Stevens is a talented player who is only 27 years old, so he could draw interest from teams across the league as the season progresses.

The Pistons finished the preseason with a 3-2 record in five games.

Most recently, they defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers by a score of 108-92.

Ole Miss Football’s Lane Kiffin Named to National Coaching Award Watch List

Ole Miss Football’s Lane Kiffin Named to National Coaching Award Watch List

The Ole Miss Rebels received a number of midseason honors on Thursday.

First, wide receiver Tre Harris was placed on the midseason watch list for the Maxwell Award, given annually to college football’s best player. Then, defensive tackle Walter Nolen and linebacker Pooh Paul were named to the Bednarik Award watch list, an honor that recognizes the best defender in the country.

It looks like head coach Lane Kiffin needs to get in on the fun too.

Kiffin was named to the Bobby Dodd Coach of the Year Midseason Watch List on Thursday, marking one of 20 coaches to receive the award and one of six from the SEC. This award is given annually to a coach who “extends success on the stage while emphasizing the importance of scholarship, leadership and integrity.”

The Kiffin’s Rebels haven’t had the start to the year they were hoping for, but they maintain an overall record of 5-2 as they bounce back from this bye week. Ole Miss entered the year with College Football Playoff aspirations, and while those hopes still exist, there is little to no room for error down the road as the Rebels would likely have to win to get in the field .

Still, Kiffin has taken Ole Miss to new heights under his five years at the helm. The Rebels have won 10 regular-season games twice (2021, 2023) and also posted a program-best 11 wins in a single season last year. Ole Miss has been to two New Year’s Six bowls, and the NIL world around the Rebels has grown tremendously and helped assemble this talented squad in Oxford.

However, a 1-2 mark in the SEC is something that leaves a bad taste in the mouths of Kiffin and his team, and they will look to get back on track next Saturday at home against Oklahoma. Kickoff is scheduled for 11 a.m. CT and the game will be televised on ABC or ESPN.

Elizabeth Olsen just wore practical dress boots to the airport

Elizabeth Olsen just wore practical dress boots to the airport

As all frequent flyers know, there is a hierarchy when it comes to airport attire. Cozy, comfortable knit on top and stiff, tight denim on the bottom. The same applies to the range of shoes. (Some shoes are better at this task than others.) While some celebrities opt for the most impractical airport shoes imaginable—I’m looking at you and your leggings-heels hybrid, Victoria Beckham—others choose an equally stylish but far more appropriate approach to flying style.

Actress Elizabeth Olsen, who falls into the latter category, arrived at JFK Airport yesterday wearing simple but practical pull-on ankle boots.

Since I had to take off my shoes to go through the body scanner almost every time I went through security, this topic is very close to my heart. But in the winter months, you’ll probably need a lot more protection than skinny ballet flats. In all my years of flying, I’ve learned that pull-on ankle boots are the best thing for any fall/winter airport moment. This practical boot trend is easy to put on and take off, with no awkward buckles, zippers, or laces to slow you down, and in my opinion even beats strappy sandals and heeled Mary Janes.

These boots pair perfectly with fluffy cashmere socks and will prevent you from walking barefoot through the airport when you inevitably have to take them off.
