Check out which summer leagues Florida baseball players will be participating in
The Florida baseball program will have 15 current players participating in various summer leagues over the next couple of months.
Most notably, starting right-handers Liam Peterson and Aidan King, along with 54 other premier, non-draft-eligible college players, will take part in the USA Baseball Collegiate National Team training camp in North Carolina from June 29 to July 3. The other events the remaining 13 Gators will compete at are the Coastal Plain League (North and South Carolina, Virginia and Georgia), Northwoods League (Michigan, Wisconsin and Illinois), and the Valley League in the Shenandoah Valley region of Virginia.
Considered the top level of summer ball play, the Cape Cod League features eight Gators on four different teams, with right-handed pitcher Caden McDonald, infielder Landon Stripling and outfielder Hayden Yost all teammates on the Wareham Gatemen. Righties Luke McNeillie and Christian Rodriguez will compete on behalf of the Harwich Mariners while outfielder Blake Cyr and infielder Brendan Lawson suit up for the Brewster Whitecaps; outfielder Ashton Wilson is the lone UF player on the Falmouth Commodores.
Meanwhile, infielder Kolt Myers and right-hander Schuyler Sandford have both seen action this summer for the Macon Bacon in the Coastal Plain League already, while left-handed pitcher McCall Biemiller will play for the Charlottesville Tom Sox and outfielder Blake Brookins is on the Purcellville Cannons in the Valley League.
Incoming transfer catcher AJ Malzone is behind the dish with the Rockford Rivets and the only Gator included among the Northwoods League's rosters.

Official: Pelicans acquire additional first-round pick in 2025 NBA draft from Pacers
The New Orleans Pelicans announced on Tuesday that they acquired the No. 23 pick in the 2025 NBA draft from the Indiana Pacers. Shams Charania of ESPN was the first to report the trade. The Pacers are also sending the Pelicans the draft rights to Mojave King, the 47th overall pick in 2023. They are acquiring their own 2026 first-round pick from the Pelicans, which was previously dealt to the Toronto Raptors in the trade involving Pascal Siakam. The transaction is expected to provide the Pacers with some salary-cap relief, which will help in their efforts to re-sign center Myles Turner this offseason. They are projected to be approximately $20 million under the luxury tax, according to Bobby Marks of ESPN. The Pelicans now have the Nos. 7 and 23 picks in the first round of the 2025 NBA draft following the trade. The group finished with a 21-61 record last season and appears to be looking to retool the roster through the draft by adding another selection. New Orleans has hosted predraft workouts with several potential first-round targets, including Nique Clifford (Colorado State), Cedric Coward (Washington State), Egor Demin (BYU), Kon Knueppel (Duke), Asa Newell (Georgia) and Derik Queen (Maryland), among others.

Streaming Has Overtaken Traditional TV for the First Time Ever
Streaming became the most popular single form of TV usage years ago, but that was not its final hurdle. The juggernaut of broadcast and cable television combined meant that consumers were still using traditional TV services more than streaming overall, even if streaming was more popular than either of them individually. According to data from Nielsen, streaming just overcame this final hurdle. Nielsen says that in May, cable television accounted for 24.1% of all TV usage and broadcast TV represented 20.1% of all viewership for a total of 44.2%. Streaming services accounted for 44.8% of total viewership, just surpassing the combined efforts of cable and broadcast. This has happened on single days, namely during large events such as the Mike Tyson-Jake Paul fight on Netflix, but streaming has never sustained that edge for an entire month. The numbers were aided by the addition of more streaming services to Nielsen's metrics. The original list included streaming giants like Netflix, Disney+, YouTube, Hulu and Amazon's Prime Video. It was expanded to 11 total services and now includes the Roku Channel, Paramount+, Tubi, Peacock, and Warner Bros. Discovery. The next milestone for streaming will be keeping this lead for an entire quarter. For the time being, cable and broadcast still rule that statistic, combining for 57.6% of all TV streaming in the first quarter of 2025, with streaming comprising 42.4%. Should streaming keep its current lead, the second quarter of 2025 could mark the first quarter that streaming overtakes traditional TV and holds the lead. YouTube and Netflix winning big YouTube led the way for streaming services at a hefty 12.5% of viewership. Following that is Netflix, which remains the largest single video-on-demand service, a title it's held for four years in a row. Rounding out the top five is Disney via Disney+ and Hulu, Prime Video, and the Roku Channel. However, YouTube is the biggest winner. Not only does it lead all streaming services in market share, but it also has the highest share ever measured by Nielsen and leads the way in a growing segment of free, ad-supported services, also known as FAST services. The other FAST services measured by the data firm, including PlutoTV, the Roku Channel, and Tubi, combined for 5.7% of all TV viewing in May 2025, which is more than any individual broadcast network over the same time.
