NBA: A federal judge in Los Angeles has refused to dismiss a lawsuit alleging Knicks Derrick Rose and two friends drugged and gang-raped a woman in 2013. The woman, a former lover who is seeking $21.5 million in damages, contends the three men drugged her drink at Rose's Beverly Hills, home and then raped her the next morning at her apartment.

Rose and the other defendants claim the woman consented to the sex and even buzzed them into her apartment. NHL: A judge has ruled against a co-owner of the Predators in his bid to keep his lawsuit against the franchise in a Tennessee court and allowed the case to go back to the NHL for arbitration.

Horse racing: Haskell Invitational (in N.J.). NBC: WAVY fPt WWBT fl2) team player was equivalent to $14,475, based on a six-month playing period. That meant many of the players needed to have other jobs to make ends meet Some players worked two club seasons, one at home in Australia and the other in the United States with the National Women's Soccer League, meaning they played year-round. The players were asking for a salary increase to $28,000 a year, as well as other benefits including improved accommodations and bonuses for international matches. The demands were part of larger bargaining that included the men's national team and A-League players.

But there was a ground-swell of support for the women, who have seen their popularity rise in Australia along with the team's national stature. American stars Hope Solo and Carli Lloyd, former player Julie Foudy and Canadian forward Christine Sinclair were among those who expressed support for the Australians. There were change.org petitions to support the team. The deal that was eventually struck in November included a pay structure that puts the salaries for top players at $30,700 per year and those at the next level at $22,400. The contract calls for a 10 percent raise each year and improved bonuses and other benefits.

The victory came well before a group of US. women's national team players filed a complaint with the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission alleging wage discrimination. The women claim they make far less on average than their male national team counterparts. The players seek a new collective bargaining agreement with US. Soccer.

5 p.m. Motor sports: Blancpain GT By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press Long before the U.S. women's soccer team filed a federal complaint over wage discrimination, the Australian women fought for better pay. And won.

The Matildas will be among the 12 women's soccer teams playing in Brazil next week when the Olympics get underway. Their strike following a successful run in last summer's Women's World Cup in Canada was significant as female athletes across sports fight for recognition and respect including their American counterparts. "In terms of being trail-blazers, I'm not really sure. I think we just sort of went about it how we thought was necessary," Australian defender Steph Cadey said. "We felt we deserved more." The Matildas have made a quick ascent as one of the world's elite teams.

They gained national attention last year when they became the first team from Australia male or female to win a World Cup knockout-round match, upsetting Brazil 1-0 and advancing to the quarterfinals. The United States went on to win the World Cup with a 5-2 victory over Japan in the final. Afterward, the U.S. women scheduled a pair of exhibition matches against Australia as part of a victory tour. But the Australian federation withdrew from those matches after the Matildas walked out of training camp and the players' union said contract talks with the national federation had stalled.
