NBA Star Tyrese Haliburton Diagnosed With Shingles

The current NBA season has been a difficult one for point guard Tyrese Haliburton and the Indiana Pacers. Haliburton's Achilles injury at the end of last year's NBA Finals has kept him out for the entirety of the year, and the Pacers currently have the worst record in the Eastern Conference at 15-43.

Haliburton is staying on the sideline until the 2026-27 season, but even he isn't able to avoid the poor fortune that has affected his team this year.

The All-Star guard was recently diagnosed with shingles, and he'll need to stay away from his teammates for a number of weeks while he recovers.

Pacers Head Coach Confirms Star's Diagnosis

"It's a very painful thing," said Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle, who confirmed his player's diagnosis on Sunday evening. The Pacers played two games against the Washington Wizards on the road before heading back home to face the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday afternoon.

"He will make a full recovery, but this happened over the last few days," Carlisle added.

"He was meeting us in D.C. and had some odd symptoms and he came back here. That's what's happening with him. We certainly wish him a speedy recovery. It's a unique case and a unique situation, but I talked to him a few times and he's always in a good mood, so he'll get through it."

Shingles is caused by the same virus that causes chicken pox, and the two ailments produce similar symptoms. Itch and rash in concentrated areas of the body are common, with blisters typically developing afterwards.

Those suffering from shingles can also experience fever, headaches, sensitivity to light and fatigue.

Haliburton helped lead the Pacers to the NBA Finals last season, the franchise's first appearance in the championship round since 2000. During the playoffs, the former Iowa State point guard hit several clutch shots to lead the team to victory, putting together one of the most impressive playoff runs in recent memory.

Indiana defeated the Milwaukee Bucks, Cleveland Cavaliers and New York Knicks in the postseason, as Haliburton dueled against superstars like Jalen Brunson, Donovan Mitchell and Giannis Antetokounmpo. He nearly led the team to its first NBA title, pushing the eventual champion Oklahoma City Thunder to a decisive seventh game in the Finals.

Haliburton's Devastating Injury And Future Outlook

Haliburton tore his Achilles in the first quarter of that Game 7, a devastating injury that effectively ended Indiana's championship hopes. Haliburton will attempt to return next season, and the Pacers will look to show that this year's record is simply an aberration without the All-Star guard.

"My journey to get to where I am today wasn’t by happenstance, I’ve pushed myself every day to be great. And I will continue to do just that. The most important part of this all, is that I’m grateful," Haliburton said in a statement after undergoing surgery.

"I’m grateful for every single experience that’s led me here. I’m grateful for all the love from the hoop world. I don’t 'have to' go through this, I get to go through this. I’m grateful for the road that lies ahead. Watch how I come back from this. So, give me some time, I’ll dust myself off and get right back to being the best version of Tyrese Haliburton."

Due to ticket purchase restrictions, the February UK & Ireland Foo Fighters gigs cannot be resold. However, their other Take Cover tour tickets that previously went unsold can be purchased via resale.

You can buy tickets from a third-party reseller site, such as Vivid Seats, SeatGeek, and TicketNetwork.

Chiefs Star Hollywood Brown Shares Rondale Moore Texts After Tragic Death

Marquise "Hollywood" Brown, the wide receiver for the Kansas City Chiefs, revealed on X that he communicated with Minnesota Vikings receiver Rondale Moore shortly before Moore's tragic death.

Although his official cause of death is still under investigation and pending an autopsy, the police chief told reporters that authorities suspect Moore, 25, shot himself in his garage on February 21. That unleashed a torrent of heartbreaking posts from Brown.

"Bro ain’t no way brotha you just messaged me few hours ago," Brown wrote in one of the string of distressing posts. Brown and Moore previously played together on the Arizona Cardinals. Brown later moved on to the Chiefs, and Moore signed with the Atlanta Falcons before joining the Vikings. Moore suffered devastating knee injuries twice.

Hollywood Brown Addressed Rondale Moore in a Heartbreaking Message

In one of his posts, Brown communicated directly with the now-deceased Moore. "You wasn’t alone bro.. I told you I know how you feel," he wrote on February 21 as news broke of Moore's death.

Brown posted text messages between him and Moore from July and August. In those text messages, they discussed injuries.

I love you bro 🙏🏿 I always wanted to speak life into you fam pic.twitter.com/m0j40bBIZX

— Hollywood Brown (@Primetime_jet) February 22, 2026

According to NBC News, Moore "dislocated his right knee during training camp" for the Atlanta Falcons in 2024 and didn't see any playing time as a result. The Minnesota Vikings signed him in 2025, but he "blew out his left knee while returning a punt in their first exhibition game and spent another full season on injured reserve."

Moore "was so distraught after immediately realizing the seriousness of that injury that he slammed his hand down on a cart so hard the sound was audible throughout the stadium," NBC News reported. In the text messages, Brown urged Moore not to give up despite the injuries.

"Love you bro. I always wanted to speak life into you fam," he wrote.

Brown also shared posts written by other NFL players, including Raheem Mostert, who wrote, "Rest easy lil bro.. Rondale you were special." He shared a post by Las Vegas Raiders linebacker Jamal Adams, who shared a post from another page about one of Moore's knee injuries.

I’m not jumping to conclusions, but let me say this. Fans and media be quick to label a player “injury prone” We don’t choose to get hurt… sometimes shit just happens. Y’all don’t see the rehab, the pain, the mental drain it causes. That process can make you lose yourself. This… https://t.co/RBhIcNBwyh

— Jamal Adams (@Prez) February 22, 2026

"I’m not jumping to conclusions, but let me say this. Fans and media be quick to label a player 'injury prone.' We don’t choose to get hurt… sometimes s*** just happens. Y’all don’t see the rehab, the pain, the mental drain it causes," Adams wrote.

"That process can make you lose yourself. This s*** is real. No matter how much support you get, you still gotta fight that battle alone. Prayers up for Rondale Moore and his family. He was a baller, no question."

JJ Watt also offered a tribute to Moore. "Can’t even begin to fathom or process this. There’s just no way. Way too soon. Way too special. So much left to give. Rest in Peace Rondale," Watt wrote on X.

Eric Dane's Wife Rebecca Gayheart Shares Heartfelt Message to Fans

Actor Eric Dane's wife Rebecca Gayheart shared a message to fans and supporters Sunday, three days after Dane's death at 53 due to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Dane and Gayheart wed in 2004 and were married for over 13 years before she filed for divorce in February 2018. In March 2025, Gayheart filed to dismiss the divorce after seven years of separation due to Dane's ongoing illness.

'There aren't enough words...'

On her Instagram story, Gayheart shared a picture of several framed photos of herself, Dane and their children, along with some words for those who have her family's back right now.

"I am so blown away by the outpouring of love and support," she wrote. "There aren’t words to express our gratitude. You are truly holding us up during this difficult time.”

When Dane passed away Thursday afternoon, he was surrounded by Gayheart, their daughters Billie and Georgia and others friends, according to a statement shared by the family.

"Throughout his journey with ALS, Eric became a passionate advocate for awareness and research, determined to make a difference for others facing the same fight," the message said in part.

"He will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered always. Eric adored his fans and is forever grateful for the outpouring of love and support he’s received. The family has asked for privacy as they navigate this impossible time.”

Dane sends final message to daughters

Months before his death, Dane recorded his final words as part of Netflix's Famous Last Words series, with the episode released upon his death.

At the end of the special, Dane shared his last message to his daughters, Billie, 16, and Georgia, 14.

"Billie and Georgia, these words are for you," he began. "I tried. I stumbled sometimes, but I tried. Overall, we had a blast, didn’t we?

"I see you now playing in the ocean for hours, my water babies. Those days, pun intended, were heaven. I want to tell you four things I’ve learned from this disease, and I hope you don’t just listen to me. I hope you’ll hear me."

Dane also urged his children to "cherish every moment," find love in their lives and "find your people and allow them to find you."

Netflix Has Quietly Canceled Four Shows This Year

Netflix is the most popular streaming platform in the world, thanks in large part to its massive library of original shows, series, movies, specials, and documentaries. However, the unfortunate reality is that not all of those originals are successful.

With such a massive number of originals, Netflix often has to make some hard decisions regarding the future of some fan-favorite shows. Unfortunately, for many fans, those difficult decisions have led Netflix to cancel four of its original shows this year alone.

Alice in Borderland

Alice in Borderland is a Japanese dystopian thriller based on the manga by Haro Aso. It follows a gamer and his friends after they are transported to an abandoned, parallel Tokyo and forced to compete in dangerous, sadistic games in order to survive.

The series emerged as a fan-favorite show through the first two seasons and racked up 25 million views in its third season. However, it will not continue.

While Netflix never officially confirmed that Season 3 was the final season before its release, fans of the show received some disappointing news in the streaming giant’s “What We Watched: The Second Half of 2025” engagement report as Netflix announced that the third season was indeed the final season, quietly canceling the show.

The Abandons

Following the success of Yellowstone, many streaming services tried their hand at Western-style shows. The Abandons marked Netflix's attempt at the genre, following two rival matriarchs battling for supremacy in 1850’s Washington.

However, despite a surge in interest shortly after its release, the show will not receive a second season. After a drastic drop-off in viewership and some very unfavorable critical reviews, Netflix announced the show's cancellation just a month after it originally premiered.

The Vince Staples Show

While The Vince Staples Show was a critical success through its first two seasons, the show will not be returning for a third season.

The show is a surreal, semi-autobiographical comedy-drama that follows a fictionalized, slightly famous version of rapper Vince Staples navigating daily life. While it was a hit with critics, earning a 94% score on Rotten Tomatoes, it was quietly canceled by Netflix this year.

The decision was likely linked to its relatively low viewership numbers, as Deadline reported that the show never charted on Netflix’s Weekly Top 10 and that it ranked just No. 1,446 on Netflix’s Second Half of 2025 viewership.

Terminator: Zero

Set in 1997 Tokyo, Terminator: Zero followed a soldier named Eiko who was sent from 2022 to protect Malcolm Lee, a scientist developing "Kokoro," an AI intended to rival Skynet.

The show was a hit with fans and critics who had been clamoring for more since it was released back in 2024. However, creator Mattson Tomlin confirmed last week that the show had been quietly canceled by Netflix due to poor viewership.

"It was cancelled. The critical and audience reception to it was tremendous, but at the end of the day, not nearly enough people watched it. I would’ve loved to deliver on the Future War I had planned in seasons 2 and 3, but I’m also very happy with how it feels contained as is,” he wrote in a post on X.

More Shows Ending

While these shows were canceled rather unceremoniously, there are a few other beloved Netflix series that will be coming to a planned end in 2026.

In addition to these four shows, Netflix has announced that several more shows will officially end in 2026. Unlike these series, however, they will receive much more official endings with their stories completed.

BMW's Fastest Cars Won't Use A Manual Transmission For Much Longer

For so many car enthusiasts, driving a car with a manual transmission is a distillation of their passions for all things automotive. Remove the human element, and the facts are pretty simple: stick shifts are slower, less economical, and more difficult to use than automatic transmissions. Moreover, they're hard to justify in today's automotive climate for a litany of reasons, as BMW M's CEO, Frank van Meel, points out. According to van Meel, there simply won't be a way to justify them soon.

van Meel: Another manual will be "quite difficult"

BMW

Speaking to CarSales, van Meel told the outlet that at least from an engineering standpoint, the stick shift just "doesn't really make sense." He assured listeners the brand will try its hardest to keep the manual around for a few more years, but beyond that, things get tough. "From an engineering standpoint, the manual doesn’t really make sense because it limits you in torque and also in fuel consumption," said Van Meel.

"It’s going to be quite difficult in the future to develop completely new gearboxes because the segment in the market is quite small, and the suppliers are not so keen on doing something like that," he continued. "So we’re still happy with the manuals we have and we plan to keep them for the next couple of years, but in future, probably it’s going to be more difficult to keep the manuals alive, especially in the next decade."

Time and technology are the killers of the manual transmission

BMW

Frankly, hardcore stick shift users couldn't care less about reduced power outputs; stick shifts have long been inferior to today's automatics. Emissions, though, are another matter entirely. The US may be well on its way to removing just about every major emissions standard for production vehicles, which could mean stick shifts continue here, but brands that make cars for numerous markets, as BMW does, have to meet much broader global emissions standards to maximize the number of markets they can sell cars in. It's a simple case of the most stringent emissions requirements, usually coming out of the EU, meaning the end of the inefficient manual transmission.

The end of the manual will be twofold, as well. This isn't a skill that people need today. Most cars now use automatic transmissions, and no one wants to work a clutch in traffic. Take rates might be high for models like the M2 (more than 50%, in fact), but those people are largely Millennials or older. The next generation of car enthusiasts likely won't grow up around a manual-powered car, either because it's been legislated away or because the odds are simply stacked against them as the number of available stick shift cars on the market dwindles.
