Team Canada coach offers troubling Jamal Murray update, sure to anger Nuggets fans
Despite the 2-0 start in group play for Canada at the Paris Olympics, it’s safe to say Jamal Murray has been underwhelming.

Jake Cave hits tying homer in 9th, the Rockies beat the Angels 5-4 in 10 innings
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Jake Cave hit a tying two-run home run with two outs in the ninth inning and the Colorado Rockies scored on an error in the 10th to beat the Los Angeles Angels 5-4 on Thursday night. Cave homered off Hunter Strickland, the right-hander who is being used to finish off games after closer Carlos Estevez was traded to Philadelphia on Saturday. “You just want to get it to the next guy and hope somebody can put a run across, but you get to a 3-1 count and you tell yourself that this is the time to get my best swing off,” Cave said. “He left one center cut and that’s what (can) happen when they get behind.” Michael Toglia added a two-run home run for the Rockies, who have won consecutive games following a five-game losing streak. Colorado won a series for the third time in four tries since the All-Star break.
