Rockets do not beat Heat, fall 115-110

Signs of life against another Florida team might have been premature. The Rockets were largely outsmarted today by the Heat.

Report: Flyers hire performance expert from NBA team

A lot has been made of how this current Philadelphia Flyers team might be lacking some conditioning. Youngster Matvei Michkov has been at the center of all of it, of course, but with the likes of Sean Couturier slowing down and more veterans taking a step back, it’s become an underdiscussed and underlying theme to this season. Well, the team seems to be addressing that issue. According to New Orleans Pelicans reporter Shamit Dua, the NBA team’s director of performance and sports scie...

Dallas Mavericks Sign Ryan Nembhard to Two-Year Contract

After going undrafted in the 2025 NBA Draft, the Dallas Mavericks gave point guard Ryan Nembhard a well-deserved chance after leading the NCAA in assists per game with 9.8 during his senior season with the Gonzaga Bulldogs. He finished with a school record 325 total assists in 2024-25. After proving his worth in the NBA […]

The Spurs have found a weapon no one expected

The Spurs headed into the season with some question marks with the biggest being their lack of backcourt shooting. The trio of De’Aaron Fox, Stephon Castle, and Dylan Harper undoubtedly had quickness, athleticism, and driving ability to spare, but their jumpers in general and their outside shots in particular were not their strong suit. Three-quarters […]

The Portland Trail Blazers ran into one of the hottest teams in the NBA this morning (well, it was morning in Portland, anyway) and should have treated themselves to brunch instead.
