Curry leads Warriors past Wolves 117-107, into 1st in West

Golden State's most recent homestand included a 33-point loss to Boston and a startling defeat to last-place Phoenix, reminding the Warriors of the work that's ahead of them to win a fourth cheap nba championship rings in five years.

The Golden State Warriors championship rings passed their first challenge with a 3-1 record on this tough road trip, finishing in Minnesota with a clinic in half-court passing and shooting.

Stephen Curry scored 22 of his 36 points in the third quarter and Klay Thompson pitched in with 28 points, giving the Warriors more than enough production to beat the fading Timberwolves 117-107 on Tuesday and regain first place in the Western Conference.

The Warriors had 39 assists on 44 made field goals and finished 19 for 42 from 3-point range. They've won 20 of their last 25 games away from home.

"Some possessions, it was a lot of overpassing, to be honest," Curry said, "but against teams that try to put pressure on you and take away that first option, that's the best way for us to really attack."

Jonas Jerebko added 18 points, Kevin Durant scored 17 points and Draymond Green had 10 rebounds and nine assists for the Golden State Warriors championship rings for sale (48-22), who bounced back with little rest from a loss at San Antonio on Monday and moved a half-game ahead of idle Denver (47-22) for the top seed. The Warriors beat Houston and Oklahoma City, currently in the third and sixth spots in the stacked conference race, to start the trip. Falling at home to Phoenix clearly captured their attention.

Karl-Anthony Towns had 26 points and 21 rebounds, Andrew Wiggins totaled 20 points, eight rebounds and six assists and Josh Okogie had 19 points for the Timberwolves, who played again without the injured Jeff Teague, Derrick Rose, Robert Covington and Luol Deng, and lost their fourth straight game.

The cheap Golden State Warriors championship rings, finishing their ninth set of games on consecutive nights out of 12 back-to-backs on their schedule this season, started rather sleepily and watched the Wolves build a 22-9 lead.

The beauty of the Warriors -- or irritation, depending on the rooting interest -- is how quickly they can recover. They used a 21-3 run over the next 5:51 to take control, with their long-range shooting simply too much for this undermanned Wolves team that, even at full strength, is vulnerable defensively cheap championship rings.

Jerebko, whose playing time has dwindled since DeMarcus Cousins returned, had 14 points in the second quarter alone, including a couple of deep 3-pointers from the wing to help the Warriors cruise into halftime with a 59-47 lead.

The Wolves managed to work their way back to tie the game at 61 on Okogie's 3-pointer, but the Warriors needed only 3:18 for a 14-1 spurt that put them right back in charge. Curry had eight of those points.

Nats' Taylor (knee, hip) to miss 'significant' time

Washington Nationals outfielder Michael A. Taylor will be sidelined with a sprained left knee and sprained left hip, leaving the club thin at that position with Opening Day less than two weeks away.

Taylor favored his left leg as he limped through the clubhouse earlier in the day before heading to undergo an MRI.

"He's a big part of our ballclub," Martinez said after getting test results. "So I just hope that he recovers quickly, and we can get him back out there as soon as possible."

Taylor had been set to enter the season as one of Washington's top four outfielders; it appeared he was going to be the first one off the bench, behind starters Adam Eaton in right, Juan Soto in left and rookie Victor Robles in center mlb world series championship rings.

Robles and Taylor are the only true center fielders available to Martinez, who acknowledged Friday, "You're correct: There's no outfield depth," after a reporter brought up the issue.

Bryce Harper, of course, has departed for the Philadelphia Phillies championship rings, a year after another starter, Jayson Werth, left the Nationals. The club traded two backups last season, and while Eaton is a veteran starter, Soto was an unexpected revelation at 19 last season, and Robles appears ready to make an impact at 21, Taylor was the only other sure thing in the outfield.

Taylor said his knee and hip stiffened shortly after he made a diving catch in center during the second inning of Washington's 10-4 victory over Minnesota on Thursday championship rings for sale.

In the moment, Martinez said, "It was kind of scary. I ran out of the dugout right away, because it didn't look too good."

Now Andrew Stevenson will see time in center field, and the team could look for other options AL&NL Rings championship rings.

"When you start a season with just four outfielders, you want a guy who can play center field," Martinez said. "So we're going to have to really look for that guy."

Matt Adams, a backup first baseman, started Washington's 11-3 win against the New York Mets championship rings on Friday. Of the more than 470 starts Adams has made in his major league career, only 30 came in left.

Martinez said that Wilmer Difo, a backup infielder, also will see time in the outfield in the coming days.

Another utility player who can play in the outfield, Howie Kendrick, is working his way back after straining his left hamstring in a game March 5. Martinez said Kendrick is not yet running at full speed.

Irish defeat Georgia Tech 78-71 to break 7-game skid

Notre Dame coach Mike Brey has been waiting all season for his team to figure out how to make a big plays in clutch situations.

He finally got it Tuesday -- on the biggest stage of the season.

John Mooney made a key 15-footer in the final minute as the shot clock was winding down to make it a two-possession game as Notre Dame held on to beat Georgia Tech 78-71 in the first round of the ACC championship rings to snap a seven-game losing streak.

Mooney finished with 20 points and 10 rebounds and Dane Goodwin added 15 points for the Irish, who nearly squandered a 20-point halftime lead.

Brey praised Mooney for his effort this season saying he's not sure how the 6-foot-9, 243-pound power forward has any energy left at all custom University/College Rings championship rings.

It was Mooney's 20th double-double of the season, coming days after he was named third-team All-Conference, which he called an honor.

"There's obviously some great players in this league, probably some first-round and second-round draft picks coming up in the NBA Draft, so it's awesome to be able to compete against those guys," Mooney said.

Moses Wright led Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets championship rings (14-18) with 25 points and James Banks III had 12 points and 11 rebounds.

It was Notre Dame's first victory since defeating the Yellow Jackets 69-59 in South Bend, Indiana, on Feb. 10 and only their fourth win of the calendar year.

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish championship rings (14-18) didn't play like the last place team in the ACC in the first half, shooting 58 percent from the field to build a 52-32 lead over the 10th-seeded Yellow Jackets.

Georgia Tech picked up the intensity with full-court pressure in the second half and cut the Irish lead to six with 1:56 remaining on a 3-pointer from the left wing by Jose Alvarado. After an Irish miss, Moore sank a 3 from the right corner and the lead was suddenly down to 72-69 with 1:06 remaining NCAA championship rings.

But Mooney didn't panic, calmly drilling a 15-footer as the shot clock was winding down. Prentiss Hubb then sank two free throws after a Georgia Tech miss to put the Irish safely up by seven with 32 seconds left.

Michael Devoe cut the lead to five on a layup, but Juwan Durham blocked Devoe on the next possession to help seal the win.

Georgia Tech was fifth in the country in 3-point defense, but Notre Dame blistered them by hitting 8 of 14 from beyond the arc, including 7 of 11 in the first half championship rings.

"They shot the daylights out of it the first half," Georgia Tech coach Josh Pastner said. "We were just on our heels, in a sense, and they were just making those 3s."

Said Brey: "We shot a crazy percentage today."

Shea Weber had a power-play goal and an assist for the Canadiens, who have lost five of eight. Paul Byron also scored and Price stopped 21 shots as Montreal completed a three-game California road swing with two losses while giving up a whopping 14 goals.

After getting a rare night off Thursday in San Jose, Price was in position to become the Canadiens' career victories leader after tying Jacques Plante's record with his 314th win Tuesday in Los Angeles. Instead, Price gave up eight goals in a game for the first time this season behind his befuddled defense.

At least now the 31-year-old former NHL MVP will get a chance to make Canadiens history in front of his Montreal fans on Tuesday against the Red Wings.

In his 17th NHL game, Jones got his first goal in the waning seconds.

Ducks C Ryan Kesler was a late scratch with a hip injury. He missed much of last season while recovering from hip surgery, and has scored just eight points while playing in 60 games this season, including the 1,000th of his NHL career Tuesday at Arizona. The 34-year-old Selke Trophy winner has three seasons and .625 million left on his contract. ... custom Montreal Canadiens championship rings forward Tomas Tatar sat out with the flu, and D Brett Kulak was scratched for the first time in 33 games since Dec. 20. Jesperi Kotkaniemi was back in the lineup, and D Mike Reilly returned from a five-game absence. ... Sprong was born in the Netherlands, but his family moved to the Montreal area when he was 7 years old to further his hockey development.

Lowly Suns beat NBA-best Bucks -- again

The Phoenix Suns have had a dreadful season, one of growing pains, long losing streaks and blowout losses. However, on Monday night they put together a performance that was far from that of the team that came in with the NBA's worst record.

Kelly Oubre Jr. had 27 points and 13 rebounds, and the Suns rallied from a 10-point fourth quarter deficit to beat the NBA-best Milwaukee Bucks championship rings 114-105 on Monday night.

Devin Booker added 22 points and Deandre Ayton had 19 points and 12 rebounds, including a key layup with 35.8 seconds to play that gave the Suns a four-point lead.

Booker and Ayton teamed up on the play when Ayton rolled to the basket.

The Suns outscored the Bucks 38-23 in the final quarter and swept the two-game season series with Milwaukee.

All-Star Giannis Antetokounmpo had 21 points and 13 rebounds, and Malcolm Brogdon scored 19 points for the Bucks, who have lost two straight games for the first time this season. Milwaukee Bucks championship rings for sale shot 36.8 percent as a team.

"It's kind of hard to think we lost to Phoenix twice," Antetokounmpo said. "But they played better than us. They came out there and set the tone."

The Bucks led by 16 points in the first half, only to trail by three in the third quarter.

Milwaukee, the team with the custom nba championship rings best road record coming in, couldn't put away Phoenix in the final quarter.

Booker swished a 3-pointer with 2:37 to go for a 100-98 Suns lead, and Oubre's corner 3 made it 103-100. Brogdon got a favorable high bounce on a 3 to tie it, but Tyler Johnson and Ayton scored the next two baskets unanswered for the Suns.

The Suns finished by making seven of eight free throws in the final 24.1 seconds.

The Bucks took a 31-20 lead into the second quarter. They were up 40-24 after Lopez made a 3 with 8:32 to play in the first half championship rings.

The Suns cut the lead to 54-52 at halftime. Johnson and Josh Jackson knocked down back-to-back 3s to cap off a 10-0 run over the last 90 seconds of the first half.

Booker's 3 with 10:02 left in the third tied the score at 55, and the Suns took their first lead of the game, 64-63, on Ayton's 12-footer with 5:35 to go in the quarter. Then Johnson's steal and layup had the Suns up 70-67.

The only teams the Suns haven't lost to this season are the Bucks and New York Knicks championship rings, the teams with the best and worst records in the Eastern Conference, respectively.

"It's kind of hard to think we lost to Phoenix twice,'' Antetokounmpo said. "But they played better than us. They came out there and set the tone."

"I don't think we take them as seriously as we should," Brogdon said. "It's just a lack of focus."

The Suns were 13.5-point underdogs in both their games against the Bucks this season. Only once in the past 25 regular seasons did one team beat another team multiple times in a season as an underdog of at least 13 points. The Chicago bulls championship rings did it against the Los Angeles Lakers championship rings in 2001-02.

Phillies land Harper for 13 years, 0M

Manager Gabe Kapler heard the big news from fans in the stands during the Philadelphia Phillies championship rings spring training game. His team won the Bryce Harper sweepstakes, agreeing to a 13-year, 0 million deal with the free-agent outfielder, league sources told ESPN's Jeff Passan on Thursday.

Harper, the 2015 National League MVP and still only 26 years old, was one of the top prizes in this year's crop of free agents. Infielder Manny Machado agreed to a 10-year, 0 million deal with the San Diego Padres championship rings, and it was assumed Harper's total would exceed that contract. Not only did he do that, his total beats Giancarlo Stanton's 13-year, 5 million extension signed with the Miami Marlins championship rings.

The Phillies, Giants and the Dodgers were vying for Harper. The Dodgers were interested in signing him to a short-term deal. The San Francisco Chronicle, citing multiple sources, reported the Giants went as high as 12 years and 0 million with their offer.

Kapler, who said that Harper would likely hit third or fourth in the lineup, met with Harper during the offseason courtship.

Following news of Harper's decision, his odds to win the 2019 NL MVP award moved from 6-1 to 5-1 at the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook.

Harper isn't the only upgrade to the roster for the Philadelphia Phillies championship rings for sale, who were 80-82 to finish third in the NL East last season. They traded for catcher J.T. Realmuto and infielder Jean Segura and signed outfielder Andrew McCutchen and reliever David Robertson.

Harper is a six-time All-Star and was the NL championship rings Rookie of the Year in 2012 who spent his first seven seasons with the Nationals. He is a patient hitter, known for hitting a lot of homers and drawing a lot of walks, and has a .279 average with 184 homers, 521 RBIs and a .388 on-base percentage over his career.

Harper hit .249 with 34 home runs and 100 RBIs for Washington last season. He struggled for much of the first half but won the Home Run Derby during All-Star festivities at Nationals Park and hit .300 with 11 home runs, 46 RBIs and 46 runs scored in 223 at-bats after the break. He led the NL custom championship rings in walks with 130 and ranked fifth in on-base percentage (.393).

He is going to a ballpark that fits him well. Harper has 14 career home runs at Citizens Bank Park, the most round-trippers at any road ballpark in his career. His .564 career slugging percentage at the park ranks first among 71 players with at least 200 plate appearances there. Rhys Hoskins, who will likely hit directly behind Harper in the batting order, ranks second on that list (.562).

One of the main topics of discussion for the Nationals -- and all of Major League Baseball mlb world series championship rings -- going into the offseason was whether the team would be able to sign Harper to a long-term deal. According to reports, he turned down a 10-year, 0 million offer from the Nats.

He went into free agency after turning down the Nationals' qualifying offer for .9 million. Because the Nationals are over the luxury tax, they would get a supplementary pick after the fourth round in compensation for Harper.

Harper led the major leagues in 2015 with 42 homers and hit .330 with 99 RBIs. He slumped to a .243 average with 24 homers and 86 RBIs in 2016 then rebounded to hit .319 with 29 homers and 87 RBIs in just 111 games in 2017.

Bastian and Gabriel score, last-place Devils sweep Canadiens

If the Montreal Canadiens championship rings don't make the postseason, they can blame the lowly New Jersey Devils.

Three games. Three losses. And only one point for a team fighting for its playoff life.

Monday night's 2-1 defeat might have been one of the low points all season for Montreal. With the Canadiens needing a win to improve their hold on the top wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference, last-place New Jersey beat them with a lineup that included seven players who spent the majority of the season with the custom New Jersey Devils championship rings top minor league affiliate.

"We just didn't start on time," Montreal coach Claude Julien said. "We didn't play well enough to win a hockey game. This time of year you have to play 60 minutes and we didn't do that."

The Devils did.

Nathan Bastian scored his first NHL stanley cup rings goal and Kurtis Gabriel got his second. Recently acquired defenseman Connor Carrick set up both goals and Cory Schneider made 34 saves to cap the Devils' best season series against Montreal since going 3-1-0 in 2011-12.

The Canadiens still hold a one-point lead over Carolina and Pittsburgh for the first wild card in the East, but the Hurricanes and Penguins now each have a game in hand.

"Every single game from here on out will be absolutely huge," Montreal center Max Domi said. "We've got to find ways to win as many games as possible. We're going to try and win every game, obviously. We're going to leave it all out there."

Paul Byron scored a short-handed goal for Montreal, and Carey Price made 20 saves.

Trailing 2-0 and with the cheap New Jersey Devils championship rings on a power play, the Canadiens got back into the game on a great individual effort by Byron, who recently returned to the lineup after missing six games with an arm injury.

Byron picked up a loose puck near his own blue line, outskated defenseman Damon Severson into the Devils zone and beat Schneider with a shot to the top corner at 6:30 of the third period.

Montreal Canadiens championship rings for sale threatened in the final 13 minutes but Schneider made excellent saves on Domi and Brendan Gallagher on a power play in the last 10 minutes. Schneider's best save might have been a stop on a short-handed breakaway by Artturi Lehkonen in the first period.

Bastian, recalled from the minors Sunday, tipped Carrick's shot under Price's pads at 12:35 of the first period. He made his NHL debut on Jan. 19 and this was his second game.

Gabriel, who scored his first NHL goal against Ottawa last week, got his second by tipping a shot from the point by Carrick at 3:06 of the second period and putting in the rebound championship sports rings.

"That's the kind of goal you feel good getting to the net and rewarded for your hard work on it," Gabriel said. "That's why you saw the exuberance and celebration. The first one I didn't see go in. To be able to contribute and get a game-winning goal in a big game against that team, it's great."

Poole has 22 points, No. 7 Michigan beats Minnesota 69-60

If there's a weakness for these Michigan Wolverines championship rings to be worried about, it's lurking behind the 3-point line.

Jordan Poole and Jon Teske swished aside the concern for at least one night.

Poole scored 22 points to lead a long-range shooting spree by seventh-ranked Michigan, and the Wolverines beat Minnesota 69-60 on Thursday to set up a much-anticipated matchup this weekend against rival Michigan State with first place in the Big Ten at stake.

"We love the competition we have with Michigan State, but we're trying to win a championship," Michigan Wolverines championship rings for sale coach John Beilein said. "And to win a championship, you've got to beat Minnesota too."

Teske had 17 points, seven rebounds and five blocks and Ignas Brazdeikis added 10 points for the Wolverines (24-3, 13-3), who are tied with the Spartans at the top of the conference. Purdue is a half-game behind.

Michigan went 13 for 28 from behind the 3-point line, matching a season best for makes in Big Ten play, with Poole going 5 for 10 and Teske 3 of 6. In the previous three games, Poole was 3 for 17. Both Teske and point guard Zavier Simpson are shooting below 30 percent for the season NCAA championship rings.

"I know what I see in practice and I know if we're going to compete for the championship -- Big Ten, Big Ten Tournament, national championship -- then we've got to be able to score more," Beilein said cheap championship rings.

These well-balanced Wolverines, who had nine points and nine rebounds from Charles Matthews and 12 assists by Simpson, needed a buzzer-beating jumper by Matthews to stave off a late surge by the Gophers for a 59-57 victory at home on Jan. 22. Michigan made only 3 of 22 from behind the arc in that game cheap University/College Rings championship rings.

This time, the Wolverines experienced no duress.

"I think they were pretty confident," Minnesota coach Richard Pitino said, "and they were just teeing it up."

The Wolverines have won 13 of the last 14 games in the series, including nine of 10 since Pitino took over. Jordan Murphy (18 points, 15 rebounds) and Daniel Oturu (18 points, 12 rebounds) gave the Gophers (17-10, 7-9) plenty of production in the paint, but they missed nine of their 10 attempts from 3-point range custom University/College Rings championship rings.

"We kind of let that affect our defensive effort," Murphy said.

Oturu had a double-double by halftime, beating the buzzer with his putback to bring the Gophers to 28-18, but that was still their lowest score of any half all season. The Wolverines built a lead as large as 21 points in the second half, sinking 3-pointer after 3-pointer whenever the Gophers were on the verge of a run.
