PHOENIX (AP) — Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal injured his right ankle during the first quarter of Friday night’s game against the New York Knicks and won’t return, according to the team.It’s another blow for the Suns’ All-Star trio of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Beal, which has played together for just one other game this season, and that was in Wednesday night’s loss to the Brooklyn Nets.The 30-year-old Beal took a 3-point shot in the first quarter, which he made, but he landed on the foot of New York’s Donte DiVincenzo, who was called for a Flagrant 1 because he didn’t allow Beal a space to land. Beal was on the ground for a few minutes, writhing in pain. He eventually got up to make his free throw, but then went to the locker room.The three-time All-Star was playing in just his sixth game this season. He has dealt with a sore back for much of the past two months. Durant and Booker have also missed time this season with various injurie...Dillon Brooks scores 26, keys rally in 2nd half as Rockets defeat Grizzlies 103-96

At the federal level, billions of dollars have been budgeted to fight climate change in the Infrastructure Act, the Inflation Reduction Act, and others with funding from the Departments of the Environment, Energy, and Labor among others. With billions of dollars available, why isn’t the money making it to environmental justice communities such as Grove Hall in Boston?One reason is a large portion of the state (53%) has been designated an environmental justice community or designated as EJ Group Blocks. It is easy for the funds to flow to municipalities with more resources and capacity. Towns with more resources can get even more resources and those without, go without. The second is that the current Massachusetts definition of an Environmental Justice (EJ) Community has nothing to do with the level of environmental damage or harm that has been inflicted upon certain communities. That’s right, the definition of an environmental justice community has nothing to do environmental harm ...Bernstein: Will third-party candidates hurt Biden or Trump?

With former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney’s comments that she’s considering an independent bid for president against Donald Trump, experts are beginning to game out how she and other third-party candidates could affect next year’s election.A political action committee backing independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s campaign announced that it’s planning to spend at least $10 million to get his name on that ballot in 10 states. And the quasi-party No Labels has threatened to recruit a big-name candidate, with retiring Republican Sen. Mitt Romney and retiring Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin getting plenty of buzz.Then you have independent candidate Cornel West and Green Party candidate Jill Stein, who also ran in 2012 and 2016.There’s still time for more to join the field, with filing deadlines a ways off. As long as President Joe Biden’s approval ratings remain below 40% and similarly unpopular Trump remains the Republican front-runner, the race will seem tempting to many.Significant third-party...Latest news
