SALT LAKE CITY — Three more interesting stories from the world of sports in today's From Left Field.

1. Brothers reunite in NBA playoffs

The University of Utah's Delon Wright worried that he had missed the opportunity to play against his brother in the NBA. After all, Dorell went off to play for a team in China as Delon started his rookie season with the Toronto Raptors.

But as this Sun-Sentinel piece explains, they're getting a second opportunity at it, this time in the semifinals of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Neither Delon or Dorell played in Game 1 of the series, but should there be a blowout, they'll probably find their way onto the court at the same time. We'll be watching.

2. Argentina TV channel releases soccer commercial featuring Trump

This summer, the Copa America Centenario takes place in the United States, a soccer tournament featuring the national team squads from both the North and South Americas. It's a rare event, and so naturally TV rights have been expensively purchased in each of the countries that will participate.

One of those countries, Argentina, has a network that put out this commercial of the event featuring comments from Donald Trump, our new presumptive Republican presidential nominee.

America, be warned: Argentina soccer fans are coming.
