Los Angeles is playing on the second night of a back-to-back and will be taking on Indiana without LeBron James, Deandre Ayton and Maxi Kleber. The trio was ruled out on Friday afternoon. The Lakers will now have […]
After sending Bobby McMann to Seattle, the Maple Leafs have traded Scott Laughton to Los Angeles for a 2026 third-round pick that could become a second-round pick if the Kings make the playoffs this season.

One deadline to another, he's here and then gone.
The Toronto Maple Leafs have made a second buzzer-beater trade, this time sending Scott Laughton to the Los Angeles Kings . It's a curious move by the Kings, who are out of the playoff picture right now and, after losing Kevin Fiala for the season, are acquiring a pending unrestricted free agent in Laughton.

If it is not obvious, the Dodgers and the United States are merely borrowing Shohei Ohtani, as most recently evidenced by Ohtani’s recent batting practice session at the Tokyo Dome in preparation for the upcoming World Baseball Classic. With that in mind, in November 2025, MLB announced a documentary film about the 2025 Tokyo Series, […]
While the Knicks have enjoyed a nice little 15-5 stretch that has seen their defensive rating jump into the top 10, and come away with victories against some good teams like the Spurs, Raptors, Rockets, Celtics, Lakers, and Nuggets, everyone knows that much of the Knicks’ postseason success rides on the availability of their backup […]
For the second consecutive trade deadline it appears that general manager Julien BriseBois is bringing a player back into the organization. Last year it was Yanni Gourde. This year it’s Corey Perry. Corey Perry to Tampa Bay from LA — Elliotte Friedman (@FriedgeHNIC) March 6, 2026 The rumored cost is a second-round pick.
