The Carolina Hurricanes had a full plate as they prepared for a tough game against a Philadelphia Flyers team with their backs against the wall and a chance to stamp their ticket to the Eastern Conference Finals. However, one player had something else in mind and needed an incredibly important position.

Shawn Walker, the Hurricanes’ second-pairing defenseman, was far from Philadelphia on the morning of Game 4. Instead, he was in the air on his way back to Raleigh.

His wife, Taylor, was expecting. And it so happened that their first child was about to arrive soon.

“She called me at 1:00 at night – I was still awake and she said her water had broken,” Walker told the media after the game. “So, I immediately called ‘Brownie’, and thankfully there was a 6:00 a.m. flight.”

‘Brownie’, or rather, Michael Brown, is the Hurricanes Manager of Team Services: the man behind the team’s travel and logistics. Walker arrived in time for his daughter’s birth, with the undercarriage touching down back in Philadelphia at 2:00 p.m. Hurricanes owner Tom Dundon chartered a private jet so he would not miss the game.

“It was like one of the easiest and hardest games I’ve ever played, if that makes any sense.” Walker said. “You know, you just live in the moment – ​​going without sleep, I ate my pregame meal in the hospital cafeteria.

“Yeah, it’s absolutely crazy. But, you just show up, and the people were amazing. Everyone, from Team Services, the owner, the whole organization really made it possible for me to be there and get back on time.”

In Game 4, Walker had the second-most minutes among Hurricane skaters, with 23:13 of ice time, and he was first for the Hurricanes in hits, with three. He also recorded two shots on net and one takeaway.

Of course, being able to wrap up the series sooner was a joy that he expressed his gratitude for as he looked forward to reuniting with his family.

“I didn’t want to go up to the boys and tell them we better win tonight,” he said, laughing. “I really appreciate everyone — and this is huge for everyone, but spending this time with my family is going to be really special.”

Congratulations to both Shawn and Taylor!

Stephanie Wacker is dealing with a real injury after Monday’s WWE Raw.

Brian Alvarez confirmed that Wecker’s shoulder problem during the backstage attack is legitimate, possibly consistent with the second-degree AC sprain that Michael Cole referenced on commentary after Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez attacked him.

Pérez rammed a tool box into Wecker’s shoulder during the segment, with Cole saying on air that Wecker would be “out for a while” as a result. It is unclear when and how the injury first occurred prior to angle airing. The attack was planned as a storyline development on Raw, but the real-world consequences of a legitimate second-degree AC sprain added a layer of uncertainty to WWE’s plans for Walker in the coming weeks.

Second degree AC sprains involve a partial tear of the acromioclavicular ligaments and recovery timelines are usually measured in weeks rather than days. This means that Wacker’s absence from ring competition could be extended in the near future, depending on how his body responds to treatment.

Wacker most recently competed at WrestleMania 42, where she lost the Women’s World Championship to Liv Morgan, a top match on the card. Prior to that loss, Wacker was one of WWE’s top female stars, holding the title and regularly appearing in top-of-the-card storylines.

Her post-WrestleMania plans were expected to put her in that position throughout the spring and summer schedule through a feud with Morgan for the top women’s title on Raw, making the injury’s timing difficult from a creative standpoint.

The segment that resulted in the injury involved Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Pérez targeting Wecker in a backstage attack, with Pérez using a tool box as a weapon to cause damage to the shoulder. Aside from Cole’s on-air comment that she would be out for some time, neither the full scope of the injury nor a specific timeline for her return has been publicly confirmed.

夏洛特黃蜂隊新秀康·克努佩爾週四度過了一個難忘的夜晚，他在頻譜中心以 127-106 擊敗菲尼克斯太陽隊，創造了單賽季三分球命中數新的球隊紀錄。

克努佩爾投進4個三分球，將他的三分球總數增加到261個，打破了黃蜂隊傳奇人物肯巴·沃克在2018-2019賽季投進260個三分球的紀錄。

在賽後發表會上，這位20歲的射手透露沃克 和他說話 在面對太陽隊之前。

「他在賽前告訴我，他說，『夥計，我們今晚就去買這個吧！』」克努佩爾分享道，在之前的兩場比賽中，他的遠距離投籃只有 9 投 1 中。

在對上菲尼克斯的比賽中，他14投7中，其中三分線外9投4中，得到20分、3個籃板和2次助攻。

他承認自己休賽期的表現並不好。但最終，他找到了自己的狀態，並覺得自己「屬於」黃蜂隊。

「我對我們一起打球的方式感覺很好，所以我想今年我有機會真正做出貢獻，也許我已經超越了我對自己的期望，」克努佩爾說。

這位杜克大學的第四順位新秀在三分球命中數方面領先全聯盟。緊隨其後的是洛杉磯湖人隊後衛盧卡·東契奇、隊友拉梅洛·鮑爾、丹佛金塊隊後衛賈馬爾·穆雷和亞特蘭大老鷹隊後衛尼克爾·亞歷山大·沃克。

上個月，克努佩爾擊敗薩克拉門托國王隊前鋒基岡·穆雷，創造了新秀三分球命中數聯盟紀錄。

他是夏洛特隊令人印象深刻的轉變的一個重要因素，球隊正在努力結束九年的季後賽荒。

被科比·懷特稱為“危險”的黃蜂隊在九場比賽中取得了第七場勝利，並將戰績提升至41勝36負。他們攀升至東部第八位。

康·克努佩爾在周四晚上夏洛特黃蜂隊對陣菲尼克斯太陽隊的比賽中表現出色，加入了肯巴·沃克的球隊歷史。

克努佩爾在 NBA 的新秀賽季繼續打出了令人難以置信的表現。他正在與庫柏弗拉格激烈競爭聯盟年度最佳新秀獎，幫助黃蜂隊重返季後賽。

在對陣太陽隊的第33分鐘比賽中，克努佩爾再次為夏洛特隊出場。他最終得到20分、3個籃板和2次助攻。他投籃14投7中，其中三分線外9投4中。

克努佩爾在新秀賽季投進了 257 個三分球。他距離沃克 2018-19 賽季的 260 個三分球命中數還差三個三分球，這是他本場比賽的第四個三分球。

Kon Knueppel，黃蜂隊如何對陣太陽隊

康·克努佩爾的新秀賽季仍然是一個永恆的賽季，在此過程中打破了黃蜂隊的一項紀錄。球隊對太陽隊的勝利是錦上添花。

在這場勝利中，夏洛特隊有六名球員得分達到兩位數，其中包括克努佩爾。邁爾斯·布里奇斯表現出色，得到25分、4個籃板、2次助攻和1次抄截。他總共16投10中，其中在市中心8投4中。接下來，科比·懷特得到19分和4個籃板，布蘭登·米勒得到17分和4個籃板，拉梅洛·鮑爾得到15分和11次助攻，格蘭特·威廉斯得到10分和7個籃板。

夏洛特本季戰績提升至41勝36負，在東部積分榜上排名第八。他們領先奧蘭多魔術隊和邁阿密熱火隊，落後於多倫多暴龍隊和費城76人隊。

黃蜂隊將留在主場期待下一場比賽。他們將在東部時間 4 月 3 日晚上 7 點迎戰印第安納步行者隊。

The Seattle Seahawks have a large vacancy at the starting running back spot. However, on Wednesday he met his potential replacement in Kenneth Walker III, who has one accomplishment on his resume that the reigning Super Bowl MVP does not: a trip to the Pro Bowl.

The 2025 NFL season was a magical year for the Seahawks. Sure, they were expected to be competitive, but few thought they would be good enough to reach the Super Bowl, let alone win it. However, that’s exactly what he did last month against the New England Patriots.

Yet, success also brings imitation as rivals seek to borrow something from Seattle’s winning method. When super MVP Kenneth Walker III received a three-year, $43 million deal from the Kansas City Chiefs in free agency, the Seahawks lost a notable portion of their winning streak.

While the running back wasn’t an elite player at his position, he has been a difference maker for Seattle since arriving as a second-round pick in 2022. Therefore, his exit leaves a notable hole in the backfield for the Seahawks.

Seattle Seahawks meet Najee Harris

The assumption by many is that they will want to address this issue internally or on Day 2 or 3 of the NFL Draft. However, a new report suggests they are in talks with a very good replacement option ahead of free agency. “Los Angeles Chargers free-agent RB Najee Harris visited with the Seattle Seahawks today,” ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.

Harris is a one-time Pro Bowler who has rushed for 1,000 or more yards in every season of his career except 2025. Unfortunately, his campaign ended early last year after suffering an Achilles tear in Week 3. It’s not surprising that injury is the main reason he remains in free agency even after April shut down.

If Harris can be close to the player he was for the first four years of his career, he brings in similar stats to Walker III, but should probably come in at a slightly more reasonable rate.

Jabari Walker had a career-high performance during the Philadelphia 76ers’ 106–102 victory over the struggling Utah Jazz. The 23-year-old bounced back with a double-double of 22 points and 10 rebounds, helping the 76ers stage a fourth-quarter comeback against now 18-44 Utah.

However, while the game proved to be huge for Walker, an unfortunate incident occurred before that as the 2022 draftee scratched a brand new car earlier.

“I actually had an unfortunate incident happen today. I just got a new car and I was driving it for like 30 minutes and I scratched it. And talk about being in the zone and you know, I just wanted to come to the game and it was an unfortunate incident for me. Mentally I was walking here like, ‘My brand new car that I just got, I scratched it,'” he revealed, according to a post by PHLY Sixers on X.

Jabari Walker says he bought a brand new car today… and scratched it within the first 30 minutes of buying it.

However, Walker starred for his team in the absence of several key stars, including Joel Embiid, VJ Edgecombe, Kelly Oubre Jr. and Paul George, who is still suspended.

“When I saw the first two 3s go in, I was like, ‘Okay. Okay. This is a whole new world. I got a chance to redeem myself’ so I forgot about what happened earlier today,” he said.
Walker’s night started explosively. During his first stint, he scored 15 points on all five of his shot attempts, including four three-pointers.

While he undoubtedly proved vital, it was once again Tyrese Maxey who led the way with 25 points on 8-of-22 shooting. Quentin Grimes also played a key role, especially late in the fourth quarter.

He finished with 16 points and knocked down two go-ahead free throws with less than 17 seconds remaining on the clock. However, this game will be extremely memorable for Walker for several reasons.

Not only did he return with a career-best score, but he did so on a day that didn’t start off on the best of terms.

夏洛特黄蜂队已经经历了很长一段时间的重建。但本赛季，球队内部出现了一些积极的势头。其中一部分是由来自阿拉巴马州的年轻前锋布兰登·米勒带头的。

米勒几乎可以在球场上的任何位置得分，再加上他的身高和运动能力，促使黄蜂队在 2023 年 NBA 选秀中以第二顺位选中了米勒。

周四晚上，他连续第 54 次罚球，创造了黄蜂队的历史。这超出了肯巴·沃克之前设定的纪录，他当时也在现场观看了这一过程。沃克正在为这位 23 岁的年轻人鼓掌。

当然还有米勒 错过了下一个镜头 来自慈善条纹。

连胜纪录可能会被打破，但米勒的崛起却没有。

本赛季，他场均贡献20.6分、4.7个篮板、3.3次助攻，罚球命中率达到职业生涯最高的89%。他在防守端也创造了个人最好成绩，场均 1.1 次抢断和 0.9 次盖帽。

不幸的是，对于米勒和黄蜂队来说，他们在周四对阵休斯顿火箭队的比赛中以 105-101 落败。

在这场失利中，米勒拿下17分，但在投篮命中率上表现不佳。他22投仅5中，其中三分线外12投1中。然而，他确实贡献了七次助攻和四个篮板。

作为一支球队，夏洛特队有 16 次失误，事实证明这代价高昂。火箭队凭借这些失误拿下了 23 分。凯文·杜兰特让时光倒流，20投14中得到35分，领先所有得分手。

尽管输掉了比赛，黄蜂队仍然占据了附加赛的最后一个席位。他们希望周五晚上主场对阵克利夫兰骑士队时重回正轨。

The Indiana Pacers came out of the 2026 NBA All-Star break and immediately suffered a loss to the Washington Wizards on Thursday night at Capital One Arena in Washington, DC.

Despite the 112–105 loss to the Wizards, Indiana had some positives to take from the contest, including the play of Jarre Walker. The former Houston Cougars star power forward paced Indiana against Washington with 19 points and 13 rebounds. While he made only 5 of 15 shots from the field, he made 8 of 10 from the free-throw line. Walker recorded seven assists and two steals in 30 minutes of action.

After the game, Walker received praise from Indiana head coach Rick Carlisle, who considered the player’s development “one of the triumphs of this season”, according to Scott Agnes of Fieldhouse Files.

Granted, the Pacers don’t have much to celebrate heading into the 2025-26 NBA season, seeing Walker improve on the court gives Carlisle and the team something to feel good about.

It’s also time for Walker to translate his potential into raw numbers, as he’s already in his third season in the league. In his first two seasons in the NBA, Walker, who was selected eighth by Indiana in the first round of the 2023 NBA draft, averaged only 5.4 points and 2.7 rebounds in 14.1 minutes per contest. He entered the Wizards game with season averages of 10.5 points and 4.5 rebounds in 54 games.

Still, there’s plenty of room for improvement for the 22-year-old Walker, including his shot efficiency. He made only 40.4 percent of his attempts and posted a 49.3 effective field goal percentage in the first half of the season.

連勝紀錄可能會被打破，但米勒的崛起卻沒有。

本季，他場均貢獻20.6分、4.7籃板、3.3助攻，罰球命中率達生涯最高的89%。他在防守端也創造了個人最佳成績，場均 1.1 次搶斷和 0.9 次蓋帽。

肯尼思·沃克三世 (Kenneth Walker III) 希望在 2 月 8 日帶領西雅圖海鷹隊奪得總冠軍戒指時創造超級碗歷史。

海鷹隊將在加利福尼亞州迎戰新英格蘭愛國者隊，一切都岌岌可危。

4

在經歷了一個令人印象深刻的賽季後，沃克在今年的超級碗比賽中衝球碼數是所有球員中最高的。

愛國者隊的特雷維揚·亨德森的總碼數緊隨其後，但在一場比賽中取得大量碼數的情況很少見。

這就是為什麼沒有人能夠接近超級碗歷史上這段悠久的歷史……

誰在超級碗比賽中衝球碼數最多？

超級碗歷史上沖球碼數最多的記錄已經 38 年沒有被打破。

華盛頓球星蒂米·史密斯 (Timmy Smith) 在 1988 年創下了 204 碼的衝球碼數，沒有任何球員能夠打破這一記錄。

史密斯在第 22 屆超級碗比賽中對陣丹佛野馬隊時取得了這一壯舉，他的球隊以 42-10 佔據主導地位獲勝。

這位跑衛在比賽中兩次達陣，並創造了衝球碼數新紀錄。

他的 204 碼超過了四年前馬庫斯·艾倫 (Marcus Allen) 的 191 碼。

週六，西雅圖海鷹隊不僅擊敗了舊金山 49 人隊，還擊敗了舊金山 49 人隊。他們發起了分區回合的拆除行動，改變了國聯的權力平衡。 41-6 的大勝的核心人物是肯尼思·沃克三世 (Kenneth Walker III)，他將李維斯體育場 (Levi's Stadium) 變成了他的個人遊樂場，並幾乎追平了季后賽歷史上最負盛名的紀錄之一。

沃克是海鷹隊進攻的引擎，看起來勢不可擋，以三次沖球達陣結束了這一天。 通過三次擊球，沃克進入了精英領域，追平了薩奎恩·巴克利和賈倫·赫茨等人，成為現代季后賽單場比賽中最快得分的人。

那是三個！

肯尼思·沃克在這場比賽中為海鷹隊完成了 3 次達陣 🔥

一時間，沃克似乎真的有可能追平瑞奇·沃特斯(Ricky Watters)保持的“無敵”紀錄。 具有諷刺意味的是，1994 年，當時效力於 49 人隊的沃特斯在對陣紐約巨人隊的比賽中以 5 次沖球達陣創造了季后賽歷史記錄。

儘管沃克距離歷史峰值還差兩分，但他的表現同樣具有傳奇色彩。他不斷地突破舊金山的防守，而舊金山的防守對他的橫向速度或在紅區完成突破的能力沒有答案。

除了分數之外，數字還講述了完整的路由故事。西雅圖的進攻線欺負49人隊的鋒線，讓沃克可以隨意尋找球路。不過，這不僅僅是一款跑步遊戲。海鷹隊的防守窒息了布洛克·珀迪和舊金山隊的進攻，確保沃克每次到達達陣區時，比賽都感覺更加遙不可及。

這場胜利也算是西雅圖隊的一場“收據”比賽。在經歷了一周的批評（尤其是來自特里·布拉德肖）之後，海鷹隊證明了他們屬于冠軍爭奪者。沃克在這樣的水平上打球，西雅圖隊不僅僅是季后賽的參與者；而且是季后賽的參與者。他們是奪取一切的合理威脅。

由於四分衛薩姆·達諾德正因斜傷參加比賽，因此有效的跑動比賽對於西雅圖海鷹隊的超級碗希望至關重要。肯尼思·沃克三世 (Kenneth Walker III) 明白 NFL 季后賽期間人們對他的期望，他在周六晚 NFC 分區輪對陣舊金山 49 人隊的比賽第二節末發揮了重要作用。

這位四年級持球球員出色地內切，強行沖入達陣區，完成 7 碼達陣，在上半場還剩 31 秒時，西雅圖隊以 24-6 領先。頭號种子隊已經受到一流防守和歡呼雀躍的主場球迷的鼓舞，他們擁有完整的動力，部分歸功於沃克的衝刺得分。

風格十足地結束上半場！

西雅图海鹰队的后场在第 14 周主场对阵卡罗莱纳黑豹队时可能会明显变瘦。 跑卫 Kenneth Walker III 和 DeeJay Dallas 都缺席了西雅图周三的训练，这对于他们能否参加即将到来的周末比赛来说并不是一个好兆头。

与此同时，跑卫 Travis Homer 能够练习，尽管方式有限。 刚刚出现在球场上是荷马有机会适应黑豹队的好兆头。

通过 ESPN 的布雷迪亨德森：

海鹰队 RBs Ken Walker III 和 DeeJay Dallas 今天没有训练。 S Ryan Neal 也没有。 皮特卡罗尔说他们今天都会坐下来休息他们在公羊队比赛中受伤，他们本周不确定。 RB 特拉维斯荷马是有限的，这是他可用的一个好兆头。

沃克在第 13 周对阵洛杉矶公羊队的比赛中上场，但脚踝受伤使他无法参加余下的比赛。 随后达拉斯接管了对阵公羊队的大部分跑卫任务，但他也在同一场比赛中脚踝受伤。 由于疾病和膝伤，荷马无法参加与洛杉矶队的比赛，海鹰队仍然以 27-24 获胜。

本赛季到目前为止，海鹰队更像是一支传球队，而不是冲刺队，但他们仍然从跑卫那里得到了充足的帮助，尤其是来自新秀沃克的帮助。 无论谁在卡罗莱纳州海鹰队的比赛中担任主要跑卫角色，都可能会在比赛日大放异彩，因为黑豹队在 NFL 中每场比赛允许的冲球码数仅排在第 25 位。
