San Antonio overcame a double-digit first-half deficit by tightening […]
The Houston Rockets came into Thursday night’s game boasting the NBA’s best home record at 15-3.

The ball movement was […]

With a little more than a week remaining until this season’s Feb. 5 NBA trade deadline, rumors are swirling about how the Chicago Bulls intend to handle their seven expiring contracts — eight if you count Julian Phillips’ team option for 2026-27, which seems unlikely to be picked up.

When Zion Williamson is healthy and motivated, there isn’t a player in the world like him, and there’s no one in the world who can stop him. Everyone knows he’s probably going left and going straight to the basket. Knowing it and stopping it are two different things. Williamson’s bizarre combination of mass, power and […]

For about 12 minutes, it looked like the San Antonio Spurs were going to pull off a big comeback against the New Orleans Pelicans. After going down 20 points in the third quarter, the Spurs came all the way back to take a 5-point lead with 5 minutes to go in the game. San Antonio […]
On Sunday night, the Spurs hosted the New Orleans Pelicans. Before the game, interim head coach James Borrego spoke with the media. If his name sounds familiar it is because he served as assistant coach to Gregg Popovich twice. The first time was from 2003-2010 where he started as assistant video coordinator before working his […]
The Spurs suffered one of their worst losses of the season. Their thrilling comeback attempt shouldn’t eclipse the fact that they once again seemed to underestimate a less talented team that was a lot hungrier than they were. The Pelicans played with physicality, and their reward was a 104-95 gutsy road win that should have […]
Despite a comeback attempt that spanned much of the fourth quarter, San Antonio was ultimately waylaid by one of its worst shooting efforts of the new year.
