With less than five weeks to go until the beginning of the end of the NBA season, we finally have a schedule and some important games to mark along with it.

After taking a hiatus, sports are now making their comeback. But you know what never went away? COVID-19. And in some places (we’re looking at you, Florida), it’s as bad as it’s ever been.

The moment we’ve all been waiting for has almost arrived: North American pro team sports will finally be back in action on Saturday, thanks to the NWSL. As they say, ladies first.

After an excruciatingly silly back-and-forth between the MLB and the MLB Players Association, they’ve finally kissed and made up. Which means baseball is coming back, baby!

As many leagues begin to walk the walk after talking the talk about social justice and racial equality, a troubling incident in NASCAR demonstrated just how much work needs to be done.

This week, NHL and Toronto Maple Leafs legend Darcy Tucker joins co-hosts Ellen and Steph to share his story. From playing in the NHL (where he literally took on an opponent’s entire bench by himself once), to how he thinks the NHL can be more inclusive to how he’s styling his hair during quarantine, Tucker shares it all.

Let’s quickly flash back to March 11th: one athlete, Rudy Gobert (pronounced GOH-BEAR) of the Utah Jazz, tested positive for coronavirus, and the entire sports world shut down. Today, dozens of players have tested positive, and the leagues are somehow going full steam ahead with their return-to-play scenarios, even in COVID-19 hotspots.

The rate of new COVID-19 cases hit a high in the US this weekend, with over 30,000 new cases reported yesterday alone. Turns out, it’s not just Donald Trump’s campaign staffers who are testing positive: quite a few athletes are among the count, too.

For weeks, NBA players have been debating whether returning to play will take momentum away from the protests surrounding George Floyd’s murder and the Black Lives Matter movement. Instead of simply talking about it, some WNBA players are getting sh!t done.

It’s been quite the week for GOAT gymnast Simone Biles. On Monday, she was named as a plaintiff in the lawsuit against USA Gymnastics (USAG). Then on Tuesday, she performed a triple-double dismount — a move never been seen before. Get that dirt off your shoulders.

The Black Lives Matter movement has found an unlikely but long-overdue ally in the sports world: NASCAR.

Sports are coming back. But, unfortunately, so are some athletes’ positive COVID-19 test results.
