MIAMI (AP) — Klay Thompson has signed his deal with the Miami Heat, who waited patiently for weeks to see if they would get the chance to add the sharpshooter to their reworked roster. Thompson — who is No. 4 on the NBA's all-time 3-pointers made list — cleared waivers Sunday ...
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Freedom 250 Grand Prix is largely about the visuals — the Capitol hovering behind Turn 1, the Washington Monument off in the distance. Now, IndyCar drivers can finally evaluate the actual track. "I didn't know if it was going to be fun or not to drive. It's a blast, super fun," series points leader Alex Palou said after a morning practice session Saturday. "Very bumpy, huge bumps heading into Turn 2 and Turn 6. Massive bumps that are going to spice things up." The 1.7-mile street course in downtown Washington was an unknown commodity, set up for the ...
ATLANTA (AP) — Mike D 5D, a new project from former Beastie Boy Michael Diamond, will release "Thank You" on Friday — the debut solo album from the MC and the first new music from the Beastie Boys' camp since the 2012 death of Adam "MCA" Yauch.

New tariffs are expected to raise prices for products in both countries. Each side is blaming the other for the collapse of negotiations in Washington late Friday. That's led the U.S. to impose 50% tariffs on $20 billion worth of Canadian goods and Canada setting Sept. 8 as the start of its retaliatory penalties. President Donald Trump's import taxes will hit about 5% of what Canada ships to the United States ...
RENO, Nevada (AP) — A wildfire that mushroomed over the weekend in the Sierra Nevada foothills spread perilously close to neighborhoods in Reno, Nevada, forcing authorities to urge more than 90,000 residents to leave their homes. The out-of-control fire has already burned some homes, but there's concern that winds could push the flames into newly developed and densely packed neighborhoods in Nevada's largest city outside of metro Las Vegas. Schools across Washoe County were closed Monday because of the evacuations and to keep roads clear for emergency crews. Nevada's governor ...
