The NHL is eyeing Texas for its thirty-third franchise, and the Lone Star State could be hosting professional hockey within the next few seasons. Austin and Houston are both in the conversation, and league insiders say expansion is moving with real momentum — this isn't speculation anymore, it's a matter of when and where.
Shifting to the hardwood, the New York Knicks are making moves ahead of the season, agreeing to a one-year deal with veteran wing John Konchar. It's a depth signing, but the Knicks are clearly building with purpose — and ESPN's full franchise rankings have New York positioned as one of the more intriguing teams heading into the next two to three seasons.
And on the gridiron, Dak Prescott is four touchdown passes away from passing Tony Romo as the Cowboys' all-time leader in that category. ESPN tracked down players who caught those throws and the stories they're telling paint a picture of a quarterback who has quietly, steadily, built one of the most significant careers in Dallas franchise history. Four more and the record book gets rewritten.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
