When speaking about the state of WNBA collective bargaining agreement (CBA) negotiations at Unrivaled’s Monday pre-semifinal press availability, Kelsey Plum and Breanna Stewart both struck a more conciliatory tone, emphasizing their opposition to a strike, the wins that the union has secured thus far and a desire to come to agreement that allows for a […]
On March 16, the Atlanta Hawks are hosting a theme night as they play against the Orlando Magic. The theme “Magic City Monday,” seems purposefully confusing considering their opponent for the evening. But Magic City is an Atlanta based strip club made famous for being mentioned in hip-hop albums. The venue was also notably visited […]
As the Celtics sweep through the final stretch of what’s been a magical season of career-best breakouts, I often think about a Media Day headline I wrote when expectations were in a significantly different state. The 2025-26 Celtics are one big Stay Ready squad. Ironically, “Stay Ready” isn’t the en vogue phrase of the 2025-26 […]
Juju Reese’s NBA career looked to be far from a sure thing. But in the last week, he has exploded onto the scene, nearly recording a double-double on Tuesday. In his second NBA start in two days, Reese played 33 minutes in the Washington Wizards’ 126-109 loss to the Orlando Magic. Reese shot 4-of-6 from […]

CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Cavaliers did just enough to get past the conference-leading Detroit Pistons 113-109. If you stop Cade Cunningham, you’ll stop the Pistons. Head coach Kenny Atkinson called defending Cunningham “the key to the game,” and understandably so. Cunningham was effective as a playmaker with 14 assists, but was held to just 10 […]
The 2025-2026 Boston Celtics have been defined by exceeding expectations, and no one on this Celtics roster, and maybe not in the entire league, has exceeded expectations more than Neemias Queta. There were plenty of reasons to be skeptical of the Celtics coming into the season; they would be relying on a roster comprised of […]

49ers linked to Vikings pass rusher Jonathan Greenard amid trade report “A lot of the 49ers’ inability to generate pass rush last year was the byproduct of Nick Bosa missing most of the year after he tore his ACL,” DeArdo wrote. “But even with Bosa slated to make a full recovery, it would still make sense […]
LOS ANGELES — The last thing anyone would call this iteration of the Lakers is a good defensive team. They have a defensive rating of 116 on the season, placing them 22nd in the NBA. Progress in this department has been minimal at best. But against the Pelicans, the Lakers’ defense came up big. Trailing by […]
The Lakers are securely at the point of the season where winning by any means necessary is the objective. After a pair of easy wins over the Warriors and Kings, they had to grit one out on Tuesday to knock off the Pelicans. After a very unserious three quarters, the Lakers turned it up to […]
Hoping to build off arguably their biggest win of the season against the Houston Rockets, the Miami Heat encountered the tanking Brooklyn Nets, a team on the opposite end of the scale from their recent counterpart. While it wasn’t always pretty, aesthetically, Miami still pulled away en route to a 124-98 win inside Kaseya Center. […]

The Lakers used a big fourth quarter run down the stretch to secure a third straight win, knocking off the Pelicans 110-101. After falling behind by nearly double digits midway through the final frame, LA closed the game on a 24-7 run. They finished with 12 blocks, six of those coming in the fourth quarter. […]
The music never really stopped inside the Wells Fargo Center. By the middle of the third quarter, the only suspense left was how high the lead would climb. The San Antonio Spurs didn’t just beat the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night — they overwhelmed them, dismantled them, and left no doubt in a 131-91 runaway that felt decided long […]
The Blackhawks let another late lead disappear on Tuesday night in Winnipeg, falling 3-2 to the Jets to cap their four-game road trip.
Dylan Samberg scored about four minutes into the game to give Winnipeg an early 1-0 lead:

The Dallas Mavericks, still without Cooper Flagg, started their longest road trip in 15 years, taking on the Charlotte Hornets. The six-game trip got off on the wrong foot with a 117-90 loss. Let’s get to the grades! Brandon Williams: B+ 18 PTS / 4 REB / 1 AST / 0 STL / 1 BLK […]

The SLC Dunk Staff and I were talking in our group chat recently and the topic of “The Process” came up. We were originally bashing the NBC/Peacock broadcast for airing a commercial that referred to the Boston Celtics and the Philadelphia 76ers as “two teams that never rebuild, they just reload.” Apart from the blatant […]
Recap of the game.
As of tonight, the Toronto Raptors have officially lost their twelfth consecutive game to the New York Knicks, continuing a disheartening pattern begun in 2023. Brandon Ingram’s 31 wasn’t enough to outscore the top dogs of the Atlantic Division, as the Knicks hammered Toronto for a 111-95 loss. It’s fitting for New York to have […]
San Antonio closed out an 8-1 Rodeo Road Trip with a 131-91 whipping of Philadelphia that saw eight Spurs get to double-digits scoring. Despite NBC’s pregame focus on the Sixers’ excellent starting guards, it was the Spurs’ perimeter players that stood tallest in a stunning 81-39 explosion across the second and third quarters that led […]
Have you ever watched a cartoon scuffle evolve into a swirling cloud of dust, stars, limbs, and onomatepea? With the participants jostling, wrestling, and tackling at such a high speed, the animators are physically incapable (or occupationally unwilling) of sketching at a quick enough rate to keep pace with the escalating kerfuffle. Dust and dirt […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Detroit Pistons 113-109. Let’s go over today’s winners and losers. WINNER – Jaylon Tyson Earlier this week, Cavs head coach Kenny Atkinson was asked what the ideal role for Jaylon Tyson is. His response? Defend, rebound, and make open shots. I’d say Tyson checked all of the above tonight. Tyson […]
