Suns oust Warriors in the Final Game of the Play-In (111–96)

April 18, 2026

The Phoenix Suns secured the final playoff spot in the Western Conference on Friday night, defeating the Golden State Warriors 111–96 in a winner-take-all play-in tournament finale. Led by a stellar performance from Jalen Green, who exploded for 36 points and eight three-pointers, the Suns clinched the No. 8 seed and a first-round date with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Phoenix dominated early, jumping to an 18-point lead in the first quarter. While the Warriors clawed back to within five points by halftime, the Suns’ defense proved too much. Stephen Curry was held to just 17 points on 4-of-16 shooting as the Suns’ backcourt harassed him all night. Devin Booker contributed 20 points before being ejected late in the fourth quarter following a heated exchange with Draymond Green.

The loss ends Warriors’ season, while the Suns head into the postseason and will face the OKC Thunder in the 1st round of the Playoffs.

Aliyah Boston Inks Historic EPIC Deal with the Indiana Fever

April 18, 2026

Indiana Fever;

The Indiana Fever and Aliyah Boston have agreed to a new contract, with the center signing a new, multiyear agreement through the 2029 WNBA season. With the agreement, Boston becomes the first player in WNBA history to sign a deal under the newly-created Exceptional Performance on Initial Contract (EPIC) provision.

Indiana did not provide any financial details on the contract but ESPN’s Alexa Philippou reports that the deal is “a four-year, $6.3 million contract extension with the Indiana Fever, giving her the richest total salary in league history to date.” Boston will earn $1M this year, then 20% of the cap through 2029, which is approximately $1.77 million per year, for the final three years of her contract.

The new deal secures Aliyah Boston’s long-term future with the Fever, especially since Caitlin Clark is expected to receive a similar, if not larger, contract from Indiana.

Official Trailer of Street Fighter

April 17, 2026

Set in 1993, estranged Street Fighters Ryu (Andrew Koji) and Ken Masters (Noah Centineo) are thrown back into combat when the mysterious Chun-Li (Callina Liang) recruits them for the next World Warrior Tournament: a brutal clash of fists, fate, and fury. But behind this battle royale lies a deadly conspiracy that forces them to face off against each other and the demons of their past. And if they don’t, it’s GAME OVER!

Helmed by director Kitao Sakurai, Street Fighter is set to bring the battle from the arcade to the big screen with Hadoukens, roundhouses, and all your favorite characters.

Here’s hoping that it’ll be a better film than the 1994 Street Fighter featuring Jean-Claude Van Damme.

Official Trailer of Focker-In-Law

April 16, 2026

The circle of trust just got bigger. Focker-In-Law is in theaters this Thanksgiving.
______

This November, comedy icon and Emmy winner Ben Stiller and two-time Oscar® winner Robert De Niro reunite, joined by Grammy winner and Oscar® nominee Ariana Grande, in Focker-In-Law, a new chapter in the blockbuster Meet the Parents franchise.

Written and directed by John Hamburg, who co-wrote the three previous Meet the Parents films, Focker-In-Law is produced by Oscar® nominee Jane Rosenthal and Robert De Niro for Tribeca Productions; Ben Stiller and Oscar® winner John Lesher for Red Hour Films; Emmy winner Jay Roach for Delirious Media; and John Hamburg for Particular Pictures.

Loved the first film; the second and third are great, but the comedy is a little too much for me. It looks like the comedy in Little Fockers will be somewhere between the original film and the sequels.

Final 5-Mins of Golden State Warriors versus Los Angeles Clipper Play-in Game

April 16, 2026

Golden State caught fire collectively, shooting 15‑of‑20 from the field (75%) and 8‑of‑11 from three (72.7%) in the final frame, with Draymond Green sealing the win by coming up with two clutch steals down the stretch. After defeating the Clippers 126–121, the Warriors now head to Phoenix to face the Suns for the 8th seed and the final spot in the Western Conference playoffs.

Warriors move past Clippers lead by Horford, Curry and Green (126-121)

April 16, 2026

The Golden State Warriors completed a stunning 126–121 comeback victory over the LA Clippers in Wednesday’s high-stakes play-in tournament. Trailing by 13 in the fourth quarter, the Warriors ignited a 16–6 closing run and held Kawhi Leonard scoreless until the final 16 seconds of the game.

Steph Curry was sensational, scoring 35 points on 7-of-12 shooting from deep, becoming the oldest point guard in NBA history to record a 35-point game. While Curry provided the spark, Draymond Green anchored the defense with 3 points, 6 rebounds, 9 assists, and 4 steals—two of which came in the final frame. Green spearheaded a physical team effort that neutralized Leonard for nearly the entire quarter. Al Horford added 14 points, including three consecutive clutch triples down the stretch. This win keeps Golden State’s season alive; they now travel to Phoenix for a do-or-die matchup against the Suns for the 8th seed and face the defending champion Oklahoma City in the first round.

A’ja Wilson is staying in Vegas $5M Supermax for 3 years

April 16, 2026

That’s a no brainer for Las Vegas, Wilson is arguably the best player in the WNBA and I’m sure that $5M is just pocket change for the owners!

Andraya Carter and Shams Charania, reporting for ESPN;

Last season, Wilson became the first WNBA or NBA player to win the scoring title, MVP, Defensive Player of the Year and Finals MVP all in the same season. She averaged 23.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 2.3 blocks and 1.6 steals while shooting 50.5% from the field in 2025.

That’s a stats of a G.O.A.T. in the making!

Every Pick of Indiana Fever in the 2026 WNBA Draft

April 15, 2026

Indiana Fever will be the No. 10 in this year’s 2026 WNBA Draft and from the 1st to 3rd round, they made the best out of what’s available with their pick.

Below are the picks of Indiana Fever in the 2026 WNBA Draft;


1st round – Raven Johnson from South Carolina, she’s famous for being waved by Caitlin Clark during the 2022 Final Four game between Clark’s Iowa’s Hawkeyes and South Carolina.

Stat-wise, Johnson is a 5’9″ guard, who has improved her outside shooting since “that game” against Clark and Hawkeyes in the Final Four. In her final collegiate season, Johnson posted career-highs across several categories:

  • Points Per Game: 9.9
  • Assists Per Game: 4.0
  • Rebounds Per Game: 4.0
  • Steals Per Game: 1.5
  • FG%: 42.3%
  • 3P%: 39.8%

It’s funny how after what has happened between the two, Clark and Johnson are now teammates.

2nd round – Justine Pissott from 6-foot-4 forward out of Vanderbilt. Justine Pissott from 6-foot-4 forward out of Vanderbilt. She is the first Vanderbilt player to be drafted into the WNBA under fifth-year Commodore head coach Shea Ralph. In her last year in College, Pissott had a career year in 2025-26, putting up 11.1 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 0.9 blocks per game, all career-bests.

She will be a great addition to the Fever and playing along side Caitlin Clark will be a great stretch big with her career 40% in the 3-point line at Vanderbilt, 9th-best in school history.

3rd round – Jessica Timmons a 5-foot-8 guard from the Alabama Crimson Tide from the University of Alabama, she averages 16.3 ppg, 4.5 rpg, 2.3 apg and 39.4% from the 3-point line.

As the 40th draft pick, she will most likely be at the end of the roster and will be a 3rd stringer at the guard position and may see limited playing time.

Roblox Partners with DICT and CICC to Launch New Child Safety Features in the Philippines

April 15, 2026

Following a high-level meeting with the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) and the Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center (CICC), Roblox has announced a major safety initiative tailored for Filipino users.

The platform is introducing two new account types—Roblox Kids and Roblox Select—designed to bolster online protection for children through age-appropriate content and verified security measures.

Key safety measures include:

  • Automatic Placement: Users are sorted into accounts based on verified age.
  • Restricted Communication: Chat is disabled for those under 9, while older children have access to filtered chat limited to peers and “Trusted Friends.”
  • Enhanced Parental Controls: Filipino parents can now block specific games and manage chat settings.

DICT Secretary Henry Aguda and CICC Usec. Aboy Paraiso highlighted a new “green lane” agreement, allowing parents to report grievances or harmful content directly via Hotline 1326. While the government commends Roblox’s commitment to “Digital Bayanihan,” officials emphasized that online safety remains a shared responsibility. They urged parents to remain vigilant in monitoring their children’s digital activities to ensure a secure and positive environment for their development.

Roblox Introduces New Age-Based Accounts and Expanded Parental Controls for Users Under 16  

April 15, 2026

By David Baszucki, Founder and CEO of Roblox;

We’re introducing two new age-based accounts for younger users on Roblox: Roblox Kids for users ages 5 to 8 and Roblox Select for users ages 9 to 15*. When they roll out in early June, these accounts will more closely align content access, communication settings, and parental controls with a user’s age. We’re also establishing an ongoing selection process for games available to users under 16.

This update will bring age checks, account-level defaults, content ratings, ongoing moderation, and expanded parental controls together into a unified framework for younger users. Based on our selection criteria, we believe age-checked users under 16 will have access to the vast majority of their favorite games at launch. Age-checked users 16 and older will not see any change to their Roblox experience.

With these two new age-based accounts for younger users, Roblox is putting social media giants to shame, specially if those social media networks are basically “sweeping this social-media-is-addicting-to-kids topic under the rug.”

With these two new age-based accounts for younger users, Roblox is putting social media giants to shame—especially those that continue to “sweep the issue of social media addiction under the rug.”

As a father of children who play Roblox, I find this to be an essential safeguard alongside our existing parental controls. It provides much-needed peace of mind, particularly as they explore the wide variety of games the platform offers.

First look at Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse will be theaters in June 8th, 2027

April 14, 2026

Marvel just released a number of screen capture of the upcoming Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and announced that the latest Spider-Man animated film will be released on 8th of June 2027. It’s been reported that this will be the final film of Miles Morales’ Spider-man.

The images provide a striking glimpse into the aftermath of Across the Spider-Verse, highlighting the tension as Miles Morales navigates the dangerous reality of Earth-42. Of all the images that Marvel released, the stills that stands our is the confrontation between Miles and Spider-Man 2099 (upper right image), Miguel O’Hara, while another captures a poignant moment between a younger Miles and his father, Jefferson Davis (upper left image).

Neither Marvel nor Sony has mentioned if they will release a trailer for the film. Considering it is more than 14 months until its release date, we may not see a trailer anytime soon.

Yugatech: VinFast Philippines offers EV rentals from ₱1,000/day for TNVS drivers in PH  

April 14, 2026

Anton Gabriel, writing for Yugatech;

VinFast Philippines is rolling out a new program that allows ride-hailing drivers to rent electric vehicles (EVs) for as low as ₱1,000 per day, aiming to make EV adoption more accessible for the transport sector.

The initiative targets Transportation Network Vehicle Service (TNVS) drivers and operators, offering flexible rental and ownership options for models under its Green lineup, including the Herio Green and Limo Green.

This is terms of the offer.

Under the rental program, drivers are required to pay an upfront deposit and choose a contract duration. Longer-term plans are available, with daily rental rates starting at around ₱1,000, depending on the agreement.

This is a great program, especially for TNVS drivers and operators looking to switch from ICE to EV. It serves as an excellent starting point. A number of TNVS drivers/operators I’ve spoken with earn an average of 3k to 5k a day. They often mention that being a TNVS driver gives them a lot of freedom — essentially a much better work-life balance, unlike their previous experiences in the corporate world or as an OFW.

WNBA Free Agency: Sophie Cunningham Resigns with the Indiana Fever

April 13, 2026

The Indiana Fever have officially announced the return of fan-favorite guard Sophie Cunningham for the 2026 season. After being acquired via trade from the Phoenix Mercury in 2025, Cunningham quickly cemented herself as a cornerstone of the Fever’s roster and a locker-room leader.

Despite a shortened 2025 campaign due to an MCL tear in the final month of the regular season, Cunningham’s impact was undeniable. She stepped up significantly during Caitlin Clark’s injury-related absence, providing elite floor spacing and veteran grit. Her statistical contributions were stellar, as she shot:

  • 47% from the field overall.
  • 43% from 3-point range (ranking 3rd in the WNBA).

General Manager Amber Cox praised Cunningham’s “infectious energy” and competitive spirit, noting that her elite perimeter shooting creates vital opportunities for her teammates. Cunningham expressed her excitement to return to Indianapolis, citing a desire to finish what the team started during their “special” 2025 run. Now fully recovered, the sharpshooting veteran is expected to be a primary catalyst in Indiana’s 2026 championship pursuit, much to the delight of a fanbase she has dubbed the best in the league.

X spins-off DM into separate messaging app called XChat

April 12, 2026

X, the service formerly known as Twitter, has announced that the company will launch a standalone messaging app called XChat for iPhone and iPad on April 17.

The announcement did not provide any additional information about the service but the app description in the App Store says “Chat with anyone on X in a private, focused space built for conversation. No ads. No tracking. Fully end-to-end encrypted”, which more or less the same features of the current messaging app in the space. XChat is basically the spin-off X/Twitter’s DM and the web version of XChat is available at https://x.com/i/chat/.

Anime: Daemons of the Shadow Realm, No Spoiler Initial Reaction!

April 10, 2026

Based on the manga created by Hiromu Arakawa (Fullmetal Alchemist), Daemons of the Shadow Realm is set in a world where certain humans command mighty supernatural duos called Daemons. It is the birthright of “the children who sunder day and night”—twins Yuru and Asa—to rule over these powerful entities. Separated from a young age and unaware of the truth of their birth, brother and sister must fight to make their way back to each other, claim their birthright, and save the world…

It’s the Spring 2026 anime season on Crunchyroll, and I just watched the first episode of Daemons of the Shadow Realm. All I can say is that the “3-Episode Rule” may not even apply here! The producers went all out on the premiere and hooked me immediately.

Daemons of the Shadow Realm is definitely an anime to keep an eye on, and it’s great that we’re getting a full 23-episode first season. Catch it now on Crunchyroll!

WNBA unveil Full List of 2026 Unrestricted Free Agents, Restricted Free Agents, Reserved Players, and Core Players  

April 9, 2026

WNBA free agency for the 2026 season is officially underway, following a condensed timeline necessitated by the new Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) negotiations. While teams and players are currently in the middle of negotiations, the WNBA has officially released the full list of 2026 Unrestricted Free Agents, Restricted Free Agents, Reserved Players, and Core Players for each team.

This expanded list of designations guides each franchise as they transition from the Negotiation Period (April 8–10) to official Signings (April 11). These movements represent a massive financial leap for the players; for the first time, top-tier stars like A’ja Wilson and Sabrina Ionescu are expected to sign deals worth $1.4 million annually, a nearly five-fold increase from the previous maximum.

The entry of expansion teams, the Toronto Tempo and Portland Fire, has also sparked a bidding war for “Reserved” talent as these new organizations look to build competitive rosters around the veterans they secured in the expansion draft.
