The Cleveland Cavaliers will welcome LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers into town for their annual pilgrimage to Cleveland. The Cavs are playing their best basketball of the season. They’ve won four in a row, seven of their last nine games, and 11 of their last 15. However, that was before it was announced […]

Earlier this month, Chicago Bulls team president Arturas Karnisovas was apparently poised to make his squad the Eastern Conference’s “biggest sellers” at this season’s Feb. 5 trade deadline. This week, the Bulls are… going to be buyers?
This is the kind of overreaction that one can expect out of the least competent current front office leader this side of maybe Kings GM Scott Perry, who apparently has been inspired by Chicago’s recent four-game win streak to jettison assets and equity in ...

The Cleveland Cavaliers have been playing their best basketball of the season of late, but that was before another former All-Star was added to the injury report. The team announced that forward Evan Mobley injured his left calf during the team’s win over the Orlando Magic on Tuesday. An MRI the following day revealed a […]

Trade rumors are, well, just rumors at the end of the day. Look no further than the reporting of the Knicks’ midseason intentions. Over the last couple of weeks, we’ve seen reporters, notable ones at that, flip-flop on how likely, or unlikely, New York is to make big changes this season. We’ve heard that they […]

The Lakers were struggling early in January. Los Angeles had lost four of five games, with its only win coming against a mediocre Atlanta Hawks team. In defense of the Lakers, they were playing without Austin Reaves and Rui Hachimura also missed some games during this stretch. Still, they looked more like a play-in team […]

As we head into February, the season and race for the NBA MVP has reached full speed where the true heavyweights begin to distance themselves from the pack. The conversation has shifted from early-season intrigue to a high-speed chase, with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander currently way out front. However, the rearview mirror is crowded with players like Luka Doncic, who continues to produce logic-defying stat lines, and Cade Cunningham, one of the rising stars of the league.

The Super Bowl matchup is set and as we all know, Sam Darnold has led/guided/caddied the Seahawks into the big game. The discussion is already raging about how the people in charge of this team handled the QB depth chart this season. Regardless of them somehow bringing back Darnold, they truly miscalculated the readiness of […]

Today’s new word learned while reading too much stuff during breakfast: Anvilicious.

1. I’ll admit, I’ve repeatedly cast side-eye at the Seattle Seahawks’ chances of winning it all because I simply couldn’t get behind trusting Sam Darnold, despite his come-up from his early days with the New York Jets. His mid-season spluttering seemed to justify that skepticism, and thrashing a beat-up 49ers defense in the Divisional Round […]

By most measures, the Portland Trail Blazers have had a successful season. They carry a record close to .500 after enduring a mammoth list of injuries. They’re operating without a point guard and they shoot terribly but they still manage middle-of-the-road offensive production. Their defense is decent, their rebounding good. 2025-26 probably won’t go down […]

The Seattle Seahawks are in the Super Bowl, which means that offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak will be staying with the team for at least one more game. Kubiak has been a popular candidate to be a head coach, but Seattle’s Super Bowl appearance will affect Klint’s availability for interviews over the next two weeks. If […]

BOSTON — During what’s become an increasingly dark time in Minnesota, players, coaches, and public figures alike have begun speaking out against the deadly violence carried out by federal immigration agents.

There was nothing flashy about Jaylen Brown’s performance on Monday night. An efficient 20 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists with only one turnover to his name and four steals to Portland’s, it wasn’t another 30-point scoring masterclass, but it was patient, winning basketball, and it was done against a defensive coverage hellbent on forcing […]

Rui Hachimura’s talent is undeniable. He’s an elite shooter who is converting on 43.9% of his 3-point attempts on the season, making him the best perimeter threat on the Lakers. Recently, though, he’s been struggling. His calf injury forced him to miss seven straight games and upon his return, his production dipped. Hachimura averaged just […]

As you may know, we’ve spent the last few weeks going over trade candidates the Bucks could pursue at the deadline, operating under their reported desire to be buyers before next Thursday’s trade deadline. While there’s been no public indication they’ve changed that stance, Giannis strained his calf again on Friday. a game which capped […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo, the consensus top-five player in the world, former MVP, and NBA champion, has been linked to the Knicks for quite a while now. It started with analysts wondering what Giannis in New York could look like, and slowly, but surely, it evolved into full-blown rumors that both sides were interested. Now, we don’t […]

The Hawks are up north this evening for a Central Division matchup against the Minnesota Wild.
Minnesota’s been one of the league’s biggest surprises through the first half-ish of the season, sitting fifth in the league standings with 68 points in 53 games (29-14-10). The Wild surged in late 2025 with seven-game winning streaks in both November and December that would’ve sent them to the top of the division were it not for the absurd pace being maintained by the league-leading Avalanche. ...
