With nearly half the league harboring legitimate College Football Playoff aspirations, the structural margin for error has completely evaporated heading into the summer.

Draft season is officially here, and the 2026 class is looking like a franchise-altering group. With a definitive "Big 4" leading the way and NIL money shaking up the middle of the board, the stakes have never been higher for rebuilding teams. We're diving into Sam Vecenie's full 30-pick mock to see who's rising and who is worth the risk in a volatile first round. Wait until you see the freshman on Slide 5 who went from unranked recruit to a top-five prospect.

The Athletic's 2026 NBA Mock Draft: Sam Vecenie’s Full 30-Pick 1st Round Predictions

The last couple days of the NBA playoffs have brought plenty of excitement as the San Antonio Spurs prevailed in the Western Conference Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder, 111-103, in Game 7 on Saturday.

TST Best Bets: June 1, 2026

The most anticipated series of these NBA Playoffs has lived up to the hype and then some. Through six games, these two teams are dead even. Even with San Antonio Spurs facing elimination in Game 6, it was clear this series was always going seven, as they led wire-to-wire in a 118-91 blowout. These two potential dynasties in the making have similar profiles: young, elite defensively and led by a player with the potential to end their career as one of the greatest players in the sport’s history. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is on the doorstep of joining Bill Russell, Michael Jordan and LeBron James as the only players to ever win back-to-back MVPs and NBA Championships in the same two seasons. However, his reign over the league may be cut short almost immediately by the prodigy that is Victor Wembanyama, who in the first playoff run of his career, is already making the case that he is the best player in the world. Wembanyama does not have the hardware or championships that Gilgeous-Alexander does, but the unanimous Defensive Player of the Year has been the best player in this series so far.

St. Louis pulled off the upset as a home underdog in Friday’s series opener 6-5 after left fielder Nelson Velazquez belted a three-run homer in the first inning. With new pitchers in the lineup tonight, the Cardinals enter as the slight favorite, looking to clinch the series over their division rival. Meanwhile, in the WNBA, we have a standalone matchup between the visiting Las Vegas Aces and the hosting Golden State Valkyries, as two of the most formidable teams in the Western Conference face off. The defending champion Aces have not necessarily had the most impressive start to its season, but after their late season turnaround in 2025, there’s little reason to believe they can’t flip that switch when necessary.

If Oba Femi wasn’t already looked at as a beast, and the future QB1 of the company, then he sure does now, even after the loss. The WWE made sure it took seven of one of the most devastating finishers ever to put him down. Some are already upset that Oba took a loss, but if this is going where it should, and it ends with Femi standing tall over Brock in a grudge match, indefinitely taking the place of the new Grim Reaper in the WWE, then I’m okay with Oba losing this one.

The defending champions are a game away from reaching back-to-back NBA Finals. In a pivotal Game 5 with the series tied 2-2, the Oklahoma City Thunder made a major statement with two starters out of the lineup in Jalen Williams and Ajay Mitchell, blanking the San Antonio Spurs in a 127-114 victory. San Antonio’s two wins in this series have been Victor Wembanyama’s two best games, but the unanimous Defensive Player of the Year had the worst playoff game of his young career on Tuesday, shooting 4-for-15 from the field while not having his typical defensive impact. On Thursday night, either the stage for the NBA Finals will be officially set between the Thunder and New York Knicks, or Wembanyama will add another chapter to his burgeoning legacy to become one game from reaching the finals in his first postseason run of his career.
