Maxwell Lewis becomes Nets roster casualty with historic draft class coming in

The Nets waived forward Maxwell Lewis on Friday, clearing up roster space after taking the biggest crop of first-round draft picks in NBA history. Lewis had initially arrived in the Dec. 29 trade that had sent Dorian Finney-Smith to the Lakers, but he immediately fractured his left tibia making a 3-pointer seconds into his New Year's Day debut. The injury stunted his opportunity to show what he could do, in the end averaging 5.3 points in 14.2 minutes over just 21 appearances.

The Nets took five players in the first round of Wednesday's NBA draft, a league record. Two days later, they waived Lewis to clear the deck.

The schedule was released Friday, showing four games, though every team is guaranteed to play at least five tilts. 4 Egor Demin of the Brooklyn Nets speaks to the media after being drafted eighth overall during the 2025 NBA Draft at Barclays Center on June 25, 2025, in the Brooklyn borough of New York City.

Six-foot-11 Alabama forward Grant Nelson and 6-foot-5 Oregon wing TJ Bamba will both join the Nets for the summer league. The former is in the mix for a two-way contract, per HoopsHype, while the latter is a Bronx native who was on the Big Ten All-Defensive team. 4 Maxwell Lewis was waived by the Brooklyn Nets on Friday. Getty Images Sunday is the deadline for Brooklyn to pick up team options on Timme, Keon Johnson, Tyrese Martin and Jalen Wilson, as well as make qualifying offers to Cam Thomas, Day'Ron Sharpe and Ziaire Williams in order to make them restricted free agents. Advertisement Without qualifying offers, they'll become unrestricted free agents. Timme can play with the Nets' summer league team even if Brooklyn doesn't pick up his team option.

Axios Event: Media execs are betting big on women's sports

CANNES, France – Media executives are focusing investments into the fast-growing market of women's sports, they said at an Axios event at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. Why it matters: Women's sports is booming in viewership, engagement and fandoms as more women's teams are launching and business executives are noticing the growth opportunities. Axios' Sara Fischer spoke with Roku Media president Charlie Collier, NBCUniversal global advertising and partnerships chairman Mark Marshall, NBC Sports host and play-by-play announcer Mike Tirico and Tubi CEO Anjali Sud at the June 18 event, sponsored by Nielsen. What they're saying: Roku Media and Tubi see opportunities in investing and promoting women's sports. "We have all sorts of women's sports and we have a women's sport zone and we've invested in women's volleyball and we've invested in women's soccer," Collier said. "Platforms like iON that had the [WNBA player] Caitlin Clark games as part of their package before Caitlin Clark blew up, we absolutely made sure that we got our viewers to those games on iON. It wasn't our rights, but it was absolutely our right to elevate that pop-cultural moment," he added. "For women in sports in particular, there's just a need here. There's a vacuum that I think we have an opportunity to fill," Sud said. Sud also mentioned that Gen Z audiences care about the stories behind the athletes as well as the game, so Tubi is developing more "shoulder content" to appeal to younger audiences. "We just announced … a [tennis player] Naomi Osaka doc that's going to be coming out on Tubi in August," Sud said. "It's going to be talking about her journey coming back into the game after having a baby." "Beyond the diehard sports fans, there are people who are in it for the culture. And we need to serve them with compelling stories and content and build that momentum." Separately, NBC Sports discussed its major deal with the NBA, which will broadcast on NBC from Sunday to Tuesday nights, blending linear and streaming to maximize reach. "Sunday, we'll have a pregame and then the game," Tirico said. "Monday, there'll be games on Peacock. …Tuesday, on NBC. … We'll have an NBA game on the East Coast at 8 Eastern time and then we'll have a game for our Mountain and Pacific time zone affiliates at 8 o'clock Pacific time." "What I'm excited about is the amount of NBA that will be on broadcast TV in prime time. So you'll have a game every week on Tuesday night, which I think will be a boost for the league and really get the package off to a great start." Marshall added: "Part of what I really was hoping for and it worked out was to be on the front half of the week and so we can promote the rest of the entertainment programming that will happen on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Whereas, you know, 'Sunday Night Football,' that's what we've done for years. Now we'll actually go from 'Sunday Night Football' to 'Sunday Night Basketball' on Peacock every Monday night and Tuesday on NBC prime time." "So all of a sudden we have this huge promotional platform that's going to bring a younger, more multicultural audience to NBC that's probably been there, that's not there every week as we sit here today." In a View From the Top conversation, Nielsen CEO Karthik Rao emphasized the major growth of women's sports.

Rocket Classic scoring record broken again in second round at Detroit Golf Club

Todd Lewis and Jim Gallagher Jr. break down Jake Knapp's Round 2 showing during the Rocket Classic, where the 31-year-old American shot a course record 61 at Detroit Golf Club. DETROIT — Jake Knapp shot an 11-under 61 to break a Rocket Classic record that stood for less than a day, becoming the first PGA Tour player to break 60 and shoot a 61 or lower in the same season. Knapp started the second round 130th in the 156-player field after opening with a 72. He surged into contention Friday with nine birdies and an eagle in a bogey-free round. 'I was just probably upset all night and this morning, so I think that maybe helped a little bit,' he said. Knapp, ranked No. 99 in the world, is the only player on the Tour to shoot 61 or better in two rounds this season. He shot a 59 — one off the Tour scoring record of 58 set by Jim Furyk in 2016 — at the Cognizant Classic four months ago, when he broke the tournament scoring record before cooling off and finishing tied for sixth. Knapp broke the 18-hole record at Detroit Golf Club that was set Thursday in the first round when Aldrich Potgieter and Kevin Roy both shot a 62. 'I feel like when I start making birdies, I want to make more,' Knapp said. 'I was even kind of thinking about 59 when I stuck it close on my third to last hole.'
