NBA／湯普森雙胞胎擬轉籍牙買加 有望攜手鮑威爾出戰國際賽
火箭隊的湯普森（Amen Thompson）與效力活塞的弟弟湯普森（Ausar Thompson）兩雙胞胎兄弟近日展開申請牙買加國籍的程序，未來有望代表牙買加國家隊征戰國際賽場。由於兩人的父親具有牙買加血統，讓兩兄弟擁有申請該國國籍的資格。若入籍順利完成，兩人將能代表牙買加參加FIBA等國際賽事。
牙買加國家隊近年積極補強陣容，據報導，已成功爭取快艇隊得分後衛鮑威爾（Norman Powell）承諾加入，準備出戰未來FIBA賽事。除了鮑威爾外，牙買加也正在積極招募其他具牙買加血統的NBA球員，包括太陽隊中鋒理查茲（Nick Richards）、活塞隊內線史都華（Isaiah Stewart），以及灰狼隊前鋒米諾特（Josh Minott）。
若招募成果順利，牙買加隊有望成為中北美區一支不可忽視的新興強權。從具潛力新星到即戰力老將，牙買加正試圖打造具備深度與競爭力的國家隊陣容，在國際舞台上展現全新戰力輪廓。

Smith-Shawver手肘受傷退場 勇士教頭：不太妙
勇士與費城人今天(30日)進行雙重賽，沒想到第1場比賽先發投手AJ Smith-Shawver投不滿3局就因為右手肘受傷提前退場，而總教練Brian Snitker則說Smith-Shawver的情況看起來不太妙。 AJ Smith-Shawver。圖片來源：達志影像 第3局當Smith-Shawver被費城人捕手Rafael Marchan敲出全壘打後，隨即被Bryson Stott擊出的強襲球打到右腳跟形成安打，而在面對Trea Turner時，Smith-Shawver有望休息區看了一下，儘管之後解決Turner但也被換下場。 Snitker賽後表示：「他當時對我說『在投Turner時我聽到斷裂的聲音』，我當時不知道他是否是指手肘，或者是阿基里斯腱還是腳跟讓他感到困擾。」 而在雙傷進行第2場比賽前，Smith-Shawver就已先離隊回到亞特蘭大接受進一步的檢查，此舉通常代表是出現重大傷勢。 Smith-Shawver的受傷退場讓勇士教練團浮現去年主力先發投手 Spencer Strider受傷當下的既視感，Strider之後動了手肘手術，直到今年才復出。 值得一提的是，Smith-Shawver第1局對Turner曾投出生涯第2快的99.6英哩速球，且今天速球均速來到97.1英哩寫下生涯單場新高；而連同今天比賽在內，他連續3場出賽的速球均速均刷新個人紀錄：5月16日為96.8英哩、5月23日為96.9英哩。 Snitker指出：「我不認為那傷勢與之前被強襲球打到有任何關係，我認為那是他的球速所帶來的結果，他之前投的非常好，所以這有點像是注定會發生的事情。」 現年22歲的Smith-Shawver雖然早在2023年就登上大聯盟，但過去2年投球局數不到30局，因此今年仍具備新人資格，而他開季前7場比賽繳出3勝2敗、自責分率2.33的驚人數據，大有挑戰國聯新人獎的氣勢，直到上周對國民才遭到砲擊，僅投3局就狂失7分。連同今天在內，本季9場出賽自責分率為3.86。 如果Smith-Shawver的傷勢得缺席不短的時間，那將是勇士遭遇的另一次重大挫折，難怪捕手 Sean Murphy會說：「感覺糟透了，他之前一直投的很好。」 - ✎緯來體育台官方網站 【 】 ✎緯來新聞網 【 】 ✎緯來體育台官方YouTube收看NBA LIVE直播 【 】 緯來體育台-2024-25NBA美國職籃大賽-賽程轉播表

MLB》洋基低調發美聯冠軍戒 怪力男：別讓我看到你們戴著它到處走
紐約洋基去年闖進世界大賽，可惜最後敗給洛杉磯道奇居於亞軍，大聯盟官網報導，球團上個月低調地向球員發放「美聯冠軍戒」，但大夥兒都知道那並非自己想要的東西，「怪力男」史坦頓（Giancarlo Stanton）就說：「別讓我看到你們戴著它到處走。」 洋基自從2009年奪冠後，就遲遲未能打進世界大賽，去年賽季好不容易有爭冠機會，但卻輸給道奇隊，不過身為去年賽季的亞軍，仍有美聯冠軍戒作為安慰獎，大聯盟官網報導，洋基球團上個月在曼哈頓一間飯店舉辦晚宴，由總管凱許曼（Brian Cashman）將這枚戒指交到球員手上。 The Yankees recently received their 2024 AL championship rings, a bittersweet gesture. Giancarlo Stanton told the group: 'This isn't the one we wanted.' They're using them as motivation to finish the job: — Bryan Hoch ⚾️ (@BryanHoch) May 29, 2025 不過對於洋基眾將來說，他們知道這並不是自己所想要的東西，史坦頓在晚宴上說道：「這不是我們想要的，兄弟們，我們想要的就在眼前，最好別讓我看到你們戴著這些戒指到處走。」 洋基當家游擊手沃爾普（Anthony Volpe）也分享，自己起初拒絕收下這枚戒指，但被告知不能這樣做時，就決定將其轉贈給父親，而他後來的心態也有所改變：「現在回想起來，它紀念的是到達那裡的旅程。」 更多新聞推薦 • 更多》MLB最新報導

Rockets star Amen Thompson mulls playing for Jamaica in future international competitions
Houston Rockets guard/forward Amen Thompson is open to playing for Jamaica in future international basketball competitions, the 22-year-old rising star said earlier this week. 'Ever since I was a kid, I used to watch the Olympics and see [sprinters] Usain Bolt and [Yohan] Blake," Thompson said, via Daniel Blake of the Jamaica Observer. 'Jamaica always represents a gold medal culture. I always wanted to see a basketball team, I wanted to picture basketball players with a Jamaica jersey on, and I always wanted to wear one, too.' Advertisement 'So, just getting the opportunity — I could either play for USA or Jamaica — but being able to be here and it even [being] an option, it means a lot to me.' Michael Shapiro of Houston's has more: Thompson, along with his twin brother and Detroit Pistons wing Ausar Thompson, discussed his international basketball future during an appearance in Kingston, Jamaica, with the Jamaica Basketball Association and the Bob Marley Foundation. Both twins expressed interest in competing for Team Jamaica in future international basketball competitions, following in the footsteps of their uncle, Mark Thompson, who competed in the 400-meter hurdles for Jamaica at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. Troy Thompson, the twins' father, is Jamaican, and according to the Jamaica Observer, both Amen and Ausar have started the process of obtaining Jamaican citizenship. Both Thompson twins are eligible to compete for the United States in upcoming international competitions, including the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. Amen, in particular, would seem to have a path to Team USA after a breakout NBA season in 2024-25 and a stint with the U.S. Select Team during the 2024 offseason. But Jamaica represents another option, and one in which he could conceivably play with his twin brother. While Jamaica does not have any previous experience in either the Olympics or the FIBA World Cup, the team has already secured a playing commitment from Los Angeles Clippers star Norman Powell, which —especially if combined with the Thompson twins — could make them a formidable side.
