The state Gaming Commission this past week authorized Indiana casinos and mobile sports wagering operators to offer betting lines on seven Winter Olympic events.

This wasn’t typical for the Bulls, and it was especially abnormal for DeRozan. The three-time All-Star bailed out the Bulls in the final minutes of several close games. He still scored eight of his 27 points in the final quarter Friday to help the team stay close, but his last-minute misses highlighted the fact DeRozan can’t be counted on to play savior every night. When other options couldn’t step up, the Bulls failed to close.

Well before that blocked punt, the 49ers’ Jimmie Ward blocked a 39-yard field-goal attempt from Mason Crosby on the final play of the first half, preventing the Packers from extending their lead to 10-0. The Packers also allowed Samuel to return the second-half kickoff 45 yards, setting up the 49ers’ first field goal.

The Bengals intercepted Ryan Tannehill three times, setting up two of McPherson’s four field goals. Luke Wilson picked off Tannehill with 20 seconds left at the Bengals 47. Joe Burrow hit Pro Bowl rookie receiver Ja’Marr Chase with a 19-yard pass, then the Bengals ran twice to set up McPherson for the win.

“We just gave it to Isiaih Mosley, that’s pretty much handled all our shooting concerns,” Missouri State coach Dana Ford said. “He did a fantastic job getting to his sweet spots and playing off two feet. Our guys did a good job getting it to him. They knew he had a hot hand and instead of trying to do other things, we just kind of rode the way with him.”

And in the final months of 2021, global envoys spent two weeks in Glasgow, Scotland, to agree to measures targeting greenhouse gas emissions. Some said they were disappointed with the results, which include “phasing down” coal power, opportunities for carbon trading and financial incentives; while others, such as U.S. climate envoy John Kerry, said it put the planet closer “to avoiding climate chaos.”

A 26-year-old man was also shot and is in critical condition at Mount Sinai Hospital, said Michelle Tannehill, a spokesperson for the Chicago Police Department. The girl was taken to Stroger Hospital where she was pronounced dead, police said in a media notification log.
