HOUSTON -- J.J. Watt was prepared for his May 11 commencement address at the University of Wisconsin. Or at least he thought he was.

Then he was asked to send a copy of his speech when he was done writing it.

"I said, 'What do you mean?'" Watt said. "'I don't write speeches. I'm just going to go up there and talk.'

"That was my full plan. I did not know you that had to write it all out. I'm dead serious. I didn't know. He was like, 'They have a teleprompter for you. What do you want on it?'

"I said, 'Nothing. Just give me a black screen and tell me when to stop talking.' That was literally my plan. But I found out you have to write some stuff down. So I have about a month to figure it out."

The Houston Texans defensive end started his college career at Central Michigan but transferred to Wisconsin as a walk-on in 2008. He played for the Badgers for two seasons, and although Watt did not graduate from Wisconsin because he declared early for the NFL draft in 2011, he said he knows what everyone actually wants from a commencement speaker.

"I mean, I have some messages I want to say," Watt said. "I have some things I want to get across. But let's be honest: They just want to go drink beer afterwards. They're excited. I know how commencements go. They just want the person to give a cool message for about five minutes, and then get off the stage."

Watt said he isn't nervous about speaking in front of the crowd, saying he's "really excited about that."

"I get to go back to Wisconsin [and] Camp Randall [Stadium]," Watt said. "I never graduated, so I get to see what graduation looks like. It's an honor. It's such a true honor.

"I grew up 45 minutes from Camp Randall, so being invited to go back [and] have the opportunity to go back to a school and a team that I watched growing up and idolized, walked on and eventually got a scholarship from [and] now to be able to speak at their commencement, it's an unbelievable honor. I take it very seriously. Even though I said I wasn't going to write a speech, I take it very seriously. I'm humbled."

The New England Patriots have signed Demaryius Thomas with hopes his addition can bolster an otherwise thin receiving group.

The team announced the moved Tuesday, less than a week after it had hosted Thomas on a free-agent visit.

Thomas, 31, was acquired by the Texans from the Denver Broncos just before last season's trade deadline. He suffered a season-ending torn Achilles tendon in December and was released by Houston in February.

He caught 23 passes for 275 yards and two touchdowns in seven games after his trade to the Texans. Between the two teams, Thomas finished 2018 with 59 catches for 677 yards and five touchdowns.

The Patriots lost out on one of their top free-agent targets, Adam Humphries, who signed with the Tennessee Titans. They return top option Julian Edelman, 32, who earned Most Valuable Player honors in Super Bowl LIII, and re-signed Phillip Dorsett to a one-year deal that could be worth up to $2.6 million.

Former Washington Redskins receiver Maurice Harris and slot receiver Bruce Ellington were signed to modest one-year deals to help fill out a depth chart that also includes practice-squad player Damoun Patterson and 2018 sixth-round pick Braxton Berrios, who spent his rookie season on injured reserve.

The club could have brought back Chris Hogan, who was an unrestricted free agent, but wasn't aggressive in doing so. Hogan signed a one-year deal with the Carolina Panthers last week that could be worth up to $2 million.

Thomas, a four-time Pro Bowl selection, was due $14 million in 2019, none of which was guaranteed. He said just prior to his Texans release that he wasn't thinking about retiring.

"I can still play, man," he said.

Thomas was arrested Feb. 27 and charged with vehicular assault (a felony), reckless driving and driving without proof of insurance in connection with an accident that occurred Feb. 16 in downtown Denver. He and two passengers were injured and taken to the hospital after his SUV went off the road and flipped end-over-end after hitting a median at more than 70 mph -- more than twice the speed limit.

Thomas pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of careless driving on March 27, and the felony charge was dismissed. He was fined $300, ordered to complete 50 hours of community service and received one year of supervised probation.

A former first-round pick, Thomas spent his first eight-plus NFL seasons with the Broncos, including a stint under former Denver head coach and current Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels. Thomas has the second-most receiving yards (9,055) and touchdown catches (60) in Broncos history, trailing Rod Smith in both categories.

Thomas will be the fifth receiver in the Tom Brady era (since 2000) to sign with the Patriots after amassing five or more 1,000-yard seasons elsewhere. The list includes Reggie Wayne (8), Randy Moss (7), Chad Ochocinco (7), Joey Galloway (6).

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Kentucky guard Tyler Herro says he plans to remain in the NBA draft after initially leaving open the possibility of returning to school.

The 6-foot-5 freshman announced his decision in a news release Tuesday. Last week, he said he would enter the draft and hire an NCAA-certified agent but didn't commit to leaving Kentucky. Now he says he's "ready to jump into that next stage."

Herro was the Wildcats' No. 2 scorer, averaging 14 points per game. He joins teammate PJ Washington in leaving school early for the draft.

Herro thanked Kentucky fans and said his lone season with the Wildcats was everything he had hoped for. Coach John Calipari said Herro was "wired and driven like few other players" he has coached.

Virginia star Kyle Guy announced in a statement Tuesday that he is declaring for the NBA draft and will sign with an agent.

"I set a goal with my brothers when we committed to UVA. Three years later we accomplished that goal of winning a National Championship," Guy said. "I also set a goal for myself to play in the NBA."

Beyond blessed. Very excited for this journey. 5 out ❤️ Thanks to everyone who had a hand in this!!! pic.twitter.com/EBSspocjcj

The junior guard led the Cavaliers in scoring each of the past two years, including 15.4 points per game in 2018-19, and he scored 24 points in the team's national championship game win over Texas Tech on April 8.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have been granted permission to meet with LA Clippers general manager Michael Winger in the franchise's search for a president of basketball operations, league sources told ESPN.

Minnesota owner Glen Taylor has targeted a handful of potential candidates to oversee the Timberwolves operations --- with Winger among them, league sources told ESPN.

Since arriving in August 2017 after serving as an assistant GM with Oklahoma City, Winger, 39, has been credited with having a significant impact in the Clippers front office under Lawrence Frank, president of basketball operations.

The Clippers have reshaped their roster, replenished future draft assets, cleared max salary cap space and managed to stay competitive and return to the playoffs.

Winger spent seven years with the Thunder under GM Sam Presti, where the franchise was a perennial Western Conference contender. Winger started his career in the Cleveland Cavaliers front office under former GM Danny Ferry.

THE CLOCK HANGS on a silver hook, "Lillard Time" scrawled across in red cursive. A "D" is in place of where the 12 would be. It's always set to midnight. It's always Lillard Time.

It's an Adidas promotional item that found a home inside Damian Lillard's locker, along with a few other items of importance, such as hand-drawn pictures from fans and keepsakes from games.

There's some debate over whether "Lillard Time" or "Dame Time" is the preferred term, and where you fall depends mostly on when you started following. While Dame Time dates to when Lillard was starring for the Oakland Rebels in AAU ball, Lillard Time was officially stamped as a professional colloquialism on May 2, 2014.

The play wasn't even really for Lillard, set up instead to go to LaMarcus Aldridge for a tip shot inside the paint. But down two with 0.9 seconds left in Game 6 of the Portland Trail Blazers' first-round playoff series against the Houston Rockets, Lillard sprinted off the right wing toward inbounder Nicolas Batum. Lillard clapped his hands, calling for the ball. It was delivered, and so did he, splashing a pure 28-footer on the left wing with Chandler Parsons chasing as the horn rang. The Blazers were on to the second round for the first time since 2000.

That shot against the Rockets changed Lillard's life -- and the Trail Blazers' trajectory. He had a $100 million signature shoe deal and was doing commercials, and with a catchphrase and likability, Lillard's stock was soaring. To this day, framed pictures of the shot hang in offices in the Blazers' practice facility, because it represented -- and still does, really -- a new era of promise for the Blazers, an emergence from an apparent destiny of perpetual adversity and heartbreak.

From the knees that betrayed Brandon Roy to choosing Greg Oden instead of Kevin Durant, the Blazers had been star-crossed and flat unlucky for more than a decade. And that was after being star-crossed and unlucky 20 years before that.

The following season, they won 51 games but were grit-and-grinded by the Memphis Grizzlies in the first round. They won 44 the next season and beat the LA Clippers in six games before falling to the 73-win Golden State Warriors in the second round. They were .500 in 2016-17 and were swept by the Warriors in the first round.

And last season, after winning 49 and landing the 3-seed, they were again swept in the first round, this time by the New Orleans Pelicans.

Lillard had a horrible series -- 35 percent shooting, a near even assist-to-turnover ratio. It was now 10 straight playoff losses, two straight first-round outs and never anything beyond the second round.

After the Pelicans sweep, Lillard shut down everything. He didn't watch any of the playoffs, avoiding the chance of seeing some highlight of Anthony Davis swarming him in the pick-and-roll or a Nikola Mirotic contested fadeaway 3 to remind him of the failure.

Then, this summer, with the Los Angeles Lakers adding LeBron James, pundits around the league began their annual exercise of projecting the team most likely to be left out of the postseason.

The trendy choice? Portland.

The Blazers started their season by beating the Lakers, then proceeded to win 53 games to once again hold home-court advantage in their opening-round playoff series. While the rest of the league reacted to their playoff disappointment, the Blazers didn't. Especially Lillard, who made no demands, except of himself. Those close to him know he was deeply bothered by another first-round out, but his rational, levelheaded demeanor drives the Blazers, and his message was simple: It happens. Move forward.

"Sometimes," he said, "it's just your turn to go through hard times."

The deal of Lillard Time: If you're willing to shoot your shot, you have to be willing to live with missing. Consider: Lillard is 28-of-85 on go-ahead or game-tying shots in the last 30 seconds of games in his career, according to ESPN Stats & Information research. That's 57 misses, or 29 more failures than successes. But that's also tied for the most makes during that span with Russell Westbrook and five more than LeBron, six more than James Harden and eight more than Durant.

"I always talk about, like, with end-of-game situations, making and missing big shots, I know I can shoulder that," Lillard said. "I can live with having the success of the playoffs and having a huge failure. I know I can deal with it."

The confidence never wavers for Damian Lillard. But when will it be Lillard's time?

THE BEER WAS on ice and ready in Terry Stotts' office. There wasn't going to be a big celebration or anything, more an acknowledgement and appreciation.

With a win over the Brooklyn Nets, the Blazers would clinch a sixth consecutive postseason appearance, one that surely meant more to the organization after the death of longtime owner Paul Allen in October. ("As a group, we play with that [memory]," Lillard said after Portland's Game 1 win on Sunday over the Oklahoma City Thunder.)

Stotts planned to give a speech to his team about proving the doubters wrong, about how predictions didn't have them making it and to take pride in that accomplishment. But most importantly, that they weren't finished yet.

"This is a league of expectations," Stotts said. "And you celebrate when you exceed expectations. We expected to make the playoffs but nobody else did, so we needed to take pride in that."

Making the playoffs for top-tier franchises is just a checked box on the season, a footnote for next season's media guide. It became a footnote for a completely different reason.

In double overtime against the Nets on March 28, Jusuf Nurkic jumped to tip in a rebound and came down awkwardly in a mess of bodies under the basket. His left leg got caught and broke as the weight of his 7-foot, near-300-pound frame hit the floor. It was a two-point game with 2:22 left, and while the Blazers went on to win 148-144, those final minutes were filled with shock.

Stotts' postgame media conference contained fewer than 50 words; he could describe Nurkic's injury only as "devastating." The locker room was bleak, almost mournful, players talking in hushed whispers, just the sounds of showers droning and plastic hangers clicking against one another.

"A lot of people kind of ... conform. I don't want it to sound like I'm saying don't care about championships. That's not my point. But what I'm saying is a lot of people give in to the pressure of, 'I didn't have this, I didn't have rings.'"

Damian Lillard

A season of redemption was in danger before the Blazers even got the chance to redeem anything. With Nurkic on the floor, the Blazers were plus-10.4 points per 100 possessions better than their opponents. When he's on the floor, the Blazers have the best offense in the NBA (116.0 points per 100 possessions). When he's off, the Blazers are minus-2.4 points per 100 possessions -- an offense on par with the 19-win Cleveland Cavaliers.

Lillard sat at his locker after the Nets game, gathering his thoughts. He was sullen. Lillard talked about how just the other day Nurkic had dropped by his house to visit and see Lillard's 1-year-old son. Lillard spoke of how fragile the NBA is, how much the friendships matter.

The team boarded a flight for Chicago the next day, and Stotts addressed the injury at practice. He told the team about the 2011 NBA champion Dallas Mavericks, a team on which Stotts was an assistant coach. They lost Caron Butler to injury midway through the season when they had the fourth-best record in the league.

Portland's midseason acquisitions of Rodney Hood and Enes Kanter (who had 20 points and 18 rebounds in Game 1 vs. the Thunder and was crowned the MVP of the game by Lillard) have proved vital, deepening the roster and allowing the Blazers to absorb some adversity. CJ McCollum is nearing full strength after a left knee injury, and Lillard is finding the peak of his powers. There's still a belief they can be dangerous in the postseason, but even after an emotional Game 1 win, some still expect them to bow out in the first round.

Those kinds of things are just kerosene to the already burning flame for Lillard: If it were easy, what's the reward in that?

LOST SOMEWHERE IN the Portland suburb of Lake Oswego, Blazers general manager Neil Olshey made up his mind about Lillard.

It was June 2012, and Lillard had just finished a private workout with the Blazers. He and Olshey hopped into a car to meet Paul Allen and staff for an interview and dinner. Only Olshey, newly hired and new to the area, didn't really know where he was going. Neither did Lillard.

While the duo navigated their way to dinner, Lillard displayed an obvious charisma that impressed Olshey. Coming from the Clippers, Olshey had spent a year around Chauncey Billups and had seen a lot of the same qualities in Lillard. There were other factors: how good Lillard was in the pick-and-roll, how analytics loved his game, his scoring ability.

Twenty-four days after Olshey was hired, he made his first executive decision. He selected Lillard with the sixth overall pick in the 2012 NBA draft.

"We think we had one of the best drafts in the league," Olshey said at his post-draft media conference. "We found our franchise point guard."

To some, though, it looked like an unnecessarily risky pick: taking an undersized guard from Weber State, especially with highly regarded prospects such as Harrison Barnes and Terrence Ross on the board.

Olshey tied himself to Lillard immediately. There would be no competition at his position. Lillard would start from Day 1.

There are leaders in a locker room and there are caretakers of an organization. Lillard is naturally both. He calls a car service to help a new teammate like Kanter get home. He watches G League games -- full games -- to give feedback to Gary Trent Jr. and Anfernee Simons. Lillard and McCollum fly commercial to go to Las Vegas Summer League to watch the Blazers' young players. He has taken the 15th man on the roster on a shopping spree to get outfitted to sit on an NBA bench. He has invested in building the team, texting Olshey about prospects while he watched the NCAA tournament, wondering if one is a first-round talent.

"I think Damian might be the best star leader in the league," Stotts said. "There are leaders in this league, but being a star and a leader the way he conducts himself around his teammates, on the basketball court, in the locker room, in the community, he's the same guy every day."

Lillard deflects credit for the Blazers' culture, citing by name a list of coaches (some no longer with the team) that deserve more recognition than he does -- David Vanterpool, Nate Tibbetts, Kaleb Canales, Kim Hughes, Jim Moran, Dale Osbourne, John McCullough. He points out that both Stotts and Olshey were there before he was.

"The environment [Stotts] creates by giving opportunity and freedom and relaxed atmosphere and how comfortable it is," Lillard said, "I think that's where it all starts.

"I want to see things work out for everybody ... so it's a burden I place on myself to make sure that we are performing at a certain level, that we get certain things done."

Even with the context of Nurkic's injury, what if the Blazers go out again in the first round? Are big changes coming? Will they react differently? There might be cries to blow it all up. But what's on the other side of that?

The Blazers aren't really interested in a rebuild. Their chips are all-in with Lillard until he either retires or leaves. And the chances of the latter are basically nonexistent.

Lillard isn't shy talking about his affinity for the Blazers and desire to hold all their franchise records. He openly talks about what the Blazers have, how sound their culture is, how it should be a place players want to play. When he is asked about how he has impacted those things, with context in the question of how it doesn't seem like he is ever considering playing somewhere else, he interrupts the question: "No, I'm not."

The pressure Lillard feels is less about personal achievement and more about what outcomes mean for those who count on him in the organization. What did a sweep mean for Stotts? For his staff? For the trainers and their families? For teammates that he loves, such as Al-Farouq Aminu and Maurice Harkless? Other places would've fired the coach or made a trade after the embarrassment of last postseason. The Blazers just did what they've always done: They leaned on Lillard.

"There wasn't any finger pointing," Stotts said. "A lot of teams could've gone either way in those situations, and I think because of his character, it helped hold it together."

Lillard is 28 and has probably close to another decade of All-Star-level play in him. In the present Ringz culture, where titles trump every reasonable debate, to some it feels hollow to believe in the beauty of sustained success and consistent opportunity. One championship, at whatever cost, is more important than any journey to get there. Lillard doesn't subscribe to that.

"A lot of people kind of ... conform," he said, thinking over the word choice. "I don't want it to sound like I'm saying don't care about championships. That's not my point. But what I'm saying is a lot of people give in to the pressure of, 'I didn't have this, I didn't have rings.'"

Lillard mentions legendary players, such as Gary Payton, a fellow Oakland native who played the majority of his career in the Pacific Northwest. He asks a question: Do you even remember that Payton won a championship in 2006 with the Miami Heat?

"When you talk about Gary Payton, you talk about Gary Payton in Seattle," Lillard said. "You don't talk about Gary Payton winning a championship in Miami, coming off the bench. With the Heat and D-Wade and Shaq, he was on that team. But nobody talks about that."

Lillard talks about Dirk Nowitzki and the respect he demands. How his one championship in Dallas carries the weight of what three or four on a superteam chasing rings would. Legacy is a complicated topic in professional sports. But Lillard already understands what he wants his to be.

"It's the people I work with every day, my teammates, the coaching staff, our training staff," he said. "I value that and the impact it has on me and the impact I have on it. I think you've got to take those things into consideration. We're all working together to try and win a championship; that's our main thing we want to accomplish.

"But if it doesn't happen, you still have to have a certain level of appreciation and love of the other things."

IN THE CHURN of rumors and stars leveraging their way to different situations, Lillard's name rarely comes up. There's no back channeling, no offshore recruiting going on at events or All-Star Games.

He isn't listening. But if you call, he'll have something to say: If you want to play with a star, come here. We're the ones that are winning.

"I look at somebody that's close in age with me that's a really good player that could bump us up a level," Lillard said. "When I think of that, I'm saying, OK, Anthony Davis. We've got a winning culture. We win, we're not jealous of each other, we have a good time.

"A player like that, when I think of these situations, that's what I think of. He'll win, he'll get to be himself and he'll get to be on a team that fits. I think he would be perfect for us."

Portland isn't the kind of place that makes superstar shortlists, however. It's the kind of place, like Oklahoma City or San Antonio or Utah, that you have to see behind the scenes to understand.

Like how the Thunder took their chance with Paul George or the Raptors are with Kawhi Leonard, Lillard thinks the Blazers could sell the same thing: passionate fan base, high-quality leadership, a strong front office. And maybe most importantly, an established franchise player that any kind of star should want to join.

"I know if a bunch of people come around, they'll see. I'm not for show," Lillard said. "I'm not in competition with nobody. I'm trying to be the best version of myself and get the job done. ... It would take people to be a part of it to see it. That's just the part that is unfortunate.

"Because you don't get official visits in the NBA."

Whatever the future holds for the Blazers, though, if it's another first-round out or a deep, validating playoff run, the perspective isn't changing.

"I just stay the course," Lillard said. "We got swept; it was bad. Sometimes, it's your turn."

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – American Flat Track returns to action Saturday at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, Texas, for the Al Lamb’s Dallas Honda Texas Half-Mile presented by Russ Brown Motorcycle Attorneys.

The opening two rounds in the AFT Twins presented by Vance & Hines championship battle have proven both intense and unpredictable.

Reigning Grand National Champion Jared Mees scored an amazing 20 wins in 31 attempts during a historically dominant stretch that spanned much of the 2017 and 2018 seasons, resulting in two runaway titles. However, Mees is now winless in the last seven main events and ranks fifth in the 2019 standings.

Daytona TT winner Briar Bauman leads the series points, followed closely by Atlanta Short Track victor Brandon Robinson.

Mees was victorious at last year’s Texas Half-Mile and is no doubt eager for a return to his dominant ways. But if there’s any rider even more motivated to win this weekend than Mees, it has to be his long-time rival, Bryan Smith.

Smith broke his left fibula in a spectacular, multi-rider crash at Texas Motor Speedway a year ago. That incident effectively derailed any hopes he had to reclaim the No. 1 plate that Mees took off him the season prior. It also hindered him from rediscovering him winning form until late in the season. But once he did, he was nearly unstoppable, taking three wins in the final four races of 2018.

Smith reunited with the title-proven Crosley Brands/Howerton Motorsports Kawasaki effort for 2019, but he’s still looking to remind the field just how potent that pairing can be.

Meanwhile, in the Roof Systems AFT Singles presented by Russ Brown Motorcycle Attorneys class, Atlanta Short Track winner Dalton Gauthier, Daytona TT winner Jesse Janisch and reigning class champion Dan Bromley enter round three of the Roof Systems AFT Singles season ranked first through third, respectively.

Don’t sleep on American Honda-backed Mikey Rush. The former AFT Twins standout has made an admirably seamless transition to Roof Systems AFT Singles duty. He currently sits fourth in the standings and should only continue to gain speed as the season progresses.

Rush and his teammates, Cameron Smith and Cole Zabala, will be defending their sponsor’s home turf this weekend as they look to put Al Lamb’s Dallas Honda on the podium at its titular event.

Saturday’s Texas Half-Mile also marks the season opener for the 11-round AFT Production Twins championship. The series, which has been designed to help up-and-coming AFT Singles riders adapt to faster, more powerful twins machinery, boasts a stacked entry list this weekend.

Among the many notable riders competing is none other than Danny Eslick. A multi-time road racing national champion and Daytona 200 winner, Eslick is widely regarded as one of the sport’s most naturally gifted, exciting, and charismatic riders.

GAFFNEy, S.C. – Landon Cassill will return to JD Motorsports with Gary Keller to compete in the upcoming NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Talladega Superspeedway on April 27.

Cassill will take over driving duties of the No. 4 Flex Seal/Contec Chevrolet Camaro typically driven by Ross Chastain. Cassill previously spent 2013 to 2015 driving for JD Motorsports and also made three starts for the team last year.

“We are ecstatic to have Landon back in the seat for Talladega,” said team owner Johnny Davis. “He has always been considered one of the best drivers we had ever had in our cars in the time that he has spent driving for us, and I’m excited to see what we can accomplish with his wealth of experience on the Super Speedways.”

The Cedar Rapids, Iowa, driver has spent the bulk of his career racing for various teams in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series, and has one top-five and one top-10 finish in his career, both coming at Talladega. In his Xfinity Series career he’s earned one top-five and 12 top-10 finishes.

Chastain, who will drive the No. 10 Kaulig Racing Chevrolet Camaro at Talladega, is scheduled to return to JD Motorsports to drive the No. 4 Chevrolet Camaro on May 4 at Dover (Del.) Int’l Speedway.

For 16 teams, the Stanley Cup playoffs are in full swing. The other 15 look ahead to the 2019 NHL draft on June 21.

Since our first run through the first round, there has been plenty of movement. We still have the scouting combine, pre-draft team meetings and more ahead of us, so expect more shuffling as draft day in Vancouver approaches.

Let's see how the first round is shaping up with our second mock draft -- and the first post-lottery one -- of the year.

Note: This mock uses the draft lottery results for the opening and the reverse order of the NHL standings after that, alternating between the West and East for the final four picks. As you'll note, the Tampa Bay Lightning are still in the last spot, despite being on the brink of elimination. We'll have more mocks before draft time, but for now, we stick to regular-season point totals for the playoff team draft positions.

1. New Jersey Devils

Jack Hughes, C, U.S. National U18 Team (NTDP)

Adding Hughes could significantly change the dynamic of New Jersey's offensive attack. A one-two punch of Hughes and Nico Hischier would give the Devils a formidable duo for years to come. Landing the No. 1 pick should also be a nice enticement for Taylor Hall to hang around as he heads into the final year of his contract.

2. New York Rangers

Kaapo Kakko, RW, TPS (Liiga)

Kakko is a game-changer for the Rangers' rebuild. He'd be more of a cornerstone piece than any prospect currently in their deep system. He brings a scoring threat to the wing and can reach the NHL right away.

3. Chicago Blackhawks
