Below are the projected lineups for both teams based on the latest news leading up to the match....

Maxwell, wearing a black suit, entered the courtroom and hugged her lawyers before briefly sketching the courtroom artist who was drawing her. Prospective jurors got their first look at British socialite when Judge Alison Nathan began questioning to see if they can stay impartial in the case against Maxwell.

James, who celebrates his 35th birthday Dec. 30, is averaging 25.9 points, 10.6 assists and 7.4 rebounds per game this season. The three-time NBA champion and four-time MVP is showing no signs of slowing down in his 17th year in the league. Antetokounmpo, whose Bucks will face Los Angeles on Thursday, hailed his rival as someone he hopes to resemble late in his own career. “It’s crazy. Obviously, for me, that’s one of my goals to be able to play at a high level for the next 10 years, but he’s about to turn 35 this month and he’s moving like that, playing like that, and just playing smart,” Antetokounmpo told reporters....

New York coach Pat Shurmur told reporters Wednesday that the rookie quarterback’s ankle injury is “slightly less severe” than the one running back Saquon Barkley dealt with earlier this season. With the 2-10 Giants already eliminated from playoff contention, it’s possible Manning could play for the rest of the season while Jones’ ankle heals properly.

At 6-1, 200 pounds, Apple is known for his good length, foot quickness and ball skills. His size allows him to play physical, and his instincts led to 22 pass breakups and four interceptions during his two seasons as a starter. Apple was instrumental in helping Ohio State win the inaugural College Football Playoff Championship, and was key in the Buckeyes’ 12-1 season a year later. The Giants have missed the last four playoff seasons and hope that adding Apple to the roster will bolster a porous defense on the back end....
