NBA Lakers Sign Ukraine 7-Footer Alex Len To Join Luka Doncic, LeBron James
Ukrainian center Alex Len has signed a free agent deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, the NBA club announced on Tuesday, after an earlier trade for Mark Williams fell through. Len, a 31-year-old seven-footer (2.13m) in his 12th NBA campaign, joined the Lakers, his sixth NBA club, only three days after being released by Washington. The Lakers had swung a deal with the Charlotte Hornets for US seven-footer Williams at last week's NBA trade deadline, but the big man reportedly failed a physical and the trade was rescinded.

Bellingham strikes late for Real Madrid in 3-2 win at Man City in Champions League 1st leg playoff
MANCHESTER, England: Jude Bellingham struck in stoppage time to give Real Madrid a 3-2 victory in its Champions League playoff against Manchester City on Tuesday. Bellingham sealed a stunning comeback for holder Madrid in the first leg at the Etihad Stadium after City had led 2-1 late on. Former City academy player Brahim Diaz had leveled the game at 2-2 in the 86th minute before Bellingham’s late winner silenced the home crowd. City had looked like taking a lead into the second leg at the Bernabeu next week after two goals from Erling Haaland. His penalty in the 80th had given City the edge after Kylian Mbappe had canceled out the Norwegian’s first half goal after the break. Paris Saint-Germain took a big step toward the Champions League round of 16 by beating Brest 3-0 in a first-leg playoff match. Ousmane Dembélé scored twice and Vitinha converted a penalty to put the French champion in control. Having made hard work of the new-look league phase of the tournament, it would take a major upset in the second leg in Paris to deny PSG a place in the next round. The Qatar-backed PSG is one of the wealthiest clubs in the world, but was in danger of early elimination before securing the lifeline of a playoff by finishing 15th in the 36-team league. Perfect 10 Dembélé’s double saw him score for a 10th game in a row, with 18 goals during that streak. It was from his shot that led to PSG’s 21st-minute penalty after Pierre Lees-Melou handled in the area.
Dembele stars again as PSG beat Brest in Champions League play-off first leg
GUINGAMP, France: Ousmane Dembele kept up his remarkable form in front of goal with a double as Paris Saint-Germain took a big step toward qualifying for the last 16 of the Champions League with a 3-0 win over French rivals Brest in the first leg of their play-off tie on Tuesday. PSG were overwhelming favorites coming into this tie against opponents who had never taken part in European competition before this season, and there seems little prospect of Brest recovering from this loss in next week’s second leg. Vitinha opened the scoring for PSG at the Stade de Roudourou in Guingamp with a penalty just before the midway point in the first half, and Dembele swept in a second on the stroke of half-time before netting again on 66 minutes. The French international forward now has 23 goals for the season, including 18 in 11 appearances over the last two months. Indeed he has 10 goals in just the last four games, a run which includes a hat-trick against Brest in Ligue 1 only 10 days ago. He is irresistible just now, and Luis Enrique’s side are unbeatable at the moment against French opponents, against whom they have not lost since last May. “Ousmane is full of confidence just now. He was good in 2024 and he is even better in 2025,” said Luis Enrique. The teams will meet again in the return leg of this knockout phase play-off tie next Wednesday in Paris, with the winners advancing to a last-16 showdown with either Liverpool or Barcelona. Assuming they make it through, PSG will feel they are capable of beating either of those sides on current form, although Luis Enrique is taking nothing for granted. “There is no chance we will treat the second leg like a training game,” said the Spaniard.
