🏀 Five things to know Monday

- The men's Final Four is set, and two spots remain in the women's tournament. And then there were four. No. 1 Michigan, No. 1 Arizona, No. 2 UConn and No. 3 Illinois are headed to Indianapolis, where two games stand between them and a national championship in the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament. The Wolverines are ever-so-slight betting favorites to win the whole thing, but each team has a case to climb to the mountaintop. Here's how to catch the action on Saturday. The women's tournament, meanwhile, has a little more Elite Eight business to settle. The regional finals will wrap up tonight when two teams join top-seeded UConn and UCLA in clinching Final Four berths.

- Tiger Woods was charged with DUI after a rollover car crash. Woods' fourth known car accident since 2009 occurred Friday when he clipped a trailer and his vehicle rolled onto the driver's side. There were no injuries. While a Breathalyzer test showed Woods did not have alcohol in his system, authorities said he showed "signs of impairment" and refused a urinalysis test. He was detained for eight hours.

- The Sun will relocate to Houston. The WNBA is coming back to Houston. The Fertitta family reportedly agreed to purchase the Sun for $300 million and move them from Connecticut to Texas, pending league approval. If the deal goes through, the Sun will play in Connecticut this season before moving to the Toyota Center in Houston and reviving the "Comets" team name in 2027. This is the largest sale of a franchise in league history and comes after the WNBA pushed back on then-Celtics minority owner Steve Pagliuca purchasing and moving the team to Boston.

- Bruce Cassidy is out as Golden Knights coach. With just eight games remaining in the regular season, Vegas announced a coaching change that it hopes will stop its slide. Stanley Cup champion

John Tortorella will take over ahead of the playoffs and is tasked with reinvigorating a squad that is a measly 5-10-2 since the Olympic break and has fallen to third place in the NHL's Pacific Division.

- The United States Men's National Team faced a reality check in their latest pre-World Cup friendly. The USMNT put on a concerning performance in their 5-2 loss to Belgium, surrendering five consecutive goals. The defeat emphasized a glaring lack of depth and suggested the Americans could be in for another rough showing Tuesday against Portugal. Plus, superstar Christian Pulisic is in the midst of a three-month goal drought. All of this comes just three months ahead of the World Cup and leaves players with just one final opportunity to show they belong on the squad.

⚖️ Do not miss this: NBA proposes anti-tanking measures

Tanking has been the talk of the NBA since the All-Star break, leaving Adam Silver with no choice but to implement measures to curb what appear to be intentional losses. After more than a month of brainstorming, the league reportedly proposed three potential solutions at its board of governors meeting last week that would change the draft lottery.

- Option A: 18-team lottery including seeds Nos. 7-15; flat odds for 10 worst teams; every pick drawn in lottery

- Option B: 22-team lottery including first-round playoff losers; order determined by cumulative two-year record; 25-win floor; top four picks drawn in lottery

- Option C: 18-team lottery including seeds Nos. 7-15; flat odds for five worst teams; drawing for top five picks; second drawing for next 13 picks

While the selected option should, on paper, curb the tanking crisis, it could also come with unintended consequences. Sam Quinn explained why each of them could backfire. In fact, he argued that tanking is simply an unfixable problem.

- Quinn: "The trouble here is that there is no objective definition of tanking. You know it when you see it. So the NBA would either have to invent strict, measurable criteria for tanking, or it would have to ask its fans to trust it to enforce subjective rules consistently. I just don't think either is possible."

In addition to the three options, the league could also implement harsher penalties for offending tankers. Under the proposal, Silver would have the power to take away a team's first-round pick, move that pick to the end of the lottery or first round and fine the team millions of dollars.
