The Chicago Bulls’ best player, point guard Josh Giddey , had been in the midst of a fringe All-Star season (fine, fine, maybe a fringe All-Star injury replacement season). But he’s also been out of commission for the last two weeks with a hamstring strain.
With Chicago set to square off against lottery teams three times in the next six days, the team could certainly use as many healthy bodies as it can get to notch easy wins.
According to Joel Lorenzi of The Athletic , Giddey has be...
The Mavericks are back home after a three-game road trip to face the Brooklyn Nets for a second time this season. Their first matchup was exactly one month ago, where Dallas won 119-111. This time around, the Mavericks will be without Anthony Davis and possibly P.J. Washington, while the Nets will not have first-round pick […]
The farewell tour LeBron James will go on after announcing his retirement will be as marketable as it will be memorable. As is the nature of life in 2026, everyone will be trying to get a piece of the pie. It’s with that in mind that Monday’s news feels a bit like a soft launch […]
The Edmonton Oilers head to Chicago tonight to face a Blackhawks team that’s been through absolute chaos recently. An illness bug ripped through the roster, taking out five starters at one point. They had to call up multiple AHL players just to ice a lineup, including an emergency goalie. It was a mess. But here’s…
The Thunder are frauds! That’s what r/nba and the talking heads are having you believe, and it’s not hard to see why following a 6-6 stretch. Still, the OKC discourse has swung too far in the opposite direction. Remember, they were only one of two teams (along with the 73-win Warriors) to ever start a […]
The Blackhawks look to continue their strong start to 2026 when they face the Edmonton Oilers on Monday night at the United Center.
When these two teams met in Edmonton back on Nov. 1, the Oilers were still in their typical early-season malaise, owning just a 5-4-3 record before beating the Hawks 3-2 in overtime . But Edmonton hit the gas around Thanksgiving, going 11-5-1 in late November and most of December to surge from outside of the playoff picture to second place in the Pacific Divi...
Josh Hart is the literal heart of the Knicks. It’s not just his name. I don’t need to regale you on what Hart does well. We’ve seen it over the past three-ish seasons of him in the orange and blue. He hustles, he’s a good secondary playmaker, he’s an exceptional rebounder, etc. Some fans, though, […]
Source Right now, the playoff road feels a little less bumpy for Seattle and Denver. Both teams earn first-round byes after finishing on top of their conferences, and that’s no small thing. Fewer games mean fewer chances for chaos, bad Continue reading The Super Bowl Matchups That Could Swing Betting Action →
Like many youthful teams in 2025-26, the Chicago Blackhawks have yo-yoed up and down this season. After a surprisingly good start, then free-falling as the weather got colder, are the Blackhawks back on the come-up? That’s what their fans hope for ahead of tonight’s matchup against the Edmonton Oilers. Connor Bedard is back after nearly…
NBA trade season is on! With the Bucks sure to be active on the market, Brew Hoop is here to do your homework on trade candidates for you. We’ve already covered Jerami Grant and Zach LaVine, with more eye-catching names ahead. Today, we’re discussing Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray! The Player Dejounte Murray, 29, 6’4”, 180 […]
The Seattle Seahawks have had their bye week (with a couple of practices mixed in), and now it’s time to prepare for Saturday’s NFC Divisional Round showdown with the San Francisco 49ers. It’s not often that a team plays the same opponent twice in a row, but that’ll be the case for the Seahawks, whose […]
The San Antonio Spurs jumped out to an early lead against the Minnesota Timberwolves but could not finish strong as they fell to their Western Conference counterparts late in the game. Victor Wembanyama led all players with 29 points while Keldon Johnson chipped in 15 points off the bench. Luke Kornet along with Julian Champagnie […]
“It comes with responsibility,” Jordi Fernández said post-game Sunday. “Responsibility to take the shot when you open, responsibility to box out when you have to. Obviously, the 19 second chance points — once again, if we don’t rebound, we don’t win. We’ve been the number one defensive rebounding team for a stretch of games where […]
What have they got to lose? Besides a lot of games against lottery teams, that is. It’s getting frustrating, isn’t it? I tried to warn against panic. Perhaps that was projection. It may have been an ill-advised attempt at manifestation. It feels awfully trite now. The Rockets have lost three straight and four of their […]
On today’s episode, Ryan Eichten and Leo Sun go over the Minnesota Timberwolves‘ 104-103 win over the San Antonio Spurs, the road loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, and much more: — The battle between Anthony Edwards and Victor Wembanyama on Sunday was an instant NBA regular-season classic. The game was filled with heavyweight punches from […]
Somehow, some way, the San Francisco 49ers are moving on to the divisional round of the NFC playoffs. Despite key mistakes, another devastating injury, and the second-half incompetence of the Philadelphia Eagles’ offense, the 49ers held on for a 23-19 victory to survive and advance and take on the Seattle Seahawks next week. There were […]
The Miami Dolphins started their search for a new head coach over the weekend, conducting a virtual interview with Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak and requesting interviews with several other potential hires. Included in the list of targets for the Dolphins is the biggest name on the market this year: John Harbaugh. After being […]
Conor Gallagher has played his final game for Atlético de Madrid. Gallagher is returning to England as a new player for Tottenham Hotspur, which agreed a €40 million deal with Atlético on Monday to bring the ex-Chelsea midfielder back to the Premier League. Matteo Moretto reported earlier in the day that Aston Villa had taken […]
I refuse to read too much into this one. You hear me? Won’t do it. Can’t do it. Under threat of fines, banishment, or even death, I simply will not do it. Every person has to have a code, and mine is that I won’t read too much into the Spurs blowing a 19-point lead […]
A 4-3 shootout defeat to the Los Angeles Kings stings, but the Vasily Podkolzin–Leon Draisaitl–Kasperi Kapanen line was a silver lining for the Edmonton Oilers, keeping their hot streak alive by combining for two goals in the game. Kapanen returned to the lineup three games ago, joining Podkolzin and Draisaitl on the second line, and…
It’s been a really fun weekend in Chicago, and now we’re right back into Monday, dodging the Blues and seeing Red. The Bulls have a long week ahead: four games in six days, starting tomorrow against the Houston Rockets. If they can wrap this stretch with at least three wins against mostly non-playoff teams, I’d say this weekend’s happiness has a real chance to survive all the way to next Sunday.
Let’s talk Bulls basketball.
The Bulls will be taking on the Houston Rockets at a very ...

The Sixers were rolling a bit. They’d won five of six. Joel Embiid and Paul George played six straight games together. Outside of a loss to the Hospital Nuggets last Monday, things were looking good heading into Sunday night’s matchup against the Raptors. But Embiid popped up on the injury report as out, now with […]
The Utah Jazz (13-25) are kicking off a four-game roadtrip tonight in Cleveland, taking on the Cavaliers (22-18). After teetering between tanking and a play-in position, the Jazz have slid the in the standings to the sixth-worst record in the NBA. While this is good for Utah’s odds of retaining their first-round draft pick this […]
The Atlanta Hawks notched a second consecutive victory on their four-game Western Conference road-trip, toppling the Golden State Warriors 124-111 at Chase Center on Sunday night. Nickeil Alexander-Walker led six Hawks in double-digit scoring — and three Hawks with 20 or more points — with 24 points, Jalen Johnson added 23 points and 11 rebounds, […]
