Utah Jazz head coach Will Hardy may have saved LeBron James from a slew of talking points as the Los Angeles Lakers hung on for a narrow 105-104 win on Sunday night in Salt Lake City. Hardy called a timeout with his Jazz down one and guard Collin Sexton streaking to the basket with two seconds left. On the ensuing out-of-bounds play, Sexton had his shot blocked, and Utah tumbled to 4-16. The Lakers, led by rookie head coach J.J. Redick , narrowly improved to 12-8. James went 0-9 from three as his stretch of poor shooting continues. He clanked a potential dagger from deep the possession before Sexton missed a shot that would have put the Lakers up four. Los Angeles Lakers consider reunion with $90million star in blockbuster NBA trade Anthony Edwards goes on fiery Minnesota Timberwolves rant as early-season crisis goes on The 39-year-old Lakers forward has not connected from three in his last three games, missing all 15 of his attempts. He only made three of 11 the two games prior, bringing his combined tally over his last five contests to 3-for-26. Notable X DPT Dr. Evan Jeffries offered a simple solution to James's recent struggles: "tired legs." The four-time MVP has yet to miss a game this season and is up averaging 35.2 minutes per game. Now, claiming Hardy bailed out James from embarrassment is not a perfect science - Lakers star Anthony Davis was lurking near the rim and could have comfortably swatted the ball deep into the Utah rafters.

At 4-16, they own the second-best lottery odds in the race for talented Duke freshman Cooper Flagg. Still, Stu Lantz on the Lakers broadcast was in disbelief over the call. "Why would he call a timeout," he admonished. "I mean, Hardy was right there when they got the defensive stop and they look at—he gave the motion like to keep going! Then when they get in a position to attack he's running to midcourt to call a timeout." Lauri Markkanen led the way for Utah with 22 points. The former All-Star is averaging just 19.6 a game this season, a dropoff from the 23+ he scored each of the last two seasons. Davis led the Lakers in scoring with 33 points and added 11 rebounds. James had yet another double-double, scoring 27 points and sending out 14 assists - his 9.4 assists per game rank third in the NBA. James and the Lakers will look to continue their winning ways on Monday night when they face the Minnesota Timberwolves in Minneapolis./THIS NEWS RELEASE IS INTENDED FOR DISTRIBUTION IN CANADA ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES / All monetary amounts are expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Officers in Telford have issued a 48-hour dispersal order in response to an increase in antisocial behaviour in the Southwater area of the town centre. The order – effective from 7.40pm last night (Saturday, November 23) until 7.40pm tomorrow (Monday, November 25) - provides extra powers to the police to exclude individuals aged over 10 who cause antisocial behaviour. The dispersal powers can also be used to remove those committing crime and disorder not only when they have occurred or are occurring, but when they are deemed likely to occur and in any locality. Officers from West Mercia Police are acting in response to incidents of youths engaging in ASB in the Southwater area on Saturday evening. The section 35 Dispersal Order notice under the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime & Policing Act 2014 is for the mapped area of Telford town centre as seen below. READ MORE: Hit-and-run driver hunted as car 'deliberately' hit fans outside Villa Park after Premier League match Inspector Jodie Davies, of Telford Problem Solving Hub, said: “We having issued this dispersal due to reports of youths causing ASB in the Southwater area yesterday evening.

"They are there to help and to prevent any localised anti-social behaviour. Please approach the officers if you need to and they will happily assist in any way they can,” she said.West Ham: Aaron Wan-Bissaka 'has to defend better' says Julen Lopetegui after unlikely scoring run
NoneHimachal Pradesh Waqf Board on Friday presented in the district court an 18-year-old document that identified Latif Mohammad as the nominated president of the committee for the under-contention Sanjauli mosque here. This submission has been made as a result of a court order requiring clarification on Mohammad’s jurisdiction regarding his offer to demolish three unauthorized floors of the mosque, which is a contentious issue amongst members of the society. The court had on Monday directed the Waqf Board to file an affidavit stating in what capacity Latif Mohammad offered to demolish the three unauthorised floors of the disputed mosque. In its response, the Waqf Board submitted a letter from 2006 by which Latif Mohammad was holding the position of president in the mosque committee. Subsequently, Vishva Bhushan as counsel for the All Himachal Muslim Organisation (AHMO), said that this document is important because of points out the continuity of leadership by Mohammad, although its legitimacy of continuing beyond the statutory five years stipulated by the Waqf Act is ambiguous. According to the Waqf Act, the tenure of committee members is five years, he said. Latif told reporters, “The Waqf Board in its reply said I have been the president of the Sanjauli Mosque committee since 2006 and the Municipal Commissioners Court had also given notice to me in the capacity of president in September.” There have been calls from a section of locals for the demolition of the Sanjauli mosque. On September 11, ten people were injured during a protest against an allegedly illegal portion of the mosque. A day later, Latif Mohammad, and others, offered to demolish the mosque’s three “unauthorised” floors and sought the permission of the Municipal Commissioner. The legal battle escalated when after a protest by the Muslim community group led by Latif and other members of the mosque committee agreed to remove the “unauthorized structure” of the mosque and sought permission from the Municipal Corporation. This demolition was later permitted by the Municipal Commissioner’s Court on the 5th of October and was to be accomplished within two months. However, AHMO challenged this order hoping that the court would vacate it during the next hearing session, leaving the future of the mosque uncertain in doubt due to ongoing tensions between the communities. The next hearing on the matter has been fixed for November 30. ( With inputs from PTI)
