The Miami Heat have lost four of the last five games and are currently in the midst of one of the most difficult stretches this season. And it isn’t getting any easier. After three consecutive double-digit road losses to the Minnesota Timberwolves, Indiana Pacers and OKC Thunder, respectively— the Heat are back home. However, they […] The post GAME PREVIEW: Heat back home to host Suns amid three-game skid appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
Tari Eason has become an unheralded player. Such is life for “glue guys” in the NBA. They do things that don’t always show up on the stat sheet. They impact the game without always impacting the box score. Fans tend to overlook them at times. And front offices underestimate their value. This sums up Eason’s […]
It’s a big night around The Association with a matchup of two superstars on the horizon!

The month of December wasn’t a great one for Winnipeg Jets’ goaltenders, as it only provided Connor Hellebuyck & Eric Comrie with one win each. Now that the calendar has flipped over to January, the masked men have already equaled that plateau before the mid-month mark. The True North franchise is currently on their 4th multi-game winning streak of the NHL’s 2025-26 campaign, after posting victories over the Los Angeles Kings & New Jersey Devils, and will be hoping to extend that versus t...
Prior to the Knicks’ win over the Trail Blazers, and certainly before their win over the Clippers, the fanbase went through a non-insignificant level of panic. How much trepidation they felt varied, but it was clear that fans were becoming more and more concerned with some of the coaching decisions, the level of play, the […]
Wake up, Chicago, it’s game day! Tonight the Chicago Bulls head to Texas to take on the Houston Rockets. This will be the first time these two teams face each other this season, so honestly, anything could happen (Houston are the favorites… cough cough). It’s also the first game of a back-to-back, so it would really help Chicago if the winner gets decided a little earlier than the final buzzer. And there’s plenty more to talk about too, including LeBron James and the newly reschedule...
The Edmonton Oilers had no issue with the Connor Bedard-less Chicago Blackhawks on Monday night, cruising to a 4-1 victory to open their mini two-game road trip in the Central Division. After a dominant first few minutes for the visiting team, Zach Hyman opened the scoring with five minutes left to go in the opening…
As the Dallas Mavericks continue to battle severe injury and a poor roster, it is only fair for some of us to turn a wandering eye towards what is happening in the college game. Some of the nation’s best have put forward their best performances to start the new year. However, this game is closer […]
The Philadelphia 76ers were able to get back in the win column on Monday evening, taking down the Toronto Raptors 115-102 just 24 hours after dropping an overtime game to the same opponent. One of the best moments of the game, however, wasn’t really about the game itself at all. With a comfortable double-digit lead […]

Following a disappointing end to their road trip, the Milwaukee Bucks face the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight at Fiserv. For whatever reason, the first game back from a road trip can be rough for the home team, so the Bucks must be ready to go. They played very well for most of the December 22 matchup, […]
The Seattle Seahawks are making a significant effort to get as many invested 12s in the seats as possible. Per Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times, the Seahawks are actively discouraging fans from reselling season tickets prior to the start of the team’s playoff run. This continues a campaign that was initially started last spring, […]

By the time the final whistle blew on Monday night’s Third Round FA Cup tie, Liverpool had secured a quite comfortable looking 4-1 victory over League One’s Barnsley. For those watching the match play out, though, it perhaps hadn’t seemed quite so comfortable. After scoring on a pair of quite spectacular—and quite unlikely to lead […]
With two days off between games, it’s time for a Washington Wizards checkup. After a 5-2 binge (7-5 over a 12-game stretch), their record stands at 10-28. That’s the fourth worst winning percentage in the league, and more or less in line with what the oddsmakers thought — preseason over/under lines pegged them as a […]
The Oilers got back in the win column on Monday night with a 4-1 victory over the Blackhawks, shaking off Saturday’s frustrating loss to the Kings. That’s not to say that getting the win in Chicago was smooth sailing for 60 minutes, but it was the kind of response you want to see after letting…
The Miami Heat’s 14-7 start to the 2025-26 season feels like a distant memory. They are back fighting to avoid their fourth-straight play-in at 20-19. And it’s become clearer they need an(other) injection of life. Should that be Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant? He’s one of the most polarizing players in the league. But he […] The post POLL: Would you trade Tyler Herro for Ja Morant? appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
Believe it or not, the Knicks have the day off. New York will keep waiting to welcome their heroes back home, as they still have to visit Sacramento and Golden State this week before a grand return to MSG to host the hot Suns. Here’s a bunch of chatter from the last few hours. Mike […]

In an NBA season already defined by jaw-dropping shots and highlight dunks, Victor Wembanyama — the San Antonio Spurs’ 7-foot-4 franchise centerpiece — gave the basketball world something truly different: a viral flying kick that wasn’t meant to score points, but redefined the limits of human athleticism. The viral moment came during warmups before the […]
