    导出博客文章ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman was preparing to take his usual
    spot in the starting lineup, only to be kept out by a bookkeeping error.Ive got
    to ask how that happened, Michigan coach John Beilein said. The scout coach puts
    in the book, and theres never been an issue with that.The lineup mistake was
    about the only error by the Wolverines, who rolled to a 98-49 win over
    Maryland-Eastern Shore on Saturday. Derrick Walton scored 16 of his 21 points in
    the first half. Abdur-Rahkman had seven points and a career-high 10 assists.It
    was the first time all season that Abdur-Rahkman was out of the starting lineup,
    and Duncan Robinson was there in his place.I guess they mixed it up and put
    Duncan, Abdur-Rahkman said. I thought it was kind of funny.Abdur-Rahkman was
    subbed in to replace Robinson after 46 seconds.The Wolverines (9-3) jumped out
    to a 19-2 lead, and Michigan was shooting well over 80 percent -- both overall
    and from 3-point range -- after a layup by Zak Irvin made the score 35-13 with
    7:33 remaining in the half.The Wolverines eventually fell off that torrid pace,
    but Michigan was still able to set a season high in scoring for the second
    consecutive game. The Wolverines beat Central Arkansas 97-53 on Tuesday
    night.Throughout that whole game, I kept telling the guys, `Lets go win this
    possession, as if it were the game-winning possession in our conference,
    Maryland-Eastern Shore coach Bobby Collins said. We didnt get the stops that I
    wish we would have gotten.Bakari Copeland led the Hawks (1-10) with 15
    points.Michigan made its first seven shots from the field and led 19-2 after a
    3-pointer by Walton. It was 49-22 at halftime.Robinson had 17 points for the
    Wolverines, and D.J. Wilson added 16 -- including a couple dunks early in the
    second half. Moe Wagners one-handed, breakaway dunk put Michigan up 66-31.Wagner
    had nine points on 4-of-4 shooting, and hes 39 for 52 (75 percent) over his last
    seven games.BIG PICTUREMaryland-Eastern Shore: The Hawks were coming off a
    week-long break after a loss at Central Florida last Saturday, but the time off
    didnt lead to a good start in this game. This was the third game of a six-game
    stretch away from home.Michigan: This is a much easier stretch in the Wolverines
    schedule after they took on the likes of Virginia Tech, Texas and UCLA earlier.
    None of the Michigan players went 30 minutes Saturday, and the Wolverines left
    no doubt about their superiority with their fast start.They shot lights out,
    Collins said. Thats a good team. When theyre hitting like that, I think theyre
    going to beat a lot of teams.UNSELFISHMichigan had a season-high 28 assists on
    34 baskets.Were a close-knit team, so you always want to hit your open friend or
    buddy, and you want to see them make shots, Abdur-Rahkman said. I think that
    contributes to more assists.HIGHLIGHTThe Michigan bench loved it when walk-on
    Fred Wright Jones made a 3-pointer late in the game for the first points of his
    career. Wright-Jones was a manager and practice player last season before
    Beilein had him suit up for the regular-season finale. Hes played in eight games
    this season.UP NEXTMaryland-Eastern Shore: There wont be as much time off before
    the next game for the Hawks -- at American on Monday. Saturdays game began a
    stretch of four in six days for Maryland-Eastern Shore.Michigan: The Wolverines
    will be heavily favored again Thursday night at home against Furman in their
    final game before the start of Big Ten play.---www.collegebasketball.ap.org and

    John Tavares, Thomas Vanek and Kyle Okposo were also being counted on to slow

    VEGAS -- Five months after being awarded an NHL franchise, Las Vegas expansion
    team finally has a name. The Vegas Golden Knights will be the citys first major
    professional sports team when they begin play in the 2017-18 season.Golden
    Knights owner Bill Foley made the announcement, alongside NHL commissioner Gary
    Bettman and team general manager George McPhee, in front of a raucous crowd
    outside the recently constructed T-Mobile Arena, the teams new home, located
    just off the Las Vegas Strip.We now have an identity, Foley told ESPN.com just
    before the announcement. My whole idea was to create a logo and a name that was
    powerful that would epitomize the warrior class. The Knights are the epitome of
    the warrior class, the top of the line in terms of defending the realm,
    defending the unprotected. This is all part of the culture we want to create
    with the hockey team.The NHL announced that Las Vegas would be home to the
    leagues 31st team after a board of governors meeting in the city on June 22. Not
    only will the Golden Knights be the NHLs first expansion team since the Columbus
    Blue Jackets and Minnesota Wild during the 2000-01 season, but they also will
    become the first of the four major North American professional sports leagues to
    have a team in Las Vegas.Foley said he went with Vegas instead of Las Vegas for
    the NHL team name because that is how most locals refer to the city.Jerseys for
    the Golden Knights will not be for sale until mid-February, at the earliest,
    Foley said. But other items, such as T-shirts, hats, sweatshirts, polo shirts,
    shorts and gym bags, were sold outside the arena shortly after the announcement
    was made on Tuesday night.I think the day upon which you begin to create the
    identity of a franchise is the day that fans can begin to have their emotional
    connection to the club, Bettman told ESPN.com. And while five months ago to the
    day we announced that the expansion was going to be a reality, I think today
    will mark it feeling real ... if youre a fan and you can get a T-shirt or a hat,
    this then begins to signify the beginning of fandom.Shortly after the name and
    logo for the Golden Knights was revealed outside of T-Mobile Arena, which rests
    just behind the Monte Carlo and New York-New York Hotel and Casino, hotels up
    and down the Strip were scheduled to reveal signs welcoming the Golden Knights
    tto Las Vegas.ddddddddddddhe team has already sold more than 14,000 season
    tickets and most of the luxury seats inside the 17,500-seat T-Mobile Arena for
    next season. While Foley expects games to be popular destinations for traveling
    fans, he also believes that 85 percent to 90 percent of the crowds during the
    regular season will be made up of season-ticket holders.Foley, a graduate of the
    United States Military Academy, had originally wanted to call the team the Black
    Knights, after Armys athletic nickname, but he encountered some resistance.
    Foley was already the chairman of the board for Black Knight Financial Services
    and the lead investor in Black Knight Sports & Entertainment, the consortium
    he started along with the Maloof family, which owns the team. He settled on
    three finalists: Golden Knights, Silver Knights and Desert Knights, before going
    with Golden Knights in August and working with Adidas on the logo, which was
    completed in late October.While the Golden Knights are about 11 months away from
    playing their first game, the team is slowly beginning to take shape. Foley
    hired McPhee to be the teams first general manager in July. McPhee was the
    Washington Capitals general manager from 1997 to 2014. Kerry Bubolz was hired as
    team president in October after 13 years with the?Cleveland Cavaliers?and the
    Quicken Loans Arena organization. And last month, the team broke ground on a
    state-of-the-art practice facility in Summerlin, Nevada -- a suburb located
    about 15 miles from the Las Vegas Strip and where the teams offices are
    located.The Golden Knights, which will be the eighth team in the Pacific
    Division and the 15th team in the Western Conference, will acquire their first
    players on June 21, when their selections from the expansion draft are
    announced. Las Vegas must select one player from each of the 30 existing teams.
    Two days later, the team will select their first rookies in the NHL draft. They
    are guaranteed to have no lower than the sixth overall pick in the draft and
    will own the third pick in each subsequent round.This whole process has really
    been a whirlwind, Foley said. Well be playing games before you know it.ESPN.com
