Following a weekend of catastrophic injuries that saw their star backcourt ruled out for at least the regular season, the Lakers still had a game to play on Sunday in Dallas. The ripple effects of this will reverberate not only through the summer but also force an already thin roster to completely restructure its style […]
We are four games from the end of this season. You may be surprised to learn that the season began in October and not last February, a time that’s often felt like one continuous trudge through drama and losing for 15 months. The light, and absolutely spectacular rookie season from Cooper Flagg, has maintained its […]
Poor Raptors fans have PTSD over the Celtics. I remember one game before they won their championship when the Celtics were having Gino time during a big win and the Raptors' announcers said that's something the Celtics do after every game, not realizing it was just in big blowouts because the Celtics always blew them out.

Rising sophomore guard Matt Able is headed to the transfer portal, per reports on Monday morning. He’s also testing the NBA Draft waters, but in all likelihood will be playing college basketball next season, just not in Raleigh. All you can really ask after a coaching change is that the players still on the team […]
The Atlanta Dream loaded up last offseason, adding Brittney Griner and Brionna Jones to an emerging squad through free agency.

We’re less than three weeks out from the 2026 NFL Draft in Pittsburgh. The Seattle Seahawks will be waiting for awhile before they’re on the clock, such is life when you pick at 32 because you won the Super Bowl. Regardless of who they pick, it’s inevitable that there will be some strong initial reactions […]
All eyes are on the North Carolina Tar Heels as they attempt to find their new head coach for the men’s basketball program. All eyes are also on the Chicago Bulls, who have had way more of an eventful 2026 than they likely bargained for. In the middle of all of this is Billy Donovan, […]
With just over two minutes left in the third quarter of last Friday’s Sixers-Timberwolves game, Andre Drummond ambled to the scorer’s table. Nothing out of the ordinary about that. The Sixers’ backup center was surely about to give Joel Embiid a break. Except he wasn’t. Drummond, who to that point had not played in the game, checked in not […]

The Seattle Seahawks may have the fewest picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, but the Super Bowl champions are in an advantageous position of not having too many glaring needs on their roster. While cornerback, running back, edge rusher, and possibly safety are positions that figure to be at the top of the “needs” list, […]
This week the Las Vegas Raiders added a new quarterback to the roster in Kirk Cousins. Cousins has familiarity with head coach Klint Kubiak working with him in 2021 with the Minnesota Vikings. He will be the bridge to eventual number one pick Fernando Mendoza this season. There has been controversy with his contract after […]

UNC’s search to find its next head coach grinds on. Tommy Lloyd signed an extension to stay at Arizona after getting the Wildcats to their first Final Four in 25 years.
