There’s always a little drama in Philadelphia. The Sixers on Friday overcame a slow start to beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 115-103 at Xfinity Mobile Arena. The win, their eighth victory in their last 11 games, improved their record to 43-34. They sit in the sixth seed and final guaranteed playoff spot with five games remaining. […]
Francis Mauigoa, OT, Miami Long story short: this is the best player available and the Kansas City Chiefs sniped Ohio State safety Caleb Downs from me at at No. 9 in the BGN community mock draft. Honestly, I was surprised to see Mauigoa still on the board at No. 10. Given Joe Burrow’s injury history […]

Entering the final stretch of the 2025-2026 season, there was never a question whether the Rockets should win against a young, inexperienced, and oft injured Utah Jazz. The question was, can the Rockets get up big and be able to rest their key players in the 4th quarter, rather than let yet another inferior team […]
A bad start for the Wolf Pack ended up being the difference maker in the rivalry matchup.
Nashville Sounds 7, Charlotte Knights 6The Knights have fallen off since their bold start to the season. Unlike their Chicago counterparts on Friday, Charlotte lost control early.

Maybe the joke’s on me. Before the season even started, as baseball experts and national publications kept insisting that Lance McCullers Jr. would be part of the Houston Astros’ starting rotation, I wasn’t buying it. Not even a little. I questioned it constantly. I doubted it openly. And realistically, I believed there was no chance McCullers would […]
The Utah Jazz and the Houston Rockets played in what was clearly an end-of-season game for two teams going in different directions this offseason. Houston won easily, 140-106. Houston is a talented but imperfect team that was able to out-talent the Jazz, who are playing a rotation of developmental players, rookies, and 10-day contract players. […]
The NCAA transfer portal doesn’t open until next week, but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t been busy. For the fourth time since a disappointing 19-13 season ended last month, the Virginia Tech Hokies saw a fourth player reveal his intention to enter the portal. On Friday, junior guard Jaden Schutt became the latest Hokie expected […]
We were supposed to have our final two affiliates take the field tonight, but South Bend was rained out. I no longer post anything on Twitter/X.

The Islanders were outshot 12-2 and outscored 2-0 in the […]
There are a lot of different types of must-win games. Playoff games. Rivalries. Tie-breakers. Ring nights. Banner nights. Revenge games. But then there’s a must-win in the sense that your opponent is 25-51 on the season, actively tanking, and comprised of guys who may not even be in the league next year. Tonight was the […]
After hitting a single in the top of the first inning and then running from first to third, Juan Soto was removed from the Mets’ game in San Francisco before the team took the field in the bottom of the inning. SNY showed the replay of Soto running the bases, and the 27-year-old outfielder grimaced […]

Things got hairy when their 47-point lead was chipped to 36 with four minutes left in the fourth, but the closing crew of Tyler Kolek, Jose Alvarado, Pacome Dadiet, […]
