(AP) \u2014 Rudy Gobert (goh-BEHR\u2019) became the first NBA player to publicly test positive for the coronavirus, beginning a wave of sports disruptions in March. He had a productive performance in the NBA\u2019s return to action, posting a double-double as the Utah Jazz reopened with a 106-104 triumph over the New Orleans Pelicans.<\/p>\n Gobert sank two free throws with 6.9 seconds left to cap a 14-point, 12-rebound and three-block performance. He helped the Jazz erase a 16-point performance.<\/p>\n Jordan Clarkson scored 23 points for Utah, which also received 20 points apiece from Donovan Mitchell and Mike Conley.<\/p>\n Pelicans rookie Zion Williamson scored 13 points in just over 15 minutes, highlighted by a couple alley-oop dunks. The first player taken in last year\u2019s draft missed nearly two weeks of practice after leaving the team for a family medical matter on July 16.<\/p>\n New Orleans had a chance to avoid the loss until Brandon Ingram\u2019s 3-point attempt rimmed out as time expired, a bitter end to his 23-point night.<\/p>\n The NBA\u2019s marquee matchup of the night had the Lakers coming back from an 11-point, third-quarter deficit to beat the Clippers, 103-101. Anthony Davis scored 34 points and Lebron James had the go-ahead basket with 12.8 seconds left. James had 16 points, 11 rebounds and seven assists to help the Lakers move 6 1\/2 games ahead of the Clippers in the West with seven games remaining.<\/p>\n Paul George had 30 points and Kawhi Leonard scored 28 for the Clippers.<\/p>\n NBA-NEWS<\/p>\n Knicks bring Tom Thibodeau back to New York as new coach<\/p>\n UNDATED (AP) \u2014 Tom Thibodeau (THIH\u2019-buh-doh) is back in New York as the Knicks\u2019 new coach.<\/p>\n The 62-year-old Thibodeau is 352-246 in eight seasons coaching Chicago and Minnesota. He was the Coach of the Year in 2011 in his first season with the Bulls.

The right-hander has fanned 27 in his first two games this year, matching the major league mark set by Karl Spooner for the Brooklyn Dodgers in September 1954.<\/p>\n Francisco Lindor\u2019s (lihn-DOHRZ\u2019) second homer of the season accounted for the scoring.<\/p>\n Also on the MLB slate:<\/p>\n \u2014 The Yankees coughed up an early 5-0 lead before Aaron Judge slammed a three-run homer in the ninth inning to lift New York past the Orioles, 8-6. Luke Voit launched a grand slam in the Yanks\u2019 five-run first, but the Orioles stormed back to take the lead on two-run homers by Hanser Alberto, Rio Riuz and Pedro Severino.<\/p>\n \u2014 Home runs by A.J. Pollock, Corey Seager and Max Muncy powered the Dodgers to their third win in a row, 6-3 over the Diamondbacks. Ross Stripling won his second game in two starts, pitching 5 1\/3 innings while giving up three runs.<\/p>\n \u2014 The Padres blew a 6-1 lead before erupting for six runs in the 10th inning to knock off the Giants, 12-7. Tommy Pham was 3-for-5 with two RBIs, including the tiebreaking single in the extra frame.<\/p>\n \u2014 Kurt Suzuki lined a go-ahead, two-run double and Michael A. Taylor smacked a two-run homer as the Nationals downed the Blue Jays, 6-4. Starlin Castro was a sparkplug to the Nats\u2019 13-hit attack, going 4-for-5 and scoring twice.<\/p>\n \u2014 Max Fried (freed) retired his first 14 batters and combined with three relievers on a four-hitter as the Braves beat the Rays, 2-1. Dansby Swanson had a run-scoring single in Atlanta\u2019s two-run second inning.<\/p>\n \u2014 Christian V\u00e1zquez homered twice off Steven Matz and Mart\u00edn (mahr-TEEN\u2019) P\u00e9rez gave Boston\u2019s patchwork rotation a much-needed lift as the pair led a 4-2 victory over the Mets. P\u00e9rez overcame four walks and some shaky defense behind him, allowing only two hits while striking out five in 5 2\/3 innings for his first win with the Red Sox.<\/p>\n \u2014 Jos\u00e9 Marmolejos (mahr-moh-LEH\u2019-hohs) belted his first big league home run with a three-run shot in the first inning of the Mariners 8-5 victory against the Angels. Shed Long Jr. also went deep and Marco Gonzales was reached for two unearned runs and six hits in 6 1\/3 innings.<\/p>\n \u2014 Bubba Starling poked a two-run double that gave the Royals a 5-2 lead in a 5-3 win at Detroit. The Tigers lost despite Miguel Cabrera\u2019s first two-homer game in four years.<\/p>\n \u2014 Rain caused the postponement of the Cubs-Reds game at Cincinnati. No makeup date was set in this virus-shortened season, although the Cubs are scheduled to return to Cincinnati for a three-game series Aug. 28-30.<\/p>\n MLB-NEWS<\/p>\n Phils-Jays weekend tilt called off<\/p>\n UNDATED (AP) \u2014 Major League Baseball says this weekend\u2019s three-game series between the Philadelphia Phillies and visiting Toronto Blue Jays has been postponed. The move is a precaution following a recent COVID-19 outbreak in the visiting clubhouse at Citizens Bank Park.<\/p>\n Seventeen Miami Marlins players have tested positive since opening a three-game series in Philadelphia last weekend. The Phillies haven\u2019t played since losing to the Marlins last Sunday.<\/p>\n The Phillies said there were no positive results among players from Wednesday\u2019s testing of their team. But there were two positives: One from a a member of the coaching staff and one from a member of the home clubhouse staff.<\/p>\n In other MLB news:<\/p>\n \u2014 Doubleheaders will now become a pair of seven-inning games in baseball\u2019s latest radical rule change during a season reshaped by the coronavirus pandemic. A person familiar with the plan tells The Associated Press that Major League Baseball and the players\u2019 union reached agreement on the new twinbills. MLB had already added designated hitters to National League games this year and added an automatic runner at second base to start all half-innings in extras.<\/p>\n \u2014 Angels outfielder Mike Trout was placed on the paternity list before Thursday\u2019s game against the Mariners. The reigning AL Most Valuable Player and his wife are expecting their first child, which was due Monday. Trout initially expressed reservations about playing the season due to the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n \u2014 Home plate umpire Joe West missed two innings of Thursday\u2019s Nationals-Blue Jays game after getting bloodied when he was hit in the head by leadoff hitter Bo Bichette\u2019s flying bat in the top of the first. The 67-year-old West is the senior umpire in Major League Baseball. He was struck near his left ear when Bichette lost hold of his bat while missing the first pitch thrown by Washington\u2019s Erick Fedde (FEH\u2019-dee). West returned in the middle of the third inning and began working at third base.<\/p>\n \u2014 Big league hitters have opened this 60-game sprint by stumbling out of the blocks. The league-wide batting average is .229, down from .252 last season. The number is stunning, considering the National League has adopted the designated hitter for this season. The all-time low for batting average is .237, set in 1968, \u201cthe year of the pitcher.\u201d<\/p>\n \u2014 Mike Foltynewicz (fohl-tih-NAY\u2019-vihch) is getting another chance with the Braves. Foltynewicz has cleared waivers and was outrighted to the team\u2019s alternate training site.

They hope he will be the backup to Sam Darnold.<\/p>\n \u2014 The list of players placed on the NFL\u2019s reserve\/COVID-19 list now includes Browns punter Jamie Gillan, Vikings linebacker Anthony Barr, Raiders running back Devontae Booker and 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. Meanwhile, rookie running back Malcolm Perry is among several Dolphins players who have donated convalescent plasma after recovering from COVID-19.<\/p>\n \u2014 The NFL\u2019s chief medical officer says it\u2019s not surprising there have been positive tests for COVID-19 among players reporting to training camp. Dr. Allen Sills notes that the disease is cutting across football just as it has through societies around the world. Sills says the league wanted to examine the results of recent COVID-19 tests before releasing the number of positives.<\/p>\n \u2014 The Carolina Panthers have decided to keep Joey Slye as their kicker and release veteran Graham Gano (guh-NOH\u2019), who missed all of last season with a knee injury. Gano took over as the team\u2019s kicker in 2012 and spent seven seasons handling field goals and kickoffs for the Panthers.<\/p>\n \u2014 Titans general manager Jon Robinson says he has been in touch with Vic Beasley and that the linebacker knows his absence from training camp is unexcused.

They include a former football player who claims he told legendary coach Bo Schembechler (SHEHM\u2019-behk-lur) about the abuse in 1982. It\u2019s the first time that a victim has said Schembechler, who died in 2006, was aware of allegations against the late Dr. Robert Anderson. Anderson worked at Michigan, especially with athletes, from the mid-1960s through 2003. The university believes Anderson assaulted male athletes during routine physicals and injury exams.<\/p>\n VIRUS OUTBREAK-SPORTS<\/p>\n NCAA extends size of football sideline area<\/p>\n UNDATED (AP) \u2014 The NCAA playing rules oversight committee has announced alterations in football and other sports to accommodate for COVID-19 concerns this coming season.<\/p>\n The sideline area college football teams use to congregate will be extended by 20 yards.<\/p>\n Currently, as many as four team captains can participate in the coin toss.

Along with other government health experts, Fauci will testify Friday before a special House panel investigating the pandemic.

In a televise speech Friday marking the first day of Eid al-Adha, Khamenei said President Donald Trump would benefit from talks, saying Trump wants to \u201cuse negotiations with us for propaganda like negotiations with North Korea.\u201d Khamenei was referring to talks between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong un.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n HONG KONG (AP) \u2014 Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam says the government will postpone highly anticipated legislative elections by one year, citing a worsening coronavirus outbreak in the semi-autonomous Chinese city. The Hong Kong government is invoking an emergency ordinance in delaying the elections. Lam says Hong Kong’s government has the support of the Chinese government in making the decision. Hong Kong has had a surge in coronavirus infections since the beginning of July. The postponement is a setback for the opposition, which was hoping to capitalize on disenchantment with the current pro-Beijing majority to make gains. Pro-democracy lawmakers have accused the government of using the outbreak as an excuse to delay the elections.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n LONDON (AP) \u2014 Twitter says the hackers responsible for a recent high-profile breach used the phone to fool the social media company\u2019s employees into giving them access.
