Happy Monday, everyone. Who is ready to buckle up for another week? It was a tough weekend for two of the top teams in the Eastern Conference — the Philadelphia 76ers and Brooklyn Nets — so hopefully things for you were more on the Jon Rahm level. Rahm won the U.S. Open with two clutch putts in the final two holes and got to celebrate Father’s Day and his win with his son in hand. It was an awesome moment. As for what you may have missed out on, we have you covered. You can check out some of the latest headlines from around the web.
