SPORTS BRIEFING
BASKETBALL
Villanova coach Jay Wright expected to retire — Ac-
cording to multiple sources, Villanova coach Jay Wright is
expected to retire after 21 seasons. Wright, 60, won two na-
tional championships with the Wildcats, in 2016 and 2018,
and made four Final Four appearances, including this past
season, where they fell to Kansas in the semifinal. He was
named Naismith Coach of the Year in 2006 and 2016, and
was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2021. Ford-
ham’s Kyle Neptune, who spent 10 years under Wright as
a video coordinator and assistant coach, is expected to be
named his successor, according to reports.
FOOTBALL
Lanning excited by Ducks’ recent signings of Josh
Conerly Jr., Kyler Kasper — Oregon added Josh Conerly
Jr. and Kyler Kasper to its 2022 recruiting class last week,
marking the two most significant signings thus far of Dan
Lanning’s tenure. The five-star offensive lineman and four-
star receiver, who is reclassifying from the class of 2023, are
the No. 1 and 4 signees in Oregon’s class, respectively, based
on their rating by 247Sports. Conerly, the No. 15 overall
prospect and No. 2 offensive lineman in this year’s class, ad-
dresses a position of need for the Ducks both in the short-
term, as he becomes one of 14 scholarship offensive linemen,
and long-term, with UO set to lose at least four players after
the upcoming season. Kasper, who committed and signed on
Sunday, similarly fills a need the Ducks have in 2022 and be-
yond. The 6-foot-5, 195-pound receiver adds another target
to a room that has 10 scholarship players.
BASEBALL
Mariners manager Scott Servais out due to COVID-19
— Seattle Mariners manager Scott Servais and third base
coach Manny Acta both tested positive for COVID-19 and
were away from the team beginning with Wednesday’s game
against the Texas Rangers. First base coach Kristopher Ne-
grón will serve as the acting manager. Negrón managed
Seattle’s Triple-A affiliate last season before joining the ma-
jor league staff this year. Seattle added Tacoma coach Zach
Vincej, hitting coordinator C.J. Gillman and special assign-
ment coordinator Dan Wilson to the bench as assistants for
Wednesday’s game. Negrón said Servais was in good spirits
and participated in morning meetings via video conference.

It most recently held the
U.S. Open in 2019, when Gary
Woodland chipped from one
end of the 17th green to the
other for a remarkable par
save on his way to his first
major.
Pebble Beach also hosts a
PGA Tour event every Feb-
ruary dating to 1947. It once
held a PGA Championship
(1977) and the precursor
to the Tour Championship
(1988).
“This relationship with Peb-

national treasure, is a historic
step forward for golf,” said

2014, when James put on a
mask to protect a facial injury
and scored a team regular-sea-
son record 61 for Miami in a
win over Charlotte.
The Heat were the only
team since James’ big playoff
night against the Nets in 2014
that hadn’t had a player score
45 points in a game since. But-
ler changed that, emphatically,
while sticking to his credo of
just doing “whatever it takes to
help this team win.”
Butler is unapologetically
and manically driven, almost
always grating on opponents
and sometimes even grating
on teammates — people are
still talking about the dustup
Butler had with Spoelstra and
Udonis Haslem during an in-
game huddle a month ago. But
nights such as Tuesday remind
the Heat of the level that But-
ler can reach at this time of
year, when a championship is
all that matters.
“I think you have to have
that dark side, kind of that
demeanor that you need to
push other people to be bet-
ter,” Heat point guard Kyle
Lowry said. “But you also have
to have the talent and work
ethic to do it, right? You can
talk about it, but if you’re not
about it and you don’t show
it, it’s different. He shows it.
He shows it when he plays,
he shows it when he comes to
work. He’s always here. He’s
on time and ready to do his
thing and go out there and go
to battle.”
Butler’s statistical averages
through the first two games
of this playoff run for the top-
seeded Heat: 33 points, 5.5
rebounds and 4.5 assists per
game, on 60% shooting from
the field and — most surpris-
ingly — 56% from the 3-point
line, an area that hasn’t ex-
actly been a strength of his
throughout this season. He’s
gotten to the foul line more
than any three of his Heat
teammates have combined in
the series, plus has committed
only two fouls in 72 minutes
of play.
Again, though, he insists
that this isn’t Bubble Jimmy.
“We’re a different team and
I’m a different player,” Butler
said.
“We’re better this way.”
There is a work-life balance,
even at this time of year for
Butler.
After Miami’s Game 1 win
on Sunday afternoon, Butler
talked about getting out of the
arena quickly to spend time
with his daughter before she
went to sleep that night.
Then, and only then, would
he turn his attention toward
Game 2.
And in the hours before
Game 2, he had his non-bas-
ketball habits as well. He lis-
tened to the Backstreet Boys.
(“I’m a huge fan,” Butler said.)
He had lots of his BigFace
brand of coffee. (“Need it,” he
said.) He played spades for a
while. (“Rituals,” he said.)
Then he showed up at the
arena and dropped 45 on the
Hawks, going on a personal
7-0 run in the final moments
to clinch the win.
Bubble Jimmy, Playoff
Jimmy, whoever it was, the
Heat just hope to see a lot
more of him over the next few
weeks.
“A guy like Jimmy, he can
play defense, he can play of-
fense,” Lowry said. “He hasn’t
had an opportunity to get to
his championship yet, but
that’s the goal. His ultimate
goal is to win a championship
and I think he will do what-
ever it takes and be whatever
type of player he needs to be
to get that.”
ing our Open championships,
the USGA and Pebble Bach
are committed to working
together to ensure a more di-
verse, welcoming and accessi-
ble game.”
Spyglass Hill, regarded as
the toughest of the Pebble
Beach courses in relatively
calm conditions, will host the
U.S. Senior Women’s Open
and the U.S. Senior Open in
consecutive weeks in 2030.
As part of the commitment,
the USGA and Pebble Beach
plan to create internships and
other career opportunities in
golf, along with research into
turf grass and water conser-
vation.
“Supporting youth educa-
tion is a pillar of our commu-
nity outreach and this part-
nership will greatly expand
opportunities for young peo-
ple to pursue a career in this
industry,” said David Stivers,
CEO of Pebble Beach Co.
The U.S. Open now has
only 10 open slots through
2051, with the next available
year in 2028.
Of the current anchor sites,
Oakmont has hosted the U.S.
Open nine times, the most of
any club, and the U.S. Open
returns to the Pittsburgh-area
course in 2025, 2033, 2042
and 2049.
Pinehurst No. 2 in North
Carolina is the newcomer,
first holding the U.S. Open in
1999 and returning in 2005
and 2014. It has the U.S. Open
in 2024, 2029, 2035, 2041 and
2047. Pinehurst also was cho-
sen as a secondary headquar-
ters for the USGA.
The USGA still could have
a fourth anchor site. Among
the clubs said to be under
consideration are Shinnecock
Hills and Winged Foot, both
in New York. Shinnecock Hills
is hosting its sixth U.S. Open
in 2026.
Bodenhamer spoke only
of multi-year commitments
the USGA has. Oakland Hills
outside Detroit recently was
awarded U.S. Opens in 2034
and 2051, while Merion out-
side Philadelphia has 2030 and
2050.

“However you want to de-
scribe it, who cares? He knows
how to win. He knows how
to help teams win. The game
is played on both sides of the
floor. It’s played with IQ. It’s
played with toughness. It’s
played with making plays in
those winning moments. It’s
not necessarily what every-
body thinks it is.”
It wasn’t Bubble Jimmy,
either. Butler himself shot
down that comparison.
That moniker comes from
when Butler was Miami’s best
player at the NBA’s season-re-
start bubble at Walt Disney
World two years ago, when
he carried the Heat on an
improbable run to the NBA
Finals.
He’s still Miami’s best player,
but this is a new version, he
insists.
“I’m a different player now
than I was then and I’m OK
with that,” Butler said. “I just
always want to play basketball
the right way and do whatever
it takes to help this team, this
organization win. That’s why
they brought me here.”
The previous time a Heat
player scored at least 45 points
in a game, before Tuesday,
was nearly eight years ago —
May 12, 2014, when LeBron
James scored a team playoff
record 49 for Miami in a win
at Brooklyn.
The previous time it hap-
pened at home was March 3,
