NAPA, Calif. -- Raiders coach Dennis Allens plans to have his team practice in pads were altered by a rash of injuries. More than a dozen players were sidelined for Sunday mornings workout, including six projected starters on defence. That forced the team into a scramble mode just to get through practice. "Obviously (injuries) are a part of camp, part of the things you have to deal with," Allen said. "But it is frustrating to not have guys that youre counting on to be out there on Sundays be able to go through practice. This is part of where we develop the foundation of the team that were going to be." Khalif Barnes, Oaklands starting right tackle the past two seasons, moved inside to guard after Mike Brisiel was held out. Alex Barron, a reserve left tackle, switched sides to replace Barnes. In the secondary, first-round pick D.J. Hayden and Chimdi Chekwa, both backups, took all the reps at cornerback with the first-team defence, while Mike Jenkins and Tracy Porter were held out. And Hayden, who hasnt played since suffering a near-fatal heart injury that required follow-up surgery, has been wearing a red non-contact jersey typically saved for quarterbacks and kickers. The defensive line was hit even harder, with only seven players able to practice. End Lamarr Houston, one of just two holdover starters from Oaklands defence in 2012, has been out since Thursday. Tackles Pat Sims and Vance Walker were also missing from practice. Its gotten so rough that defensive tackle Myles Wade, signed Wednesday because of the other injuries up front, was hurt in his first practice and has been out since. Rookie linebacker Sio Moore, the teams fourth-round draft pick and likely starter on the strong side, did not practice either, nor did kick returner Josh Cribbs. How serious the ailments are is unknown, at least outside of the Raiders training room. Allen has been hesitant to discuss injuries since camp began and did not change that approach Sunday. "None of them are major injuries," Allen said. "Hopefully well get those guys back sooner than later." One player who might not be back anytime soon is second-round pick Menelik Watson. Watson has not practiced in training camp and has been limited to individual work in the weight room and riding a stationary bicycle. "Hes way behind," Allen said. "He went through the off-season program, but here we are in the second week of camp and he hasnt seen a down yet. Hes got to get healthy and get back out here." With so many players missing, the Raiders decided to practice without pads to give the healthy players a break. "Its hard to get multiple groups of a defensive front when youve only got seven guys that are able to go," Allen said. "We took the pads off and we slowed the tempo down at the end in the hopes that we can keep some of these guys that are having to take extra reps as fresh as we can." Notes: The Raiders signed two-time Pro Bowl long snapper Jon Condo to a three-year extension. That came on the heels of Oaklands decision to give kicker Sebastian Janikowski a four-year extension Friday. ...

The NBA is moving the 2017 All-Star Game out of Charlotte because of its objections to a North Carolina law that limits anti-discrimination protections for lesbian, gay and transgender people.The league had expressed its opposition to the law known as HB2 since it was enacted in March, and its decision Thursday came less than a month after state legislators revisited the law and chose to leave it largely unchanged.While we recognize that the NBA cannot choose the law in every city, state, and country in which we do business, we do not believe we can successfully host our All-Star festivities in Charlotte in the climate created by HB2, the league said in a statement.The league added that it hoped to announce a new location for next Februarys events shortly. It hopes to reschedule the 2019 game for Charlotte if there is a resolution to the matter.We understand the NBAs decision and the challenges around holding the NBA All-Star Game in Charlotte this season. There was an exhaustive effort from all parties to keep the event in Charlotte, and we are disappointed we were unable to do so, Hornets chairman and Hall of Famer Michael Jordan said. With that said, we are pleased that the NBA opened the door for Charlotte to host All-Star weekend again as soon as an opportunity was available in 2019.The leagues decision was first reported by the Vertical.Commissioner Adam Silver wanted to wait as long as possible to make one, believing positive dialogue could lead to changes it felt the law needed. But he also said a decision would need to be made this summer, and the league was disappointed when the General Assembly restored the ability of workers to use state law to sue over employment discrimination on the basis of race, religion and other factors -- but left gender identity and sexual orientation unprotected.There was no appetite among Republican lawmakers to change the provision requiring transgender people to use restrooms corresponding to the sex on their birth certificates in many public buildings -- a measure at the heart of two legal challenges in federal court.The law passed in a March special session also excludes sexual orientation and gender identity from antidiscrimination protections related to the workplace, hotels and restaurants; and overrules local antidiscrimination ordinances. Republican leaders have said the law was passed in response to a Charlotte ordinance that would have allowed transgender people to use restrooms consistent with their gender identity.Governor Pat McCrory lashed out at the sports and entertainment industry and the media in response to the NBAs announcement.The sports and entertainment elite, Attorney General Roy Cooper and the liberal media have for months misrepresented our laws and maligned the people of North Carolina simply because most people believe boys and girls should be able to use school bathrooms, locker rooms and showers without the opposite sex present, McCrory said in a statement isssued by his office.ddddddddddddThe law has drawn opposition from a number of entertainers who have canceled performances in North Carolina. Duke recently had to replace one of its games scheduled for next season when Albany was prevented from traveling to Raleigh by New York Governor Andrew Cuomos travel ban.So our states lost a lot, Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said Thursday.The fate of the state law is likely to be decided in federal courts where dueling lawsuits are being heard, with a judge saying he wants to start trial in four of the five cases by early November. Hes also set an Aug. 1 hearing on a motion for a preliminary injunction to block the laws bathroom access provision.Charlotte officials have said they expected the event to have an economic impact of around $100 million, based on data from recent All-Star Games in the comparable New Orleans and Orlando markets. The game could rival the $164 million economic impact of the 2012 Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, the largest financial bump of any event for the city.Charlotte Mayor Jennifer Roberts expressed disappointment that the laws discriminatory actions led to the NBAs decision and hoped the city will get another shot at the showcase in 2019.All-Star weekend would have provided an excellent opportunity to further showcase our great and welcoming city. Charlotte has shown its commitment to equal rights and inclusion and will continue to promote those values, Roberts said in a statement. I appreciate the NBA and our Charlotte Hornets being such strong champions of equality.Several NBA cities could be in line to host the game, including New Orleans -- which has hosted the leagues midseason showcase twice. The Pelicans are owned by Tom Benson.New Orleans has demonstrated time and again our ability to successfully host some of the largest and most visible sporting events and celebrations in the world, including the 2008 and 2014 NBA All-Star Games, Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation President and CEO Jay Cicero said Thursday after the leagues announcement. We will do everything possible to assist the NBA, Mr. and Mrs. Benson and the New Orleans Pelicans in their efforts, if called upon.Silver has said having Jordan, one of the NBAs most recognized figures, in Charlotte was one of reasons to have the game there. He also praised Charlotte plans that had been made for renovations, which included upgrading the infrastructure, suites and scoreboard -- all of which have been completed or are close to being completed.On Thursday, Jordan thanked city leaders for their support.We want to thank the City of Charlotte and the business community for their backing throughout this entire process, starting with the initial bid, Jordan said. We are confident that they will be just as supportive and enthusiastic for the 2019 NBA All-Star Game.
