Quick Glance: NBA: Zion-less Pelicans Triumph Over Kings, Secure Playoffs

The New Orleans Pelicans overcome Zion Williamson's absence to keep the season alive and achieve a significant victory.

Brandon Ingram scored 24 points, with Jonas Valanciunas contributing 19 points and 12 rebounds, resulting in the Pelicans securing a spot in the NBA playoffs. They defeated the Sacramento Kings 105-98 in a play-in tournament elimination game on Friday night.

Utilizing a well-balanced approach, New Orleans improved to an 8-5 record this season without Williamson. Six players each scored 10 or more points, including reserves Larry Nance Jr. (13), Naji Marshall (11), and Jose Alvarado (10).

Facing a crucial test after missing opportunities to secure a playoff berth at home, the Pelicans demonstrated their ability to handle the pressure of a do-or-die game.

Newsom proposes law to help Arizonans get abortions in California: The emergency legislation the governor is seeking would expedite the licenses of Arizona ...

washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/04/21/gavin-newsom-abortion-arizona/

Quick Glance: Newsom Proposes Law to Aid Arizonans in Getting Abortions in California

California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) announced plans to introduce legislation to assist Arizonans in obtaining abortions in his state following a recent decision by the Arizona Supreme Court allowing a near-total abortion ban from 1864 to take effect.

The emergency legislation aims to expedite the licenses of Arizona abortion providers to treat patients in California and will be presented this week through the legislature's women's caucus.

Newsom emphasized the importance of a prompt response to Republican-led abortion restrictions, criticizing the GOP for their stance. His political action committee is funding ads against bills limiting abortion access.

Newsom intends to campaign on the abortion issue in swing states Arizona and Nevada to support a Democratic win in the presidential election and Senate control, calling President Trump a liar regarding his position on nationwide abortion bans.

Dangerous games: What’s next for Mike Brown, Vivek Ranadivé and the Sacramento Kings

Quick Glance: Potential Trade Moves for Sacramento Kings Post Stagnation

After a promising season, the Kings' playoff debut ended after just one season. Despite similar performance to the previous year, altered expectations led to disappointment. The Kings find themselves stuck in the NBA's Maddening Middle, where progress is painstaking, exhilaration fleeting.

The Kings have a solid foundation with emerging players like Fox, Sabonis, and Murray. Despite missing the play-in, the core for a strong playoff team is in place. The challenge now lies in making the leap from good to great, meeting high expectations, and navigating the competitive Western Conference.

Despite a promising season, the Kings were not as dominant as before. Improvements in defense and offensive challenges shaped their course. Sacramento needs patience and strategic decisions to thrive in the tough Western Conference, make the next step, and stay competitive.

Quick Glance: Bringing Oakland Athletics to Sacramento is Wrong | Opinion

Sports radio personality David Weiglein, known as 'Carmichael Dave', opposes the temporary relocation of the Oakland Athletics to Sacramento by Kings owner Vivek Ranadive.

Weiglein argues that bringing the Oakland Athletics to Sacramento is wrong due to owner John Fisher being considered one of the worst in sports and advocates for the A's to remain in Oakland.

He cautions that Sacramento would receive a bad reputation as game attendance might dwindle after the initial novelty wears off, leaving loyal fans feeling duped.

Weiglein draws a parallel to the heroic story of saving the Sacramento Kings from moving to Seattle, emphasizing his refusal to engage with an owner like Fisher.

Quick Glance: Google terminates 28 employees after office occupation due to anti-Israel protests

Google terminated 28 employees on Thursday who had occupied its offices to protest against contracts with the Israeli government, as confirmed by a Google spokesperson.

The protesters were arrested and after refusing to leave the office of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in Sunnyvale or the workspace in New York City for nearly 10 hours, they were transferred to administrative positions to urge Google to terminate the Project Nimbus contract and cease business with the Israeli government.

No Tech For Apartheid, a project by Jewish Voice for Peace and Linda Sarsour’s MPower Change, described the terminations as an "indiscriminate act of mass retaliation."

The office occupations at Google were accompanied by demonstrations on-site and in Seattle, aiming to compel Google to withdraw from the project to establish cloud-based data centers and transition a significant portion of the Israeli government's IT infrastructure to cloud-based servers.

Quick Glance: 99 Cents Only to Close All 371 Stores and Cease Longstanding Business

After more than four decades, 99 Cents Only will close all 371 of its stores and cease its business operations.

The decision was made due to various challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic, shifting consumer demand, inflationary pressures, and increasing levels of shrinkage.

The closure of 99 Cents Only reflects a broader weakness in the dollar-store category, with other major retailers also announcing store closures.

Established in 1982 in Los Angeles, 99 Cents Only was a trailblazer in single-price retail and faced pressure from rising wages and competition from larger chains.
