Ben Shelton Defeats Taylor Fritz In An All-American Semifinal In Toronto
Fourth-seeded Ben Shelton beat second-seeded Taylor Fritz 6-4, 6-3 in an all-American semifinal match Wednesday night in the National Bank Open Open. Shelton will face 11th-seeded Karen Khachanov of Russia, a 6-3, 4-6, 7-6 (4) winner over top-seeded Alexander Zverev of Germany in the first semifinal in Masters 1000 hard-court event. 'I've seen so many big improvements in my game this week, that's what I'm most happy about, how I'm executing, how little I'm hesitating, how I'm returning,' Shelton said. 'There are a lot of things to be proud about and beating two top-10 guys back-to-back is huge for me.' The 22-year-old Shelton is seeking his third career ATP Tour title. He won in Tokyo on hard courts in 2023 and Houston last year on clay. 'I'm just really excited to see myself executing like this, not wondering if the shot is going to go in or out, but expecting it to go in," Shelton said. The 26-year-old Fritz has 10 career victories, winning this year on grass at Stuttgart and Eastbourne. Khachanov, a seven-time tour winner, survived a match point. 'Today was a real close one,' Khachanov said 'I was match-point down. If the ball touches the net and drops over we wouldn't be talking now.' Zverev, the 2017 champion with 24 tour titles, is No. 3 in the world. 'The first set was terrible,' Zverev said. 'I kind of gave him a headstart and he's too good to not use that.' Zverev was the top seed with top-ranked Jannik Sinner — the 2023 winner — and No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz skipping the expanded event.

The possibility of a blockbuster move linking the Milwaukee Bucks to Atlanta Hawks star guard Trae Young has quickly become one of the most intriguing storylines in the NBA trade rumor mill. With Young eligible for a four-year, $222 million extension and coming off a season where he averaged 24.2 points and led the league with 11.6 assists, the idea of pairing him with Giannis Antetokounmpo is drawing serious attention. For the Milwaukee Bucks , adding an elite playmaker could be the key to unlocking another championship run, while for Atlanta, the decision hinges on whether to commit long-term to their ball-dominant All-Star or pivot toward a new team direction. One of the most prominent names in this season's trade chatter is Atlanta Hawks star guard Trae Young. Trae Young's Role in Atlanta's Offense Trae Young has been the driving force of the Hawks' offense, delivering 24.2 points per game alongside a league-best 11.6 assists last season. His vision and shot creation make him an elite playmaker, and at just 26 years old, he remains in his athletic prime. Yet, Young's style comes with concerns. His ball-dominant approach can limit offensive diversity, and his defensive shortcomings have been a consistent issue for Atlanta's overall performance. The Contract Factor Giannis Antetokounmpo (Image via USA Today) Young is signed through 2027 and is eligible for a four-year, $222 million extension. His current salary already ranks among the highest in the league, which raises questions about Atlanta's future financial flexibility. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like These Are The Most Beautiful Women In The World Undo The Hawks must decide if they are committed to building long-term around such a costly piece. Young's Current Contract Status Contract End Year Extension Eligibility Potential Extension Value 2027 2025 Offseason 4 years, $222 million Roster Changes and Future Direction This offseason, the Hawks reshaped their roster with notable moves: • Acquired Kristaps Porzingis via trade • Signed Nickeil Alexander-Walker • Added Luke Kennard for perimeter shooting • Drafted forward Asa Newell These additions suggest a shift toward a more balanced offensive system with improved floor spacing. However, they also create challenges in future salary distribution, especially if Young commands a new max extension. Trade Possibilities If Atlanta's front office is unsure about committing to a long-term deal, now may be the optimal time to explore trade scenarios to maximize Young's value rather than risk losing him for nothing in the future. Team Reason for Fit Phoenix Suns Elite playmaker to pair with scoring wings Milwaukee Bucks Offensive spark alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo As Brandon Austin of Proo Football Network noted, 'These aren't hard-and-fast predictions, but rather reasonable possibilities.' That sentiment perfectly captures the current situation for Trae Young and the Hawks. While he remains the face of the franchise today, the combination of salary cap implications, team direction, and market interest means Atlanta's star could be one of the league's most talked-about names in trade discussions this season.

The future of the organization got brighter today."The contract buys out all of Anthony's team-controlled years and at least two free-agent seasons, keeping him in Boston potentially through age 30.
