Simone: LeBron James signing with the 76ers will be a disaster
After an overdramatic, long-winded summer, LeBron James finally made his free-agency decision: A two-year, $8 million deal with the Philadelphia 76ers. He'll join Jaylen Brown, Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid, and VJ Edgecombe in the City of Brotherly Love, creating one of the most stacked starting lineups in recent memory
Giardi: Jacas remains unsigned; Gonzalez ready to participate? And a big-name addition?

Bedard: Areas of concern and confidence with Patriots' new additions heading into camp
It seems like everyone, including myself, believes that the major additions — A.J. Brown, Romeo Doubs, Dre'Mont Jones, Kevin Byard and Alijah Vera-Tucker — are surefire upgrades for the Patriots. The odds of that are more probable than not, considering they are all good professionals, and the Patriots' coaching staff showed a great ability last season at maximizing their talent relative to other coaching staffs. But let's make no mistake: none of these additions are surefire hits. There is a l...
Haggerty: All eyes on Poitras as B's unfinished business
The Boston Bruins are mostly locked and loaded for September training camp and the earliest start to the season in recent memory at the end of that month. In fact, in some cases it feels like they almost have too many players as there’s an overabundance of NHL-talent defensemen given that there is, at most, seven or eight spots on the roster for blueliners.
Celtics Summer League round-up: Whose stock is up? Whose is down?
Spending 12 days in Las Vegas is exhausting. But it's worth it every single time. There's truly no experience in the sporting world quite like NBA Summer League.

Bedard: Ranking the Patriots' position groups heading into camp, plus Jacas and PUP lists
Let's reset the roster a bit as the Patriots' first training camp approaches on Saturday — and, by the way, the first padded practice won't be until Thursday, which is when camp truly starts — by ranking the position groups from a confidence perspective, most to least. But first, a small update on second-round pick Gabe Jacas.

Celtics Summer League Notebook: John Tonje's two-way case, a Maine tryout, and more
It takes a very specific type of person to succeed in the NBA. There can't be any doubt. Whether you're Jayson Tatum or a guy scrapping and clawing in Summer League for an opportunity, you have to believe with every fiber of your being that you belong. That's John Tonje.

Completed Q&A: Simone on Celtics/NBA, 9:00 p.m. Sunday 07.19.2026

Haggerty: Projecting the Boston Bruins lineup
The opening night lineup for the Boston Bruins this coming season, with the first game now officially taking place at home on Tuesday, Sept. 29 against the New York Rangers, is going to be a bit muddled no matter what. Charlie McAvoy will be serving a six game suspension for chopping Zach Benson with his stick at the end of last spring’s first round playoff series against the Sabres, and there are still some very real questions as to which defensemen are still even going to be with the team at...
