DETROIT -- Stefon Diggs had one of his breakout games at Ford Field as a rookie. His second trip to the stadium apparently wont be as memorable.The Vikings wideout, who is listed as questionable for the teams Thanksgiving Day game with the Lions because of a knee injury, is unlikely to play Thursday, sources told ESPNs Adam Schefter.Diggs had not practiced all week because of the injury, and coach Mike Zimmer sounded unsure if the wide receiver would be able to play during his weekly radio appearance Wednesday.In the Vikings previous meeting with the Lions on Nov. 6, Diggs caught 13 passes for 80 yards in a loss.?His absence likely will mean more work for Adam Thielen, who caught five passes for 65 yards and a touchdown a week ago as the Arizona Cardinals used Patrick Peterson to shadow Diggs. Cordarrelle Patterson, who had four catches for 53 yards a week ago, also could become a bigger key to the Vikings offense.Minnesota and Detroit are tied for the NFC North lead at 6-4, but the Lions would assure themselves a victory in any division tiebreaker if theyre able to secure a season sweep with a win.

Stan Smith Adidas Dam Sverige . PAUL, Minn. Bismack Biyombo is on his way to Orlando to form a menacing new frontcourt with Serge Ibaka.The Magic and Biyombo agreed to a four-year, $72 million deal Saturday, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because a contract cannot be signed until Thursday.Biyombo is coming off a breakout year in Toronto. His numbers dont jump off the page -- 5.5 points, 8.0 rebounds, 1.6 blocks in a bench role -- but he started to show more of the athleticism, toughness and shot-blocking instincts that caused him to rocket up the draft board five years ago.Biyombo was the seventh overall pick in 2011, acquired by Charlotte in a draft-night deal with Sacramento. But he never was able to make a true impact in four years there, and some started to label him a bust.In this years playoffs, however, he was superb, helping the Raptors finally get out of the first round and advance to the Eastern Conference finals.When Jonas Valanciunas was injured against Miami in the conference semifinals, Biyombo started and was a force. He had 17 points and 16 rebounds in Torontos Game 7 victory. He followed that with 26 rebounds and four blocks in a Game 3 victory over Cleveland in the conference finals. He also had 14 boards and three blocks in Game 4.Toronto general manager Masai Ujiri and coach Dwane Casey were holding out hope that Biyombo might take a diiscount to remain with the Raptors after they helped him get his career on track.ddddddddddddBut with big money already committed to DeMar DeRozan, Kyle Lowry, DeMarre Carroll and Valanciunas, they were fully expecting Biyombo to price himself out of Toronto.Orlando acquired Serge Ibaka from Oklahoma City in a draft-night trade. He will play on one side of Biyombo, with promising small forward Aaron Gordon on the other.It remains to be seen what the Magic do with incumbent center Nikola Vucevic, one of the better offensive centers in the game over his five years in the league. He averaged 18.2 points and 8.9 rebounds last season.The Magic could keep Vucevic to give them a productive three-man rotation with Biyombo and Ibaka. Or they could try to trade him, continuing the makeover under general manager Rob Hennigan in a bid to better suit the roster to the style of new coach Frank Vogel.Its been a busy offseason for the Magic. They have retained swingman Evan Fournier, added free agents Jeff Green and D.J. Augustin, traded for Ibaka and brought in Vogel after coach Scott Skiles abrupt resignation.They have not been to the playoffs since 2012. Mixing defensive-minded veterans with a group of younger players like Gordon, Fournier and Elfrid Payton could change that. ' ' '
