How the puzzle works
Connections: Sports Edition is a New York Times game launched in association with The Athletic. Players sort 16 words into four groups of four. The cited Mashable article says the game is available in a browser or on mobile and allows up to four wrong guesses before the game ends; it describes the group colors in increasing difficulty order as yellow, green, blue, and purple. These rule details are reported by that article and are not independently confirmed here.
