2018–19 Oregon Battle of the Books controversy, Controversial book choice
When the reading list for the Oregon Battle of the Books 2018-2019 season was announced, it was met with a variety of reactions. The committee responsible for selecting the books students must read in order to compete included the novel George by Alex Gino. The novel follows the struggles of a 10 year old transgender girl named Melissa in the fourth grade. Both the Hermiston school district and the Cascade school district chose not to compete in the Oregon Battle of the Books (commonly known as OBOB) that academic year due to the inclusion of Gino's novel. Few of the OBOB book choices have been controversial and many educators and school districts had varying reactions.

Cascade school district superintendent Darin Drill explained the district's choice to not participate in the OBOB competition that year. Drill stated that the district deemed the content contained in the novel as inappropriate for the 3rd-5th graders meant to read the book for the competition. Drill and the rest of the Cascade school board were concerned about certain themes within the novel such as the mention of pornography and the possibility for children to learn how to clear their search history. The statements made by the Hermiston school district and the Cascade school district explicitly stated they were not protesting the inclusion of the novel because of the main character being a transgender girl but because of the other content the book contained.

As the decisions made by the Hermiston and Cascade school districts spread, parents and OBOB committee members also commented on the situation. One parent expressed her frustration that parents had not been directly involved in the decision to leave the OBOB competition that year. Sara Hernandez, the parent of a student in the Cascade district, stated she was frustrated because the school board had made the decision without parent involvement and hadn't even allowed discussion but instead outright removed themselves from the OBOB competition.


2018–19 Oregon Battle of the Books controversy, Reactions to George
The administrative chair of the OBOB committee and a school librarian, Linda Fukasawa, released an email explaining how George was selected as one of the OBOB books and why the committee believed it was appropriate for 3rd grade to 5th grade children. Fukasawa continued to describe the committee's criteria for OBOB novels and stated George was chosen because it displayed diversity with a main character in the same age range as the children meant to read it for the OBOB competition.


2018–19 Oregon Battle of the Books controversy, Reactions to George
The author of the novel, Alex Gino, spoke with New York Daily News to release a statement about the meaning of the novel and why it was appropriate for children. Gino explained that they wanted to explore the theme of being young and queer, specifically young and transgender. As a genderqueer individual, Gino understands some of the struggles the main character Melissa faces throughout the novel and wanted to share that experience with children who are not typically exposed to media containing trans people. Gino also stated that the novel would not cause children to become transgender, but it might be able to comfort young trans kids and help their peers be more accepting of them.

2018–19 Oud-Heverlee Leuven season
Although deemed as potential candidates for promotion at the start of the season, OH Leuven was never in contention and was always closer to the bottom of the table than to the top. After missing out on winning the opening tournament, going out early against amateur team Dessel Sport in the Belgian Cup and several disappointing results in the closing tournament, English coach Nigel Pearson was sacked in January 2019 and replaced by the duo of Vincent Euvrard (manager) and Franky Vercauteren (sports advisor).


2018–19 Oud-Heverlee Leuven season
After the change, despite scoring more points, the team was not able to avoid the relegation play-offs, however with four wins out of six matches, the club avoided relegation in the end.


2018–19 Oud-Heverlee Leuven season, Transfers
The first transfer news regarding the 2018–19 squad came in March, when Mechelen announced that despite their relegation from the Belgian First Division A, Ivorian defender Mamadou Bagayoko would remain at the team. He was already on loan from OH Leuven but would transfer permanently at the end of the season. One month later, another player left for Mechelen, as winger Nikola Storm signed a deal with the club to transfer there permanently after his loan from Club Brugge to OH Leuven would come to an end at the end of the 2017–18 season.


2018–19 Oud-Heverlee Leuven season, Transfers
The month of May involved the first new reinforcements, as OH Leuven brought in two Belgian youngsters: Olivier Myny was signed from Waasland-Beveren while Jellert van Landschoot was loaned from Club Brugge.

2018–19 Oud-Heverlee Leuven season, Transfers
In June, with Samy Kehli and Elliott Moore, two players were kept that were on loan during the previous season. Kehli was signed permanently from Lokeren, while the loan deal of Moore was extended with one more season. On top of this, also two new players joined the club as French experienced defender Frédéric Duplus was signed from Lens, after already playing in Belgium for Zulte Waregem, White Star Brussels and Antwerp, followed by English youth international George Hirst from Sheffield Wednesday.


2018–19 Oud-Heverlee Leuven season, Transfers
Early July, both Thomas Azevedo and Geert Berben moved to Lommel, their former team. Azevedo was already on loan to Lommel during the second half of the previous season and became a free agent player after his contract with OH Leuven ended, while Berben had been on loan to Oosterzonen Oosterwijk and was now sold. Later that same month, two youngsters left the squad, as striker Din Sula (who had been out on loan to Lommel) was signed by Waasland-Beveren and Jordy Gillekens was loaned to the youth squad of Fiorentina.


2018–19 Oud-Heverlee Leuven season, Transfers
The only incoming transfer in July was that of Dutch striker Sam Hendriks, arriving from Go Ahead Eagles. Later that summer, two players signed for Belgian First Amateur Division teams as their contracts had ended: experienced midfielder Flavien Le Postollec signed for Deinze, while youngster Jordy Lokando, who had returned from a loan to Heist, now moved permanently to RWDM47.


2018–19 Oud-Heverlee Leuven season, Transfers
As was the case for the last few seasons already, OH Leuven was again active on transfer deadline day, signing no less than three players. While the interest of OH Leuven in French midfielder Redouane Kerrouche from Paris had been apparent already over the prior weeks and the signing therefore anticipated, the loan deals of youngsters Ahmed Touba (from Club Brugge) and especially Polish 14 times international Bartosz Kapustka (from Leicester City) to many came as more of a surprise.


2018–19 Oud-Heverlee Leuven season, Transfers
Finally, throughout the summer some players did not have their contracts extended or saw their loan deals come to an end. Youngsters Dico Jap Tjong and Godwin Odibo were released, Benjamin Bambi and Leo Njengo returned from loans to Heist and Dessel Sport respectively, but were placed at the OH Leuven reserves. The loan deal of defender Benjamin Boulenger from Charleroi ended and was not prolonged neither.


2018–19 Oud-Heverlee Leuven season, Transfers
During the 2018–19 winter transfer window, with the team suffering in the league while having a large squad, several transfers were expected on both incoming and outgoing side. The first transfer was however only announced mid-January and concerned a loan deal of Leo Njengo, who had been playing for the reserves so far this season and was given playing time with Belgian First Amateur Division-side Heist. Two incoming signings followed just after that, with central defender Sascha Kotysch and striker Thomas Henry. While Kotysch arrived from Sint-Truiden, the transfer of Henry was surprising as he was signed from direct opponents Tubize in the fight against relegation.


2018–19 Oud-Heverlee Leuven season, Transfers
The final transfers of the 2018–19 season all happened in the last two days before closing of the transfer window. First another striker was brought into the squad with Yanis Mbombo, coming from Excel Mouscron. No mention was made whether it concerned a loan deal or a permanent move, only that Mbombo had signed a contract until the end of the season.


2018–19 Oud-Heverlee Leuven season, Transfers
On transfer deadline day, OH Leuven got rid of four strikers, first sending youngsters Jo Gilis and Daan Vekemans out on loan to Eendracht Aalst, followed by Dutchman Sam Hendriks who returned to his home country after just half a season, to play out on loan for Cambuur. In the final hours, 2016–17 club top scorer Esteban Casagolda was sold to league competitors Roeselare.

As announced in 2017, the PGA Championship was moved from August to May on the weekend before Memorial Day, starting in 2019.

It was also believed that the PGA Tour wished to re-align its season so that the FedEx Cup Playoffs would not have to compete with the start of football season in late-August. Consequently, The Players Championship was moved from May back to March for the first time since 2006.

However, the 76ers would trade Bridges to the Phoenix Suns (thereby returning that selection from their 2012 Steve Nash trade back to them) in exchange for the Miami Heat's unprotected 2021 first round pick and the 16th pick of the draft, which became shooting guard Zhaire Smith from Texas Tech University.

Despite starting out the previous season as a less-than-highly regarded prospect, Smith grew his game to be one of the more highly regarded players of the season, as well as a key reason for Texas Tech's journey into the Elite 8. In 37 games played for Texas Tech (21 of which he started in), he averaged 11.3 points (on .556 overall shooting and a .450 three-point percentage), 5 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.1 steals, and 1.1 blocks per game, which resulted in him earning spots on both the Big 12 All-Defensive Team and Big 12 All-Newcomer Team.

Next, with their original first round pick at #26, Philadelphia selected shooting guard Landry Shamet from Wichita State University.

During that season, Shamet averaged 14.9 points (on .489 shooting percentages with a very good .442 three-point percentage), 5.2 assists, 3.2 rebounds, and 0.7 steals in 31.7 minutes per game throughout 32 games played and stated.

As for their second round picks, all of their original selections there would be traded. With the 38th pick (which became point guard Khyri Thomas from Creighton University), Philadelphia traded that selection to the Detroit Pistons in exchange for two future second round picks. A selection later, the 76ers traded the German small forward Isaac Bonga to the Los Angeles Lakers in exchange for the Chicago Bulls' 2019 second round pick and cash considerations.

Finally, with their last two second round picks (which became power forward Ray Spalding from Louisville University and Greek combo forward Kostas Antetokounmpo (brother of player Giannis Antetokounmpo) from Dayton University respectively), they would trade both of those second rounders to the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for Dallas' original last second round pick, which was Southern Methodist University point guard Shake Milton at the 54th pick.

Throughout his time at Southern Methodist, Milton earned an honor for each season played there, with an All-ACC Rookie Team spot being acquired in his freshman year, and two All-ACC Second Team spots acquired during both his sophomore and junior years respectively. During his last season there, Milton recorded 18 points (on .449 overall shooting percentages with a very good .434 three-point percentage), 4.7 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 1.4 steals, and 0.6 blocks in 36.4 minutes per game throughout 22 games played and started before ending his season prematurely with a hand injury.

The 2018–19 Phoenix Suns season was the 51st season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), as well as their 26th season at the Talking Stick Resort Arena. They finished with 19 wins to 63 losses, the franchise's worst regular season record since the inaugural season 1968–69.

The Suns started the season with a new head coach, signing former assistant coach Igor Kokoškov to a three-year deal on May 2, 2018. After winning the first overall pick in the 2018 NBA draft, the Suns picked Deandre Ayton, a Bahamian center from the University of Arizona. They also gained the draft rights of the tenth overall pick, Mikal Bridges, through a trade involving the Philadelphia 76ers, thus recovering the final pick they received from first trading Steve Nash to the Los Angeles Lakers back in 2012.

During the 2018 NBA free agency period, the Suns also acquired some key players from the Houston Rockets the previous season with Trevor Ariza on July 1 and Ryan Anderson and rookie De'Anthony Melton nearly two months later on August 31. But after failing to sign a starting-caliber point guard during free agency, general manager Ryan McDonough was fired before the regular season began on October 8. He was replaced by former Suns' player James Jones and Trevor Bukstein on an interim basis throughout the entire season; Jones was eventually named the permanent general manager after the end of this season, with Bukstein returning to his initial assistant general manager role going forward.

Entering the draft, the Suns had just two first-round picks and two second-round picks. Their first pick would be their own pick, which became their first ever number one pick in franchise history after 50 seasons. It came as a result of having the second-worst record in franchise history, with only their inaugural season being worse.

The Suns were guaranteed just the Miami Heat's first-round pick this year due to a 2015 trade involving the brothers Dragić, with both Zoran and Goran Dragić being traded to Miami in a three-way trade including the New Orleans Pelicans in exchange for the rights to John Salmons, Danny Granger, the Heat's first-round pick this year, and Miami's completely unprotected 2021 first-round pick.


2018–19 Phoenix Suns season, Off-season, Draft picks
Near the conclusion of the previous season, the Suns had a chance to also receive the Milwaukee Bucks' first-round pick as well, as that was projected to be included alongside Greg Monroe and a second-round pick in order to offload Eric Bledsoe, who no longer wanted to be with the Suns. However, despite Miami winning more games against Milwaukee that season, the Suns would not gain Milwaukee's first-round pick this season. However, the Suns still retained the 16th pick from the Heat, alongside their 1st pick, up until draft night.
