Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 23, 2026. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, NBA, Sports.

PORTLAND, Ore. – The Miami Heat’s five-game western swing has turned into a no-game western swing for center Kel’el Ware. After missing the first two games of the trip – Monday night’s loss to the Golden State Warriors and Tuesday night’s victory over the Sacramento Kings – Ware again was out for Thursday night’s game against the Portland Trail Blazers at Moda Center due to his hamstring strain. The Heat then announced two hours prior to Thursday night’s tip-off that Ware would return to Miami for additional treatment, leaving him unavailable for the final two stops of the trip – Saturday...

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 21, 2026. Posted in College Sports, Florida Gators, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Sports.

By MARK LONG GAINESVILLE — Rueben Chinyelu scored 15 points and tied his career high with 21 rebounds, becoming the first Florida player in two decades with four consecutive double-doubles, and the 16th-ranked Gators handled LSU 79-61 on Tuesday night for their fifth straight victory. Chinyelu matched David Lee’s double-double streak from 2005 as Florida (14-5, 5-1 Southeastern Conference) extended its home winning streak to 16. It was Chinyelu’s second 20-plus-board game of the season, making him the third player in school history to accomplish the feat. Urban Klavzar hit a career-high...

Ex-Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel finds next destination

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 21, 2026. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Dolphins, NFL, Sports.

In the end, it’s not the Miami Dolphins who land a Harbaugh, but former coach Mike McDaniel who lands with one. And we’ll now get to see the alternate universe where McDaniel coaches quarterback Justin Herbert, who was selected immediately behind the Dolphins’ pick of Tua Tagovailoa in the 2020 draft, before McDaniel arrived in Miami in 2022. McDaniel is reportedly expected to be hired by the Los Angeles Chargers as offensive coordinator, according to multiple national reports. The move unites McDaniel with Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh. Meanwhile, his brother, John Harbaugh, was one of the...

Famous tree-lined median on Las Olas needs to go, Fort Lauderdale commission agrees

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 21, 2026. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Local News, Social.

Say goodbye to those pretty black olive trees on Las Olas. The fate of Fort Lauderdale’s famous tree-lined median on its equally famous boulevard was sealed Tuesday night when the commission decided the median must go to make way for wider sidewalks and outdoor cafes. Today, four blocks of olive trees line the shops section of Las Olas. Construction will not begin on the long-planned redesign of those blocks for another two to three years. But eventually, the trees will be removed along with the median in a project that will cost at least $7.5 million. In the past, Mayor Dean Trantalis has...

Indiana’s Curt Cignetti rips refs for not flagging UM hits on QB Fernando Mendoza

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 20, 2026. Posted in College Sports, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Hurricanes, Sports.

MIAMI GARDENS — Halftime of the College Football Playoff national title game involved a coach interview atypical of what’s usually heard going into the locker room for intermission. Indiana coach Curt Cignetti used his air time with ESPN’s Holly Rowe to rip the officials for the hits the Miami Hurricanes defense was getting on Hoosiers quarterback Fernando Mendoza. “There’s three personal fouls on the quarterback on one drive that were not called. They need to be called because they’re obvious personal fouls,” an impassioned Cignetti said. “I’m all for letting them play, but when you cross...

Sharks spoil Matthew Tkachuk’s return by beating Panthers

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 20, 2026. Posted in Florida Panthers, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, NHL, Sports.

SUNRISE — Will Smith scored in his second consecutive game after missing a month because of injury, and the San Jose Sharks spoiled Matthew Tkachuk’s season debut by beating the two-time defending champion Florida Panthers 4-1 on Monday night in a game highlighted by a rare goalie fight. Florida’s Sergei Bobrovsky beelined out of his crease and all the way down the ice to take on San Jose’s Alex Nedeljkovic, who had inserted himself into a scrum in the corner with 14 minutes left. Fans chanted, “Bobby! Bobby!” and cheered the netminder nicknamed “Bob” who has backstopped the team to...

Heat apparently now driven by a Spoelstra super-secret stat; Herro does not travel

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 19, 2026. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, NBA, Sports.

MIAMI — As the Miami Heat took flight Sunday for Monday night’s start of their five-game western swing against the Golden State Warriors, the most intriguing aspect might have been what was under lock and key. Because no sooner did the Heat shock the league-leading Oklahoma City Thunder 122-120 Saturday night at Kaseya Center, than guard Norman Powell noted a super-secret stat that he said provided the motivation to bounce back from Thursday night’s discouraging home loss to the Boston Celtics from 19 up. “We have a goal in mind,” Powell said, “Coach gave us a stat from last year, and we...

Dave Hyde: Give Indiana the glass slipper; Miami wants the crown

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 19, 2026. Posted in College Sports, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Hurricanes, Sports.

It’s hard to say what’s stranger: The University of Miami actually plays in Monday night’s national championship game at Hard Rock Stadium or it has forfeited any rights of being a good and surprising story to the Indiana Cinderellas. All national odes are to Indiana coach Curt Cignetti for his good work. All praise is for a Hoosier team with no five-star recruits and only two, four-star recruits among its starters. Indiana, true to its sad-sack history, was a 100-to-1 betting longshot at season’s start to reach this championship game. “No one gave us a chance but us,” Cignetti said. Excuse...

Heat’s Spoelstra on Ware criticism, ‘I didn’t articulate that in a great way’; Ware calls kerfuffle ‘crazy’

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 18, 2026. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, NBA, Sports.

MIAMI — Two days after issuing a harsh rebuke to the approach of second-year center Kel’el Ware, Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra walked back some of those comments prior to Saturday night’s game against the Oklahoma City Thunder at Kaseya Center. “I didn’t articulate that in a great way, and that wasn’t fair to Kel’el,” Spoelstra said. “What I’ll say is I’m fully invested and invigorated about the opportunity to develop Kel’el, and our staff feels the same way and we’re gonna give him everything we have to make sure he becomes the player that he wants to become, that we need him to...

Hurricanes will be down a key offensive player for national title game

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 17, 2026. Posted in College Sports, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Hurricanes, Sports.

The Hurricanes will be missing key tight end Elija Lofton when they play Indiana in the national championship game on Monday. The sophomore tight end was listed as out on the initial availability report, which was released on Friday night. Lofton left the semifinal victory over Ole Miss with an injury and did not return. Other players ruled out for the game are linebacker Malik Bryant, wide receiver Daylyn Upshaw and defensive lineman Donta Simpson (who transferred to Missouri). Lofton has played in each Miami game this season, starting four of them and playing 451 offensive snaps. Lofton...
