The combination of elite shooting and ball movement kept the Spurs defense off balance as the home crowd kept the environment hostile for the Spurs. It was a good learning experience for […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo, former NBA MVP and one of the league’s best big men, is a hard match-up for literally anyone. After Toronto was able to […]

Mohamed Salah has seemed somewhat diminished this season, admitting difficulty both coping with the loss of Diogo Jota and the integration of new players — and it’s also worth saying that exits to other players who moved to other sides would have had an impact as well.
