields some spring training Q&A from Post columnist Steve Serby.
Q: Do you have a timetable in your head as to when you hope or expect to be in the major leagues?
A: I wouldn’t say I have a timetable. I know that me focusing on the things that I can control, focusing on my work, on my play in the field, that stuff will kind of figure itself out. I just take it by day. Wherever I’m put is wherever I’ll go, and I’m gonna play my game and I know that things like that will work out.

Q: Have you visualized what it’s going to be like for you when you put on the pinstripes and run out onto the field one day at Yankee Stadium?
A: I have. I mean, I’ve definitely thought about it. When you’re in this situation it’s definitely something that crosses your mind, and I think I visualized it more of a point of I want to be prepared when I get there and have already gone through it in my head, and obviously it’s never going to replicate what it will be like in real life. … Yeah, I’ll definitely have those mental reps.
Q: Paint that scene for me.
A: I think for me it was always when you get to put on the pinstripes, you get to be in The Bronx. It’s gonna be a stadium filled with people that are passionate, that are intense, that are gonna want to win. But the biggest part for me is it’s still baseball, it’s the same game I’ve played my whole life. Obviously, it will not feel the same as just another game in the minor leagues, you’re in New York and even your brain knows that, so obviously there will be more excitement, more nerves, all the emotions will be just on max. So it’s just acknowledging that you’re on that stage and that you belong there and that you earned it. And then just going out there and playing my game.

Q: Have you had any conversations with Derek Jeter?
A: I spoke to him this past offseason. … We talked about a bunch of things, but I think the biggest thing is just be myself. You know, you get to New York, there’s obviously all the outside noise and a lot of things that can be going on around you, but the main thing is just know who you are, know what you need, keep your circle close and just do your thing.
Q: Describe the big New York stage under the bright lights.
A: It’s something that I’ve dreamed of as a kid, and it’s something that since I can remember, something I wanted to do. I’m definitely very excited to get up there and win games on the biggest stage.
Q: Describe Yankees fans.
A: Passionate, really want to win, will let you know how they feel, but the best in the world.
A: That’s the toughest one! … I’ll go … competitor.
Q: Describe your mentality in the batter’s box.
A: I think the biggest thing for me is just competitive … aggressive. I always take pride in my competitiveness, my ability to compete on the field. You gotta be a dawg in there, be aggressive, and be on attack mode.
Q: Your mentality in the infield.
A: I still have that fire, the competitiveness that nothing can get by me, I gotta get to everything. But you just gotta relax and be an athlete out there in flow state.
Q: Describe what “playing to win” means.
A: First off, doing all the little things right, doing all the little things your team needs you to do in those small little moments, those add up over the game and turn into wins. And then just outcompeting the other team, just wanting it more.
Q: What drives you?
A: I would say my family, doing it for the people that have supported me my whole life, doing it for them — they’ve always pushed me and been there for me when I needed them. And then always wanting to be the best version of myself on a daily basis whether that’s on the field, off the field, and just always chasing excellence.

Q: Does fear of failure drive you?
A: I wouldn’t say so much fear of failure as much as just me wanting to be the best version of myself. In baseball, when you fail so much you kind of have to accept the fact that you’re not gonna win every single time, and you have to understand that and be OK with it and then still strive to win as much as you can, to succeed as much as you can.
Q: Was there any point that the fear of failure caused you to wrestle with yourself?
A: A hundred percent. Especially growing up in a game where you fail so much, being around the good players, it can be easy to go internal and get in your head when you want to succumb to that little voice in your head that’s always spitting at you worst-case scenarios and things like that. But I think it just takes practice and takes targeted training to work on that. It’s a part of the game that I think the best players in the world are very good at, they’re elite at it, and that’s part of the reason why they’re at that level is acknowledging that part of the game, acknowledging the failure, accepting that and then still going out there and being able to be at your best.
Q: What has it been like being a 2023 first-round draft pick for the New York Yankees?
A: It’s been awesome. From the moment that my name got announced on the TV screen to the New York Yankees, it was a ton of excitement. Obviously, just the fact that I was getting drafted in the first round, then the fact that it was the New York Yankees makes it even more special, an organization like that, a franchise with the history that New York does. It was super exciting, and then ever since I’ve been here it’s been nothing short of that. Everybody’s been great, from the staff to the players and all the ex-players that come back, everybody’s treated me great. It’s been a ton of fun.
A: CC [Sabathia] has been around a lot, I’ve gotten to know him pretty well, he’s a great guy. … Andy Pettitte’s around all the time, he’s also another great dude. Didi Gregorius has been around a lot, got to know him pretty well.
Q: Do you feel any pressure being a first-round pick and top Yankees prospect?
A: I wouldn’t say that there’s no pressure, no expectations, obviously I feel like that just comes with it. I always look at it as a blessing just to be in that situation where I get to have expectations because I was taken where I was because I put myself in that situation. So yeah, I acknowledge it and know that that’s exactly where I want to be and then go from there, and I know that if I do my thing, if I get better every day, if I do my work, that things will work themselves out.
Q: Where do you see the level of your baseball IQ?
A: I think it’s high. I think something that’s helped me with that is just me always really enjoying the game, it being a passion for me my whole life. I always loved watching the game, watching people, listening to people talk about the game. I got to be around the game a lot with my family being in baseball. I think just the time I’ve spent and the passion that I’ve had for the game my whole life has helped me kind of build that.

Q: Give me an example of your leadership.
A: I would say I’m not the type of person that’s super outspoken, in-your-face type of leader. I’m more of the lead by example, do-the-little-things-how-they’re-supposed-to-be kind of leader. I feel like when there’s conversations that need to be had, I can do that in private, I can do that with certain people, and the same goes for everybody else in the clubhouse.
Q: An example of your mental toughness.
A: Last year, I kind of got tested a little bit when I got called up to Double-A for the first time and had to face some struggles, especially in my first month up there and things weren’t going my way (laugh), to say the least. I had to work through that and make some adjustments, kind of go through that grind for a month or so and deal with all those little things. While that was going on, still play every day, still being a leader on the team, still going out there and playing good defense … fighting our way through a struggle.
Q: What are you working on in the batter’s box now?
A: Made a couple of little tweaks mechanically with my swing, with my hands that have put me in a good spot now. I feel like the swing itself is in a good spot, so it’s just about going out there, refining the approach and having competitive at bats, making sure I know my game plan every single at bat, and going out there and executing that, so just having as many competitive at bats as I can.
Q: What are you working on at shortstop?
A: To me, taking ground balls, working on my defense never even feels like work, it’s just fun. There’s times where we have to dial in, focus on some specific things that I want to work on, but a lot of times just going out there and being an athlete and making plays and making sure I’m just as consistent with that as possible, and then refining all my skills.
Q: How comfortable are you at second base or at third base?
A: I consider myself a baseball player, not just a shortstop. I feel like I can go out there and wherever my team would need me to play, I’m confident in myself that I can go out there and make plays.
Q: How did soccer help you playing in the infield?
A: A ton, a ton. Overall athleticism, footwork, speed, agility, all the things that come with being on a soccer field, I think they all translate very well to being an athlete and moving fluidly on a baseball field.
Q: Who were your favorite athletes growing up?
A: In soccer my favorite players were Virgil van Dijk, [Lionel] Messi, obviously. And then, in baseball, Corey Seager, Francisco Lindor, Mookie Betts, [Carlos] Correa, all the really good shortstops in the big leagues that are still playing now.
Q: What is your best baseball moment?
A: My team getting in the states the first time my senior year. We had a good group of close friends, and we made a good run at the end. That was a special moment that I’ll remember for a long time. And then since I’ve been here with the Yankees, I would say probably the one that sticks out the most is my first game, first at-bat, got to sneak one out, hit a homer, floating around the bases in my first big league game being able to hit a home run, have some of the big leaguers, some guys I watch on TV be there in the dugout to celebrate. It was a lot of fun.

Q: Three dinner guests?
A: Derek Jeter …
Q: What would you ask him?
A: All of his experiences, coming up, playing in New York, playing on the biggest stage, winning championships … it doesn’t get much more legendary than Derek Jeter in New York.
Q: That’s one dinner guest.
A: Dr. Martin Luther King [Jr.]. The impact that he had, the influence that he had, his courageousness, everything that he stood for, it’s definitely something that I’d want to learn from.
Q: That’s two dinner guests.
A: I’ll go Jay-Z.
Q: Favorite movie?
A: “Interstellar.”
Q: Favorite actor?
A: Denzel Washington.
Q: Favorite meal?
A: Probably some of my grandmother’s Cuban food.
Q: Tell me about your grandmother, Posey.
A: When COVID hit when my dad had some more time to really dig deep into her story and her life, found a lot of things about her and her mission, what she did. She was coming down from the Northeast, came down to Atlanta, had my dad and his brother and sister, was a big civil rights activist, marched alongside Dr. Martin Luther King and just did so many good things, was one of the most courageous, brave people that I’ve ever … obviously unfortunately never got to meet her, but I wish I could have. Hearing some of the things that she stood up for and that she fought for, it’s inspiring.

Q: Your father is part black and white, and your mother is Hispanic. You’re like a walking United Nations.
A: (Laugh) It’s a blessing. Being so diverse in race ethnicity, it’s allowed me to connect with a ton of different people since I was young. There was definitely a period of time where I was learning myself and understanding myself and understanding my background, where I come from and my family story. Now as I’ve gotten older and understood myself, it’s been great to kind of embrace myself, my diversity and my background, and build relationships with people from all walks of life, from different countries, different backgrounds, different culture identity. It’s really cool.
Q: Your father George, the Tigers bench coach, got his psychology degree at the University of Phoenix.
A: One of the reasons he got his degree as well was just to show me and my brother [Jacob] that that can be done. He got drafted out of high school, so he never got to do that. Same with myself. But he made it a promise to his mom and to his family that he was gonna get that done every day, and he wanted us to know that that’s something that we value a lot, and it’s very important to us as a family is being educated.
Q: You might go back one day and get your degree?
A: I made that promise to my parents that I would get it eventually one day.
Q: What are your personal goals for this season?
A: I think what will put me in the best spot for success is making sure I’m prepared every single day, then going out there and focusing on being a competitor and winning games wherever I’m at, wherever I start at. I want to be in a position, whether that happens or not, but to be in an opportunity to help the New York Yankees win a World Series this year.

When the Brooklyn Nets re-signed Cam Thomas last summer (after he spent four years with the club), there were two expectations: 1) He would have a permanent green light on a team that would need scoring; 2) The rebuilding Nets would try to build up his trade value and move him at the deadline. None of that worked out as planned — much like Thomas' entire career in Brooklyn — and after a trade deadline, when no deal was found, Brooklyn waived Thomas.
He signed with the Milwaukee Bucks, and when back in New York this week to face the Knicks, he said he didn't want to talk much about Brooklyn, but speaking to Stefan Bondy of The New York Post, he did take a little dig at his former team.
"That's just who they are. They don't believe in nobody...
"I never asked. I don't even care anymore. I'm on a different team. I don't want to talk about them much. But that's what it was. They didn't believe. Always thought — I don't know. They always thought something was better, I guess. I don't know. Always chasing something."
The Nets are chasing a rebuild and with that came a lot of roster turnover during Thomas' time in Brooklyn. The Nets know they need star players to anchor that, and to find role players who fit around them, and Thomas ultimately was not part of that plan.
Since arriving in Milwaukee, he has averaged 14 points a game and is shooting just 27.7% from beyond the arc as he tries to find his footing (he did score 34 against Orlando and 27 against New Orleans not long after getting to Milwaukee, but in recent games his minutes and scoring are down).
This summer, Thomas will be an unrestricted free agent.
Back in April, when the Ottawa Senators met the Toronto Maple Leafs in the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time in 21 years, it looked like the Battle of Ontario was back.
Their playoff meeting in 2004 had been the last time the two provincial rivals faced off in the post-season. But for years afterward, it always seemed like at least one of the two Ontario teams simply wasn’t very good.
After 2004, the Senators kept rolling, making the Cup Final in 2007. But the Leafs went on to miss the playoffs for the next seven seasons and in all, went 17 years without a single playoff series victory. As for the Senators? They eventually went cold, too. Last spring marked the end of a seven-year playoff drought, the third longest in the NHL at the time.
So it was good to see both Ontario teams moving in a positive direction at the same time. Toronto won the 2005 first-round series in six games, but it seemed to set the table for more great battles to come.
Now, it's 10 months later.
As they meet in Toronto on Saturday night for the second of their four meetings this season, it’s no surprise the two Ontario teams are neck and neck in the Eastern standings. What is a surprise, though, is that both teams sit seven and eight points out of the final wild-card spot in the conference.
The Senators have 64 points, good for 11th place in the East. The Leafs have 63, which has them tied for 12th.
Ottawa’s record is actually better than it was at the 58-game mark last year, when they had 62 points. The difference is that non-playoff teams like the Detroit Red Wings, Buffalo Sabres and Boston Bruins have all taken big steps forward and currently occupy playoff spots in the East.
It’s Toronto that's taken the biggest spill. On February 28 last year, the Leafs led the Atlantic Division with 76 points, which is 13 points ahead of their current pace. That information probably has Vegas forward Mitch Marner sleeping like a baby these days.
The season isn’t over for either Ontario team. Both can perhaps draw inspiration from Buffalo’s ability to flip the script so quickly. On December 8, the Sabres were dead last in the East. Since then, they’ve gone 20-5-6 and now sit second in the Atlantic Division. It’s a shocking turnaround for any team, especially one that is currently riding the longest playoff drought in NHL history at 14 years.
That's how quickly things can change in the NHL.
The question now for Ottawa and Toronto, at a time when many expected both clubs to be well above the playoff cut line, is whether they should be buyers or sellers with the NHL trade deadline just a week away.
Both fan bases have to be worried (or convinced) by now that the construction of their respective rosters may be flawed, and both would love to imagine that it can all be remedied with a few moves at the deadline.
As always, that is far easier said than done, particularly in a league right now filled with parity. A lot of teams still believe they’re in the playoff race. As a result, true sellers are few and far between, and the price tags on available players will be steep.
Things are tight, the clock is ticking, and the margin for error is so small, that a loss on Saturday night could actually alter the losing team’s deadline plans in the coming days. So it’s an important week for both Ontario teams. Unfortunately, it's not because either one is on the doorstep of a playoff spot. Until further notice, that notion remains a long shot.
But as they say, the journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step, and it's always nice to lay a beating on your provincial rival on a Saturday night.

No two names, across sports, produce more tangible juice than Lakers and Celtics. A sold-out crowd, with an unusually large number of Boston fans, packed the building in anticipation of the annual matchup in downtown Los Angeles last Sunday.
LA wins the opening tip, and the ball finds its way into Luka Dončić’s hands. Right away, big man Deandre Ayton sets his customary high ball screen, while the Celtics counter with a deep drop. It’s a defensive coverage that has plagued the team all season, and something the team will need to find answers for.
Luka comes off the pick with a wide amount of space, staring at a big man sitting in the paint, and a pull-up jumper whispering to him like the green goblin mask. Boston’s guard defender does his job chasing, and Luka drives and steps back for the contested long two, taking the bait.
He would go on to shoot 1-11 from two-point range on shots outside the restricted area.
The Celtics controlled the entire game and went on to rout the home team, a worrisome trend against physical defenses.
“There were opportunities, I think, to put more pressure on the rim,” head coach J.J. Redick said postgame. “Particularly in the first half, we took 11 non-paint twos. We were 13-29 on non-paint twos. That’s not normally what we shoot.”
Many teams across the league play this defensive style, but a few lean into it as their ethos. Namely, Boston, Phoenix, Portland, and San Antonio, which centers paired with physical guards that cater to this style.
Heading into Thursday’s matchup against the Suns, the Lakers, with the 10th-best offense in the league, were posting an abysmal 107.5 offensive rating against those four teams. That mark would rank last in the league by a mile.
This coverage doesn’t just give up halfway-decent looks from midrange, but it invites them. The objective is to keep a pick-and-roll defense a two-on-two game. The guard chases and gives back pressure, while the big man sits back and accounts for any rolling big or attack to the rim.
Watch below as Austin Reaves comes up to run the high ball screen with Jaxson Hayes. The floor is flattened out to maximize space with Luka and LeBron James on opposite wings.
Navigating against the back pressure, Reaves gets into the middle of the floor, where no advantage was created to kick the ball out. After overpenetrating to the rim, he uses a pump fake to draw a foul to no avail before forcing a twirling shot that falls short.
Watch below as the Celtics apply the same defensive scheme to Luka.
He catches it against ball denial, comes off the screen and eyes the big man in retreat. Ayton rolls while every other Laker remains stationary. No pass reveals itself, leading Luka to force up a contested floater that finds the bottom.
“I think a lot of times when teams are on that deeper drop versus us, all our guys that play pick and roll, it kind of puts you a little bit in a bind of not having the obvious choice to pass,” Redick said. “So we just got to do a better job of finding guys and moving the ball.
Reaves, LeBron, and Luka can hit these shots on high volume, but it’s a trade the Celtics and other great defenses will continue to make: Bait LA’s ball handlers into high-volume twos while keeping the rest of the team uninvolved.
As with every defensive scheme, it is susceptible to open shots with some adjustments.
One is a pick-and-pop threat. With the big man dropped back, it creates space for the pop guy to be open. Watch below as LeBron runs the screen and roll with Rui Hachimura.
Nikola Vučević does his job dropping back, but there’s too much space to recover as Hachimura nails the three.
Another is relying on their offensive-leaning center. Ayton was signed this summer as an elite pick-and-pop threat from mid-range. That shot has precipitously dropped not just in percentage, but also in volume.
In the month of February, Ayton has shot his lowest amount of field goals and has taken one mid-range jumper in seven games. He recently made comments of his disdain of how he’s been deployed on offense, but the team will need high levels of production from their starting center to win these games against contenders.
Also, some of these pull-ups and jump shots will have to go down to make defenses honest. Luka and Reaves continue to lead the league in scoring as a duo, and their shooting is a pivotal feature of the Lakers’ offense.
It has not had the efficiency required to beat the great teams, and LeBron is shooting just 29% from 3-point range in the new year.
“When teams play the deep drop, we have our counters,” Redick said. “Sometimes when the ball is changing ends quickly, it’s easy to just get into drag after drag.. I took ownership of that.”
Teams have scouted the Lakers’ initial drag screens and preliminary actions. With not much time remaining, how these counters are implemented will decide if they go home early for the third straight year.
