Welcome to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
The Tampa Bay Rays are one step closer to a permanent home, and it's going to cost a serious amount of money. Local officials and the organization have reached a tentative agreement on a brand new ballpark in Tampa worth two point three billion dollars, with both public and private funding in the mix. This has been a years-long saga, and if the deal holds, it reshapes the franchise's future entirely.
Shifting to the playoffs, the NBA came out Thursday and backed its officials after a controversial finish to Game Five between Cleveland and Detroit. The league confirmed that no foul should have been called on Jarrett Allen in the closing seconds of regulation, a decision that had Pistons fans absolutely fuming. The league rarely sides with the refs this publicly, which tells you they felt strongly about this one.
And in France, Kylian Mbappe leads a star-packed World Cup roster that dropped Thursday, but the bigger headline might be who got left out. Eduardo Camavinga, Real Madrid's dynamic midfielder, did not make the cut, nor did goalkeeper Pauline Chevalier. With a roster this deep, someone talented was always going to feel the pain of that selection meeting.
That's your play-by-play.
