Former Colorado star KJ Simpson wins NBA Summer League title with the Charlotte Hornets
Former Colorado basketball star point guard KJ Simpson concluded his second summer league stint with an NBA Summer League championship after the Charlotte Hornets beat the Sacramento Kings, 83-78. Simpson started for the Hornets along with Charlotte's 2025 first-round selection, former Duke guard Kon Knueppel. Despite the win, Simpson struggled offensively in the final but made up for it in other areas. In 31 minutes of action, Simpson tallied 11 points, seven rebounds and five assists on 4-of-15 shooting from the field and 1-of-6 from 3-point range. Knueppel, who was named the game's MVP, praised the former Colorado guard for being the Hornets' leader throughout the Summer League. Simpson was quick to point out that Knueppel was deserving of the award. "Kon, nah, he deserved that, man. He was excellent in this game," Simpson said. "We all played well. It [the MVP award] could have been anybody. I just wanted to go out there and help lead the team. Just be a good vocal leader. It was a team win, shoutout to Kon, shoutout to everybody, man. Simpson is entering his second year in the NBA and has shown significant growth during the 10-day summer event, averaging 16 points, 5.7 assists and 5.5 rebounds per game in six Summer League games. The Hornets have to like what they saw from Simpson, a former second-round pick, leading Charlotte's young core to a title. Simpson and the Hornets got the win over former Buff Nique Clifford, who scored 10 points in 33 minutes of action. Follow Charlie Strella on X, Threads and Instagram.

Prime Day is over but REI's sale is going strong — I've found the best deals under $25 on Patagonia, Columbia and more
Today is the last day of Prime Day... praise be. We're still vetting the best Prime Day deals live if you're in the market for Amazon sales. If you want to put your money elsewhere, though, you've got plenty of choices. I'm all about the REI sale right now. If I need new outdoor gear, it's always the first place I check. I know I can trust REI for ethical and high quality products. REI's anti-Prime Day sale includes tons of deals under $25 at REI, including iconic brands like Patagonia and Columbia. And the best part? REI's discounts won't end today unlike Amazon's — you can get the best deals way into the weekend. Right now you can get the HydroFlask 32 oz Tumbler for just $23 from REI — an amazing saving. But the best deal of all? The REI Co-op leggings are just $20 — down from a whopping $69 — and they have pockets! They're also still available in every single size in the pink shade. I'm Erin Bashford, and I love hiking and spending time outdoors. I've got loads of outdoor gear, including products from Patagonia, Columbia, Teva, Buff, and Merrell. I've hiked Mount Fuji in Japan (wearing my Merrell hiking boots and my Patagonia jacket!), Mount Hood in Oregon, and almost every National Park in South Korea and the U.K.. There are a few versions of this sale. The cheapest fleece is the pictured red shade, just $8 down from $30. It's still available in all sizes, so it will suit little and big kids. There's also a black version available in all sizes, but it's $11 — so if you want to save the extra $3, I'd go for the red! How gorgeous is this bandana? I'm obsessed. REI has a range of graphic bandanas under its own brand, but I like this color the best. As it's a bandana, it's crazy versatile: use it as a headband, a handkerchief, a backpack decoration, and more. It's even made from organic cotton! I have a Buff, and I love it so much. I don't go on any hikes without it now. This is the winter Buff, so you'd wear this as a functional scarf during the colder months. This Buff is made out of 2 plastic bottles — so you know you're helping the planet while wearing! REI's own brand beanie wicks moisture and is breathable while also keeping you warm. It's 30% wool, but completely itch-free, making it the perfect versatile fall or winter hat! This beanie is available in green, orangey red, and blue at a discount. Other colors remain full price. Stance socks are described as really comfy by users online, and these beautiful ones are no different. They're reinforced in the heels and the toes to prevent rubbing, and are made from combed cotton so they're uber soft. Every outdoor lover needs to have a reliable camping utensil set, right? This handy one from UCO is just $13 and has a fork, spoon, plate, and bowl. It has a lifetime warranty and a leakproof lid, so you can chuck it into your backpack, worry-free. This is the perfect headband for cold weather. The soft fabric will keep your ears warm and also make you look stylish! I love the mauve color (pictured), but the sale extends to the red shade too. This headband actually has extra-long fibers, which help you stay warmer than ever. Um, I need to draw your attention to the POCKETS on these leggings. How many times have we begged and pleaded with manufacturers to just put pockets in our leggings? Rejoice, for they have finally listened to us. The pockets can fit everything from iPhones to snacks, and I know if I had these leggings, I'd be lounging in them more than I'd care to admit. Or, you know, working out in them. As you're supposed to. This is such a versatile t shirt. It's got a boxy fit, which is what I'm looking for when shopping for workout gear. I hate feeling restricted when I'm hiking or doing yoga. This unisex shirt is still available in most sizes, and even has UPF 50+ for sun protection! I honestly want to add this shirt to my cart, like now. I'm actually in love with this t-shirt. How cute is that alpaca? (Or is it a llama?) It's available in blue and brown, and in all sizes except large. This shirt is made from a mixture of organic cotton and recycled polyester, so it's good for the planet, too. I'm literally obsessed with this print. How cute is this towel? Not only does it look stylish, it's also functional. The reverse has looped terrycloth, so it's capable of drying super fast. The towel is also Cotton LEADS certified so you know the materials are ethical, too. I have two words for you: thumb holes. Yes, this shirt has thumb holes. I'm always on the hunt for two things: shirts with thumb holes, and pants with pockets. Thankfully, with the REI leggings I mentioned above, my dreams have come true. This sweat wicking fabric will keep you dry no matter how sweaty the workout, and you'll look cool while doing it too. These shorts are available in blue and black in sizes XS, XL, and XXL. They're 5 inches long so perfect for workouts, hikes, or just running errands. They're also made with recycled polyester and have Adidas' "Aeroready" technology which will keep you dry. Oh, and a sweat-guarded back pocket, so your phone and keys will stay dry too. How cute is this hat? If I had this I'd be excited for winter for the sole purpose of wearing this hat. It's available in both green (pictured) and pinky red. And the best part? It's lined with sherpa fleece on the inside to keep you toasty all winter long. The HydroFlask 32 oz size with a straw is on sale for $11 right now, at just $23. It's discounted in dusky pink (pictured) and gray, but I love this pink shade. It's got a secure lid, so you don't need to worry about it spilling when you're out and about. This Marmot Cairns Mountain Works t-shirt is made from recycled polyester and breathable cotton, so it's perfect for hikes and everyday wear. The collar is rib-knit, too, so it won't stretch too easily. This shirt is available in small in both blue and white. Psst to all the women reading this — I'd definitely wear this, even though it says "men's". If you're feeling in the mood for some Amazon deals, be sure to check out our Amazon Prime Day live blog for major savings. We've rounded up discounts on everything from kitchen appliances to TVs. Check out all the stuff you can get for free this Prime Day too!
