The NYPD is shutting down the party before it starts. New York police have released a security plan barring fans from gathering around Madison Square Garden during Game four of the NBA Finals on Wednesday. Knicks owner James Dolan is not happy about it, and honestly, neither are the thousands of fans who wanted to be part of the moment outside the arena.
Meanwhile in Atlanta, the Braves are dealing with a brutal blow to their lineup. Ronald Acuña Junior is heading back to the injured list after straining his left hamstring again. This is the same hamstring that has been a recurring nightmare for one of baseball's most electric players, and the timing could not be worse for a Braves team fighting to stay relevant.
On the recruiting trail, Nebraska is building something in Lincoln. The Cornhuskers landed a commitment from four-star defensive lineman Nehemiah Ombati out of Minnesota, a six-foot-three, two-hundred-seventy-five pound prospect ranked forty-fourth among defensive linemen in the class of two thousand twenty seven. Head coach Matt Rhule keeps stacking the board.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
