LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A Kentucky court has postponed pro golfer Scottie Scheffler’s appearance on charges he injured a police officer and disobeyed commands outside the gates of Valhalla Golf Club as the venue hosted this year’s PGA Championship.

Scheffler, who was handcuffed and briefly jailed on Friday, had been due in court Tuesday, two days after finishing in the top ten at the PGA. But a judge postponed the court date until June 3, according to a statement Monday from Jefferson County Attorney Mike O’Connell.

“Today, over the objection of Jefferson County Attorney Mike O’Connell, the District Judge presiding in the case of Mr. Scheffler granted the defendant’s attorney’s motion to continue Mr. Scheffler’s arraignment from May 21 to June 3 at 9 a.m.,” the statement said. “Our office continues to gather information in the case.”

Scheffler faces four charges, including felony assault over injuries a Louisville police officer suffered during the encounter.

Officers at the scene were investigating a tournament volunteer’s death after he was hit by a bus outside the golf course when Scheffler arrived.

He was driving a credentialed PGA courtesy car when an officer said he “refused to comply and accelerated forward, dragging” the officer to the ground, according to an arrest report. Video at the scene showed Scheffler in handcuffs, a surreal image for the best male golfer in the world and the winner of last month’s Master’s tournament.

Scheffler’s attorney, Steve Romines, has said the case is a misunderstanding and the golfer never disobeyed any officer’s orders. A telephone message seeking comment was left for Romines on Monday.

Scheffler got out of jail and to the course in time to play the second round and shot a 66. He fell out of contention for the tournament with a 73 on Saturday — his first round over par since last August. He closed with a 65, tying for eighth place.

When the Magic selected Arkansas guard Anthony Black with the No. 6 overall pick in last year’s draft, it wasn’t entirely clear where or how he would fit into Orlando‘s plans as a rookie in the NBA.

Did Jamahl Mosley’s squad really need another young guard? Black was their third one drafted in the first round in the last four years.

Soon enough, however, Black not only saw prominent playing time on the court but quickly turned into Orlando’s starting point guard for a portion of the season.

It’s why on Monday the Magic guard received consideration for the 2023-24 NBA All-Rookie Team.

As Markelle Fultz missed 27 games between early November through early January due to a left knee injury, Black found himself thrust into an important role playing alongside regulars such as Paolo Banchero, Franz Wagner and Jalen Suggs.

In fact, Black ended up making 33 starts in 69 regular season games while scoring in double figures seven times and eclipsing 20-plus points twice.

Black received one second-place vote and was one of 12 additional rookies to receive votes beyond those selected to the First and Second All-Rookie teams.

Spurs forward-center Victor Wembanyama, the 2023-24 Kia NBA Rookie of the Year, and Thunder forward-center Chet Holmgren were unanimously selected to the All-Rookie First Team. Both players received First Team votes on all 99 ballots from a global panel of sportswriters and broadcasters.

Joining Wembanyama and Holmgren on the All-Rookie First Team were Hornets forward-guard Brandon Miller, Heat forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Warriors guard Brandin Podziemski.

The NBA All-Rookie Second Team consisted of Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II, Rockets guard-forward Amen Thompson, Jazz guard Keyonte George, Oklahoma City guard Cason Wallace and Grizzlies forward GG Jackson II.

Black averaged 4.6 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 16.9 minutes during his nearly 70 appearances. He ranked tied-17th among all rookies in assists.

He shined on defense recording at least one steal 24 times and two-or-more steals seven times, including a career-high 4 steals on Dec. 26 at Washington. A length guard at 6-7, he recorded at least one blocked shot 18 times and two-or-more blocks three times.

The media voting panel selected five players for the NBA All-Rookie First Team and five players for the Second Team at any position. Players received two points for each First Team vote and one point for each Second Team vote.

Troy Renck: A day later, hearts remain in throats, fists remain in a ball. The frustration and disappointment with the Nuggets’ season-ending defeat is palpable. There is no shame in losing to a team as talented as the Minnesota Timberwolves. But the Nuggets did not lose. They choked. No NBA team over the last 25 years has ever squandered a 20-point lead in a Game 7. Worse, the Nuggets were at home, where they have been dominant the past two seasons. It’s hard to think of a more crushing defeat. Maybe the 2012 Broncos falling to the Ravens and Joe “Cool” Flacco? Or Denver collapsing at home to the expansion franchise Jacksonville Jaguars in the divisional round in 1996? So, with emotions still raw, I ask the question: Was Sunday night the most crushing loss in Colorado pro sports history?

Sean Keeler: Joe Flacco! Mark Brunell! Too soon, my man. Too soon. The Broncos are woven so deeply into this town’s soul, those wounds cut deeper. Always will. But Sunday night? Sunday night was epic. In all the wrong ways. The ’96-97 Broncos never had a second-half lead against the Jags. The ’12-13 Broncos, who scored at will, never led by 20 versus the Ravens. (Or, in fact, by double-digits.) Broncos playoff losses will always hurt longer. But a Game 7 that plays out like that? Oh, it hurts more. Brother, it burns.

Troy Renck: Recency bias makes it hard not to argue the Nuggets’ loss is the worst. If Denver gets any offensive contribution from Aaron Gordon or Michael Porter Jr., they win. But for me, the 1996 Broncos’ playoff collapse was more crushing. That team was loaded and hosting a Jaguars team in its second year. Jacksonville owned a 9-7 record and was 1-7 on the road during the regular season. This was supposed to be the season John Elway won his first ring. Inexplicably, Mark Brunell outplayed him, erasing a 12-point deficit while shredding the Broncos defense.

Keeler: There’s a circle of Hades for Broncos Country in which Jimmy Smith’s touchdown runs on a continuous loop, the crowd gasping as DB Tory James stretches, then flails in the end zone at a near-perfect strike from Brunell on the fade. Nobody wants to go there. Nobody ever should. But Anthony Edwards stealing the ball from Jamal Murray at half-court at the end of the third quarter of Game 7, then beating everybody downhill for the two-handed slam, feels destined for a circle of its own now.

Renck: The 2012 Broncos loss remains fresh 12 years later because of the ending. While the Jaguars dominated Denver for three quarters, the Broncos were in control vs. Baltimore. All they had to do was not give up a Hail Mary. Instead, they did not bump receiver Jacoby Jones at the line of scrimmage and he raced by the defense as safety Rahim Moore misjudged Flacco’s bomb like a kid losing at Three Flies Up in the backyard. Viewed objectively, it was must-see TV, a track meet disguised as a football game. But there’s no denying it ruined Peyton Manning’s historic season, made worse by taking a knee in regulation and losing in overtime.

Keeler: In the words of Matt “Guitar” Murphy from the “Blues Brothers” movie, they’re all pretty bad. According to Pro-Football-Reference.com, there’s a reason that Jags upset still lingers. The Broncos were a 12.5-point favorite, and Jacksonville hadn’t scored more than 25 points on the road all season — until the playoffs. The Nuggs were five-point faves going into Game 7. So even if Sunday night isn’t Denver’s No. 1, it’ll probably stay lodged among the metro’s top 5 wounds forever.
