Veterans Day honors all who

have died in the line of duty. Both
holidays originated to mark the
WWI armistice. The war official-

Treaty of Versailles in June 1919.
During Sunday’s ceremony,

“Deadpool 2” that represents a

“Once Upon a Deadpool” is a

language and violence to secure a
PG-13 rating.
Or as Reynolds tweets of the
new version: “The only F word in
this movie is Fred Aaron Savage.”
And on Instagram, he calls it “a
fairy tale that gives zero F’s.” In
the poster, Reynolds is pictured

Dragons’ adjustment clinches it

CAMP HUMPHREYS, South Korea — A setting ad-


justment made the difference for Kubasaki as it rallied
from two sets down Saturday to capture its fourth Far
East Division I Girls Volleyball Tournament title in five
years.
Senior setter Mimi Larry, named the tournament’s
Most Valuable Player, had 43 assists and the Dragons
came back from a two-set hole to dethrone defending
champion Seisen in five sets for the crown. Kubasaki
won 23-25, 20-25, 25-16, 25-16, 15-10.
It might not have been possible, coach Mike Hogen
said, had not Larry made changes to her sets; she had
been called for 10 carrying violations in the first set,
which threw the Dragons off their game.
“I didn’t think it was possible” for the Dragons to
rally, Hogen said. “But Mimi somehow changed her set-
ting technique. It took about 1½ sets and then we just
rolled.”
Senior Donatella Barone benefitted from the change
to record 18 kills. Sophomore Zoe Weidley, in her last

Process
Philadelphia acquires
disgruntled Butler in
trade with Minnesota
BY DAN GELSTON
Associated Press
Jimmy Butler has his wish: He’s out of
Minnesota.
And just like that, Philadelphia has a new Big
Three — one that could make serious noise in the
Eastern Conference.
A person with knowledge of the situation said Sat-
urday that Butler is being traded to the 76ers in a
package that will send Dario Saric and Robert Cov-
ington to the Timberwolves. The person spoke to The
Associated Press on condition of anonymity because
the trade had not yet been announced by either team
and was still pending NBA approval, which is not ex-
pected until Monday.
Justin Patton will also be sent to Philadelphia, and
Jerryd Bayless and a 2022 second-round pick are
also going to Minnesota, the person said.
The Athletic first reported the agreement.
Because the trade was not official, Sixers coach
Brett Brown had little comment.
“I can’t speak much about it. I’m sorry,” he said
before the Sixers played Memphis.
Sixers guard T.J. McConnell said he learned of the
deal through social media.
“I didn’t think it was true until more reports start-
ed coming out,” McConnell said. “It’s kind of that
feeling in your stomach of just like, I mean, you can’t
really explain it. I was in disbelief.”
Philadelphia’s “Process” led it to the second round
of the playoffs last season behind two of the game’s
youngest, brightest stars in big man Joel Embiid and
point guard Ben Simmons. Butler, an elite wing and
outstanding defender, will join them in a quest to
