Detroit Lions trade David Montgomery to Houston Texans for draft pick — and more

The Houston TExans and Detroit Lions have agreed to a trade involving David Montgomery. Here's why the two sides decided to pull off this deal.

It has been a little over a month since Tommaso Ciampa surprised everyone by showing up on the January 28 episode of "AEW Dynamite," and the "Psycho Killer" has been very busy already.

Ciampa has one short reign with the AEW TNT Championship under his belt, which came to an end at the hands of Kyle Fletcher on the February 11 episode of "Dynamite," but a recent report from Fightful Select claimed that Ciampa could have actually shown up in AEW earlier than expected. Fightful reported that Ciampa was meant to debut the week prior to when he showed up, but his scheduled appearance at the January 21 episode of "Dynamite" was pushed back by a week due to the bad weather conditions, which in turn caused the January 24 episode of "AEW Collision" to be moved from Arlington, Texas to Orlando, Florida. However, that report has since been debunked by Fightful themselves.

Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select revealed that he was told by AEW sources directly that Ciampa couldn't have possibly been at the January 21 episode of "Dynamite" as he was still under contract with WWE at that time. By the time the January 28 episode rolled around, Ciampa was a free agent and could appear wherever he wanted. Sapp rounded off by apologizing for any confusion caused.

The "Psycho Killer" has also revealed in recent interviews that his AEW debut came together at the very last minute, stating that he was on a family vacation at a giraffe safari in Texas when the opportunity to appear on both "Dynamite" and "Collision" while AEW was in Texas came about. Ciampa got his presentation sorted, debuted on "Dynamite," continued his vacation, went to "Collision" and won the TNT Championship from Mark Briscoe, and still had enough time to finish his vacation before the following week's set of TV shows.

NEW YORK -- The Brooklyn Nets (15-45) are still looking for their first win coming out of the All-Star break, but they had a better chance of ending their losing streak with the Cleveland Cavaliers (38-24) missing Donovan Mitchell due to injury. Brooklyn came into the game dealing with two injuries to center Nic Claxton and rookie guard Egor Demin and it seems like the Nets could have used both of them.

The Netslost to the Cavaliers on Sunday 106-102 despite the fact that Brooklyn never trailed by more than 11 points as they had arguably their best effort since coming back from the break. Forward Michael Porter Jr. led the way for the Nets with 26 points and five rebounds while rookie forward Danny Wolf had 23 points and nine rebounds coming off the bench.

The main reason that the Cavaliers were able to emerge from this game with a victory was due to the efforts of guard James Harden (22 points, nine rebounds, eight assists) and center Jarrett Allen (20 points, six rebounds). Brooklyn was unable to come away from this game with their desired result, but they gave a much better effort. Here are three Nets takeaways from Sunday's loss to the Cavaliers:

Michael Porter Jr. Impacts Both Ends Of The Floor

Porter, who finished this game with 26 points (10-of-17 from the field, 5-of-8 from three-point land) and five rebounds, has clearly been the offensive engine for the Nets this entire season, but this game showed how impactful he can be on the defensive end when he's locked in. Porter used his length to get into the passing lanes and racked up three of Brooklyn's 10 steals against a Cavaliers team missing Donovan Mitchell.

Rookie Danny Wolf Impresses Off The Bench

Wolf has had some rough stretches this season while trying to provide some semblance of consistency off the bench as a rookie, but he has found his stride as of late. Coming off his best month of the season, Wolf had arguably his best game of the season against the Cavaliers after dropping 23 points, nine rebounds, and five assists in 27 minutes off the bench.

Grant Nelson Sparks Bench Unit

Nelson, playing in just his second game with Brooklyn after signing a 10-day contract with the club after spending the entire season in Long Island, came off the bench with quite the impact in his first stint on the floor. Nelson, who played 20 minutes for head coach Jordi Fernandez, dropped 11 points, four rebounds, one steal, and three blocks as he brought the kind of spark that the team is looking for in every game, especially one against a formidable opponent like the Cavaliers.

Arsenal achieved the earliest ‘St. Totteringham’s Day’ in history on Sunday, but the Gunners still have one more record to try and break in the final nine games.

As covered early last week, Arsenal had the opportunity to confirm their earliest-ever finish over Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday, excluding seasons where the two clubs didn’t play in the same division.

The Gunners needed either a win over Chelsea, or for Spurs to fail to beat Fulham. In the end, Arsenal didn’t need to wait until their 16:30 kick-off, with Spurs themselves losing to confirm their failure to finish above the Gunners.

That result made March 1st the new record earliest date of ‘St. Totteringham’s Day’, the day invented by Arsenal fans for when they confirm a finish above their north London rivals.

But it also meant the Gunners achieved the feat with 10 games to play, a joint record shared with the 2003/04 ‘Invincibles’ side. Sky Sports rounded up the previous earliest dates in the graphic below:

Arsenal still have one more north London rivalry record in their sights, with the Gunners having the chance to achieve their greatest-ever points difference over Spurs at the conclusion of the season.

The current record stands at 45 points, again achieved by the 2003/04 team playing under Arsene Wenger.

Mikel Arteta’s side sit 35 points clear of Spurs, having played a game more. So it’s still possible for Arsenal to finish 46+ points ahead of Igor Tudor’s side, but both teams will need to keep picking up the same kinds of results they have been for the remainder of the campaign.

Arsenal’s primary focus is obviously on winning trophies, and they’ll value a Premier League title far more than a record-breaking finish above Spurs.

But given the way to achieve those two ends is just to keep winning matches, there’s no harm in hoping for both.
