    New England coach McDermott backs Connor and criticises Wane’s ‘unfair’ treatment

    Brian McDermott, the new England head coach, has insisted that Super League’s reigning Man of Steel, Jake Connor, is central to his plans for this year’s World Cup, before appearing to attack the treatment of the Leeds Rhinos half-back by his predecessor Shaun Wane.

    McDermott was unveiled on Thursday as England’s coach on a short-term deal for the tournament in Australia this autumn. The former Leeds and London coach is now working in the NRL as an assistant for Gold Coast Titans and saw off competition from Sam Burgess to be named as Wane’s successor.

    The buildup to last year’s Ashes, which proved to be Wane’s final series in charge, was overshadowed by his decision to omit Connor despite him being crowned Super League’s best player in 2025. Wane insisted that selection was “not difficult” and insisted he paid no attention to accolades like the Man of Steel, with Connor consistently overlooked to the bemusement of many.

    NRL 2026: Titans assistant lands England top job

    The Titans congratulate NRL assistant coach Brian McDermott on his appointment as England head coach ahead of the 2026 Rugby League World Cup.

    He has also won three premierships as a player and represented England / Great Britain in five Tests, becoming a highly respected figure in the international game.

    McDermott will take on the prestigious role while continuing his NRL duties after joining Josh Hannay’s coaching staff ahead of the 2026 season.

    The Athletic: Brian Scalabrine not surprised by Cooper Flagg's ascent: 'He's the same kid'

    "His ability to play through contact is the same as when he was 14," Scalabrine said of the Mavericks' 19-year-old rookie.

    Editor’s Note: Read more NBA coverage from The Athletic here. The views on this page do not necessarily reflect the views of the NBA or its teams. 

    DALLAS — Wanting to test his young pupil’s mettle, Matt MacKenzie phoned a friend in New England.

    MacKenzie, a basketball trainer from Maine, reached out to Brian Scalabrine, the ex-NBA player turned color commentator for the Boston Celtics whose organized pickup games in Beantown were notoriously competitive. Several current and future Division I players participated in it.

    Mavericks’ climb back to contention around Cooper Flagg might be shorter than you think

    Prohibited from answering questions directly about an Anthony Davis trade to the Wizards that was not yet official, Mavs coach Jason Kidd made it clear that a team building around Cooper Flagg can have a bright future. And in the very near future, too.

    Make no mistake, the best thing that Mavericks interim GM Mark Riccardi did in sending Davis to Washington in a multi-player deal before the league’s trade deadline was clear cap room. Get excited about the players at your own risk.

    Three are in the final year of their deals so their future here is as “expiring contracts,” not role players. Guard A.J. Johnson might be a nice addition to the rotation as Max Christie was in the last Davis trade that was not so popular in these parts. And the picks Dallas receives should best be viewed as five second-rounders, given that, along with three true second-round picks, Dallas is getting Oklahoma City’s first in June (likely between 28 and 30) and a Golden State pick that is top-20 protected in 2030.

    Cooper Flagg Continues To Silence Doubters

    Some people still doubt Flagg, but that’s getting more and more difficult.

    There are apparently some people who still think that Cooper Flagg is the product of hype, the latest Great White Hope, but the facts on the court show how lazy that sort of thinking is.

    Because Flagg is just killing it. These are some stats from the last three games:

    Over his last 10 games, Flagg is getting 24 ppg, 7.5 rebounds and 4 assists. He’s shooting 50% too.

    Lazy thinkers think it’s all media hype or entitlement, but Naji Marshall, who actually plays in the NBA and who is currently a Maverick, says he wants to play his entire career there because “I want to play with Cooper Flagg my whole motherf*****g career. That’s my dog, and he’s gonna create history. And to be part of that would be unbelievable.”
