ChatGPT AI-driven NBA Mock Draft has Jase Richardson landing just outside lottery
ChatGPT AI-driven NBA Mock Draft has Jase Richardson landing just outside lottery ChatGPT AI is predicting Jase Richardson to land just outside the lottery in the upcoming NBA Draft. USA TODAY Sports released their latest NBA Mock Draft driven by ChatGPT AI, and Richardson landed right about where most human draft experts are predicting. The computer model had Richardson going No. 17 overall to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Richardson starred for the Spartans during his lone season in college, playing a massive part in Michigan State winning the Big Ten and reaching the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament. Richardson averaged 12.1 points per game and shot above 40% from three-point range, which raised his draft stock to where it was a no-brainer to enter the NBA Draft and leave after just one year. Richardson has been commonly mocked to land anywhere from late lottery pick to late first round pick. Most of the recent mock drafts I've came across have him landing just outside the lottery like we saw here from USA TODAY Sports' ChatGPT AI mock draft. The NBA Draft will be held on July 25 and 26 in Brooklyn. The draft will be televised on ABC and ESPN.

Broncos Give Update on Injured Tight End
Broncos Give Update on Injured Tight End originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Earlier in the offseason, the Denver Broncos added depth to their tight end room in the form Cole Fotheringham, who impressed the team during a tryout at rookie minicamp. Advertisement His stay with the franchise lasted just over a month, as the Broncos released him on Tuesday. That was until they brought him back into the fold in a second formal transaction in four days, placing him on injured reserve after he cleared waivers on Friday. According to Broncos Wire's Jon Heath, Fotheringham will spend the entirety of the 2025 season on the Broncos' injury reserve list unless he reaches an injury settlement and is released from the team again. In a subsequent transaction, the Broncos signed Caden Prieskorn as an undrafted free agent. Prieskorn, who played college football at Memphis and Ole Miss, previously participated in the Detroit Lions' rookie minicamp but was cut at its conclusion. Las Vegas Raiders tight end Cole Fotheringham (85) runs a drill during training camp at the Intermountain Health Performance Ward-Imagn Images Fotheringham's professional football career began in 2022, when he was signed by the Las Vegas Raiders as an undrafted free agent. He spent that season on the Raiders' practice squad after not making the team's final 53-man roster cut. Advertisement Fotheringham's 2023 campaign nearly mirrored that of the year before, but he was elevated to the Raiders' active roster for two games. He recorded his lone professional reception – a six-yard catch on a pass from quarterback Aidan O'Connell – in his NFL debut against the Kansas City Chiefs on Christmas Day. For the second straight offseason, Fotheringham signed a reserve/future contract with the Raiders, but he was once again released before the regular season began. In 2024, he had stints on both the Houston Texans' and Raiders' practice squads, but he was not elevated to the active roster at any point that year.
