WASHINGTON (AP) — As COVID-19 spreads uncontrolled in many places, a coalition of states, health care groups and activists is striving to drum up “Obamacare” sign-ups among a growing number of Americans uninsured in perilous times.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is trying to turn America's free and fair election into a muddled mess of misinformation, specious legal claims and baseless attacks on the underpinnings of the nation's democracy.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has identified China as the country's biggest foe and the Justice Department mirrored that emphasis over the last four years with a drumbeat of cases against defendants ranging from hackers accused of targeting intellectual property to professors charged with grant fraud.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Health inspectors fanned out to 29 businesses across San Diego County, threatening criminal prosecution and $1,000 fines for ignoring orders to avoid indoor activity during the coronavirus pandemic. Not just that, the businesses' names appeared on the county's website — unwelcome publicity as officials push companies to comply with tightening restrictions.

TOKYO (AP) — Japan's number of reported coronavirus infections hit a record high in numbers released Thursday, and the prime minister urged maximum caution but stopped short of calling for restrictions on travel or business.

The Warriors took Arizona point guard Nico Mannion with the No. 48 pick and Boise State shooting guard Justinian Jessup with the No. 51 pick in Wednesday’s NBA draft.

James Wiseman will swim upstream against history, because the Warriors have a dubious track record when it comes to choosing big men early in the NBA Draft.

TORONTO (AP) — The Toronto Raptors selected 6-foot-1 San Diego State guard Malachi Flynn 29th overall in the NBA draft Wednesday night.

On April 6, Tyrell Terry announced he would explore the possibility of entering the NBA draft, but retained the option of returning to Stanford. On July 31, he committed to going pro.

The Golden State Warriors picked center James Wiseman with their No. 2 overall pick Wednesday night, but the joy of that pick was overshadowed by the news of an injury to Klay Thompson.

When Wiseman gets to work with his new team, he won't be starting at square one with his most famous teammate

Anthony Edwards was taken by the Minnesota Timberwolves with the No. 1 pick Wednesday night in an NBA draft delayed multiple times because of the coronavirus pandemic.

New Warriors center James Wiseman attended Stephen Curry’s basketball camp in August 2018 and modeled his game after Hall of Famer Kevin Garnett.

The Warriors elicited a ton of social media attention Wednesday night, when they had the potential to make a franchise-altering transaction with the No. 2 overall pick. Some, however, were still focused on a Klay Thompson injury.

It bodes well for the future if hitters and their agents are serious about San Francisco as a destination point for big-time bats instead of simply using the Giants in negotiations to drive up the price.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California Gov. Gavin Newsom said this week he made a “bad mistake" by attending a friend's birthday dinner during a spike in coronavirus cases and promised to “own it" and move forward. But there was more to the story than he revealed.

The Warriors proposed a plan to bring back fans, one that would have been the first of its kind and could have marked a new phase in the return of spectators to sports in the U.S. But local officials rejected the idea — for now.

Wiseman figures to fit in nicely as a rim protector and pick-and-roll threat for the Warriors.

James Wiseman was selected after Minnesota took Georgia shooting guard Anthony Edwards at No. 1.

Warriors guard Klay Thompson suffered an apparent lower leg injury Wednesday, a league source confirmed with The Chronicle. He is undergoing tests to figure out the severity.
