‘It’s exclusive. Like a reward.’

“It was so hot, but everyone was really friendly and just chatting. Like, talking about what they were going to buy and who had tickets to the show.”

THE DISTRICT Fans of rap superstar Kendrick Lamar lined up around the block in near triple-digit heat Friday for the chance to score some exclusive merchandise at a pop-up store in Georgetown.

The Grammy-winning artist announced in early July that pop-up shops would accompany him at select cities on his cross-country “DAMN.” tour.

D.C.’s pop-up landed at clothing and footwear store Ubiq from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., ahead of his performance at Verizon Center.

When the doors at Ubiq finally opened, hundreds of patient fans were able to buy items from Lamar’s Top Dawg Apparel collection, including hoodies, T-shirts and hats, plus copies of “DAMN.” on CD and vinyl. Much of the clothing simply had the phrase “DAMN.” printed across the chest, although some bore patterns or lyrics from the album.

The shoppers chatted as they perused the offerings, holding up shirts, turning over hats or examining copies of “DAMN.” on vinyl. The whole store was

buzzing with excitement, a sentiment shared by shoppers Samuel Reed, 24, and Mariana Ruiz, 22.

“This is so cool, man,” Reed said outside the store. “I love that he is giving real fans the chance to show how dedicated we are.”

Both Reed and Ruiz saw Lamar promote the pop-up on Instagram earlier this month and decided to head down before Friday’s concert.

“We got in line really early,

probably like 9:15,” Ruiz said.

The pair’s patience paid off and they got their chance to pick up some merchandise. Reed left with a black T-shirt with the letters “TDE” for Top Dawg Entertainment, Lamar’s record label, on the front along with a white hat with “DAMN.” in red letters.

Ruiz picked up a CD of the album and a black shirt with the words “Be Humble” across the front.

“If this stuff was online, I may order it. May not,” Reed said. “But by making it one day only, us fans who really wanted it had to plan and be dedicated.

In fact, he planned to wear the shirt and hat to Lamar’s show Friday night.

SafeTrack gets first grades

THE DISTRICT

Man rescued from trash after dropping phone

TRANSPORTATION When Metro commuters board their trains Tuesday, it will be one month since the conclusion of the year-long SafeTrack program that upended the routines of thousands of commuters while giving workers time to repair the crumbling system.

The question for those who rely on Metro now is: Was the disruption worth it? Do they now feel more confident in a problemplagued system that has faced falling ridership and declining revenues?

For some, like Tanya Williams, 29, who takes the Blue Line each morning to her job at a marketing firm, using the system post-SafeTrack has been a better experience.

“It’s mostly been good,” she said while waiting for a train at Federal Triangle. “I haven’t had too many delays and, not going to lie, it’s really nice now that the trains aren’t coming once every half an hour.”

Others are glad the intensive repairs are over but don’t see a dramatic change from before SafeTrack started in June 2016.

“Maybe it’s a little better. Not so much that I’m telling my friends to ditch their cars and take the train,” said accountant Robert Bartosik, 58, who uses the Orange Line to commute from Virginia.

“It’s Metro,” he added with a shrug.

Riders’ reviews mixed a month after finish of major Metro work

Some Metro riders haven’t noticed much of a difference since SafeTrack ended last month.

It is Metro. And it’s facing real challenges with a $290 million deficit in its fiscal 2018 budget and ridership that fell by 7 percent from July 2016 through March 2017, according to a report released by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority in May. Still, Metro spokesman Dan Stessel cited reasons for optimism.

About 10 million people rode Metro in June, accounting for over 14.4 million weekday trips, he said. While those ridership numbers are about 7 percent lower than they were in 2016, 91.7 percent of trains arrived within five minutes of their scheduled time, making June the second month in a row to exceed the 90 percent threshold.

Stessel was reluctant to give

625K

exact figures about the postSafeTrack performance so soon, but he said initial reports suggest the positive trends are continuing, as more trains run on time, instances of passengers being offloaded due to equipment failures are down and overall reliability has improved.

Incidents of smoke in the tunnels have fallen 16 percent in the year since SafeTrack began compared to the year before, he said.

“The analogy I like to use is that SafeTrack was like waiting until you’re having a heart attack to go to the emergency room,” Stessel said. “We’re by no means done, but now that the most critical issues are taken care of, we can start eating right and working out. What we’re really focused on now is preventative

maintenance. It’s only been three weeks, but there have been positive signs.”

Stessel said ridership, which has been declining for a variety of reasons, has shown improvements on certain days.

“We actually had our highest weekday ridership of the year on Tuesday, June 27, with about 700,000 riders,” he said. “The day before, that Monday, was our highest Monday with about 657,000.”

Metro hopes that more preventive maintenance — and thus better reliability — will bring riders back in ever-increasing numbers.

“I’ll be the first to say that three weeks do not a trend make and issues will still pop up,” Stessel said, “but the early signs are looking good.” ANDREW GRANT (EXPRESS)

METRO REFUNDS

The number of riders who used Metro’s “tap in, tap out” 15-minute grace period in its first year, WAMU reported. Between July 1, 2016, and June 30, Metro said it credited $1.1 million in fare charges to riders who entered a station, but left before 15 minutes elapsed. WAMU said that number came to about 1,700 riders a day taking advantage of the grace period, or less than 1 percent of the system’s daily boardings. The move came after an outcry from riders who were charged after entering and exiting packed stations. (EXPRESS)

A broadcaster who reached heart of D.C.

Jim Vance, a News4 anchor for 45 years, died Saturday after announcing a cancer diagnosis in May.

Trump replacing two on Metro’s governing panel

1942-2017 People don’t watch the news, some sage once said; they watch the people on the news. Jim Vance was fascinating to watch.

Reserved yet strong, vulnerable yet sure, Vance cast a halo of cool over his nightly reading of the day’s mayhem, tragedy and triumph. His particular gift was to make viewers believe that he was authentic, and so the news he imparted must be, too.

The WRC-TV anchorman died Saturday at 75, succumbing to cancer. He practically died with his boots on. Vance broke his own tragic news on the air in early May, but continued to anchor until May 23.

Vance was a Mount Rushmore figure in TV news in D.C. He enjoyed a long career — almost 50 years on the air, including 45 as an anchor. Just as remarkably, he spent all of that time at one station, NBC-owned WRC, or “News4.”

Vance — everyone called him that, just Vance — did something both mundane and magical. Anchors don’t do much, really. They essentially read words, written by others, off a teleprompter. Yet they are everything to a newscast.

Without their perceived authority and gravitas, without being likable enough to be invited into your den or your bedroom, there is no audience, and no newscast.

Vance projected a certain reserve and mystery. With his head held slightly back from the camera, he seemed literally to be keeping his distance from the stories he introduced. Sometimes he told you what he was thinking in one of his grumpybut-commonsensical editorials.

But mostly, you had no idea where Vance stood. Was he a Democrat? A Republican? An independent? Yeah, maybe. Was he sad or angry about the catastrophe he just described? Maybe.

He was not, in any case, all that good about explaining his own appeal. Vance was reluctant to talk about himself, but once he opened up, he was a gusher. Years of therapy made him fluent about his personal history, his sense of childhood abandonment and the personal demons that haunted him thereafter. His battle with depression and cocaine addiction nearly led him to take his life one night in 1987. His recovery made him a hero, a symbol of perseverance.

ROBIN FADER (AP)

Longtime Washington news anchor Jim Vance died Saturday at age 75

Condolences After news of Jim Vance’s death Saturday, notable D.C. figures took to Twitter to express their condolences. “Jim Vance was not just a newscaster but a voice and leader of this city,” D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser tweeted. Capitals and Wizards owner Ted Leonsis wrote, “Giant of giants, Jim Vance, the voice of DC. Great guy, a good friend, respected, revered, truly will be missed.” The D.C. Council’s account shared a simple message: “They don’t, & won’t, come any cooler, smarter, or classier than Jim Vance. Washington has 1 less monument today.” (EXPRESS)

Viewers sensed that this was a man who’d really lived.

For all his success, Vance was sobered by the trajectory of his medium. He acknowledged that the age in which the village assembled around the electronic campfire to hear an elder tell of the day’s news was fading.

He knew that no single figure could anchor a community and hold their attention, let alone establish their trust.

Which means Vance would appreciate this not as flattery but as fact: There won’t be anyone like Jim Vance again.

Mechanical problems plague Circulator

Frequent breakdowns of D.C. Circulator buses are causing headaches for passengers. City transportation officials said as many as onethird of the Circulator’s buses aren’t operating on any given day because of mechanical problems. That means longer wait times. The city’s minimum target is 80 percent of passengers picked up on time. In June, 67 percent were picked up on time, slightly better than in April, when just 52 percent were. (TWP/AP)

Maryland says that despite reports, schedule for study of third Chesapeake Bay Bridge span on track

TRANSPORTATION More than a year after former President Barack Obama’s transportation secretary appointed a trio of safety experts to Metro’s governing panel, the Trump administration will replace two of them with its own appointees this week.

The incoming members — whose names could not be learned Sunday — will take the place of Carol Carmody and David L. Strickland, the federal government’s voting representatives on Metro’s board of directors, according to multiple board members with knowledge of the decision.

Carmody, a former vice chairman of the National Transportation Safety Board, presided over the panel’s safety committee. Strickland, the former administrator of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, headed the real estate committee.

The third person appointed by then-Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx, alternate member Robert C. Lauby, is expected to remain in his role for now.

The new appointees were expected to be announced as soon as today, those with knowledge of the decision said, and to take office as early as Thursday, when the full board will meet and consider key changes to its governing structure, which has come under scrutiny in recent years as the transit system has struggled with major financial problems.

In UK, officers fine 5-year-old entrepreneur

San Antonio police collect evidence from a truck where 8 people were found dead, and one died later at a hospital.

Heat kills 9 in trailer of truck in San Antonio In likely smuggling plot, 39 others, many very ill, found in sweltering rig SAN ANTONIO Authorities called to a Wal-Mart parking lot found eight people dead and others in dire condition in the back of a sweltering tractortrailer, victims of what police said Sunday was an immigrantsmuggling attempt gone wrong.

In addition to the eight found dead in the truck, one later died in a hospital, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

U.S. Attorney Richard Durbin Jr. released a statement Sunday saying 60-year-old James Mathew Bradley Jr. of Clearwater, Fla., is in federal custody

in San Antonio. Durbin said Bradley is expected to make a court appearance after a criminal complaint is filed today. It was not clear if Bradley was the driver of the truck.

“We’re looking at a human trafficking crime,” Police Chief William McManus said. He called it “a horrific tragedy.”

Based on interviews with survivors, Thomas Homan, acting director of ICE, said there may have been more than 100 people in the truck at one point. Authorities said 39 were found inside, and the rest were believed to have fled or been picked up.

Nearly 20 were hospitalized in dire condition with dehydration and heatstroke.

Authorities said they were investigating where the immigrants

2,234

were from. Some said they were from Mexico, Homan said.

The tragedy came to light after a person from the truck approached a store employee and asked for water late Saturday night or early Sunday, McManus said. The employee gave the person water and then called police, he said.

Investigators checked store surveillance video, which showed vehicles picking up people from the truck, authorities said.

The tractor-trailer was registered to Pyle Transportation of Schaller, Iowa. Brian Pyle identified himself as the owner of the company but told The Washington Post that the driver owned the truck and operated largely independently.

A British man said his 5-year-old daughter was left in tears after being fined 150 pounds ($195) for selling lemonade without a license to fans attending the Lovebox dance festival near their home in London. Four officers approached the girl and began telling her that her lemonade stand infringed on local business rights. Halfway through the interaction, Andre Spicer said his daughter burst into tears and said, “I’ve done a bad thing, Daddy.

I’ve done something wrong.” Local officials later apologized, saying officers are expected to “show common sense,” and that the fine would be cancelled immediately. (AP)

Scaramucci vows to add positive vibe

White House ‘supports’ bill aimed at Russia

POLITICS President Trump’s new communications adviser says it’s time to hit the “reset button.”

Appearing on Fox News on Sunday, Wall Street financier Anthony Scaramucci pledged to begin “an era of a new good feeling” and said he hopes to “create a more positive mojo.” He also promised to crack down on information leaks and pledged to better focus the message coming from the White House.

To that end, Scaramucci suggested changes to come, noting: “I have in my pocket a radio studio, a television studio and a movie studio. The entire world has changed; we need to rethink the way we’re delivering our information.”

Trump announced Friday that Scaramucci — a polished television commentator and Harvard Law graduate — would take over the administration’s top messaging job. The appointment came as the president contends with sinking approval ratings and struggles to advance his legislative agenda. The president has also been frustrated with the attention devoted to investigations of allegations of his election campaign’s connections to Russia.

White House press secretary Sean Spicer abruptly resigned in protest over Scaramucci’s appointment. He will be replaced by his former deputy, Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

The challenges for Scaramucci’s new role were evident in a

series of interviews, where he discussed his plans for press strategy but was beset by questions about the Russia investigation and the president’s Twitter feed.

Asked about the response to the Russia stories, Scaramucci said on Fox that a “two-pronged approach” was needed, saying that “in some ways we want to de-escalate things and have there be a level of diplomacy. In other ways, we want it to be very hardhitting and war-like.”

The president believes he is his own best spokesman, frequently opting to directly speak to the public via Twitter. Asked on CBS’ “Face the Nation” about the president’s tweets about the investigation, Scaramucci said he would not get in the way.

“That’s the crystal essence of the president. And so some of you guys in the media think it’s not helpful. But if he thinks it’s helpful to him, let him do it,” Scaramucci said.

He also said on CNN’s “State of the Union” that “we’re going to — we’re going to defend him very, very aggressively when there’s nonsensical stuff being said about him. And he will probably dial back some of those tweets.”

Scaramucci also said on CNN that an unnamed person told him that “if the Russians actually hacked this situation and spilled out those emails, you would have never seen it.”

He then quickly said he was

New adviser draws fire Anthony Scaramucci praised new White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Sunday morning shows, but he took heat for comments on the only thing he’s asking of Sanders. “Sarah, if you’re watching,” he said on CNN. “I love the hair and makeup person that we had on Friday, so I’d like to continue to use the hair and makeup person.”

It’s unclear whether he was referring specifically Sanders’ stylist, or more generally to whoever does that job for all staffers, but some said it implied that Sanders’ physical appearance is related to how well she does at her job. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

U.S. intelligence agencies have

accused the Russian government of meddling through hacking in last year’s election to benefit Trump and harm Hillary Clinton, and authorities are exploring potential links between Moscow and the Trump campaign.

On Saturday, the newly minted Trump aide announced he was deleting old tweets. Some of the tweets were at odds with Trump’s views, including one that praised Hillary Clinton’s competence.

Trump defeated Clinton for president last year and continues to criticize her, including in several tweets Saturday.

Scaramucci said on Fox that the old tweets were “a total distraction.” He added: “When I made the decision to take this job, my politics and my political ideas do not matter at all. What matters is that I am supporting — subordinating all of that to the president’s agenda.” CATHERINE LUCEY (AP)

NATIONAL SECURITY The White House indicated Sunday that President Trump would sign a sweeping sanctions measure, which the House could take up this week, that requires him to get Congress’ permission before lifting or easing the penalties against Russia.

Lawmakers are scheduled to consider the sanctions package as early as Tuesday, and the bill could be sent to Trump before Congress breaks for the August recess. The legislation is aimed at punishing Moscow for meddling in the presidential election and for its military aggression in Ukraine and Syria.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the new White House press secretary, said on ABC’s “This Week”: “We support where the legislation is now, and will continue to work with the House and Senate to put those tough sanctions in place on Russia until the situation in Ukraine is fully resolved.”

Congressional Republicans and Democrats announced Saturday that they had settled issues with the bill, which also includes stiff economic penalties against Iran and North Korea.

The White House had objected to a key section of the bill that would mandate a congressional review if Trump attempts to terminate the sanctions against Moscow.

Lawmakers included the review because of wariness in both parties over Trump’s reaching out to Vladimir Putin. (AP)

Conflict at shrine continues ISRAEL Israel’s security Cabinet met Sunday to review a decision to install metal detectors at a contested Jerusalem holy site, following a week of escalating tensions with the Muslim world, mass prayer protests and IsraeliPalestinian violence.

The ministers met amid mounting controversy at home, with critics saying the government had acted without considering the repercussions of introducing new security measures at the Holy Land’s most sensitive shrine and the epicenter of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

In a possible spillover of the tensions, three people, including an Israeli, were wounded by gunfire Sunday in a residential building in the heavily fortified Israeli Embassy compound in Jordan’s capital, Amman. A Jordanian man later died of his wounds, a security official said.

The kingdom’s Public Security Directorate said that before the shooting, Jordanians had entered the apartment building

Israel reviews its use of metal detectors at holy site after violence

Israel installed contested metal detectors at al-Aqsa Mosque compound last week after an attack by Arab gunman that killed two Israeli policemen.

for carpentry work.

Metal detectors were installed a week ago at the entrances to al-Aqsa Mosque compound, in response to an attack by Arab gunmen there who killed two Israeli policemen. Muslim religious leaders alleged Israel was trying to expand its control at the compound under the guise of security, a claim Israel denied.

Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan, an outspoken supporter of the security measures, on

Sunday for the first time raised the possibility that the metal detectors might be removed, provided an alternative is found.

He said security measures at the 37-acre esplanade, with eight entry gates for Muslim worshippers, were insufficient before the shooting attack.

Muslim leaders signaled earlier Sunday that they would reject any new proposal that keeps additional security measures.

Jerusalem, Mohammed Hussein, told Voice of Palestine radio that he demands a complete return to the security measures in place before the shooting attack.

On Friday, several thousand Palestinians clashed with Israeli security forces in the West Bank and in Jerusalem after noon prayers. Three Palestinians were killed and several dozen wounded after protesters burned tires and threw stones and firecrackers.

Israeli troops responded with live rounds, rubber bullets and tear gas.

Late Friday night, a 20-yearold Palestinian stabbed and killed three members of an Israeli family in their home in a West Bank settlement.

Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, denounced the attack as “an act of terror, carried out by an animal who was incited with unfathomable hatred.”

Meanwhile, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas confirmed that an earlier decision to freeze ties with Israel on “all levels” also included a halt to security coordination. Abbas has said the freeze would remain in effect until the metal detectors have been removed. IAN DEITCH AND KARIN LAUB (AP)

RESERVATIONS

You may have to go online to get in Zion Zion National Park in Utah is considering becoming the first U.S. national park to require reservations to get in as a way to manage the crowds. Zion, the fifth-most-visited national park, welcomed 4.3 million people last year to its red-rock vistas and canyons. Zion rangers are proposing an online reservation system, similar to the way campsites are reserved now. People without reservations could pay an entrance fee and drive through the park, but they couldn’t stop to hike or picnic. (AP)

Sergey Kislyak ends tenure as ambassador to the U.S.

Erdogan takes Gulf tour to try to end Qatar dispute

Charlie Gard supporters rally ahead of court date

The Russian ambassador to the United States, Sergey Kislyak, has ended his assignment in Washington. The Russian Embassy in Washington announced on Twitter that Kislyak’s tenure ended Saturday. Kislyak is a prominent figure in the controversy over Russia’s possible involvement in the 2016 U.S. presidential election for his contacts with members of President Trump’s team. Kislyak’s successor has not been announced, although it is widely expected to be Anatoly Antonov, a deputy foreign minister and former deputy defense minister seen as a hard-liner regarding the United States. (AP)

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan waded into the diplomatic crisis gripping Qatar and four other Arab nations Sunday, traveling to Saudi Arabia and Kuwait as part of a three-country Gulf tour aimed at helping to break the impasse.

Erdogan is the fifth high-level visitor from outside the Gulf to try to resolve the dispute since it erupted June 5. The top diplomats of Britain, France, Germany and the United States have been through already. Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Bahrain cut ties with Qatar in June, accusing it of supporting extremists. Qatar strongly denies the allegations. (AP)

Protesters who want critically ill British baby Charlie Gard to receive an experimental medical treatment rallied Sunday, while hospital officials said emotions are running so high in the heartbreaking case that they have received death threats. A group of about 20 activists supporting Gard’s parents, including some from the United States, gathered Sunday outside the High Court in London, where legal proceedings will resume today with new medical evidence.

His parents are fighting to get him more medical care but hospital officials say the experimental treatment won’t work. The hospital wants to end life support. (AP)

TOUR DE FRANCE

Froome’s fourth title ‘toughest’

With the claret jug in hand, Jordan Spieth can complete a career Grand Slam next month.

Sitting pretty after all Spieth flirts with collapse in final round but reclaims his lead to win the British Open SOUTHPORT, ENGLAND Jordan Spieth is the British Open champion, just as expected.

But not like anyone could have imagined.

On the verge of another meltdown in a major, so wild off the tee that he played one shot from the driving range at Royal Birkdale and lost the lead for the first time all weekend, Spieth bounced back with an epic rally that included a near ace on the 14th hole, a 50-foot eagle putt on 15 and a 30-foot birdie putt on 16.

Spieth played the final five holes in 5 under and closed with a 1-under 69 for a three-shot victory over Matt Kuchar, giving him the third leg of the career Grand Slam and a chance to be the youngest to win them all next

month at the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow in North Carolina.

“This is a dream come true for me,” Spieth said, gazing at his name on the silver claret jug.

For so much of Sunday, it felt like a recurring nightmare.

Just 15 months ago, Spieth lost a five-shot lead on the back nine at the Masters, coming undone with a quadruple-bogey 7 on the 12th hole. It was more of a slow bleed Sunday, with three bogeys on the opening four holes and four putts inside 8 feet that he missed on the front nine to fall into a tie with Kuchar.

And then it seemed to fall apart.

His tee shot in the rain on the par-4 13th was so far right it sailed over the gallery, over the dunes behind them and was

Caddie gets his due After losing the British Open lead Sunday for the first time all weekend, Jordan Spieth took back a share of it on the 14th hole and got it for good with a 50-foot eagle putt on 15. Then he looked at caddie Michael Greller and barked, “Go get that!” Spieth said Greller helped him stay confident.

“I was getting down on myself, as I think anyone would,” Spieth said.

“This is as much mine as it is his.” D.F.

closer to the practice range than the fairway. The ball was nestled in thick grass on a hill so steep Spieth could barely stand up.

Kuchar was 15 feet away for birdie, waiting on the green. Spieth appeared to be headed for a

double bogey at best.

In a moment that will rate alongside Seve Ballesteros making birdie from the car park when he won at Royal Lytham & St. Annes in 1979, Spieth used the range as part of the course.

He took a one-shot penalty for an unplayable lie and took relief behind the equipment trucks, swinging a 3-iron for a shot that stopped in front of the green.

That set up a pitch and a putt to help Spieth escape with bogey.

Kuchar missed his birdie, but had the lead for the first time.

Then Spieth began his rally.

By the end, four days before his 24th birthday, the Texan joined Jack Nicklaus as the only players to win three different majors at the age of 23. DOUG FERGUSON (AP)

After the champagne bubbles fade and Britain’s Chris Froome drifts away from the celebrations to reflect on a fourth Tour de France win, he may do so with greater fondness than the others. In 2013, he felt the bursting pride of a first success. But he won by more than four minutes, as he did last year. Although Nairo Quintana finished just over one minute behind him in 2015, this year’s victory — by just 54 seconds — over another Colombian, Rigoberto Uran, tastes sweeter. “This Tour has been my toughest yet,” Froome said Sunday.

He temporarily lost the lead in the Pyrenees and thought he lost it altogether last week, when he was forced to change his rear wheel after a broken spoke. (AP)

Li Haotong crept into unexpected contention with the round of his life Sunday. It didn’t win him the claret jug, but it did earn him a place at the Masters. The Chinese golfer, 21, became the fourth player to shoot 63 in the final round of the British Open. The 7-under round moved him to 6 under for the tournament, good for third place. Finishing in the top four at Royal Birkdale earned him a spot at Augusta National next year. (AP)

Historically rich timing for Wizards ANALYSIS John Wall agreed to a four-year, $170 million contract extension with the Wizards late Friday, exercising his right to cash in with a designated player veteran exemption. The so-called supermax deal kicks in at the end of his current contract, which runs for two more seasons.

Wall, 26, has a player option for the final year and a trade kicker that would increase his salary by 15 percent in the event of a trade.

Don’t read anything extra into those details. They’re the kinds of goodies included for most stars.

Most important to anyone interested in Washington basketball is that for the next five to six years, Wall — the franchise’s best player since Wes Unseld — will wear a Wizards uniform.

This is a seminal moment for a franchise that has spent most of the past four decades in the basketball wilderness. By persuading Wall to spend the rest of his prime in Washington, the Wizards have put themselves in an envious position.

Championship contention may be a ways off — at least as long as LeBron James is in the East.

But the Wizards hadn’t come close to achieving any real success since the 1970s until the past few years, when they made the second round of the playoffs three times in four seasons. This is important for continuity.

After averaging 23.1 points and 10.7 assists this past season, Wall earned third-team all-NBA honors. Two years from now, he easily would have been one of the top free agents on the market, sought by every team with cap room to sign a max free agent.

Now none of them will have that option, and that’s no small victory for the Wizards. Just three weeks ago, Wall told The Washington Post he was going to wait and see what the Wizards did in free agency before committing to sign an extension.

That was before owner Ted Leonsis committed to paying the luxury tax for the first time by keeping Otto Porter Jr. as a restricted free agent. That clearly resonated with Wall and persuaded him to stay long-term.

Now Wall is off the market until at least 2022 and keeps intact a backcourt with shooting guard

Wall’s $170M extension positions Washington to contend for years

John Wall’s new supermax deal will keep him with the Wizards through at least 2021-22.

WALL’S SIX-YEAR PAYOUT

$207M

The combined value of John Wall’s salary for the next six seasons, assuming the All-Star point guard signs a player option to the stay with the Wizards in 2022-23. Wall will average more than $42 million per year after his “supermax” extension starts paying out in 2019. (EXPRESS)

Bradley Beal, whose five-year deal runs through 2021.

That will allow Washington to pursue players to upgrade at other spots for the next several years,

beginning with All-Star center DeMarcus Cousins, who will be a free agent in 2018. Cousins played with Wall at Kentucky, and several sources around the league believe he wants to do so again.

There’s no certainty Cousins could be lured to Washington, but the important thing is that the Wizards have secured a foundation that makes it possible.

For so long, the Wizards searched for the kind of longterm stability they now have.

As others in town have proven, keeping a franchise player is no sure thing.

For a franchise devoid of seminal moments, Wall’s extension has to be one. TIM BONTEMPS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

NBA

Why Irving wants out of Cleveland

Kyrie Irving rocked the NBA world Friday, when ESPN first reported that the four-time All-Star point guard and No. 1 overall pick of the 2011 draft had told Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert that he wants to be traded, preferably to the Spurs, Heat, Knicks or Timberwolves. ESPN reported Sunday that simmering dysfunction influenced the request, including Irving’s disenchantment with playing second fiddle to LeBron James and the club being distracted by its general manager vacancy and failed attempts to trade for Paul George. (EXPRESS) Gold Cup: Mexico-Jamaica ended after Express’ deadline Sunday; winner to play U.S. on Wednesday

BASKETBALL Maryland guard Kristen Confroy, above, stood in front of TV cameras Thursday at Xfinity Center holding a white jersey with a bright red “USA” emblazoned on the front. She smiled and quipped, “Ni hao,” or “hello” in Mandarin, before grimacing.

“That could have been better,” she said with a laugh.

Confroy has some brushing up to do before the Terrapins head to Taipei, Taiwan, next month, where they will represent the United States in the World University Games. It will be just the second time a full women’s college basketball team has represented the U.S. at the games, which are held biennially.

UNC Charlotte represented Team USA in 2007.

To prepare for the event, the Terps started practice in June with sessions that don’t count as official NCAA practices.

Former Terp Malina Howard and former All-Big Ten guard Tori Jankoska (Michigan State) will join the roster. Teams are allowed to take up to 12 players, and athletes 17 to 24 who have been in college within the past year are eligible.

From what coach Brenda Frese has heard, the players can expect some sharp elbows.

“These aren’t, like, friendly games,” Frese said. “They’re going to be physical, maybe what would be deemed a foul over here may not be the same kind of call over there.”

MUST-SEE THIS WEEK

1

Issa, the real and the fictional TELEVISION The moment seemed almost too perfect — the stunningly talented Issa Rae walking onto the stage at June’s BET Awards. But before she reached the microphone, Rae was introduced as ... Yara Shahidi.

Shahidi, of course, is 17, and plays Zoey on ABCs “Black-ish.”

Rae, 32, stars on HBO’s “Insecure,” which launched its second season Sunday.

“That’s Issa!” screamed Yvonne Orji, who plays Molly on “Insecure,” trying to correct the moment from her seat.

For Rae, a creative dynamo capable of turning heads on the red carpet and in the writing room, these moments just happen. And Rae’s ability to make these moments into comedy has carried her from YouTube sensation to leading lady. Rae — who first emerged in the 2011 web series “The Mis-Adventures of

Awkward Black Girl” — now stars in “Insecure” as Issa Dee, a character as self-assured as she is self-loathing. She’s funny, maddening, manipulative and trying her best. To her legion of fans, she’s simply Issa.

Which, interestingly enough, has gotten tiresome to Rae. As she grows older, she’s finding it less charming to be confused with this fictitious Issa.

“I just didn’t think. I was so pressed with telling a good story that I didn’t think about the fact that this character, named after me, was going to air,” Rae said before the BET Awards. “And even while shooting, it didn’t cross my mind until it aired. This is not by any means my life, and this is where it gets muddy because people assume that it is.”

That’s not to say she does not realize her life has changed. But in “The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl,” her memoir, Rae wrote of her childhood in Maryland and her traumatic move to California, her struggles with weight and her parents’ divorce.

10 p.m. today on ABC

This 10-episode thriller on ABC stars Paula Patton as a news producer and mother desperately trying to change her 8-year-old daughter’s fate after learning that the child is about to be murdered.

The real Issa Rae, here, is trying to live with her fictional Issa Dee of HBO’s “Insecure.”

Her claim to fame Ask Issa Rae about fame, and she’ll shake her head. “There is temporary fame,” she says, “and I feel like I have temporary fame during a specific season, but I think the era of movie stardom only exists for the older crowds. The George Clooneys and Brad Pitts and Angelina Jolies and for music stars. But for television, I just don’t feel the same way, because it is so flighty, and there is so much happening at the moment.” G.E.

Now, she says she regrets being so open in the 2015 book.

“I wrote in such a vacuum place that it felt like diary entries, and I was so isolated in the process,” Rae says. “It felt like,

‘Oh, I’m exchanging stories between girlfriends,’ and it never occurred to me that the country will see it, and the world will see it, and form opinions about me.”

At the BET Awards, Rae emerged from a black SUV to screams of “Issa,” begged by both interviewers and Snapchatters for moments on camera, before she finally got to the theater.

And that’s when Rae, on stage, was reminded that not everything goes as scheduled.

Orji, in her seat, did her part, screaming Rae’s name.

“It was so perfectly Issa,” she says later. “It’s just like, she’s not goi ng to be up set. She took a moment and paused, and they got it right.”

NBC’s “The Wall” sounds like a series about a president’s attempt to build a barrier between his country and a neighbor. That would be some show!

As it turns out, “The Wall” (9 p.m. Thursdays) is a game show. Now in its second season, it’s one of the hottest shows of summer, recently earning

6 million weekly viewers.

And yes, it has a wall. A glowing, four-story blue wall studded with pegs from top to bottom. A team of two contestants sends balls careening down the wall and bouncing off pegs, kind of like in a pinball machine, to land in compartments at the bottom marked with a figure from $1 to $1 million — the range of money riding on a right or wrong answer to a trivia question.

Kevin Spacey cast as Gore Vidal in Netflix biopic ”Gore”

A contestant takes a breather on “The Wall.”

In one segment, the multiplechoice answers are shown first — say, names of four French painters or random words. If the answers make contestants feel confident about the unseen question, they can send the balls down the side of the wall with higher

dollar figures. Bonus twists: an isolation booth and a secret contract.

Confused? Me, too!

Winnings could hit $12 million (although $1.3 million is the record so far). As the game proceeds, lights flash! Balls tumble! Tensions rise! One

contestant said being on the show was more stressful than childbirth — and she delivered a baby in a car on the highway!

Contestants Jeff and Jamie blew a few questions, including “What does the ‘q’ in Q-tip stand for?” She said “quilted.”

It’s “quality.” They won zero dollars.

But look at the bright side: “The Wall” was invented in America. The show is making America great, at least when it comes to TV syndication.

Canada, France, Germany, Italy and Spain are all airing their own versions.

“We wanted stable careers, pensions, and health insurance but what we got was an airplane named Joon.” @DCSEIFERT, reacting to the news that

Air France is launching a new airline — Joon — that specifically targets millennials. The announcement says Joon promises an “innovative and offbeat” experience, with few details of what that means aside from the flight crew wearing trendy uniforms.

“The only thing millennials want on planes, is the same thing everybody wants: more legroom,” Xaelias commented at theverge.com.

“Man, you couldn’t [have] just ordered one off of Amazon and had it shipped Prime?

You gotta take it from your own staffers?” @FAKEMIKEJONES, tweeting about The Wall Street Journal

story from Friday that opened with an anecdote about the now former White House press secretary Sean Spicer stealing a mini-fridge from junior staffers. After Spicer resigned, The Journal published a collection of some of the indignities he faced while in office. Early in his tenure, the paper reported, Spicer asked his aide to tell the junior staffers he wanted their fridge. When the staffers refused, Spicer allegedly took it from their office in the evening after they had left work.

“Wow. I just realized that Conor is rocking a C.J. Watson jersey because that’s who Floyd caught his wife texting. ... That’s supreme trolling.” @NWILBORN19, tweeting after MMA

fighter Conor McGregor wore an old C.J. Watson Warriors jersey to mess with boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr., his upcoming opponent. Mayweather’s ex-girlfriend Josie Harris told police he assaulted her in 2010 after finding texts between her and Watson. McGregor’s post also started an Instagram feud with Draymond Green, who currently wears No. 23 for the Warriors.

Chris Evans, a radio DJ for the BBC, recounted in the past that when “Dancing Queen” was played at a royal banquet, the queen got up to dance. “I always try to dance when this song comes on, because I am the queen, and I like to dance,” he reported that Queen Elizabeth said. “What a time to be alive,” @Inu_ Atsumeme tweeted about the story.
