NBA:

Bucks cut Lillard with extension clauses to sign Turner

On the evening of July 1, according to famous reporter Shams, the Bucks will cut 75 superstar Damian Lillard with extension clauses and defer his remaining $113 million in exchange for Miles Turner.

It is reported that Lillard was very surprised that the Bucks did not inform Lillard of the change in advance. Salary expert Yossi Gozlan said the Bucks will no longer be able to use extended terms for other players this season, and it will be difficult for them to share more salary in the coming season.

According to regulations, the total salary paid by the team through extended terms shall not exceed 15% of the salary cap for that season. The $22.5 million Lillard, who was cut by the Bucks using the extension clause, has reached 14.5% of the salary cap.

In the summer of 2023, in order to get Lillard, the Bucks sent away Holiday, Grayson Allen, the first round picks in 2029 and the first round picks in 2028 and 2030. But the Bucks and Lillard decided to sack Lillard after only two seasons, which means that the era of Lillard and Antetokounmpo's cooperation is over.

Lillard played for the Bucks for two seasons, playing in a total of 131 regular season games, averaging 24.6 points, 4.5 rebounds and 7 assists per game.

In the first round of this year's playoffs, Lillard suffered a torn Achilles tendon in the left leg and underwent repair surgery for a torn Achilles tendon on May 3. Shams reported at the time that Lillard could return during the playoffs of the 2025-2026 season, which would take about 8-10 months to recover.

After being cut by the Bucks, many teams have developed a strong interest in Lillard. According to sources, Lillard will spend some time deciding whether to sign a multi-year contract this offseason to join the new team, or choose not to sign a team and directly make a one-year standby to recover.

Zhu Lin was eliminated in the first round, and there was only one Chinese Golden Flower left

31-year-old Zhu Lin has been ranked seventh for the rank of protection and is also the fifth consecutive year that she has played in the Wimbledon women's singles competition. Last year, Zhu Lin entered the top 32 here and refreshed her best record at Wimbledon. However, due to the impact of injuries, Zhu Lin's current world ranking has fallen to 307th.

Kudmetova played in Wimbledon's women's singles game four times in two rounds, and stopped in the second round twice. She has won both of the two wins so far at Wimbledon, both of which have beaten players outside the top 100 in the world. The two sides have had two confrontations before and won one game each.

In the first set, both sides were in good service condition after the opening, but after the game was tied at 3:3, Kudmetova accelerated and won three consecutive games, thus winning the set with 6:3. It is worth mentioning that Zhu Lin missed the break points one after another without completing the break first when her opponent started the third game at 40:0.

In the second set, after Zhu Lin took the lead in protecting her first serve, Kudmetova won five consecutive games and firmly grasped the initiative, and finally won another set 6:2, thus defeating Zhu Lin in straight sets to advance to the second round of the women's singles.

So far, after two days of fierce competition, the first round of the five Chinese Golden Flowers ended. Yuan Yue and Zheng Qinwen both lost to their opponents in three sets and missed the promotion. Zhang Shuai and Zhu Lin lost in two consecutive sets and stopped losing to two sets. Only Wang Xinyu took the No. 15 seed Muhova to advance to the second round.
