Trump poses for photo with Raiders stars Maxx Crosby and Gardner Minshew in Las Vegas
Three Las Vegas Raiders players posed for a photograph with Former President Trump Friday.
Defensive end Maxx Crosby, quarterback Gardner Minshew and wide receiver Alex Bachman posed with Trump in a furnished room in Las Vegas in a photo posted on X by The Daily Caller’s Henry Rodgers.
Crosby, one of the Raiders’ biggest stars, expressed his fandom of Trump shortly after a July 13 assassination attempt on the former president in Butler, Pennsylvania. Crosby referred to Trump as the GOAT in a post on X that day. Crosby has spent his entire career with the Raiders.
Minshew is a newcomer to Las Vegas, having just signed with the Raiders in the offseason. Minshew was named the team’s starting quarterback by head coach Antonio Pierce.
Bachman, a former New York Giant, was projected to contend for a spot on the active roster as a backup or the team’s practice squad but still managed to work his way into the photo with Trump.

Trump was in Nevada Friday for a campaign event, where he touted his “no tax on tips” policy. He also thanked former 2024 opponent Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for his endorsement after Kennedy ended his bid as an independent candidate.
DOES KENNEDY’S DEPARTURE FROM THE 2024 RACE HELP TRUMP MORE THAN HARRIS?
“We just had a very nice endorsement from RFK Jr. Bobby. And I’ll be talking about that. We’re heading out right after this. We’re going to be going to Arizona. We’ll be talking about that and a lot of other things too, but I just want to thank everybody, and I want to thank Bobby. That was very nice. That was really very — that’s big. He’s a great guy, respected by everybody,” Trump said at the event.
The former Democrat spoke a couple of hours before Trump was scheduled to hold a campaign event in nearby Glendale, Arizona. The Trump campaign on Thursday announced the former president would be joined by a “special guest,” which sparked speculation of a Kennedy endorsement.

Las Vegas has long been one of the cities in which Trump’s businesses have held economic and cultural prominence. In 2008, Trump International Hotel Las Vegas officially opened as the tallest building in Las Vegas. Trump partnered on the 1,282-room, non-gaming project with Las Vegas casino owner and friend Phil Ruffin. The developers have closed more than $400 million in unit sales since the luxury high-rise opened in 2008, property records show, according to the Review Journal.
Nevada has voted for a Democrat in every presidential election since 2008. However, Trump has held a polling lead in the state for much of the 2024 campaign cycle. Since 1980, the presidential candidate who carried Nevada has won the election 10 out of 11 times. The only exception was in 2016, when Trump lost the state to Hillary Clinton but won the election.
The Raiders open the season Sept. 8 in Los Angeles against the division rival Chargers.

Prep talk: Loyola lacrosse team is making noise with domination
When it comes to high school lacrosse, Loyola has one of its best teams this season and that’s reflected in the margins of victories this past week — 29-0 over Sierra Canyon and 28-1 over Crespi.
“It’s very unusual,” coach Jimmy Borell said of the few goals allowed.
Much of the credit goes to the defense and to Andrew Goldman, a junior who handles face-offs. He’s at 92.4% winning face-offs for the 5-1 Cubs, whose only loss came to San Francisco’s St. Ignatius 12-11.
The top goal scorer has been Tripp King, the reigning Southern Section player of the year and North Carolina commit. He has 22 goals and 17 assists Senior Chase Hellie (Tufts commit) and Everett Rolph have been leading the defense, making things easy for goaltenders Will Russo and Garrett Flynn.
Loyola is set to take a trip to Florida and the University of Notre Dame to play top East Coast teams starting Saturday.
This is a daily look at the positive happenings in high school sports. To submit any news, please email eric.sondheimer@latimes.com.

Longtime Blackhawks great and broadcaster Troy Murray dies at 63, team says
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Former Chicago Blackhawks standout Troy Murray, who transitioned to the broadcast booth after his playing career, has died, the team announced Saturday. He was 63.
The Blackhawks said he died earlier in the day.
It’s unclear where Murray spent his final moments. Murray publicly disclosed his cancer diagnosis in August 2021. While he revealed he had been undergoing chemotherapy, details about the type of cancer he was fighting were kept private.
Murray, affectionately known as “Muzz,” continued to appear on Blackhawks broadcasts during his cancer battle, though his appearances eventually tapered off. He stepped away from the booth entirely ahead of the 2025-26 NHL season.

For more than a decade, Murray starred at center for the Blackhawks. CEO Danny Wirtz said the loss of one of the franchise’s most respected leaders left the team “deeply heartbroken.”
“Troy was the epitome of a Blackhawk so far beyond his incredible playing career, with his presence felt in every corner of our organization over the last 45 years,” Wirtz said.
“During his long and hard battle with cancer, it was often said that Troy didn’t have any ‘give up’ in him,” Wirtz added. “While our front office won’t be the same without him, we will carry that spirit forward every day in his honor. We’ll miss you, Troy.”

After 12 seasons with the Blackhawks, Murray finished his NHL career with the Colorado Avalanche, winning the 1996 Stanley Cup.
After spending the following season with the International Hockey League Chicago Wolves, Murray stayed in the city to begin his broadcasting career in 1998. Murray was also named the president of the Blackhawks alumni association.
“Troy Murray is remembered for not only his contributions on the ice, but for his professionalism and humility and dedication to the city of Chicago,” the team said in a release. “He leaves behind a lasting legacy within the Blackhawks family and the broader hockey world.”

From Calgary, Alberta, Murray topped 20 goals five times, but he also became known for his defensive play. In 1986, he became the Blackhawks’ first player to win the NHL’s Frank J. Selke Trophy, the award for the league’s top defensive forward.
Murray finished with 197 goals in 688 games over two stints with the Blackhawks and also played for the Winnipeg Jets, Ottawa Senators and Pittsburgh Penguins. Overall, he had 230 goals in 915 career games.
