David Lawrence obituary
Gloucestershire fast bowler who was the first British-born black cricketer to play for England
David “Syd” Lawrence, the Gloucestershire and England cricketer who has died aged 61, a year after being diagnosed with motor neurone disease, knew only one way to bowl. It was to charge up to the crease and hurl the ball down as fast as he could – whether it was eleven o’clock in the morning or six in the evening after a long day in the field. He became the first British-born black cricketer to play for England on his Test debut in 1988.
For Gloucestershire he united with Courtney Walsh, the great West Indian paceman, who would soon become a friend. They would also enjoy themselves as revellers at the St Paul’s carnival in Bristol each year. Together they formed a formidable, contrasting pair of opening bowlers. Walsh was the more calculating cricketer, bowling fast one day and relying on accuracy, cunning and late movement the next. Lawrence just kept racing in with abandon, a spectacular, uplifting sight unless you happened to be the batsman at the other end.

Tyrese Haliburton says torn achilles in NBA finals ‘makes no sense’ as injury is confirmed
The Indiana Pacers confirmed on Monday that their star guard Tyrese Haliburton tore his right achilles tendon in Sunday night’s NBA finals Game 7 loss to Oklahoma City.
The All-NBA guard was helped off the court and immediately taken to the locker room in obvious pain during the first quarter. He was later officially diagnosed with the injury the next day.
“An MRI taken on Monday confirmed that Haliburton tore his right achilles tendon,” the Pacers said in a statement on Monday evening. “Surgery is scheduled later today with Dr Martin O’Malley at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York.”

Haliburton’s injury recalled one suffered by Kevin Durant during the NBA finals in 2019. Like Durant, Haliburton was playing through another injury – in his case a calf strain – before tearing his achilles. But Haliburton said he would have made the same choice again.
“I’d do it again, and again after that, to fight for this city and my brothers,” Haliburton wrote on social media on Monday night. “For the chance to do something special.”
Durant missed the entire following season after his injury, and Haliburton may do the same. The typical recovery time for a basketball player with a torn achilles ranges from eight to 10 months.
Without Haliburton, the Pacers were outscored 56-43 in the second half on Sunday night as Oklahoma City won the championship with a 103-91 victory. Haliburton had hit several clutch shots as the Pacers made their remarkable – and unexpected – run to the finals.
“Don’t know how to explain it other than shock,” Haliburton wrote. “Words cannot express the pain of this letdown. The frustration is unfathomable. I’ve worked my whole life to get to this moment and this is how it ends? Makes no sense.
“Now that I’ve gotten surgery, I wish I could count the number of times people will tell me I’m going to ‘come back stronger’. What a cliche lol, this shit sucks. My foot feels like dead weight fam. But what’s hurting most I think is my mind. Feel like I’m rambling, but I know this is something I’ll look back on when I’m through this, as something I’m proud I fought through. It feels good to let this shit out without y’all seeing the kid ugly cry.”
Two of Haliburton’s fellow All-Stars, Damian Lillard of the Milwaukee Bucks and Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics, are currently recovering from torn achilles. They, too, suffered their injuries during this postseason.
“I don’t ‘have to’ go through this, I get to go through this,” Haliburton wrote. “I’m grateful for the road that lies ahead. Watch how I come back from this. So, give me some time, I’ll dust myself off and get right back to being the best version of Tyrese Haliburton.”
The 25-year-old averaged 18.6 points, 9.2 assists and 3.5 rebounds in 73 games (all starts) during the regular season. He has career averages of 17.5 points, 8.8 assists and 3.7 rebounds in 333 games (294 starts) for the Sacramento Kings (2020-22) and Pacers.
TSN's Bob Mackenzie's Final NHL Draft Rankings: Matthew Schaefer The Unanimous No. 1 Pick
There was a debate for a little bit as to who the New York Islanders should select No. 1 overall at the 2025 NHL Draft after the club won its first draft lottery since 2009.
But, since the draft combine, 17-year-old defenseman Matthew Schaefer has emerged as the clear-cut favorite. On Monday, TSN's Bob Mackenzie released his final draft rankings, citing that Schaefer is the unanimous No. 1 selection.
"The true testament to defenceman Matthew Schaefer’s prodigious talent and boundless potential as the undisputed No. 1 prospect in the NHL’s Class of 2025 can be found in the numbers. Not the goals or assists or points or penalty minutes or plus-minus or any analytics. Just look at his games played this season: 17 in the regular season for the OHL’s Erie Otters; two in the inaugural CHL-U.S. NTDP Prospects Challenge; and two for Team Canada at the 2025 World Junior Championship. Twenty-one games in all. If, as expected, Schaefer is taken No. 1 overall by the New York Islanders at the NHL draft June 28 in Los Angeles, it will be unprecedented. That is, no No. 1 pick will have ever played so few games in his draft year as Schaefer."-
Mackenzie also projects that Long Island native James Hagens, who was the consesus No. 1 pick for a few years before falling a bit, will fall to the Boston Bruins at No. 7.
The 2025 NHL Draft begins at 7 PM ET on Friday.
