Saturday Sports Update
Top left: The Blues have the city of St. Louis buzzing this spring! Tonight, the city will host its first Stanley Cup Finals game since 1970, with its team tied with the Boston Bruins at 1-1 in the best-of-seven series. The Blues will be shorthanded, though, with forward Oskar Sundqvist, who will serve a one-game suspension for tonight's Game 3 for delivering an elbow to the head of Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk.

The Warriors will be stretched even more if key bench player Andre Iguodala is not available for Game 2 in Toronto on Sunday. Head coach Steve Kerr said on Friday that Iguodala should be ready, while Durant will continue to miss out. Photo by USA Today
