Johnson’s agent, David Winkle, said the surgery was minor and that Johnson needed some cartilage cleaned up around his knee. It “is considered routine and similar in nature to his prior right knee surgery in December of 2011,’’ Winkler said (via ESPN). Johnson, 35, hadn’t indicated he was feeling any discomfort in his knee. He held the No. 1 spot in the world for a while, but struggled in the second half of the 2018-19 season....

Dwarf Fortress: How to Make a Study There is only one thing that is strictly required for creating a study, and that is a chair or throne. While these objects can be created in several ways, one of the simplest is to use a Carpenter’s Workshop to craft a wooden chair. Once such a chair has been made, Dwarf Fortress players should click on the build icon at the bottom of the screen, select furniture, and then place their chair in a room that will act as the administrator’s or noble’s study....

You use it for the first time and it bears immediate fruit. You try it again and the results are similar. But after a couple of attempts, you find that you aren’t really solving that issue. Instead, that quandary has begun messing with your plans....

Jeff Burton has seen change at Bristol over the years. But as he looks to the Sprint Cup racing at the track this weekend, he says nobody knows what will happen. He does, though, expect a return to “old-school Bristol.” The half-mile track was once loved and hated for its rough-and-tumble racing, for the ability to watch a solid run disappear in a moment’s touch of a bumper.

The video, which was posted to Twitter by WXChasing (Brandon Clement), shows two individuals at a burned down market in the New Orleans neighborhood of St. Claude. “The moment looters realize a drone is watching them try to break into an ATM maching [sic] in burned down St. Claude market in the lower 9th ward,” the tweet said. In the video, one of the individuals can be seen attempting to empty the ATM which is severely damaged from a fire....

Kate Dixon lives in Tasmania, Australia, and has been growing flowers as part of her floral business, Clifton Blooms, for two years. Largely providing floral arrangements for weddings and events, Dixon is always keen to grow her own beautiful blooms. “I grow a mix of Australian and South African native flowers,” she told Newsweek. “Old-world, cottage-garden favorites—hence why I was growing some of these lovely ornamental poppies.” Dixon frequently shares pictures of her flora on Instagram, and that is how she ended up receiving a call from the Department of Natural Resources and Environment Tasmania (NRE Tas)....

We compared DSLR vs. point-and-shoot cameras to help you choose the camera that’s best for you. Overall Findings Point-and-shoot cameras have come a long way in recent years in terms of resolution, options, and image quality. The best choice for you depends on what kind of photographer you are.

In a prior statement, the team said it recently became aware of the accusations against Murray; after an internal review, it enlisted a third party — Los Angeles-based law firm Sheppard Mullin — to investigate the alleged toxic workplace environment Murray fostered. The team will reportedly see the investigation through to its conclusion, even after Murray’s resignation. League sources told the Daily Faceoff he directed continued — perhaps years-long — verbal abuse and harassment toward Ducks players, coaches and other team personnel....

Freshman Cassius Stanley broke Williamson’s maximum vertical record on Wednesday with a leap that caught the attention of his teammates. Williamson set the record in 2018 ahead of his lone season at Duke. The No. 1 overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft cleared the max height so easily, the testing device had to be raised for a more accurate measurement. Duke didn’t release the final numbers from Williamson and Stanley, but it’s safe to say both players cleared 40 inches....

The two blue-blooded North Carolina schools have had a rivalry dating back for several decades and the matchup this weekend comes during the final season and potentially the final game for Duke head coach, Mike Krzyzewski.

Newsweek has put together a primer ahead of the game to compile everything you need to know before watching the Final Four game between Duke and UNC....

Although there are plenty of unique monsters, certain ones seem to not only become popular within the community, but permeate into pop culture as well. One such monster is the Mind Flayer, or Illithid. Odds are most have heard one of these two names at some point, whether in relation to tabletop roleplaying games or as a reference in pop culture, like The Mandalorian’s Mind Flayer. For those unaware, Mind Flayers were originally seen in a Dungeons and Dragons’ first edition news letter, where they were described as “a super-intelligent, man-shaped creature with four tentacles by its mouth which it uses to strike its prey....

Perak’s hope of finding their home league win under the guidance of Mehmet Durakovic was smashed as T-Team rose from their first half disappointment to take a 1-2 lead going into injury time in the second half. However, Perak was awarded a late penalty which Hadi Yahya converted to save the face of the home side. The 2-2 draw against a team five rungs below in the league table was not what the doctor prescribed and Durakovic was also puzzled as to the difference in performance of his team before and after the half time break....

Needing a win to stay alive in the Cup, the Black Panthers were on the back foot after conceding a goal in the 2nd minute of the match. Mohammedan Sporting Club almost equalised a couple of minutes later, but Vanlalbiaa Chhangte’s shot hit the crossbar. Despite several opportunities, they failed to restore parity. ATK held their nerves in the second half too. Midfielder Mudde Mussa initiated a lot of attacks, as well as Tirthankar Sarkar, but ATK’s stoppers were always there for the rescue....

Golden State Warriors star Durant confirmed on Instagram on Wednesday he had undergone successful surgery, having torn his Achilles in Game 5 of the NBA Finals against the Toronto Raptors earlier this week. The 30-year-old, a 10-time All-Star who was named Finals MVP in both of the Warriors’ championship victories in 2017 and 2018, was making his comeback from a calf problem he sustained against the Houston Rockets last month, and former MVP Charles Barkley was among those to criticise the Warriors for rushing Durant back....

The now-Brooklyn Nets star opened up about the events leading up to the ruptured Achilles he suffered in the first half of Game 5. According to him, Golden State’s staff do not deserve the blame. “Hell, no. How can you blame [the Warriors]? Hell, no,” Durant told Yahoo Sports. “I heard the Warriors pressured me into getting back. Nobody never said a word to me during rehab as I was coming back....

The tweet from Dustin Poirier immediately caught the attention of fans, who will remember that ‘The Diamond’ almost fought Diaz a few years ago. While Poirier’s tweet doesn’t suggest anything at the moment, it could be a hint of what ‘The Diamond’ is angling towards next. Here’s what Dustin Poirier tweeted out: Back in 2018, at the UFC 230 pay-per-view, Dustin Poirier was set to fight Diaz in a huge lightweight showdown....
