A few prominent NFL franchises are in the picture as possible destinations, with the Chiefs emerging as the frontrunner to acquire the former Pro Bowl wideout. With Beckham Jr. clearing waivers to sign with any organization in free agency at the veteran’s minimum contract for the rest of the season, it makes this possible scenario more appealing to Kansas City. Chiefs could be on the verge of signing Odell Beckham Jr....

The game began with both sides looking to come to grips with the conditions on offer. And, though the pair failed to settle into any proper rhythm, there were a flurry of chances just near the 20-minute mark. However, it wasn’t until the 37th minute that the net was bulged when Jerry Mawihmingthanga capitalized on some slack defending to slot the ball into the back of the net. Six minutes later, Vinit Rai conjured a sensational strike from the edge of the box to double the hosts’ tally....

The Racers had tied the game on a deep 3-pointer with 3.5 seconds left at Old Dominion. The only problem was that 3.5 seconds was more than enough time for Trey Freeman to go to work. Here’s the view from inside the arena. Pretty awesome stuff for ODU fans. With the victory, Old Dominion advances to the tournament semifinals at Madison Square Garden, where it will meet Stanford. Murray State finishes the season 29-6....

Not in Hollywood they don’t. But two charming new independent films, both first features by female directors that premired at Sundance, show girl bonding as the messy, complex experience it really is. Nicole Holofcener’s Walking and Talking tells of two thirtyish friends who get thrown for a loop when one decides to get married.

Luis Angel Varela, 21, of Santa Rosa was pulled over by a police sergeant in the early hours on Sunday after he was caught doing “donuts” in his car, CBS News reported. A subsequent search of his car yielded a 9mm polymer ghost gun, capable of fully automatic fire, and with a high-capacity magazine capable of holding 30 rounds. Despite resembling a handgun, its automatic capabilities met the legal definition of a machine gun....

Whereas the Steam Deck itself has been a rather successful endeavor for Valve, the fact that the official dock is nowhere to be found has rubbed some users the wrong way, and they turned to third-party solutions, like JSAUX, instead. Valve didn’t mention that the docking station would be making an appearance at this year’s TGS, but the fact that it is present may suggest that the device’s release window isn’t too far out after all....

“NEVER SLAP THE FLOOR.” MORE: CBB’s best four-year stars | LSU star misses start because of academics During the Buckeyes’ 65-62 win over Nebraska, Tate made the mistake of trying to fire up his team on the road by slapping the floor on defense — a move made famous by Duke teams of the mid-1990s. This is why you never slap the floor, as explained by Tai Webster. There are many reasons why you should never slap the floor on defense....

Following a slow first quarter, the Ducks quickly gained offensive momentum with running back CJ Verdell. He scored two practically identical touchdowns in the second quarter, and allowed Oregon to strike the first blow. Verdell added another 77-yard touchdown in the third quarter, and totaled 161 yards on 20 rushes. Ohio State retaliated with a couple touchdown passes to wide reciever Jaxon Smith-Njigba, but quarterback C.J. Stroud’s struggles ultimately prevented the Buckeyes from taking the lead....

And yet it was the Buckeyes walking out of Madison with the win, erasing that stat from the Badgers’ history book and rewriting some of its own story in beating Wisconsin 59-58. PHOTOS: College basketball cheerleaders Neither side played exceptionally well, but it was Ohio State that got the stops when it needed to, holding the Badgers without a field goal in the final 6:48. The Buckeyes’ biggest plays came from senior Aaron Craft, who scored his only seven points of the game in the final four minutes, and his lockdown defense on Traevon Jackson on Wisconsin’s last possession in the final seconds forced the ball out of Jackson’s hands and over to Sam Dekker, whose off-balance jumper while being well defended was right on target but short....

It's Seguin's first game against the team that drafted him in 2010, developed and extended him in 2012 and traded him in 2013. You'll hear more about it over the next two days or so. What it boils down to, as told by general manager Peter Chiarelli in a lengthy interview with WEEI's D.J. Bean, is that the Bruins needed to clear space to re-sign Tuukka Rask and replace Nathan Horton, and Seguin's lack of physicality wasn't a match for Boston's system....

Following a regular season filled with ups and downs, the Thunder finished 6th, and OKC had the fortune to avoid early postseason matchups against both Houston and Golden State. Instead, OKC faced Portland in the first-round – a team that they had swept during the regular season. Nevertheless, despite everything seemingly falling into place, the Thunder once again suffered a first-round exit for the third year in a row. A 4-1 series defeat to Portland demonstrated that the current roster is not good enough to compete, and Sam Presti is likely to make changes this summer....

The Democratic representative of New York’s 14th congressional district said the reform had been given “almost no time” since its passage, speaking at an election event in The Bronx, The New York Post reported. New York state’s bail reforms enacted this year block judges from attaching financial bail conditions to minor crimes and nonviolent felonies. Passage of the bail reform was followed by a spate of anti-Semitic attacks that prompted calls for the changes to be scrapped, and the installation of CCTV cameras in neighborhoods with longstanding Jewish communities....
