LeBron James’ move to Philadelphia makes 76ers east’s betting favorite

LeBron James’ move to Philadelphia makes 76ers east’s betting favorite

LAS VEGAS — LeBron James might have shifted the power in the Eastern Conference — and perhaps the NBA in general — when he ended eight seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers to sign with Philadelphia. The 76ers are consensus favorites — from 8-1 to 9-1 odds — in the East to win it all, even ahead of the defending champion New York Knicks. “I’m a Sixers fan, so I was very thrilled about it myself,” BetMGM Sportsbook trader Christian Cipollini said of King James going to Philadelphia. “Far and away, our most bet-on team, far and away our biggest liability (among contending teams)." How much James has left at age 41 will be a big question as the NBA season opens Tuesday, but he remained among the league's top players last season in LA. And he's not the only reason for high hopes in Philadelphia. The Sixers also added Jaylen Brown in a marquee trade with Boston. But Joel Embiid's health could put a major dent in any championship plans. The seven-time All-Star has played in fewer than 40 games each of the past three seasons. “I think it’s more Embiid, keeping him in one piece, that's going to be the key for them more than LeBron," longtime handicapper Bruce Marshall said. "It sort of all goes through him, and that’s been tough for Philly.” What about the champs? Jalen Brunson and the Knicks overcame the odds to win the title last season, and they will have to do it again if they are to repeat. Other than DraftKings Sportsbook, where they are 9-1 with the Sixers among Eastern teams to win the title, the Knicks sit just behind Philadelphia at BetMGM (10-1) and Caesars Sportsbook (9-1). “Just with the hype of Philly and LeBron going there, it's just been more 76ers money than Knicks money,” Caesars NBA oddsmaker David Lieberman said. “It's so hard to repeat, but obviously their run was so dominant in the postseason, it's hard to doubt them until they (actually) lose in the playoffs.” Thunder and Spurs again the favorites San Antonio and Oklahoma City are co-favorites at BetMGM (+260) and DraftKings (+270), with the Spurs at +270, just a touch ahead of the Thunders at +280 at Caesars. Both teams were in similar positions at the end of last season, with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder looking to repeat and the young Spurs led by Victor Wembanyama playing as well as any team in the league. The Spurs beat the Thunder in seven games to advance to the NBA Finals before losing in five games to the Knicks. “The Spurs look like they're probably the team to beat in the West,” Marshall said. “So I think that's probably the way it goes, and it might be that way for a while.” The Eastern Conference might be deeper Though the Western Conference has long been the NBA's best and deepest, times could be changing, even with the two favorites being on that side of the bracket. After the Spurs and Thunder, the next five teams — depending on the sportsbook — reside in the East. “Outside the top two teams, I think the East has more maybe viable candidates,” Lieberman said. “It's almost like you can pretty much write down the 11 teams that make the playoffs maybe in both conferences. But given there's no tanking incentives anymore, there could be a couple of surprise teams that make it in one of the conferences.” Haliburton boosts overlooked Pacers Indiana was in the NBA Finals just two seasons ago, its chances all but going up in smoke when Tyrese Haliburton tore his Achilles tendon in Game 7 against OKC. Now he's back, but the Pacers are 35-1 across the board to win the championship. “I think the East is stronger than a couple of years ago, and it would be tougher for them to do it,” Marshall said. “This is sort of the year it's got to happen. They've got a lot of guys coming up on free agency, so we'll see. Most of the guys are there that were on it a couple of years ago. If Haliburton hadn't gotten hurt, I thought they could've won that last game.” Watch out for the... Jazz? Few expect Utah to be a true contender this season, but there is optimism the Jazz could be on the way back with recent high draft picks Ace Bailey and Darryn Peterson and a core that includes Lauri Markkanen and Keyonte George. “I feel like there’s times where a team can make really big jumps,” Cipollini said. “The Jazz could be one of those, and just looking at the bets that were coming in, of the unrealistic teams to win, certainly the most amount of bets and one of our highest liability.

Carlos Yulo eyes double gold finish at Worlds

CARLOS Yulo looks to add another medal to his collection when he conquers the vault and floor exercise events at the 2026 FIG Artistic Gymnastics World Championships in Rotterdam. Fresh off winning a double gold medal in the 20th Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan, the two-time Olympic gold medalist is set to conquer the Rotterdam mats, eyeing another golden finish. Yulo displayed his caliber and placed second in the floor exercise event with 14.500 points and sixth on vault with 14.266 points to book a finals slot. The floor exercise final is slated for Oct. 24, while the vault final is scheduled for Oct. 25. Yulo garnered a total of 77.631 points, ranked 34th in the individual all-around, and was short of booking a final ticket, as only the top 24 gymnasts will head to the next round. While he displayed strong performances in vault and floor exercise, he only managed to tally 14.166 in parallel bars, 11.166 in pommel horse, 10.766 in horizontal bar, and 13.033 in still rings. The 26-year-old gymnast settled for a bronze medal in the floor exercise event at the 2025 World Championships. The last time he won a gold medal in his pet event was in 2019. While Yulo enjoys a peak form this year, Russian Dukhno Arsenii outscored the Filipino bet in the qualification round with 14.700 points, earning the top spot. But a different story goes for the vault apparatus as he needs to defend his 2025 Worlds title. He was a World champion in the previous edition after scoring 14.866 points in vault (15.200 on piked Dragulescu + 14.533 on handspring front 2.5 twist). The decorated gymnast edged out Armenia's Artur Davtyan (14.833) to reclaim the world title in vault — his second career gold on the apparatus (after winning it in 2021) and his third world title overall. Placing sixth in the qualification round does not paint the whole story for the Olympian gymnast as Yulo was known for hiding his routines in the qualification round. Recalling that he also slipped and fell flat during the Asian Games vault qualification round, before earning his second gold medal. His younger brother Eldrew, 18, who won a bronze medal in Asian Games, did not qualify for any final round as he was still grasping the senior level. Eldrew scored 8.666 points in parallel bars, his pet event. Followed by 10.866 score in horizontal bar, 12.100 in floor exercise, 11.933 in pommel horse, 9.833 in still rings, and 13.700 in vault. The 18-year-old Yulo totaled 67.032 points for his individual all-around performance, also not enough to book a finals ticket. The Gymnastics World Championships served as the highest-level global competition outside the Olympic Games.

Solar Spikers gun for 2nd win vs Thunderbelles

Solar Spikers gun for 2nd win vs Thunderbelles

THE loaded Capital 1 Solar Spikers are gunning for their second consecutive victory when they face the win-seeking ZUS Coffee Thunderbelles in the Premier Volleyball League (PVL) All-Filipino Conference-Siklab Series on Tuesday at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City. Capital 1 (1-1) and ZUS (0-1) open the Tuesday triple-header action at 1 p.m., followed by Spikers’ Turf teams National University and VNS Always Bright Laticrete chasing their first win at 3:30 p.m., and capped by the PLDT High Speed Hitters (0-1) and Akari Chargers (0-2) match at 6 p.m. The Solar Spikers secured their first win of the tournament after outlasting Akari in a thrilling five-setter, powered by Bella Belen’s career-high 35-point performance, which she stuffed with 20 excellent digs and 19 excellent receptions. “What I always draw motivation from is what we achieved last conference. Last conference, we didn’t make it to the playoffs. So this conference, more skillful players joined us. I feel like we have a chance to perform even better compared to last conference,” Belen told the media in Filipino. “All they want is for us to enjoy and win. That’s what we do every game, we try to enjoy, and of course, as much as possible, we need to win,” she added. As a young franchise that entered the PVL in 2024, Capital 1 has heavily bolstered its roster by adding fiery hitters Vanie Gandler and Erika Santos. After opening their campaign with a tight five-set heartbreaker against Choco Mucho, the squad bounced back strongly against the veteran-laden Akari side. Now eyeing their second straight win, the Jorge de Brito-mentored squad must prepare for a ZUS team bannered by Alexis Miner and Zam Nolasco. Miner and Nolasco contributed nine and eight points, respectively, in their straight-set loss to the Flying Titans. The Thunderbelles also feature veterans Jov Gonzaga and Rachel Daquis, who could provide the spark needed to lift the squad. Following the matchup between National University and VNS Always Bright Laticrete, the PLDT High Speed Hitters and Akari Chargers will clash for their first victory of the conference. PLDT was stunned by the Nxled Chameleons in its opening match, where Savi Davison led the team as the only double-digit scorer with 10 points, alongside Dell Palomata’s nine markers.

Letran, Benilde seek strong finish in crossover round

Letran, Benilde seek strong finish in crossover round

COLEGIO de San Juan de Letran and the College of Saint Benilde are gearing up to finish the NCAA Season 102 men’s basketball tournament crossover round with a statement victory on Tuesday at the Filoil EcoOil Centre in San Juan City. The action kicks off at 3 p.m. with the Letran Knights (5-3) locking horns with the Benilde Blazers (6-2). Following that matchup at 6 p.m., the University of Perpetual Help System-Dalta (2-6) will face off against the Jose Rizal University (JRU) Heavy Bombers (6-2). Letran heads into the game fresh off a hard-fought 70-66 win against JRU, powered by Chad Gammad’s 21 points and four rebounds, with Denzil Walker chipping in 11 markers. The Knights achieved the victory despite playing without their star guard, Titing Manalili, who continues to recover from a right knee injury sustained against the Lyceum of the Philippines University. “Despite Jonathan (Titing) not playing, I can see them step up, the other guards. I know the boys are working really hard and they worked as a team, they found their rhythm and we managed to handle the pressure,” head coach Allen Ricardo said during the post-game press conference. However, overcoming a vengeful Benilde squad will be no easy task. The Blazers are looking to bounce back from an 86-78 loss to Emilio Aguinaldo College, where Justine Sanchez and John Morales each contributed 16 points. A victory for Benilde could propel them to the top of the Group A standings, while Letran aims to break a 5-3 deadlock with Arellano University. Meanwhile, the JRU Heavy Bombers look to regain their footing in Group A as they take on the struggling Perpetual Altas, who are currently mired in a five-game skid. With the crossover round coming to a close, teams will return to their respective group stages to face bracket opponents once more. The top two teams at the end of this phase will secure a twice-to-beat advantage in the quarterfinals, the third seed will need to win twice to advance, and the bottom two squads will head to the play-in tournament.

Wemby targets title breakthrough as NBA tips off

Wemby targets title breakthrough as NBA tips off

LOS ANGELES — French phenomenon Victor Wembanyama, knocking on the door almost since his arrival in the NBA three years ago, is poised for the ultimate breakout season with the San Antonio Spurs. “He just changes everything,” superstar LeBron James said of the towering 22-year-old, who will be aiming to further break the mold with his ferocious defense and an extraordinarily versatile playing style for a player who stands 7-foot-4 (2.24 m). Wembanyama was unanimously voted Defensive Player of the Year last season. With spectacular averages of 25 points, 11.5 rebounds and 3.1 blocks he finished third in Most Valuable Player voting. With another year under his belt Wembanyama is widely tipped to contend for both awards — and lead the young, ultra-talented Spurs back to the Finals a year after they were agonizingly denied by the New York Knicks. “We’re very hopeful, very ambitious and ready,” Wembanyama said as training camp began. Rejoining Wembanyama for another title tilt are 21-year-old Stephon Castle and 20-year-old Dylan Harper. In the offseason they added another piece to the puzzle in 34-year-old veteran Tobias Harris, who along with experience adds size and strength in the paint. Harris was tabbed as the most underrated signing of the offseason in a survey of the league’s general managers. But the Spurs fortunes will ultimately rest with Wemby. “I think he has a ton of room to improve in all aspects,” says Spurs coach Mitch Johnson, who took the helm in May 2025 as the Spurs said goodbye to the iconic Gregg Popovich, who led the team to five titles. “One thing for him will just be continue to manipulate the game and dictate the game, not just by scoring but by making plays for his teammates forcing the defense to make a decision, and taking advantage of opportunities in front of him,” said Johnson, who wants to see his star “almost puppeteering the game as we see the best players in our game do and we’ve seen him do. “I think that’s an area for him to continue growing.” Steve Nash, the former two-time Most Valuable Player, says Wembanyama has the tools to earn MVP honors. “In my eyes, Wemby had a case for MVP last year because of the totality of how he affects the game,” Nash said as he discussed Wembanyama’s MVP prospects with James on the “Mind the Game” podcast. “I think the difference is that traditionally you look at who closed the game for your team and Wemby can close games, but he doesn’t, he’s not necessarily a closer,” Nash said. “Some nights, it’s not his thing.” Nevertheless, Warriors veteran Draymond Green didn’t hesitate to tip Wembanyama for MVP — and Defensive Player of the Year again. “With his impact defensively and offensively, the only thing that can stop him from MVP this year is injury... 1000% I think he takes home both of them this year,” Green said on his podcast. Having enjoyed a spectacular ascent in his first three seasons, Wembanyama seems more than happy to embrace the expectations.

Chwalinska fights back to win Wuhan Open

WUHAN, China — Maja Chwalinska pulled off an impressive comeback to defeat Britain’s Sonay Kartal, 2-6, 6-4, 6-2, and claim the first tour-level title of her career at the Wuhan Open on Sunday. The Polish 16th seed trailed by a set and a break before she turned things around to become just the fourth player to win her maiden tour-level title at a WTA 1000 event. She joins Naomi Osaka (2018 Indian Wells), Bianca Andreescu (2019 Indian Wells) and Victoria Mboko (2025 Montreal) in that exclusive club. The 25-year-old Chwalinska started the year ranked 146 in the world and provided one of the biggest surprises of the season when she reached the French Open final as a qualifier in June. “(This title) tastes very sweet. I feel like I still don’t realize that I won,” Chwalinska said in the post-match press conference. “But it feels special, because after French Open, it was obviously amazing, but then I had some tough moments. I feel like people also were very rough towards me. And it took a toll on me as well. “I’m just a human. But I kept working really hard and I’m just very grateful that my work paid off.” The talented lefty will now rise to a career-high No.11 in the world, making her top-20 debut when the new rankings are released on Monday. “I feel like my energy level was very low at the beginning, but also Sonay played amazing,” added Chwalinska. “Gradually I started to play much better and much more aggressive. Also, the depth on my shots improved. “I feel what I’m proud of is the fighting spirit that I had. I just wanted to fight for every single ball and hoped that things would click at some point.” Kartal, who was contesting her second tour event back from a six-month hiatus due to a spinal stress fracture, entered Wuhan ranked 170 in the world but will return to the top 50 after reaching the first WTA 1000 final of her career.
