Peacock is the former Chief Executive Officer of USAA and brings 36 years of financial services leadership of a Fortune 100 financial services association serving 14 million military members across banking, insurance, and retirement solutions.

Widely recognized as a transformational leader at the forefront of customer experience innovation and operational excellence, Peacock’s experience spans large-scale property and casualty insurance, retail banking, enterprise risk management, asset management, technology, operations, sales, and marketing. As Chief Executive Officer, Peacock led USAA through a period of accelerated digital transformation, operational modernization, and economic disruption.

“Wayne’s depth of experience and his track record leading teams through technology transformation in complex industries will be a strong addition to our board,” said Patrick L. Dodd, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cotality. “As data, analytics, and AI continue to reshape housing, insurance, and capital markets, his expertise and support will accelerate Cotality’s continued growth and long-term strategic priorities.”

Peacock said Cotality’s role in the property ecosystem positions it at a consequential intersection of data, risk, and financial decision-making.

“Throughout my career, I’ve led organizations where customer trust, operational discipline, and financial strength were inseparable,” Peacock said. “Housing and insurance decisions are among the most important financial choices individuals and institutions make. As data and technology play an increasingly significant role in those decisions, Cotality has the opportunity and responsibility to deliver clarity, resilience, and long-term value. I look forward to contributing to the board as Cotality continues to scale and advances through this exciting next phase of its growth.”

Chuck Davis, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Stone Point Capital and a member of Cotality’s board, said Peacock’s experience aligns with the company’s evolution.

“Wayne has led through complexity at scale, with a disciplined approach to capital and operational execution,” Davis said. “His background strengthens the board as Cotality continues expanding its role as a mission critical provider of data and analytics to the real estate, property and casualty insurance, and broader financial services markets.”

Deven Parekh, Managing Director at Insight Partners and a member of Cotality’s board of directors, added:

“As property data and analytics become increasingly embedded in how housing and insurance markets operate, leadership experience across financial services and technology matters. Wayne brings that experience to the board at an important time for the company.”

NBA tipoff: Round 2 continues Friday with Knicks-76ers, Spurs-Timberwolves

What a difference a year makes.

Home teams are 7-1 entering Friday in the conference semifinals. Detroit is up 2-0 on Cleveland, Oklahoma City is up 2-0 on the Los Angeles Lakers, New York is up 2-0 on Philadelphia and San Antonio got a 1-1 split with Minnesota.

In other words, games went largely as seedings suggested they would.

That wasn't the case last season, when home teams went 2-6 in Games 1 and 2 of the conference semifinals. This is only the third time in the last 16 postseasons when home teams went 7-1 to start Round 2.

On Friday, it's a pair of Game 3s: New York at Philadelphia and San Antonio at Minnesota.

— Game 3, New York at Philadelphia, 7 p.m. EDT (Prime)

Series: New York leads 2-0.

Odds: 76ers by 1.5.

An overlooked part of New York's Game 2 win: After three consecutive blowout victories by the Knicks going back to Round 1, they dug deep in the fourth quarter — holding Philadelphia to 4 for 19 shooting in the final 12 minutes on Wednesday night.

— Game 3, San Antonio at Minnesota, 9:30 p.m. EDT (Prime)

Series: Tied 1-1.

Odds: Spurs by 4.5.

Expect a bounceback game from Anthony Edwards, if his knee allows. He was never in rhythm in Game 2 (at least, not the way he was at times in the Game 1 win) and the Timberwolves were minus-33 in his 24 minutes.

— Game 3, Detroit at Cleveland, 3 p.m. EDT (NBC/Peacock)

Series: Detroit, 2-0.

Odds: Cleveland by 4.5.

The Pistons have won five consecutive postseason games for the first time since 2008 — and three of them were while facing elimination in Round 1. Cleveland is now 2-10 in conference semifinal games over the past three seasons.

— Game 3, Oklahoma City at LA Lakers, 8:30 p.m. EDT (ABC)

Series: Oklahoma City, 2-0.

Odds: Oklahoma City by 8.5.

The Lakers are furious with elements of the officiating right now, and that might go one of two ways in Game 3. They'll either come out inspired on Saturday and make this a series, or the anger could work against them.

— Pistons 107, Cavaliers 97 for 2-0 series lead.

— Thunder 125, Lakers 107 for 2-0 series lead. The Lakers are angry.

A breakdown of this season's NBA awards:

— Twyman-Stokes Teammate of the Year: DeAndre Jordan, New Orleans.

— Hustle Award: Moussa Diabaté, Charlotte.

— Defensive Player of the Year: Victor Wembanyama, San Antonio.

— Clutch Player of the Year: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Oklahoma City.

— Sixth Man of the Year: Keldon Johnson, San Antonio.

— Sportsmanship Award: Derrick White, Boston.

— Most Improved Player: Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Atlanta.

— Rookie of the Year: Cooper Flagg, Dallas.

— Executive of the Year: Brad Stevens, Boston.

Among the announcements still to come:

— Most Valuable Player: Gilgeous-Alexander, Wembanyama or Denver's Nikola Jokic.

— Coach of the Year: Detroit's J.B. Bickerstaff, San Antonio's Mitch Johnson or Boston's Joe Mazzulla.

Defending champion Oklahoma City (-165) is favored to win the NBA title, according to oddsmakers.

The Thunder are followed by San Antonio (+325), New York (+800), Detroit (+1500), Minnesota (+5000), Cleveland (+6000), Los Angeles Lakers (+10000) and Philadelphia (+10000).

Favorites are 34-22 through Thursday in the 2026 NBA playoffs, a .607 winning percentage that might look pretty good on paper.

That is, until one looks at other recent playoff seasons.

Underdogs are on pace to have their best winning percentage in a playoff season in more than a decade. The last time underdogs won outright this often was the 2014 playoffs, when they won 44.9% of the time.

— Sunday: NBA draft lottery.

— May 10-17: NBA draft combine.

— May 17 or 19: Eastern Conference finals begin on ESPN and ABC.

— May 18 or 20: Western Conference finals begin on NBC and Peacock.

— June 3: Game 1, NBA Finals on ABC. (Other finals dates: June 5, June 8, June 10, June 13, June 16 and June 19).

— June 23: Round 1, NBA draft

— June 24: Round 2, NBA draft

“LeBron has the worst whistle of any star player I've ever seen.” — Lakers coach JJ Redick, on how LeBron James is officiated.

— LeBron James has attempted five free throws in the first two games of the series against Oklahoma City. It's the second fewest he's ever taken in the first two games of any of his 57 career playoff series. He took four in Games 1 and 2 vs. Golden State in 2023.

— The Pistons are 25-4 this season when Duncan Robinson makes at least four 3-pointers.
