If Jared Weiss from The Athletic is right, this will be the game we remember for years to come, because it is the night Victor Wembanyama took his next step toward greatness. With 11 ticks left in the game, the ball went into Wemby’s hands, a for a brief moment it felt like time stood […]

Friday Morning Fly By: No more bonus hockey

*The West Coast trip continues, and the Flyers delivered perhaps their most Flyers After Dark performance possible on the way to the shootout win over the Kings last night (or, you know, earlier today). RECAP: [ BSH ] *The Flyers were without Sean Couturier for that one, as he’s out with an upper-body injury. No update yet as far as his timeline is concerned, but that’s something to keep an eye on. [ BSH ] *The Flyers have gotten themselves on a nice little run here, and these are so...

What changed for Jordan Walsh in the Celtics’ rotation

Jordan Walsh’s season has already had two distinct phases. Back in mid-November, he stepped into the starting lineup and stayed there for the next 20 games. The Celtics went 15–5 during that stretch, and his role made sense within what Boston needed at the time. He defended across positions, ran the floor, and kept the […]

Player Grades: Lakers vs. Heat

Not all wins are created equal and Thursday’s was no ordinary victory for the Lakers. There’s a level of seriousness that came with that performance that separates good teams from great teams.

Avdija, Wemby, Jokic All Close to Missing All-NBA Eligibility

A rule intended to keep NBA superstars on the court may be keeping them from voters’ All-NBA and other award ballots.

Beyond recognition, those awards are also tied to contract […]

Wembanyama’s game winner downs Suns and sends Spurs to playoffs

For most of the night, it felt like the San Antonio Spurs were stuck in place — running hard, but going nowhere. The ball clanged off the rim more often than it swished through.
