SAN FRANCISCO -- Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green will play against the Utah Jazz on Monday night after missing the past five games because of a torn ligament in his left finger.

"It's improved," Green said of his finger after Monday's shootaround. "It's not all the way 100 percent. I'll be waiting 'til March for a finger to become 100 percent. So you just kind of get it to where you can tolerate it and move forward ... you kind of mess up your fingers all year, every year. I think it's back at that point of a normal sprain. Sometimes it's going to get hit and you just keep it moving. But I can tolerate it now, I can dribble now, I can catch, so it's solid."

Green initially suffered the injury during a Nov. 1 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. He believes he will play his regular minutes against the Jazz after missing more than a week. Green wore tape around the finger for support during shootaround but is confident he will be able to contribute for his team.

"I didn't get another MRI," Green said. "But it feels better and I'm going to play."

Green, who did not travel with the Warriors on their most recent road trip to Houston, Minnesota and Oklahoma City, said he has been trying to stay in regular contact with his teammates over the past week. Green admitted that he is still adjusting to playing alongside his new, younger teammates as veterans Stephen Curry (broken hand) and Klay Thompson (left ACL rehab) continue healing from their own injuries.

"It's different," Green said. "Some reads that's kind of second nature to me, because I've been doing it for so many years, it's not quite the same. So really just adjusting to that and understanding that if somebody drives down in the middle of the paint and kick it out, they're probably not flying off the next pin. So kind of just figuring those things out and understanding that those same reads, they're not there. So it's an adjustment, but it's cool."

British sprinter takes on the 100m, 200m and relay at the World Para Athletics Championships

Having completed a grand slam of major titles by claiming Commonwealth gold last year, Sophie Hahn is focused on maintaining that impressive winning streak as she heads into her fourth World Para Athletics Championships.

Aged just 22, the Charnwood sprinter is already a multiple champion at Paralympic, world, European and Commonwealth level and is also the 100m and 200m world record-holder in the T38 category for athletes with cerebral palsy.

After Commonwealth 100m gold in Australia in April 2018, Hahn went on to win European 100m, 200m and relay titles in Berlin in the August and now hopes to retain her world 100m and 200m titles in Dubai as she also works toward a second Paralympics in Tokyo next summer.

“It’s exciting and I can’t quite believe that I’ve got the grand slam,” she says. “Hopefully I can repeat that. I’d just like to keep it going for as long as possible.

“I’d love to retain my titles in the 100m and 200m,” Hahn adds, on her aims for the world event. “If it’s a world record then that would be a bonus but for me the focus is to retain my titles and hopefully win a gold with the relay.

“It’s going to be a busy schedule but I’m ready for the challenge and I’m very excited to be in the universal relay because it’s a brand new event.

“There are two males and two females, with four different classifications in each team – visually impaired, a cerebral palsy runner, a wheelchair racer and either a leg or arm amputee.

“I’m not too sure in terms of the final four. I think we’re going to see how training goes and then decide. Whoever is going to run in the relay, it will be a strong team.”

While targeting three events is one challenge, the late timing of the championships in the season is another but Hahn has the benefit of experience, with her coach Leon Baptiste having won his Commonwealth 200m title later on in the year in 2010.

Now having been guided by Baptiste in Loughborough for a year, the sport and leisure student is pleased with her continued progress, as she improved her world 100m record to 12.43 in May to go with her 200m best of 25.93 set in July 2018 under the guidance of her former coach, Joe McDonnell.

“It’s a fantastic and very talented group and I think the working relationship with me and Leon this year has gone exceptionally well,” says Hahn, who trains alongside athletes such as Scottish 200m record-holder Beth Dobbin.

“I’m learning new drills, new warm-ups and I think that’s all going in the right direction.”

It also leaves her feeling well on track for Tokyo. “It’s only every four years,” she says, “and I can’t quite believe it’s Tokyo next year – it’s quite scary!”

PALMETTO, Fla. – Competitors in Indy Lights Presented by Cooper Tires will turn their attention to the Sunshine State in a month’s time for a two-day open test at Sebring (Fla.) Int’l Raceway on Dec. 11-12.

Sebring has long been a popular off-season locale for teams, being renowned as the best portrayal of a street circuit – which typically offers precious little track time – and will be extremely relevant heading into the 2020 calendar opener on the streets of St. Petersburg, Fla.

“There’s no better place to get ready for St. Pete and Toronto than Sebring,” said reigning Indy Lights champion Oliver Askew. “St. Pete is smoother than Toronto, which is as bumpy as Sebring if not bumpier, but it’s the low-grip factor that makes it such a relevant testing ground. Sebring also has a good mix of both high and low speed corners and heavy braking zones – it’s in the top-five tracks in terms of braking force.

“It’s hard to simulate the kind of walls you encounter on a street course, but Sebring has a few corners where, if you’re an inch off the line, it can bite you. It’s dusty and it gets really hot during the middle of the day, so track temps and lap times change quite a bit. It’s a good place to work on street course setups, to test in hot weather and get used to those conditions, and to gel with the team early in the testing season.”

The 1.8-mile, 11-turn Sebring Club Course will play host to a field that will include the debut of Exclusive Autosport, race winners in both the Indy Pro 2000 Series Presented by Cooper Tires and the Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship, which will now compete on all three levels. The team announced its intent to enter two cars in 2020 at the season finale in September.

HMD Motorsports is looking to expand from a two-car team to a three and possibly four-car squad for 2020 and already has the third car in their possession. The team was no stranger to podium results in 2019, guiding English rookie Toby Sowery to his first win and third place in the championship, and fellow rookie David Malukas to a pair of podium results.

Indy Lights stalwarts Andretti Autosport, Belardi Auto Racing and Juncos Racing are expected to return to the track with a full complement of drivers, and the potential for another new team entry to the Indy Lights paddock is in the works.

“A lot of teams head to Sebring for winter testing, and to this year make it an official series’ two-day test benefits all of our teams as well as new drivers looking at the series,” said Dan Andersen, Owner and CEO of Andersen Promotions. “We have high expectations for an increased field size next season, although 2019 produced some outstanding competition, and we will be closely following our two most recent champions – Oliver Askew and Patricio O’Ward – as they make their full season NTT IndyCar Series debuts.

“We’ve had some exciting announcements of late including the introduction of the CFP [Cockpit Frontal Protection] device, new series partner Bell Helmets, the creation of the Construction Contractors Club and the return of Hi-Tide Boat Lifts and the rewarding Kids On Track program. We have additional news in the pipeline as we look to make 2020 one of our best seasons yet for the Road to Indy.”

Pittsburgh Penguins star Sidney Crosby missed practice Monday and will not play against the New York Rangers on Tuesday in New York because of a lower-body injury.

"Sid is continuing to be evaluated right now," coach Mike Sullivan said. "I don't have an update for you. He will not play against the Rangers tomorrow. When I get further information, I will let you know."

The 32-year-old Crosby left the ice in the third period of the Penguins' shootout win over the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday. It wasn't clear when he was injured, but he had fallen awkwardly and also took a puck off the leg earlier in the game.

Crosby leads the Penguins with 17 points on five goals and 12 assists. Pittsburgh is currently fourth in the Metro Division.

One year since he teamed with Matt Kuchar for a memorable win that led to a less memorable dispute over compensation, caddie David Ortiz said he harbors no ill will toward his former player.

Ortiz, better known as "El Tucan" was a fill-in caddie for Kuchar at last year's Mayakoba Golf Classic. Kuchar went on to win the tournament, his first PGA Tour title in more than four years, and pocketed $1.3 million. Ortiz became the centerpiece of a social media firestorm when word got out earlier this year that Kuchar had only paid him $5,000 for the week's work rather than a typical caddie salary of 5 to 10 percent of a winner's check.

Kuchar eventually paid Ortiz an additional $45,000, and while that still fell below what an everyday looper might expect to receive, Ortiz is willing to move on according to a New York Post report.

"Kuchar is a good person," Ortiz said. "I'm not angry. Everything is good. Not paying was not good. But I have no anger."

According to the report, Ortiz initially planned to invest some of his earnings from Kuchar into building a laundromat, but decided against it over fears that he'd be charged inflated prices by local workers who had learned of his high-profile windfall.

He's also experienced an uptick in demand to caddie at Mayakoba, where resort visitors are now willing to pay a higher price to have the man that guided Kuchar to victory on their bag for the day.

Ortiz reportedly bought a used BMW with part of the money he received from Kuchar, with much of the remaining funds going toward his business ventures and everyday needs outside of caddying.

"Fifty thousand dollars, for me, is big," Ortiz said. "It's everything to me and not much to (Kuchar). The $50,000 I needed for my business and to fix my kitchen and bathroom at home and to buy a new cell phone."

Tiger Woods has a special connection to Veterans Day, given that his dad, Earl Woods retired from the U.S. Army as a lieutenant colonel after serving two tours of duty in Vietnam, and he didn't let the holiday pass without sending a special thank you to all the veterans out there, including his late father.

Woods posted a photo of Earl in uniform on Twitter and Instagram Monday, captioning the picture, "Thank you veterans for your selfless acts, courage and strength in protecting our freedom and keeping our country safe. Grateful to my Pops, and all of you, for your service."

Woods was hardly the only one in the golf community to thank the troops however, plenty of others flooded took to social media with shout-outs, starting with U.S. Navy vet and PGA Tour winner Billy Hurley.
