Anthony Davis went to the locker room late in the fourth quarter of the Dallas Mavericks’ 116-114 loss at the Utah Jazz on Thursday, after brushing his hand against Lauri Markkanen’s jersey as Markkanen drove past Davis along the baseline on his way to two of his game-high 33 points. Davis doubled over in pain […]
No one ever thought it would end this way, and yet here we are. On Wednesday in the middle of home game against the New Orleans Pelicans, Young was salary dumped traded for CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert. That was it. It’s a sad ending that precipitated quickly — quicker than all of us can […]
Good morning Gang Green Nation! The New York Jets have requested their first interview for defensive coordinator, asking to interview Minnesota Vikings passing defense coordinator Daronte Jones. Jones has never been a defensive coordinator at the NFL level. If he were to be hired by the Jets that would give the Jets a first time […]
The Sixers are coming off a much-needed bounce-back win at home against the Washington Wizards, shaking off a disappointing loss. There won’t be much time to savor it, though, as they begin one of the toughest stretches of their regular-season schedule with a road matchup against the Orlando Magic. The Magic opened the year in […]

We’re back! Welcome to the five highest-IQ plays of the week! Sure, we love the high-flying dunks and the deep, off-the-dribble step-back threes, but this is a place for the under-the-radar plays that might not get the credit they deserve. The plays that get the basketball sickos and nerds out of their chairs. The plays […]
Sidney Stewart was named ESPN’s 19th-best freshmen in the country for the past season, in a list released Wednesday. It’s hard to argue with the former three-star’s inclusion. Stewart exploded onto the scene in 2025, posting 4.5 sacks and seven tackles for loss in his first four games en route to seven sacks and 10.5 […]
Things have gone very well for the Boston Celtics thus far this season. Far better than just about anyone could have imagined. That alone is a victory and sets up the team for future success in the years to come. But from a current season perspective, it is merely a feel good story if the […]
While MLS attendance overall shrank by 5.36% in 2025, NYCFC's grew for the fourth consecutive year to average 21,853 per match — that's the highest since 2018.
Arizona stands at 15-0 on the season, and are 2-0 in Big 12 play to start conference play. A big reason why the Wildcats have not lost is because of their star-studded freshmen. Led by Koa Peat, who scored 30 points against the defending national champion Florida Gators in the season opener, he has become […]
The Knicks are back. Josh Hart is not. Here are some words. Mike Brown On embracing the recent losing streak: “I hope no one takes this the wrong way, but I embrace it. When you go through what we’ve gone through, nobody wants to lose, but it helps us be better. It helps me be […]
The Houston Rockets have been one of the league’s top-ranked offenses all season. Quite the surprise for an Ime Udoka-led group, which is generally carried by defensive execution. Houston’s offensive philosophy is largely predicated on dominating the glass and getting extra bites at the apple. Simple but effective. The more extra possessions, the more scoring […]
The Charlotte Hornets suffered their second last second loss in as many nights, this time at the hands of the Pacers. The post Recap/Analysis: Hornets lose another heartbreaker to the Pacers first appeared on At The Hive .
From the portal, to the basketball wins. Since my last Commute post (last Friday) we’ve posted 54 different articles on here and Rock M+. Mizzou football has added 11 different players since the portal opened last Friday, and that’s not including them signing Austin Simmons to an NIL deal, thus securing a commitment for, well […]

Coming off a tight win Tuesday night, the Dallas Mavericks took on the Utah Jazz looking for continued success, but lost a 116-114 contest in Salt Lake City similar to their last matchup with the Jazz when they allowed a big run to let one get away. Let’s get to the grades! Cooper Flagg: A […]
The Dallas Mavericks lost to the Utah Jazz, 116-114, but boy does Cooper Flagg love playing in Utah. He lead Dallas with 26 points, and was the only Maverick in the starting five to finish the game with a positive +/-, at +3. Lauri Markkanen led all scorers with 33 and was supported with 19 […]
The Dallas Mavericks (14-24) lost another soul-draining game, 116-114 to the Utah Jazz (13-24) at the Delta Center on Thursday, the team’s 17th clutch loss of the year. The Mavericks were led by Cooper Flaggs’ 26 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists. Anthony Davis chipped in 21 points and 11 rebounds but left the game […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers’ poor defense and bad starting lineup choice did them in as they fell to the Minnesota Timberwolves 131-122. The stats in the table below are from Cleaning the Glass. Now, let’s dive into the numbers.
The San Jose Sharks made an interesting trade today , potentially clearing the way for a larger deal in the near future. The team moved two defensemen, Jake Furlong and Ryan Ellis, along with a 2028 fourth-round pick to the Chicago Blackhawks for goaltender Laurent Brossoit, defenseman Nolan Allan and a 2028 seventh-round pick. (Small brag because I suggested a Furlong trade last week .) The picks are so far in the future, they’re inconsequential at this point for either team, so we’ll focus o...

Basketball is a super complicated game. Analytics have taken the sports from “put ball in hoop and stop other team from putting ball in hoop” to “leverage help defense around the nail to prevent penetration and kickouts to below-the-break threes.” There are a variety of strategies still to this day. The Houston Rockets utilize a […]
Over the Cap has just dropped their cap casualty rankings for the upcoming offseason, which includes four Green Bay Packers in their top 100 players. Only three teams have more plays on the list than the Packers: the Arizona Cardinals (nine), the Minnesota Vikings (seven) and the Washington Commanders (seven). Personally, I only think that […]
If I’m being honest, I didn’t really want to be at a basketball game tonight. On Wednesday, Renee Nicole Good, a wife and mother of three, was killed in Minneapolis by an agent of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). I will not be sharing the video here, but it is not hard to find. […]
