harris correctly? just a mistake or malicious. we're looking into that new 3-6 always live abc seven news starts right now. >> so in the next 106 days, we have work to do. we have doors to knock on. we have people to talk to. we have phone calls to make, and we have an election to win. >> let the countdown begin. will. bay area native kamala harris be elected the next president of the united states? good evening. >> i'm ama daetz, and i'm dan ashley. thanks for joining us. it's the first full day of campaigning for kamala harris. now that president joe biden has stepped aside and today she picked up new endorsements, notably notably from house speaker nancy pelosi. harris has already received endorsements from many major california politicians, as well as numerous others across the country.

>> you hear it? their cheers greeted harris as she walked into campaign headquarters today in delaware. president joe biden called in during that visit. >> the name has changed at the top of the ticket, but the mission hasn't changed at all. and by the way, i'm not going anywhere. i'm going to be out there in the campaign with her, with kamala. >> president biden is still at home in delaware recovering from covid. he plans to return to the white house tomorrow. and as harris inches closer to clinching the democratic presidential nomination, the question is what happens next? >> abc seven news reporter stephanie sierra is looking into the top three factors most likely to influence the electio, and how they could influence california and the bay area. steph. >> yes, and dan, it's looking more and more likely at this point. vice president kamala harris will be the democratic nominee. now if that happens, she has a chance at rebuilding her campaign to reach that crucial, roughly 10% of undecided voters. with that come several factors that could affect the race and what some analysts say would redefine

california politics with impacts right here in the bay area. as democratic delegates continue to pledge their support for vice president kamala harris at the top of the ticket, what impact could the daughter of oakland bring here at home? >> i think you're going to see a dramatic change in the whole bay area. i think you're going to see a dramatic change in california. >> joe cotchett is a close ally of president biden and vice president harris. he explains a harris presidency would bring greater access for the bay area on the national stage. >> many people that have been involved in washington are going to be able to have more communications, more direct communications with the washington grouping, if you know what i mean. >> speaker emerita nancy pelosi announcing monday on x with immense pride and limitless optimism for our country's future, i endorse vice president kamala harris for president of the united states. i have full confidence that she will lead us to victory. if nominated, vice

president harris has the opportunity to appeal to a key demographic undecided voters. >> we're talking about a smaller percentage, probably 10% or less, who are going to make the difference in this election. >> to do that, several factors will likely be at play first. age with president biden out of the race, former president trump is now the oldest presidential nominee in us history. in four years, he would be 82. kamala harris is 59. >> i think this is going to become a liability for trump. >> the second factor, vice president harris campaign strategy on divisive policy issues like immigration, tax reform, foreign affairs and the economy. >> i think that, kamala harris or whoever the democratic candidate ends up being is going to have the message of we need to tax the wealthy more, which would come as a stark contrast to donald trump's silicon valley backed running mate, jd vance. >> harmeet dhillon, california's republican party chairwoman and

current trump lawyer, is confident the trump vance ticket will have greater appeal to undecided voters. >> but we have a country that has been traumatized by almost four years of democratic leadership in this country. >> but california democrats like cachay, a nationally recognized trial lawyer, saw firsthand harris's ability to prosecute as california's attorney general. he says those skills will be a powerful asset on the national stage against former president trump, who's been convicted of 34 felonies. >> she was a phenomenal prosecutor. she was on top of i. that's the electricity that she's going to get flowing through our society. >> now. the big question is who would be vice president harris's running mate with michigan governor gretchen whitmer, now out cachette expects it to be someone with east coast appeal, like pennsylvania governor josh shapiro or kentucky governor andy beshear and dan and ama. those two names, of course, among a handful frequently

mentioned at this point. >> that's true. >> we'll talk a little bit more about some of those names in a moment as well. stephanie, thanks very much. >> but first, now joining us now is abc seven news insider phil matier phil, things have gotten interesting to say the least. yeah, definitely. let's start in chronological order. let's kind of go about this in an organized way. is this a done deal? >> it's about as close to a done deal as you can get instantly. kamala harris with the endorsement of joe biden, got the motion momentum going, as we've seen with the various endorsements. but these were all insider endorsements. okay. it's all coming out of washington. the second she's got the money, she's got 80 plus million dollars from the biden campaign, which automatically becomes her account. so she's far ahead of anybody else. and also she has the machine, she has control. a lot of the democratic convention, as far as delegates go. and of biden's campaign team, her first appearance there was to tell them all they're still working, only they're working for her. so she has that. and the biggest thing is, as of right now, she doesn't have anybody else saying they

want it, right? >> right. all right. >> well next big question who's going to be a running mate. and we have several possibilities as stephanie just mentioned, a few of them, pennsylvania governor josh shapiro, north carolina governor roy cooper getting a lot of attention, former astronaut, arizona senator mark kelly, kentucky governor andy beshear and illinois governor j.b. pritzker. a lot of options, and he picks on your part or what will be the deciding factor? >> well, they're always looking for what they call balance. they want to balance the ticket out. when trump ran, he was an outsider. so he took mike pence, who looked like a very staid kind of guy and used him as balance. barack obama went and got joe biden. one was young, one was older. so different regions of the country. exactly. so a lot of it is optics is what they talk about there. they say they bring this, they bring tha. but you're really voting for the top of the ticket and what you're hoping to is you pick somebody and there's sort of a myth that they can bring states with them or regions with them. that's not necessarily so. it's something just for the made a r.

it's your first pick. it's what people judge you on the pick as opposed to the big choice. it didn't work out well with john mccain and sarah palin. so what you're really looking for is something that's not going to be an embarrassment. that's what you're looking for. someone that doesn't outshine you, but somebody that can campaign and do that. any one of those would work. >> someone who doesn't have china but can contribute and is valuable. >> it's a tricky thing. >> it is. it's a delicate balance. okay so what about harris versus trump? >> well, that remains to be seen because the i have to tell you that before we had the debate and the whole meltdown on the democratic party, you know, the polls were not kind to joe biden, but they also weren't kind to kamala harris. i mean, 30 to 5 to 38% job approval ratings. so it's going going up against trump. she's going to be going up more. the democrats that i've talked to say it's got to be more than just attack donald trump. she has to give americans what they like the most, which is hope. that's what barack obama gave hope. we like sunshine. it can't just be vote for me or it's going to get

really troublesome. vote for me or we're going to lose democracy. it has to be okay. but if i vote for you, what is what's the future? what's the future? joe biden say, well, we're going to get the job done. well, what job? okay, that was part of his problem. so she has to come in with with some some. they say if she's going to beat trump, she has she can't just be against trump. she has to show an alternative to what are you going to do for me? right. what's the future? we america is built on hope, and she's got to bring that as part of the package. that could be a challenge. it's going to be really interesting. fascinating because she's from here. let's be honest about it. if we're getting calls and everything saying we're back on the political map, i'm for that. nancy pelosi, gavin newsom, uh- kamala harris yeah, let's go. >> all right. thanks, phil, very much. >> well, kamala harris's campaign says she raised $81 million in her first 24 hours as a candidate, the most of any presidential candidate in history. former democratic congress member and current san mateo county supervisor elect jackie speier put it into perspective today on abc seven news at three.

>> it absolutely surprises me. it surprises donald trump. i can assure you. now, having said that, we are not out of the woods. this is going to be a short but long campaign, and it is going to you know, test everyone's, ability to look beyond the lies, look beyond the, racism that we will certainly see. and the misogyny and, you know, speak to, goodness over evil. >> now, the attacks against vice president kamala harris have been rolling in since she announced her intent to replace president biden as the democratic presidential nominee. this happened, of course, as you know, over the weekend. now, some of the attacks have been on kamala harris, the politician, others have been personal digs and abc seven news anchor and race and social justice reporter julian glover is here now with a look at the attacks against vice president harris and why some are more personal. and it's

really interesting to explore. his story is new at six. >> julian hey there dan yeah, well, there are certainly valid criticisms of the vice president on her career, worldview, policies, even people saying she covered up president biden's declining stamina. many of these attacks are steeped in misogynoir. it's a term that speaks to the unique mix of misogyny and racism faced by black women, and are an attempt to other the vice president. of course, starting with her name borders are kamala harris and send her back to california. kamala harris, vice president kamala harris is no stranger to having her name mispronounced, but after nearly four years in the white house and four years prior as a headline making senator, this is still happenin. >> our border czar, kamala harris. >> kamala harris, columbia university associate professor doctor brandy summers suggest there's more to it. >> if it's not intentional, the intentional component is that they're not willing to learn how to say her name properly. it's

creating another othering, potential and say that she's too different to be a leader in this nation along with her name. >> it's also her experience that's under attack, but not what harris has done once she got a seat at the table. they're also attacking how she got that seat at the table 100. >> she was a d hire. he said he was going to hire tim burchett of tennessee, calling the vice president a d hire, a callback to diversity, equity and inclusion. >> and the expanded role that effort played in the aftermath of the police killing of george floyd. >> and so to call her a d hire, it's as if she would only have this role because of this emphasis on race and inclusion that undermines whatever experience she's had. >> and now the democratic party is calling on vice president harris to use that political experience to do something never done before in history mount a successful bid for the white house in just four months. doctor summers argues that asking a black woman to save the

day is also rooted in problematic tropes that paint black women as maternal figures and saviors. take this interaction from cbs's the drew barrymore show, for example. >> we all need a mom. i've been thinking that we really all need a tremendous hug in the world right now. we need you to be mamala of the country, black women are expected to be the ones to not only save individual households, but also kind of this national household. >> it becomes one of those things that's exhausting. >> now, these attacks on harris's identity are an extension of the culture wars we've waged, we've seen waged in the country over the last few years. she's faced these attacks, these criticisms. during her time as san francisco district attorney, as attorney general of california, as california senator, and, of course, as vice president. and these attacks certainly don't look to be dying down as she mounts her fight for the white house. dan. >> okay, julian. thanks very much. so where does kamala harris get her name from? julian looked into that as part of our

abc seven originals documentary, kamala harris to be the first. it's available to stream on demand on the abc seven bay area app. >> some trump supporters in the east bay claim they're being illegally forced to remove flags and signs from above highway 24. we talked to both caltrans and the chp about the rules at stories at 630 and still ahead on abc seven news at six lessons in patience for both parents and kids when it comes to cell phones. >> when a north bay school district may be asking of families this fall, it is 55 at the coast with some dense fog, 96 inland. >> that's why we have an excessive heat warning for our inland valleys. i'll tell you for how long. and a look at

leah lopez and 30 year old pedro david guadarrama ceron. both of them lived in san jose. rescuers found them face down in the water near west cliff drive. the fire department says it appears they were swept off the rocks by waves last tuesday. the woman, charged with killing a vacaville police officer last week was arraigned today on murder charges. 24 year old serena rodriguez was assigned a public defender and will undergo a mental competency examination to determine if she can stand trial. prosecutors filed a felony complaint accusing rodriguez with the murder of officer matthew bowen. fellow officers crowded the courtroom today to face the defendant, who said nothing during a three minute appearance. rodriguez is being held without bail and will

return to court august 19th. >> san francisco police shot and killed a man overnight in an alleyway that's a known as a trouble spot. it's willow street at van ness avenue. as we've reported here on abc seven news. neighbors have complained of ongoing drug dealing and substance abuse in that alley. san francisco police tell us this latest incident happened as officers tried to stop an armed robbery suspect. abc seven news reporter louis pena has several videos of what happened. >> this was the scene sunday night around 11:56 p.m. on san francisco's willow street. >> i heard from the distance cops shouting, put your hands out! >> on the bottom left, you can see a man with his hands out. drew youngwirth lives in the area and said he heard multiple gunshots coming from willow street's alley seconds before police surrounded this man. i heard probably 5 or 6 gunshots and then looked out the window. >> he just kind of stayed there and eventually they like a swarm

of police, just ran over and kind of tackled him. and i think they took a gun from him or he was armed. >> in this video, the men can be seen on a stretcher, according to sfpd. he later died in the hospital. so what led to this? in a video obtained by our media partner, the san francisco standard, police can be heard yelling stop before shooting an unidentified man as he ran away from police towards van ness. in a statement, the police department said officers were investigating an armed robbery that occurred on mcalester street. before the shooting, the san francisco police officers association claims their review of this video shows the suspect fired at officers first, before officers returned fire. drew confirmed seen a firearm left behind. this latest incident adds to a number of complaints from residents and merchants, who say illicit activity on willow street is getting worse. >> willow, between van ness and

larkin, is probably the most drug infested two blocks of san francisco during the day. >> randy shaw, with the tenderloin housing clinic, said this area has also become a magnet for crime. last month, during a police operation, officers arrested 43 people with outstanding arrest warrants. >> all these fugitives who committed crimes nowhere near the tenderloin. but they come and they think they can be safe in the tenderloin. that sends a message about how the city is treating the neighborhood. >> the executive director of the tenderloin merchants association said that the city has been investing in cleaning up the area, but says merchants want more. the city has been deploying resources and cleaning operations, and the alley basically nonstop, so we're grateful for that. >> but, you know, the fact of the matter is that willow is still not in a good place. >> sfpd confirmed the officer involved shooting is being investigated by the district attorney's office in san francisco. luz pena, abc seven news. >> all right, you can feel the

temperature a bit warmer today. >> it was really steamy. and meteorologist lisa argen is tracking that for us and letting us know. lisa, how much more of this we can expect. >> well, the peak heat arrives tomorrow. dan and we're looking at temperatures once again in the triple digits. so it has been a hot july. no doubt about it. but the marine layer helping us along the shoreline san francisco, oakland, pleasant, even the peninsula. but look at those lightning strikes. the crest of the sierra nevada and into nevada, getting hit with lightning and some fires, possibly as we go through tomorrow and even wednesday, this ridge of high pressure is going to hold on for the next 48 hours. right now, it's about the low clouds and fog bumping up to the shoreline, and we'll see that again. but the marine layer has shrunk to a couple hundred feet, and that has allowed for some dense fog right along the coast as that high pressure ridge pushes down on the atmosphere. we have a an advisory in the orange here for the inland valleys of the north bay. the mountains look at the

peninsula here and the south ba. but an excessive heat warning for danville, livermore, the hills and the valleys of the east bay. and that's because the temperatures peaking over 100 degrees. and tomorrow that ridge strengthens. so we'll look at more dense fog along the shoreline and see the hottest day. it is 63 downtown, 72 in oakland. how about 82 in hayward. that is a warm up for the bay shore. 87 in san jose. we've got another warm day on the way tomorrow. but what about that 55 half moon bay? and there's a look at all that fog. the golden gate bridge, 85, santa rosa. so numbers could be a lot hotter in the north bay. this is not going to happen. so that's why we just have the advisory for petaluma, santa rosa, the delta though concord and livermore well into the 90s. still, it's a warm night for you. and we jumped 21 degrees today. and our inland valleys compared to 24 hours ago. right now it is 17 degrees warmer in livermore, with 16 degrees warmer in hayward. so you get the idea. right? so triple digit

inland heat again tomorrow and we're always cautious with the hot dry fuels the delta breeze getting going through your tuesday. so that's going to allow for a breeze and the relative humidity 20% in the afternoon. but by the time we get to thursday friday it's cooler. and the weekend we're looking at or below average. we also have a coastal flood advisory until 2:00 in the morning, where the high tide will be about 1 a.m. before that, and we'll see 6.5ft where we could see san pablo bay. the lower elevations here, the sloughs, marshes, and maybe some parking lots flooded overnight. 50s for most of us. but where it's been super hot, we'll be near 70. perhaps in the mid 60s by the early morning hours. look how friday looks in the mid 50s. the coolest day. friday and saturday. low 80s inland. back to the 60s around the bay shore and into sunday. just a little bit of change but watch out for tomorrow. we are sizzling from 102 in livermore. 103 in antioch. look at that. 104 by

the delta and up in the north bay. it's going to be a hot one into the 90s. santa rosa and napa, the peninsula mid 80s in the accuweather seven day forecast. the hottest day tomorrow, some cooling then on wednesday, more so on thursday and then it's going to feel like spring, friday, saturday. but then we'll warm it up a little bit sunday and monday. so it has been really hot inland for. yeah for a long time now. yeah. >> the weekend will be a nice break. yeah. thanks, lisa. >> all right. coming up here next. the continued problems from the crowdstrike outage. which airline is hit the hardest. stay with us

positive territory today, after president biden dropped his reelection bid. the dow the nasdaq, gained 280 and the s&p added 59. crowdstrike dropped 13.5, continuing to fall after last week's outage. that continues to plague some industries. >> days after the crowdstrike it outage, we're still seeing the ripple effects. delta airlines is one of the global companies hit the hardest. there were mass flight cancellations for the

fourth straight day. more than 950 flights and counting were scrubbed today. the i.t. outage knocked out a critical crew scheduling system. hospitals, courts and media organizations that rely on crowdstrike were also brought down. congress has called on the company ceo to testify about what happened. the

francisco at the beginning of the pandemic as a way to get people outside. while social distancing. but this effort to build a better bay area has created division among some residents. >> abc7 news reporter leah melendez looked closer at the issue and the changes that might come. you're here with what you found. >> yeah, well, i can assure you, if you live in san francisco, this is definitely a talker. now san francisco has 19 slow streets created during the pandemic and made permanent in 2022 by the board of supervisor. now, the city is now more divided than ever between those who insist they have transformed their community and those who

say the pandemic is over and those slow streets are not needed. this is sanchez street in san francisco's noe valley neighborhood. families share a blissful moment while in the midst of this concrete valley, all on a so-called slow street. it's been incredible. >> i think it's the best way we've met our neighbors and the community. you know, you you see kids learning how to ride their bikes. you grab coffee with people you've never met before. >> just to refresh your memory, the sfmta introduced the concept of slow streets as a way to incorporate other ways of getting around the city, such as bicycling, running, walking and mind you, they are not closed to cars. the city just wants you to drive slowly. but who wants to drive at a snail's pace when you can drive on other streets? and that's how the slow street controversy began. san franciscans have voiced their opinions at city hall. not every neighbor living on or near lake

street in the inner richmond district has embraced their slow street. in fact, some argue the program was forced upon them. someone even wrote communism on this sign. we heard there have been tense moments between pedestrians, bicyclists and drivers. we wanted to see if that was true and decided to set up a chair to observe. we found more than your average number of cars insisting on driving on lake street, some even exceeding the suggested 15 miles an hour in noe valley. the slow street program has also been divisive. >> we see guys, they'll yell at people in the street for being in the street, get out of the street right next to a sign here. so that's the kind of response that we're getting from the motorists in this city. >> motorists, some say slow streets are safe streets. so far, 14 pedestrians have died in traffic accidents in the city.

however, no one has ever been killed on a slow street. a few locals have also complained that having a slow street has increased the amount of traffic on the adjacent streets. abc seven news was able to analyze san francisco county transportation data available for roads adjacent to slow streets, though data was not available for all of them. the ones we could review actually showed little to no traffic impact on nearby streets since the program was adopted, but even those who want to keep them say there are still issues that need to be addressed. for example, a few construction workers now double park for most of the day on this slow street. >> you know, there's a lot of contractors or people who feel like because it is a slow street, they can just park. they're not pulling permits. they're not, you know, trying to do things the right way. they're just doing it because it's easy for them. i understand that, but

it does make it a hazard for people who are biking or walking, you know, because it forces them into oncoming traffic and it's very unsafe. >> she told us there is little to no enforcement, which is the responsibility of the san francisco municipal transportation agency. the sfmt. >> we are doing our best to allocate our limited resources in a way that we see meets the highest value need for that time. >> sfmta encourages people to report all incidents to the 3-1-1 customer service center. neighbors and merchants were adamantly opposed to having a slow street on a section of west portal avenue. back when it was proposed. they fought both their district supervisor and the sfmta and were successful. george wooding of the midtown terrace homeowners association said the slow street would have hurt business owners. >> what you do is you end up excluding a tremendous number of potential customers in an area, and it just destroys the merchants. >> we pulled every leading san francisco mayoral candidate mark

farrell said he supports most slow streets. everyone else told us they favor keeping all slow streets, but believe improvements are needed. how will you improve things to fit the specific needs of each community? >> yes. so through a lot of detailed outreach and engagement and listening and learning from those community members, what are their unique needs? we can then design which are the particular interventions. so this is really a conversation and in collaboration with community to make sure that each street meets the particular needs of that place. >> so the sfmta has promised to do more community outreach when proposing the next group of slow streets. and by the way, they have already announced that expansion will happen in the upcoming years as part of the city's bicycle and rolling plan. i think people just want to be heard. yeah, they certainly do. >> all right. thank you. liane. >> developing news calls today from capitol hill for the head of the secret service to resign. secret service director karen cheatle testified today in front

of a house committee about security lapses during the assassination attempt on former president donald trump. cheatle acknowledged that the secret service was told about a suspicious person before the shooting, but she repeatedly refused to answer questions, citing an ongoing investigation. >> have you provided all audio and video recordings in your possession to this committee? as we asked on july 15th? yes or no, i would have to get back to you. that is a no you're full of today. you're just being completely dishonest. >> also today, missouri senator josh hawley said a whistleblower told his office that there was supposed to be a security officer posted on the roof of the building where the gunman was, but that person abandoned the post because of the heat. >> some trump supporters in the east bay claim they're being illegally forced to remove flags and signs from a highway 24 overpass. >> abc seven news reporter leslie brinkley took a closer look at the situation above the highway. >> i received a call about the flags hanging on state property,

and my job is to come out here and ask them to be removed. >> lisa disbrow with patriots of contra costa shared videos with abc seven news of her encounter with caltrans recently, when she was told to remove american flags and trump signs on the el curtola boulevard overpass over highway 24 in lafayette. that overpass has become popular, with groups hoping to engage motorists, but this year, signs were posted on the bridge stating it is unlawful to affix post or leave flag signs or banners. >> the sign is a is an intimidation strategy. it is meant to look legal and authoritative. disbrow says she's been told to take down their flags seven times since memorial day, because the state agencies fielded complaints. >> the only reason i'm here right now is because we have something on the fencing. >> that's the violation. >> why is it that only patriots of contra costa, a maga group, has been removed? then why can

the jews come up at 4:00 to 630 and put theirs up? why can hamas help pro-palestinians put theirs up? why can other groups come up and put theirs up? my first amendment doesn't evaporate because you don't like it. >> but caltrans responded to the accusations with a statement saying caltrans is content neutral. posting of messages or objects on overpasses or fencing creates a distraction for motorists. chp went on to say it is illegal to attach or otherwise hang any sort of sign or banner on an overpass fence. it is not illegal to stand there holding the same sign or banner, unless they said it creates an unsafe condition for the freeway below city of lafayette said they are abiding by state policy. meanwhile, disbrow vows to continue putting up flags and banners in the east bay. i'm leslie brinkley, abc seven news. >> a question to think about

cornell bernard has reaction from parents and the experts. >> it's a decision many parents have to make during back to school time to give their kids a smartphone or not. >> from the children's point of view, really important for emergencies. you need that feeling of connection and quick access. >> the novato unified school district is hoping parents of elementary and middle school students will think twice before arming their kids with smartphones, the superintendent says. this summer, the district's administrative team is reviewing and developing our cell phone policies and expectations using successful models from other school districts. the district is considering the wait until eighth pledge, in which parents pledge to withhold smartphones from students until the end of eighth grade. the cell phone pledge follows an assault on a female student at sinaloa middle school by a group of other girls in may, video of the assault was posted on social media. >> i think it's really important to have a partnership with families. >> john carroll is marin county

they're ready to take the no cell phone pledge. what do you think of that? >> i think that's a great idea. i think they are a problem, and i would definitely support that in marin county. >> cornell, bernard. abc seven news. >> interesting debate. all right. tomorrow will be the hottest day of the week. see the temperatures where you live in lisa's updated s

mayor once lived in daly city. >> truly very happy for izumisano city to become city with the city. by recognizing this connection, i hope that these two cities and the peoples like you will flourish. the relationship in the years to come, to come the mayor will present the key to the city at tonight's city council meeting. >> that is very nice. i wonder if it's cooler in izumisano. >> i feel like anywhere is cooler at this point. lisa. yeah, that's right. >> we're still in the 90s in our inland valleys, but that heat has not reached the shoreline. an excessive heat warning for our inland valleys. and you can see the advisory highlighted in orange there for the north bay, the santa cruz mountains and the north bay interior mountains. so we are looking at still some warm temperatures. 96 in livermore, right now, as well as brentwood and concord. and you see that 65 at sfo, 55 half moon

bay. and as we move up to the north bay, we're in the 80s and 90s. it will be hotter tomorrow. overnight tonight we are looking at temperatures dropping off to the upper 60s inland, while the rest of us will be in the 50s. so how much hotter tomorrow? anywhere from a degree to about four degrees warmer. and that will put you up over 100 degrees again in our inland valleys. but notice those 80s and 90s elsewhere, so certainly could be a lot hotter. their highs today from 102 or tomorrow, i should say, in concord to the mid and upper 80s on the peninsula, some 90s up in the north bay, and the accuweather seven day forecast, the hottest day tuesday cooling on wednesday we'll be out of the triple digits inland, but the real cooling inland will happen closer to the end of the workweek. and you'll notice we're below average for part of the weekend. >> that will be nice. yeah. thanks lisa. >> all right. sports director larry beil is here. what you got for us? you know, i'm thinking about the weather. >> maybe tomorrow i'll try to put an egg on my head and see if it cooks. right.

>> i know we're going to film that, aren't we? >> well, yeah, i mean, i have to use it for something. i mean, pretty much, you know, inactive uh- steph curry playing a couple of roles today for team usa, including spokesman and making plays against germany and team usa's final olympic tune up. sports i i only meant to order five. there's not enough money in my account for these. i'm gonna get charged. two things i just can't deal with. overdraft charges. and garden gnomes. but your bmo smart advantage checking account gives you an extra day to avoid an overdraft fee.

nice to see a bank cutting people some slack. mistakes happen. and we give you time to correct them. so, you don't like gnomes huh? what about that one? that one i like. a lot. ♪ bmo ♪

different walks of life, different cities, different upbringings. i think the last thing in our mind we ever have is carrying a flag representing our country during the olympics. so i understand that right now, in a country that's so divided, i hope this this moment and that moment will, you know, unite us or bring us together, even for that split, even for those split seconds or those those hours that we're traveling across that water in paris. so i will hold that responsibility with a lot of honor and just appreciate it. once again, thank you, michelle. >> warriors star steph curry breaking the news to lebron james that he would be the flagbearer for team usa in the paris olympics. and lebron was front and center today in the final tune up for team usa against germany. they needed him to be lebron ready to put on a show in london. kevin durant, though still out with a calf injury. first 30s lebron with authority reverse jam. he's 39 years old. whatever he's eating,

i want some second quarter team usa with a d james get out. jrue holiday finds an open steph curry for three of his 13 points. still hot shooting the three ball well one of seven from deep. but the us led by seven at the half. fourth quarter. now things get a little tense here germany actually went up two. curry behind the back on the drive. plus the foul. we're tied at 75. moments later team usa on the break. curry no. look behind the back to devin booker. circus shot team america is grabbing momentum. four minutes left. it's lebron. ageless wonder he ain't stopping that with the left usa up by only a point. 130 to go james. no fear. dagger three. he had 20 points and six boards. so he and steph celebrate a tough 92 to 88 win. they finish five. and oh. in these exhibition games group play starts sunday team usa against the joker and serbia. the 49 ers open training camp tomorrow. their first practice will be on wednesday. and at this point the expectation is that brandon aiyuk will not be

there. aiyuk is entering the final year of his contract. he wants a long term extension problem. the wide receiver market has absolutely exploded in the off season. it's $30 million a year on the high end. the niners don't want to go there. aiyuk is on the books to make $14 million this year. now he's expressed his unhappiness on social media several times. he's asked for a trade. espn's adam schefter says the 40 niners absolutely have no interest in trading brandon aiyuk. >> now they want to get a long term deal done with ioc, and if you're the 40 niners, why would you trade brandon aiyuk or deebo samuel either one for draft pick compensation in 2025? when you're trying to win a super bowl now, it makes no sense. my guess would be that iu i'm guessing here doesn't show up to training camp. not there. right. and tries to force the issue here. and then we see if the two sides can work out a deal or whether he wants to continue to be difficult. they want to find a way to keep all these guys for

this season. and then we'll see what happens after the year, like adam schefter, i think i'm going to start doing sportscasts for my car sports on abc seven sponsored by smart and final. >> circling back to team usa, they're the prohibitive favorites to win gold, but they barely squeaked by south sudan a couple of days ago. and today against germany, they were down several times. >> are they dogging it a bit? no, no no no. >> it's an all star team and none of these guys are used to playing with each other, whereas the other international squads, you know, they have years and years of experience and chemistry. so this is not automatic by any means. okay. >> yeah. thanks very much. >> all right. and that is it for this edition of abc seven news. thank you for joining us. i'm ama daetz and i'm dan ashley for lisa argen larry beil all of us here. >> we appreciate your time as you enjoy this lovely view. know that it's going to be hot again tomorrow. so enjoy your evening. we'll see you tonight. good luck.
