Santa Ana winds increase:Any low clouds and fog will quickly give way to sunshine today as Santa Ana
winds develop. High pressure sliding into the Great Basin will send wind gusts to 50-60 mph in the northeast-
to southwest-oriented passes and canyons of the Los Angeles and Ventura County mountains, with gusts to
40 mph in some of the adjacent valleys. The winds and dry air will elevate the fire risk.
East Coast rain:Rain will spread along most of the East Coast and
combine with areas of fog in the Northeast to slow travel. Dry weather
will return to the Midwest and will also span the Southwest and Plains.
A few snow showers will be scattered over the Rockies.
Coach Nick Saban of
No. 1 Alabama tested pos-
itive for the coronavirus just
days before the Iron Bowl
with No. 22 Auburn.
Team physician Dr.
Jimmy Robinson and head
trainer Jeff Allen said in a
joint statement that the pos-
itive test came Wednesday
morning.
“He has very mild symp-
toms, so this test will not be
categorized as a potential
false positive,” the state-
ment said. “He will follow all
appropriate guidelines and
isolate at home.”
The Crimson Tide is set
to face its biggest rival Sat-
urday at Bryant-Denny Sta-
dium without the 69-year-
old, six-time national cham-
pion coach. Offensive coor-
dinator Steve Sarkisian, a
former head coach at USC
and Washington, will over-
see preparations and over-
see the team on game day.
Saban said he has had a
runny nose but no major
symptoms.
The day after Minnesota
canceled its game against
Wisconsin because of a rise
of coronavirus infections
within the program, star
wide receiver Rashod Bate-
man announced that he was
ending his season early out
of concern for his health and
with an eye toward his NFL
career. He is widely proj-
ected as first-round draft
pick. ... Oklahoma’s game
against West Virginia was
postponed from Saturday to
Dec. 12 after the Sooners
paused organized team ac-
tivities because of recent
positive COVID-19 tests and
contact tracing.
Women’s soccer player
Sarah Fuller practiced with
the Vanderbilt football
team, and coach Derek Ma-
son said she’s a good option
to be the Commodores
kicker Saturday against
Missouri.
Mason said his Commo-
dores (0-7) are having health
issues with their specialists.
Vanderbilt has declined to
comment on any players
who’ve either tested positive
for COVID-19 or are in quar-
antine. Junior Pierson
Cooke is three for seven on
field-goal attempts.
Texas State defensive
back Khambrail Winters
was fatally shot in San Mar-
cos, Texas, and two men

Clippers target

guard Bowman

Former Golden State

guard Ky Bowman was close

to finalizing a deal to join the

Clippers, a person with

knowledge of the situation

said.

A 6-foot-1 guard, Bow-

man signed a two-way deal

with the Warriors last sea-

son after going undrafted

out of Boston College.

With Golden State he av-

eraged 7.4 points with 2.9 as-

sists and 2.7 rebounds in 45

games while shooting 41%

overall and 30% on three-

pointers.

His defense is considered

strong. Bowman was waived

Nov. 20.

The expected signing,

first reported by the Ath-

letic, will bring the number

of Clippers players under

contract — including those

currently on the roster and

others whose free-agent

deals have yet to be made of-

ficial — to 13, with two spots

still available.

Indianapolis, which was

scheduled to host NBA All-

Star weekend this upcoming

season, will instead host the

NBA All-Star weekend in

2024, the league said.

Cleveland will play host

in 2022 and Salt Lake City

will do so in 2023, both of

those sites and years previ-

ously announced.

The league said “public

health conditions prevented

the Pacers, the NBA All-Star

Host Committee and the

NBA from appropriately

planning and executing

fan-focused All-Star activ-

ities in Indianapolis that

were envisioned for this Feb-

ruary.”

The league said it was

planning to revise this sea-

son’s All-Star agenda, with

those plans still to be an-

nounced.

Liam Clark,the younger

brother of former UCLA

gymnast Mercedez San-

chez who inspired the team’s

childhood cancer awareness

meet last season, died Mon-

day after a fight with acute

myeloid leukemia. He was

After a positive co-

ronavirus test put its week-

end matchup with Colorado

in doubt, USC’s hopes of

playing Saturday are still in-

tact as public health officials

gave the team clearance to

resume football practice

Wednesday.

Another USC football

player has since tested

positive, while five others

were identified via tracing as

close contacts and are in

quarantine. But those seven

players, none of whom was

identified by USC, presum-

ably won’t put the Trojans

below any minimum thresh-

olds set by the Pac-12.

That could still change

ahead of Saturday, when

USC is scheduled to play

Colorado at the Coliseum in

a matchup of undefeated

Pac-12 South foes. In a state-

ment, USC said that the

status of the game, sched-

uled to begin at 12:30 p.m.,

remains “unchanged at this

time, pending further test-

ing.”

Testing will continue ev-

ery day until then, with an

additional round of PCR

tests on tap for Thursday.

Even if USC is cleared to

play, it could be without

those seven players for the

next two games.

Safety protocols call for

anyone within close contact

of someone who has tested

positive to quarantine for 14

days. USC is slated to play

Washington State on Dec. 3

in a matchup that’s already

seen its kickoff time ad-

justed to 6 p.m. to adhere to

the 10 p.m. curfew in Los An-

geles County.

The Cougars have had

their own issues with

COVID-19. Nine Washington

State football players re-

mained in quarantine as of

Tuesday, leading the Pac-12

to cancel its rivalry matchup

with Washington this week.

Shortly after that game
