Dan Gilbert Cleveland Cavaliers owner talks during a press conference introducing new head coach John Beilein at Cleveland Clinic Courts on May 21, 2019 in Independence, Ohio. Dan Gilbert, owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers, wants to bring a WNBA team to Northeast Ohio. Rock Entertainment Group, the umbrella company that hosts Gilbert's sports and entertainment properties, told CNBC on Wednesday that it intends to submit a proposal for a WNBA expansion team. The Cavs also have an existing practice facility in Independence, Ohio, which they said could be ready-made for a WNBA team. The Cleveland Cavs are off to their best start in history, currently sitting in first place in the Eastern Conference with a 15-1 record.

More consequential, however, was the stagnant or shrinking turnout in these cities, which — coupled with turnout growth in Republican counties across the blue wall — drove Trump’s victory. While the number of voters throughout the rest of Michigan grew by 2.6%, the number in Detroit fell by 4%. NBC News Decision DeskThe third large blue wall city is Milwaukee, which makes up about 60% of Milwaukee County’s population. Even though turnout grew slightly overall in the city, just over half of precincts (58%) experienced a turnout decrease. Comparing Milwaukee’s sluggish turnout to Dane County — which is Wisconsin’s other large Democratic county, where turnout increased by over 6% — helps to show how different demographics may explain turnout changes.

The man, whose age was not known, was pronounced dead at the scene at 3:23 a.m.A gas can and struck matches were found near the body, police said. The body was taken to the medical examiner's office and the investigation is ongoing. NBC News has reached out Philadelphia medical examiner's office for comment.

The New York Jets fired general manager Joe Douglas on Tuesday, the team announced. The Jets hired Douglas after he spent three years as the Philadelphia Eagles’ vice president of player personnel. In 94 games since Douglas has been general manager, New York has a 30-64 record. And before the 2023 season, Douglas traded for three-time MVP Aaron Rodgers, a move that has proved to be disastrous. The Jets will now need both a new head coach and general manager in the offseason.

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court on Monday ordered election officials in the state to stop counting mail-in ballots marked with the wrong date or missing dates from their outer envelopes. The court order specifies that Bucks, Montgomery and Philadelphia counties, where Republicans argue that officials have opted to count mail-in ballots with errors on their outer envelopes, must adhere to the high court's earlier rulings, which said undated or misdated mail-in ballots should not be counted. “David McCormick and the national Republicans are working to throw out provisional ballots cast by eligible Pennsylvania voters and accepted by county boards. McCormick leads Casey by 17,408 votes with 99.7% of the vote in and 24,000 ballots still to be counted. Pennsylvania rules trigger a recount of ballots when the margin is less than 0.5 percentage points.

When he spoke to the media (for the last time as Jets GM) on Nov. 6, Douglas looked defeated. It included Johnson, Douglas, vice chairman Christopher Johnson, team president Hymie Elhai, and Ira Akselrad, an adviser to Johnson. From then on, many in the Jets organization described Douglas as a shell of himself. Multiple team sources believe this was a matter of Johnson’s preoccupation with social media factoring into the Jets’ decision-making. Ultimately, it’s difficult for any general manager to survive six years without sniffing the postseason.

Mahomes vs. Allen, Round 8The NFL schedulers probably should have made this the Sunday night contest. The Bears rank seventh against the pass, have allowed only 18.6 points per game (seventh-best) and have 16 takeaways (also seventh). Foes do find it hard to run on Baltimore, which gives up an NFL-low 73.0 rushing yards per game. They are holding opponents to a league-best 13.1 points per game, and haven’t allowed more than 20 points in any game this season.

There’s an argument to be made that Thursday’s game between the Washington Commanders and the Philadelphia Eagles is the most important Commanders regular season game in nearly 20 years. Since 2000, the Eagles have seven NFC championship game appearances, as well as three Super Bowl appearances. In fact, of the Commanders’ seven victories, only one has come against a team that’s currently over .500. Three of their wins have come against the Giants and the Carolina Panthers, who have seven wins combined.

If Kamala Harris' campaign was known for anything, it was its blockbuster fundraising. The overarching challenge at this point for what is left of Harris' campaign is that the financial picture is shrouded in mystery — even for those within the organization. What is even more unusual are the explosive clashes taking place in and around the Harris campaign universe. The requests have all been shut down and two Harris campaign officials told NBC News that the email list is not for sale. “We had some emails pre-scripted for a long fight,” a senior campaign official close to the strategy said.
