Chicago Sky Make Major Announcement on Wednesday
Chicago Sky Make Major Announcement on Wednesday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Chicago Sky have struggled to start the WNBA season, working under first-year head coach Tyler Marsh. Marsh has led the Sky to a 2-6 record, having lost back-to-back games to the Indiana Fever and the New York Liberty. Advertisement Amid the disappointing season for the Sky, they dealt some exciting news to fans, which could soften the blow of their record for a short while. Chicago officially announced that they will be retiring Allie Quigley's No. 14. They will put the jersey in the rafters on July 9. "See you soon 14," posted the official social media account of the Chicago Sky. "The Chicago Sky will retire Allie Quigley's jersey on July 9, 2025." Upon the release of the news, Quigley took to social media, sharing her thoughts on an incredible career with the Chicago Sky. "It's not easy saying goodbye to basketball, but I feel so lucky to have been able to play in the WNBA and live out my dream," Quigley said. "To be able to play in Chicago for my hometown team?!? It doesn't get any better, all I can say is thank you." Allie Quigley recently retired from the WNBA after playing 15 seasons, 10 of which came with the Chicago Sky. Advertisement During her WNBA career, Quigley helped lead the Sky to the WNBA title in 2021. She was also formally honored with her success, having been named a two-time Sixth Woman of the Year and a three-time All-Star. Chicago Sky coach Tyler Marsh.

Royals Make Concerning Cole Ragans Announcement After Loss to Yankees
Royals Make Concerning Cole Ragans Announcement After Loss to Yankees originally appeared on Athlon Sports. After a tremendous 2024 season, it would appear Cole Ragans just isn't the same this year. Despite owning a 2.28 ERA after his first four starts this season, Ragans now has a 5.18 ERA, and five of his last six starts have yielded four or more runs. Advertisement Much of that was attributed to a groin injury that sidelined Ragans on May 16. When he returned June 5 against the Cardinals in St. Louis, his performance wasn't much better, as he yielded five runs in three innings in what was statistically his worst start of the season. There might be a reason for Ragans' rough recent outing, and Royals fans aren't thrilled. Kansas City Royals pitcher Cole Ragans throws a pitch against the New York Yankees in Game 2 of the ALDS at Yankee Stadium on Oct. 7, Carchietta-Imagn Images Ragans went back on the 15-day IL, this time with a rotator cuff strain, the team announced. Hard-throwing reliever Lucas Erceg, acquired at the 2024 trade deadline, was reinstated in a corresponding move. The injury, which was retroactive to June 8, appears to be wholly unrelated to his previous groin injury, though it's possible that he injured his shoulder in an attempt to compensate for his injured leg. Advertisement It's a big hit for the Royals' rotation, though rookie phenom Noah Cameron has dazzled in Ragans' place, and Kris Bubic has entered the All-Star conversation with his stellar performance of late. One user on X pointed out that Ragans has been very unlucky statistically, with his expected ERA sitting at 2.60, and his 32.9% whiff percentage being an elite 91st percentile. All of that doesn't matter if Ragans can't stay on the field, though, and Royals fans have reason to be worried about their ace, who started Game 1 of the American League Wild Card last fall.

Victor Wembanyama shaves head as he takes retreat at China's Shaolin Temple
Victor Wembanyama is tapping into his inner monk. As part of an offseason excursion to China, the 7-foot-4 Spurs center is taking part in a 10-day retreat at the 1,500-year-old Shaolin Temple. Photos of Wembanyama, 21, with a newly shaved head circulated on social media this week, and the NBA's China office confirmed that the Frenchman is at the Buddhist temple. Advertisement According to Spurs reporter Dusty Garza, Wemby is undergoing a 'journey of inner discipline, focus and mind-body harmony.' Wembanyama is readying for his third NBA season after he was diagnosed with season-ending blood clots in his right shoulder in February. Advertisement He enjoyed a terrific sophomore season until that point, earning an All-Star nod by averaging 24.3 points and 11 rebounds per game. But besides his dazzling play on the court, Wembanyama has endeared himself to fans through his quirky and sometimes nerdy persona. The 21-year-old is a proud bookworm — a fan of science fiction, to be specific — and he's also a chess lover who played with fans at Washington Square Park after San Antonio took on the Knicks and Nets in late December. But the foray into Buddhist monkhood is certainly Wembanyama's most notable off-court endeavor yet. Advertisement Spurs center Victor Wembanyama in a game against the Knicks on Dec. 25, 2024. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post Fans on social media had varying reactions to the news. 'This is the separation right here,' said one user on X. 'MVP otw.' 'We need to start calling him Zenbanyama,' wrote another. Advertisement Spurs center Victor Wembanyama chats with coach Gregg Popovich during a game on Dec. 13, 2023. AP Others were more skeptical about how useful the retreat would truly be, and a few couldn't help but make cracks about Aaron Rodgers, who took a four-day darkness retreat in 2023. 'Y'all hated when Aaron Rodgers did this,' said one user, with another posting: 'Is he turning into Aaron Rodgers?' The Spurs have yet to make a playoff appearance since drafting Wembanyama, but the franchise appears to be trending toward contention after making a deal for star point guard De'Aaron Fox at the trade deadline. When San Antonio does crack into the postseason, perhaps Wembanyama's newfound spiritual awakening will prove helpful.
