GOLF OSU’s record-tying round vaults Beavers into a big lead after two rounds of NCAA Albuquerque men’s golf regional —Oregon State men’s golf continued its tor- rid run at the NCAA Albuquerque Regional, as the Bea- vers widened their lead to five strokes after Tuesday’s second round. OSU tied a school record with a 13-under 275 to take command of the 14-team regional at UNM Championship Course. Led by senior Spencer Tibbits’ 6-under 66, the Beavers matched their best-ever one-round total at an NCAA regional. Oregon State, the regional’s No. 7 seed, has a 36-hole total of 20-under 556, five strokes ahead of Texas Tech with one round remaining. The Beavers have never won an NCAA regional. OSU’s best regional finish is fourth in 2010. Among individ- uals, Tibbits has a one-stroke lead with a two-round total of 9-under 135. The OSU senior had seven birdies and one bogey to match his career-low score during a college tournament. BASKETBALL Ionescu records 1st WNBA triple-double as Liberty top Lynx — Sabrina Ionescu had the first triple-double of her WNBA career to lead New York to an 86-75 win over the Minnesota Lynx on Tuesday night, giving the Liberty their first 3-0 start in 14 years. Ionescu, who had an NCAA record 26 triple-doubles in college, recorded the first in franchise history with 26 points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds. The No. 1 pick in the 2020 draft became the 10th player in league his- tory to have a triple-double, and first since Chelsea Gray did it in 2019. Ionescu reached the triple-double with her 10th re- bound with 5:24 left in the fourth. She hit a 3-pointer that ex- tended the advantage to 75-65. Sylvia Fowles led the Lynx (0- 2) with 26 points and 11 rebounds. Kayla McBride scored 16 points and Jessica Shepard had 12. Trail Blazers’ Stotts named Western Conference Coach of the Month for May — The Portland Trail Blaz- ers entered May desperately trying not to fall into the play-in round. Having already won three consecutive games to end April, the Blazers continued winning into May where they went 7-2 while collecting victories over Boston, Utah, the Los Angeles Lakers and Denver to finish 42-30 and capture sixth place in the Western Conference. That run earned Blazers coach Terry Stotts Western Conference Coach of the Month honors. This is the eighth time Stotts has received this award and the first time this season, his ninth with the franchise. Stotts is the 13th coach in NBA history to lead a franchise to the playoffs eight consecutive times since the 1970-71 season. Eastern Conference Coach of the Month went to New York’s Tom Thibodeau. — Bulletin wire reports MEGA MILLIONS The numbers drawn Tuesday night are: 3 5 56 61 66 4 Oregon Lottery results x 2 The estimated jackpot is now $475 million. As listed at www.oregonlottery.org and individual lottery websites NBA — out West or Philadelphia in the East. But before the playoffs of- ficially begin this weekend, LeBron vs. Steph — a pair of guys who both just happened to be born in Akron, Ohio — looms. “You’re talking about two of the greatest players of all time,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. “Both guys are still playing at such an elite level. And of course, four meetings in the fi- nals is going to create a rivalry. But there’s obviously tremen- dous mutual respect between the two of them.” The other matchups are set: No. 3 Milwaukee faces No. 6 Miami and No. 4 New York plays No. 5 Atlanta in the East quarterfinals, while No. 3 Denver meets No. 6 Portland and the fourth-seeded Los Angeles Clippers drew No. 5 Dallas in the West quarterfi- nals. Denver lost to Portland on Sunday, a result that kept the Blazers from the play-in — and kept the Nuggets from seeing the Lakers in Round 1. Boyle split his donated funds between both. I know in my own circle of colleagues, family and friends, we’ve talked a lot lately about trying to do something to make a difference, to galvanize community spirit and repair a reputation that’s now nation- ally tarnished. The Portland Diamond Project should be applauded for making big plans. They’ve positioned Portland as one of the possible expansion loca- tions, but if we’re being real, MLB isn’t putting a franchise in a boarded-up, crumbling city with so many people with- out a home. Basically, MLB is not coming to Dumptown. Last October Portland was passed over for a women’s NCAA Tournament Final Four bid. The images the rest of the country were being shown of Portland weren’t pretty. I ob- tained emails sent between Craig Cheek, the founder of the MLB to PDX movement, and Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler and wrote a column about the sobering tone. Cheek wrote to Wheeler: “Sorry to pile on, but need to convey that this is having an extremely negative impact and really poor backdrop to our ef- fort in bringing an MLB fran- chise to Portland.” Plans to bring Manfred and his inner circle to Portland to showcase the city were put on hold. Truth is, it should have been an alarm bell for us all. If we’re not the kind of city that can host guests, we ought to think seriously about what we can all do personally to change that. Not for baseball. But for Portland. Some billionaire may want to own a baseball team. But would that whale view Port- land as the place to dump a few billion dollars? As in, right now? In its current state? The Portland Diamond Project has some things work- ing in its favor right now. MLB’s owners need money and the quickest and easiest way to get it would be to split $8 billion in new franchise fees. Also, because of geography Portland would only have the Mariners to worry about when it came to territorial rights. Las Vegas shares territory with a half dozen MLB teams. Also, there’s some interest- ing commercial real estate that has come available during the pandemic. It makes me won- der if the silence from the MLB to PDX effort lately has been about repositioning the foot- print of the proposed ballpark. Feels like they have more op- tions than ever. But first, we’ve got to deal with cleaning up Portland. My friend is going to a ball- park today and he’ll probably text me a photo of himself sit- ting in the sunshine, taking in the Rockies and Padres. I’ll bet he has a $6 hot dog. I keep thinking it will take a series of small but significant steps to position Portland as a viable contender when MLB does ex- pand to 32 teams. Time to take one together. Continued from A5 “We’re getting healthy at the right time,” Lakers veteran Jared Dudley said. “And no- body wants to see a healthy Lakers team.” Under the old system, the Lakers, Warriors, Celtics and Wizards would be in the play- offs. The Grizzlies, Spurs, Pacers and Hornets would be out. The 7-8 game winners in each conference go to the play- offs as No. 7 seeds; the West winner will play Phoenix in the first round, the East winner draws a matchup with Brook- lyn. The 7-8 game loser will play host to the 9 vs. 10 winner in each conference; whoever pre- vails there will be the No. 8 seed and meet either Utah — the NBA’s overall No. 1 seed MLB Continued from A5 We must: • Clean up Portland. • Respect people. • Have no tolerance for de- struction. This is much bigger than bringing a ballpark to Port- land. It’s about re-framing the image and condition of the most notable city in our state. If a beautiful major league ball- park pops up in the wake of the movement, wonderful. But we have an opportunity here to foster a great comeback story. We shouldn’t wait around for city leaders who can’t — or won’t — do this on their own. There are a line of wonderful efforts already making a dif- ference. Support them. People such as Frank Moscow have given us a place to “ adopt one block,” in which you can make a one-year commitment. Organizations such as SOLVE, have given us a chance to bring the family out for a day and give back to the city.
