VALDEZ “VJ” Edgecombe has already shown he belongs in the NBA. His second season will be about showing just how much more he can become. The Bahamian guard enters the 2026-27 season

storylines surrounding the Sixers. The third overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft earned a starting spot immediately as a rookie and finished third in Rookie of the Year voting after averaging 16.0 points, 5.6 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.4 steals in 75 regular season games. He also shot 35.4 percent from three-point range, an

improvement from his college numbers at Baylor. The numbers were impressive for a 20-year-old playing major minutes on a playoff team, but Edgecombe’s second season will require adjustments. With James, Brown, Maxey and Embiid expected to command a significant amount of the Sixers -See Page E2

Lesson learned for Sydney despite early exit in China

Sailor Sienna books ticket to national championships in US

By JONATHAN BURROWS Tribune Sports Reporter jburrows@tribunemedia.net SYDNEY Clarke’s first week at the W15 Maanshan Open in China ended earlier than she wanted, but the Bahamian tennis player left the tournament with another valuable lesson as she continues her push toward the WTA rankings. Clarke, 24, was eliminated in the second round of qualifying at the tournament in Maanshan after failing to advance into the singles main draw. She also did not get into the doubles draw, bringing her first week in China to an early close. Despite the result, Clarke said there were several positives from her matches, particularly in how she handled difficult situations that had affected her in previous tournaments. “Week one of the tournament went well. Unfortunately, I was ousted in the second round of qualifying, but

By JONATHAN BURROWS Tribune Sports Reporter jburrows@tribunemedia.net SIENNA Jones has booked her ticket to a national championship after the young Bahamian sailor battled her way onto the podium at the 2026 Midwest Interscholastic Sailing Association (MISSA) Single-Handed Championship. Jones, a member of the Culver Academies Class of 2028, placed second in the girls' International Laser Class Association (ILCA) 6 division at the championship in Belmont, Chicago, Illinois, earning a berth in the 2026–2027 Interscholastic Sailing Association (ISSA) Single-Handed Championship, also known as the Cressy Trophy. The national championship is set for October 31–November 1, 2026, at the American Yacht Club in Rye, New York, where Jones will represent Culver Academies. Jones finished the MISSA championship with a net score of 14 points. Ella Bowers of Minnetonka High School in Minnesota won the division with 11 points, while Cate Baldwin of Saint Ignatius College Prep in Chicago was third with 16. The second-place finish came after Jones put considerable work into her preparation, particularly in boat handling, speed and race strategy. “It was exciting,” Jones said. “I put a great deal of effort into training before the competition, working on my boat-handling skills, speed, and race strategy. To see this work pay off in competition against the best female sailors in the region was validating and gave me confidence moving forward to nationals.” Jones, 16, has been building her sailing résumé for several years. She started sailing in the Optimist class at nine years old through the Lyford Cay International School Sailing Program before moving into the ILCA classes. In 2024, she claimed top honors at the Bahamas Junior ILCA 4 National Championship, Sir Durward Knowles National Junior Championship in the ILCA 6 class, KPMG Youth Winter Championship and Midwinter East Championship. Jones also finished fifth in the ILCA 4 division at the 2024 North American Championship, part of the North American Grand Prix. Her ability to adjust to changing conditions played a major role in her latest result. “On the first day of the regatta, the conditions were shifty, and it took a great deal of observation to develop a winning strategy,” Jones said. “I had to be forward-thinking, so that I could place myself in the right position to take advantage of the shifts in the wind.” Jones was one of just two sailors from the 18-person field to qualify for the Cressy Trophy. She is also among 12 female sailors who earned a place in the national championship. The event brings together some of the top high school single-handed sailors in the United States, with competitors tested on their tactical decision-making and boat-handling skills. Jones said she expects the competition in New York to be demanding but sees the opportunity as another chance to improve. “I expect the regatta to be very competitive, especially with it being the top 12 female sailors in the United States,” Jones said. “I am training very hard for the event, and I will learn a lot from racing with such strong athletes. This will make me a better sailor.” With a national championship now ahead, Jones will have another opportunity to compete against some of the best young sailors in the country while representing both Culver Academies and The Bahamas. “I hope to represent both Culver Academies and The Bahamas well,” she said.

facing a significantly different situation in Philadelphia after the 76ers added four-time NBA champion LeBron James and former NBA Finals MVP Jaylen Brown to a roster that already includes Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid. With training camp set to begin later this month, Edgecombe’s role will be one of the more intriguing

VJ Edgecombe poised for breakout season with 76ers amidst star-studded roster changes Sixers - From Page E1 offensive attention, Edgecombe is unlikely to have the same number of opportunities to create his own offense. That does not necessarily mean his importance will decrease. Instead, his ability to defend multiple positions, run the floor, rebound from the guard position, attack closeouts and knock down open perimeter shots could become even more important. The Athletic’s NBA analyst Tony Jones identified Edgecombe as a major piece of Philadelphia’s future during the offseason, writing that “a lot of eggs are clearly in the VJ Edgecombe basket” and calling him the player on the roster with the highest ceiling and Philadelphia’s best hope for making a significant leap next season. That leap may begin with his three-point shooting. Edgecombe made 38.3 percent of his catch-and-shoot threes last season on 3.5 attempts per game, while shooting 31.4 percent on pull-up threes on two attempts per game. Those catch-and-shoot opportunities should become increasingly important with James and Brown creating attention around him. The difference next season could be how consistently Edgecombe punishes defenses for helping off him. Opponents may decide to give him space and load up against Philadelphia’s stars. If that happens, Edgecombe has to make teams pay from the perimeter. He showed he was capable of doing that as a rookie, including a memorable 34 point performance against Boston on opening night in which he connected on five three-pointers. He also produced a 30 point, 10 rebound performance against the Celtics during the playoffs, becoming the first rookie since Tim Duncan in 1998 to record at least 30 points and 10 rebounds in a playoff game. The challenge was consistency. Edgecombe struggled from beyond the arc late in the season and into the playoffs. He shot 29 percent from three over his final 18 games, including a 0-for-6 performance from deep in Philadelphia’s Game 4 loss to the New York Knicks. Edgecombe acknowledged after the season that the playoffs presented a different level of pressure and defensive intensity. “There’s been a lot of ups and downs through these playoffs,” Edgecombe said during his exit interview. “Coming into next year, a team won’t ever leave me open.” He also made it clear that his focus would not simply be on increasing his scoring numbers. “I’m going to work and work and work,” Edgecombe said. “Whatever I’ve got to do to make life easier for (Tyrese Maxey) and the rest of my teammates. Take some of the pressure and some of the load offensively off of them.” That mindset could prove important on a Sixers team where Edgecombe will have to find ways to contribute without always being a primary offensive option. Edgecombe has already said he is comfortable with whatever role comes with the revamped roster. “I just want to win,” he said in August. “I’m going to still be aggressive, still be myself. If that comes with less shots or more shots, who knows.” He also welcomed the possibility of defenses choosing to leave him open. “It’s fine if they don’t respect me, I’ll just get a bunch of open shots,” Edgecombe said. That confidence will be tested throughout the season. Edgecombe will have to become more efficient with his opportunities, particularly when defenses close out aggressively. He will also have to continue developing his ability to finish at the rim, operate in the mid-range, make quick reads as a passer and defend without putting himself in foul trouble. His defensive responsibility could also increase. The addition of James and Brown gives Philadelphia more established offensive options, which could allow Edgecombe to spend more energy creating havoc defensively and attacking in transition rather than carrying the burden of creating shots every possession. Philadelphia’s revamped roster could also give Edgecombe something he did not have as much of during his rookie season: time to learn. He will be surrounded by veterans with extensive playoff experience while playing alongside James, a player Edgecombe has openly described as his favorite player growing up. The Sixers have already indicated that Edgecombe remains an important part of their plans despite the additions around him. The NBA’s official Sixers profile lists his rookie averages at 16.0 points, 5.6 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game and notes that he earned NBA All Rookie Team honors. The question now is not whether Edgecombe can produce. It is how much more efficient, reliable and versatile he can become while playing alongside Philadelphia’s established stars. If the three-point shot becomes more dependable, Edgecombe could force defenses to respect every member of Philadelphia’s starting lineup. For the Bimini native, Year 2 is less about proving he belongs and more about proving he can become an essential part of Philadelphia’s plans.

A stunning early QB injury wave leaves up to 6 teams already turning to backups By JOSH DUBOW, AP Pro Football Writer THE NFL hasn't seen an early-season injury epidemic at quarterback quite like this in a long time. With Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels and Jaxson Dart all getting injured in Week 2, there's a good chance six teams will have been forced to go with a backup quarterback as the starter because of injuries by the time the games this week are finished. This will be the first time since at least 2000 that has happened within the first three games of a season. There have been four other seasons in that time when at least six teams used multiple starting quarterbacks within the first three games, according to Sportradar, including a record-tying seven in both 2019 and 2010. There were also six in both 2001 and 2015, but the changes in all four of those seasons also included benchings and rookies getting elevated. The spate of quarterback injuries started when Super Bowl winner Sam Darnold injured his hip on the first drive of the season for the Seattle Seahawks on Sept. 9. Drew Lock replaced him and has helped Seattle get off to a 2-0 start. Darnold was set to practice Wednesday but might not return to start this week. One day later, Tua Tagovailoa left practice for Atlanta with an oblique injury, forcing the Falcons to turn to Cooper Rush as their starter for the first two games. Michael Penix, coming back from a knee injury last season, is set to start Thursday night against Green Bay. Minnesota's Kyler Murray then got a concussion in the first quarter of the opener for the Vikings, opening the door for Carson Wentz to come in and finish that game and start Week 2. Murray will be back as the starter this week. The issue only got worse this past week with Williams injuring his hamstring late in Chicago's loss to the Vikings, Daniels going down with a

serious left elbow injury for Washington against Dallas, and Dart injuring his knee Monday night when the Giants lost to the Los Angeles Rams. Daniels has already been ruled out this week, with Marcus Mariota set to start for the Commanders. Dart is expected to have season-ending surgery on his left knee, according to a person with knowledge of the details of the injury. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Wednesday because the team had not announced Dart's status. That would lead to Jameis Winston starting this week. Williams won't practice for the Bears this week but hasn't been ruled out for Monday night against Philadelphia. Backup QB Tyson Bagent went into the concussion protocol, forcing third-stringer Case Keenum to practice with the first team for Chicago on Wednesday. Keenum hasn't played in the regular season since 2023, but no decision has been made on who will start this week. All the injuries have been in the NFC, making this the first time since the merger in 1970 that six teams in the same conference used multiple starting quarterbacks for any reason within the first three games of a season. Despite the early quarterback carousel, one thing has been missing. No drafted rookie has taken a snap at QB all year, with Atlanta's undrafted Jack Strand the only rookie to see the field so far. This is just the fourth time in the common draft era starting in 1967 that no drafted rookie quarterback saw the field during the first two games. It also happened in 2007, 2000 and 1991. Red zone forbidden territory for the Falcons It's been a rough start for one team that hasn't had its No. 1 quarterback. The Atlanta Falcons are still searching for their first red-zone trip of the season after failing to get inside the

20-yard line in losses to Pittsburgh and Carolina the first two weeks. The Falcons' only touchdown came on a 23-yard pass from Cooper Rush to Bijan Robinson in Week 1 against the Steelers. No other drive has crossed the 20, marking the first time since the St. Louis Rams in 2008 that a team had no red-zone trips over the first two games of a season. The Rams finally made it to the red zone in the second quarter of Week 3. According to ESPN, two other teams since 1978 also failed to reach the red zone in the first two games: Detroit in 1997 and New England in 1992. The Lions weren't inept, as they scored six touchdowns in the first two games that season, with two coming on defence and four on big plays of at least 20 yards. The Falcons have struggled to move the ball at all, especially through the air. Atlanta's quarterbacks have combined for a 38.2 passer rating, third-worst through two games in the past 20 seasons and worse than the 39.6 if the QBs simply spiked the ball every play. Bills and Lions join rare 30-30 club through two weeks Two teams that haven't had trouble scoring — or success stopping others from doing it — are the Buffalo Bills and Detroit Lions. Buffalo opened its new stadium last Thursday night with a 41-31 win over Detroit, scoring the third-most points since the merger for a team in its first game in a new stadium. Only the 1987 Miami Dolphins with 42 points in a replacement-player game at Joe Robbie Stadium and the 1971 Dallas Cowboys with 44 at Texas Stadium scored more. The Bills and Lions had both won high-scoring games in Week 1, with Buffalo beating Houston 36-31 and Detroit beating New Orleans 31-30 in overtime. Only four other teams had opened the season with back-to-back games both scoring and

allowing at least 30 points, with the Bills also doing it in 1991 and 2002, the Rams in 2000 and New England in 1994. The 62 points allowed by the Bills are the fourth-most permitted by a team that won its first two games, with the 2000 Rams having the most with 70. Josh Allen has led the way on offence for Buffalo with back-to-back games with at least two touchdown passes and two TD runs. He has now done that 10 times in his career — including twice back-to-back after doing that for the first time in Weeks 14-15 of the 2024 season. Hall of Famer Steve Young is second all-time with four of those games. Allen is the third player in the Super Bowl era with at least nine total touchdowns rushing and passing and no turnovers in the first two games of a season. Patrick Mahomes did it on the way to winning MVP honours in 2018, and Peyton Manning did it in his 2013 MVP season. Raiders and Chargers change roles The Las Vegas Raiders were the NFL's worst team a year ago with a 3-14 record that gave them the No. 1 overall draft pick. The Los Angeles Chargers were a playoff team for a second straight season under coach Jim Harbaugh. It's been a role reversal so far this season after the Raiders beat the Chargers 26-14 in Week 2 to improve to 2-0 and hand Los Angeles a second straight loss. Las Vegas is just the fourth team in the common draft era starting in 1967 to open a season with back-to-back wins after using its own pick at No. 1 overall earlier that year. Houston did it in 2014 after drafting Jadeveon Clowney first overall, Kansas City did it in 2013 with Eric Fisher and Detroit in 1980 with Billy Sims. All three of those teams ended the season with winning records but the Chiefs were the only one to make the postseason.

Lesson learned for Sydney despite early exit in China Tennis - From Page E1 there was a lot of positives to take away from my match,” Clarke said. “I’m very glad to see and very hopeful to see how I build on that momentum.” Clarke opened qualifying with a strong performance, saying she started with plenty of energy and remained locked in from the beginning. Her second match took longer to settle into, but once she found her rhythm, she was able to turn the match around and put herself in position to compete. “The second match, it took me a bit to get into a groove, but once I did find that groove, things turned around for me,” she said. Clarke identified the key moments of the match as the deciding factor, particularly points where she needed to execute with greater consistency and make the right decisions. “It mostly came down to a matter of making an extra ball, placement of my shots and just being able to come up with good shot selection at the right moments,” Clarke said. Those moments included deuce points and opportunities to close out games when she held leads. Clarke acknowledged that she sometimes became less decisive after creating an

advantage, moving away from the approach that had helped her establish the lead in the first place. “Sometimes when I would have the lead, I would not be as decisive as I was or stop doing the things that I was doing to get there,” she said. That recognition has become part of Clarke’s development as she gains more experience at the professional level. Rather than viewing the early exit as a setback, she believes repeated exposure to these situations will allow her to respond better when similar circumstances arise. “I’m still proud of what I’m doing and it’s all a matter of time,” Clarke said. “Putting myself out there and continuing to grow and play these tournaments only helps me to get better.” One of the clearest examples came during her opening match. Clarke’s opponent took a medical timeout at a critical stage of the contest while Clarke was leading 5-2. She said the situation could have disrupted her concentration, particularly because she had previously experienced a similar situation that resulted in her losing momentum and eventually the match. This time, Clarke responded differently. “I made sure to stay focused and kept my mind going,” she

said. “I found a way to tell myself, ‘Hey, I’ve been in this situation before. I know what to do.’” Instead of allowing the stoppage to affect her, Clarke focused on remaining active and maintaining her energy. “I just need to continue to be strong, go for my shots and just stay moving. Don’t sit down, don’t lose that momentum, keep that energy up,” she said. Clarke said successfully managing that moment was an important sign of progress because of what happened in a similar situation previously. Tennis can change quickly, and Clarke said maintaining momentum will be one of her main areas of focus as she prepares for another week of competition. “Momentum shifts very quickly in tennis,” she said. “For next week, just working on that when I have the momentum, keeping it as long as I can.” She understands that recovering momentum after losing it is possible, but believes taking advantage of opportunities while she has control of a match is critical. “You’ve got to take advantage of any opportunity because one momentum shift changes the whole dynamic of the match,” Clarke said. “It changes emotions of players.”

Clarke will now turn her attention to another opportunity in China after her first week ended without a doubles appearance. She was unable to get into the doubles draw this week but plans to try again next week. “Unfortunately, I didn’t get into the doubles this week, so my week one wrapped up very early,” Clarke said. “I’m going to try again next week and see how it goes.” The WTA ranking remains the primary objective for Clarke. She currently has an ITF ranking of No. 888 and is continuing to work toward earning her first WTA ranking points in singles and doubles. “The goal is still to get the WTA ranking,” she said. “Right now, we still have an ITF ranking. I’m 888 on the ITF rankings list. But the WTA ranking is still the goal and we’re working towards it.” Clarke remains confident that the ranking will eventually come as she continues to put herself in professional tournaments and learn from each match. “I know that I will obtain my WTA ranking. It’s just a matter of when,” she said. “It’s all about growth. It’s all about getting better,” she said. “Once I do the things that I need to do, I will get the results I’m looking for, but it’s just a matter of time, discipline and focus.”

Braves' star Acuña day-to-day after fouling ball off left leg By PAUL NEWBERRY, Associated Press ATLANTA (AP) — Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. left Atlanta's game against Cincinnati in the third inning after fouling a ball off his left leg Tuesday night. Acuña was listed as dayto-day with a contusion after X-rays, and a CT scan showed no serious damage. He was able to walk slowly off the field under his own power after hobbling away from the batting circle and dropping to his knees in clear pain. "Good news with Ronald," manager Walt Weiss said after the Braves lost to the Reds 4-0.

The injury comes with the playoffs just a week away for Atlanta, which clinched its seventh NL East title in the past nine years. The Braves are likely to open the playoffs hosting a bestof-three series against the lowest-seeded wild-card team. Asked if he had any worries about Acuña being ready for the postseason, Weiss replied, "Not as I sit here today, unless things change. But no, as I sit here today, no concerns." Acuña was tended to for several minutes by the Braves trainer, with Weiss looking on intently, before heading straight to the home clubhouse. "Very concerned at the time," Weiss said. "He hits the ball so hard. His foul

balls off the feet and legs are not the same as the average Joe. The ball comes off his bat so hot, so I was concerned at first." Acuña went down on a 3-1 pitch from Brandon Williamson with the Reds up 1-0. The slugging outfielder took a big swing, sending the ball off his left shin, below the knee and just above a protective guard. He dropped to the dirt with a big grimace, pulled himself up and limped a few feet away from the box before going to the ground again. The 2023 NL MVP has been one of Atlanta's hottest hitters down the stretch, hitting seven homers in his last 18 games — including a grand slam in a sweep of the Astros last weekend. He is

batting .259 with 20 homers, 55 RBIs and 20 stolen bases. "We'll see how he feels tomorrow," Weiss said. "He's going to be sore. Obviously, we'll err on the side of caution at this time of year. But all things considered, it's good news." The Braves have five games left in the regular season. Brewer Hicklen took over the leadoff spot and right field after Acuña left the game. On a 3-1 pitch, Acuna foul ball off his left leg, just above a protective pad. Acuna went down in a heap, hobbled out of the batting circle and dropped to his knees again while attended to by manager Walt Weiss and the trainer. Acuna eventually left the game.
