espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/39916820/stanford-tara-vanderveer-retirement-just-felt-ready

Quick Glance: Tara VanDerveer announces retirement after historic coaching career

After 38 seasons leading the Stanford women’s team and a total of 45 years, Tara VanDerveer, the coach with the most wins in NCAA history, announced her retirement on Tuesday night.

In January, the 70-year-old VanDerveer surpassed Mike Krzyzewski in terms of the wins record. She leaves the stage with a total of 1,216 victories across Idaho, Ohio State, and Stanford University.

Her impact will endure, given her consistent dedication to mentoring fellow coaches, whether through sharing game footage or offering support and insights in the visiting team's locker room.

VanDerveer’s final day is set for May 8, marking the 39th anniversary of her hiring. She intends to maintain an advisory role for the school and athletic department going forward.

Quick Glance: Stanford's Top Scorer Kiki Iriafen Enters Transfer Portal

Stanford junior Kiki Iriafen, one of the top women's basketball players in the country heading into the next season, has reportedly entered the transfer portal.

Iriafen, a 6-foot-3 forward hailing from Los Angeles, led the Cardinal this season as the top scorer (19.4 PPG) and second-best rebounder (11.0).

Iriafen showcased exceptional performances throughout the season, including notable games with 26 points and 10 rebounds against NC State and 41 points and 16 rebounds against Iowa State.

Iriafen's departure leaves Stanford without their key player for the upcoming season, especially with Cameron Brink moving on to the WNBA draft. Stanford is also set for coaching changes with Tara VanDerveer stepping down and Kate Paye expected to assume the role.

Quick Glance: Women's NCAA Title Game Shines with Record Viewership

South Carolina’s victory of 87-75 over Caitlin Clark and Iowa in the women’s NCAA championship game marks a historic moment. For the first time, the women's game surpassed the men's title game, achieving the second-highest viewership for a non-Olympic women's sporting event on U.S. television.

The viewership for the Sunday afternoon game, which awarded the Gamecocks their fourth national title and denied Clark's Hawkeyes their first, peaked at 24.1 million during the final 15 minutes. Nielsen's figures include an estimate of individuals watching outside their homes, a metric not previously accounted for before 2020.

The audience for the national title game increased by 90% compared to the previous year when Clark and Iowa faced off against LSU. Moreover, this was the inaugural occurrence since 1995 of the championship being broadcast on network television.

During the Final Four, Clark emphasized the positive impact of audience growth on all women's sports, not solely basketball. Fox broadcasted 14 women's games this season, including three in prime time, NBC featured two, and CBS televised the Big Ten tournament championship. ABC presented five regular-season games and nine during the NCAA Tournament.

Jrue Holiday, Celtics Agree To Four-Year, $135M Extension

espn.com/nba/story/_/id/39916819/jrue-holiday-boston-celtics-agree-4-year-135-million-contract-extension

Quick Glance: Celtics Extend Contract with Jrue Holiday for $135 Million over 4 Years: Sources

The Celtics reached an agreement on Wednesday with guard Jrue Holiday for a four-year, $135 million contract extension, as confirmed by league sources. The news of the deal was initially reported by ESPN. Holiday was part of the trade last offseason where the Bucks traded him to the Celtics in exchange for players and two first-round picks. Prior to that, the Blazers acquired Holiday in a three-team deal involving player exchanges. Holiday, aged 33, boasts a two-time NBA All-Star and three-time NBA All-Defensive First Team accolades. He clinched an NBA championship with the Bucks in 2021. Throughout the 2023-24 season, Holiday is averaging 12.5 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 4.9 assists per game.

Once again, the Celtics successfully negotiated a significant offseason addition into accepting a reduction in salary for an extension. Al Horford agreed to a two-year, $60 million extension following his trade to Boston in the summer, and now Holiday will forego his $37.4 million player option to kickstart an extension beginning at approximately $30 million annually. This extension provides Holiday with security well into his late 30s, while also retaining a player option post the potential salary spike from the next TV deal. Holiday promptly assumed the role of the team's defensive leader upon arriving in Boston. His adaptability and leadership in coordinating the team's defensive schemes contributed to Boston achieving the league's second-best defensive rating.

Quick Glance: Charlotte Hornets Interview Lindsey Harding for Head Coaching Role: Insider

The Charlotte Hornets have been given the green light to engage with Lindsey Harding, the coach of the G League’s Stockton Kings, for the head coaching position in Charlotte, as confirmed by a league insider on Monday.

If selected, Harding would make history as the first woman to lead an NBA team as head coach. Recently, Harding was honored as the NBA G League Coach of the Year for guiding the Stockton Kings to an impressive season record of 24-10.

At 39 years old, Harding was the top pick by the Phoenix Mercury in the 2007 WNBA Draft. She made headlines last year as the sole female head coach in the NBA or G League, debuting against the Santa Cruz Warriors in November 2023.

Despite the scarcity of women in NBA coaching roles, an increasing number are excelling as player development coaches or serving as second or third assistants.

The Details of Shohei Ohtani’s Interpreter‘s Gambling Habit Are Stunning: Ippei Mizuhara lost more than $40 million in just over two years.

Quick Glance: Ippei Mizuhara Remains Free Despite Bank Fraud Charges on $25,000 Bond

Former interpreter for baseball star Shohei Ohtani from the Los Angeles Dodgers surrendered to authorities and later appeared before the U.S. District Court.

Ippei Mizuhara turned himself in on Friday and was subsequently released on an unsecured $25,000 bond, commonly referred to as a signature bond. This arrangement allowed Mizuhara to secure his release without needing to provide any cash or collateral.

United States Magistrate Judge Maria A. Audero also stipulated that Mizuhara must undergo treatment for his gambling addiction related to the sports betting scandal. Prosecutors alleged that he exploited his personal and professional connection with Ohtani to steal over $16 million from the player's bank account by occasionally posing as Ohtani to bankers to cover his gambling expenses.

On Friday, Mizuhara only responded to the judge's inquiries by answering 'yes' when Audero asked him if he comprehended various aspects of the case and his bond conditions.
