Latest news and updates about the Kings
LOS ANGELES — Last week, Jaylen Brown shared an Instagram story that highlighted the Celtics’ record this year compared to last year. The graphic, created by NBC Sports Boston, compared the 2024-2025 Celtics’ and the 2025-2026 Celtics’ record, net, offensive, and defensive ratings at the All-Star break, ultimately demonstrating how, remarkably, both teams’ on-court success […]
The NBA All-Star Game has not been great for a while. Over the last few years, the players haven’t taken it seriously, leading the league to implement bizarro changes like the Elam Ending or a round-robin tournament including the winner of the Rising Stars challenge. This year, it was a round-robin tournament with an emphasis […]
Chelsea Gray, Allisha Gray, Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Plum advanced to the semifinals of Unrivaled’s 1-on-1 Tournament. Edwin Garcia broke down how the four got here—and guaranteed themselves at least $25,000. He also predicted who he thinks will capture the coveted $200K, forecasting a Point Gawd triumph over Boston in the final. What do you […]
Welcome to the Game Thread. Veterans of the Game Thread know how we do things around here, but for all you newbies we have a few rules. Our community guidelines apply and basically say be cool, no personal attacks, don’t troll and don’t swear too much. All Star weekend is here. Tonight’s schedule: Stephon Castle and Dylan […]
The NBA announced that Ace Bailey will be added to the Rising Stars game over All-Star Weekend. Bailey has been selected to replace Cooper Flagg who is out with a foot sprain. It’s a big honor for Bailey, who deserved a right to be on the team before the injury to Flagg. For the season, […]
That didn’t take long. Less than 24 hours after the Spurs waived forward Jeremy Sochan, ESPN’s Shams Charania is reporting he to sign with one of many potential suitors: the New York Knicks. The Knicks were the main team listed as a potential trade partner for Sochan before the trade deadline, but talks reportedly stalled […]
This week was a mixed bag for the Lakers. On the plus side, they won a pair of games and got Austin Reaves back. On the negative side, they lost to the top two teams in the West, Luka Dončić got hurt and LeBron James said they weren’t a championship team. Add it all up, […]
On Christmas Eve, Baylor sent shockwaves around NCAA by signing 7-foot center James Nnaji, the No. 31 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft who never actually signed an NBA contract. His rights were originally owned by the Detroit Pistons before getting moved to Charlotte. But Nnaji spent time overseas in Spain and, most recently, […]
That was the sort of outrage posted to social media after the Jazz…*checks notes*…won their second game in a row over three matches? No, of course not the lineup — or concept of one — the Sacramento Kings threw into the fire in Utah’s 121-93 victory last night in the Delta Center. But there’s still […]
BOSTON — Last Thursday, when the Celtics returned from Houston after a two-game road trip, the Celtics’ coaching staff didn’t go home from the airport. Instead, they headed straight to the Auerbach Center, where Nikola Vucevic, the team’s newest addition, awaited them. Vucevic had been traded to Boston two days earlier, and immediately dove into […]
The Sacramento Kings are bad at basketball. Like really, really bad. Lose to the infamously tanking Jazz by nearly 30 points bad. Empty Delta Center bad. So bad that the official dictionary of basketball is this close to changing the definition of “bad” to simply: an organization that used to be a professional basketball team, […]
CLEVELAND — Trading for James Harden two-thirds of the way through the season presents some challenges for Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson. Harden has had success playing an isolation-heavy style where he knows where everyone is on the court. Atkinson has been known for a heavy ball and player movement offense. Those opposites can’t […]

Daniel Jones will be Colt! IU Football Pro Day set! Pacers blow loss-win in OT!
I’ve never been quite so happy to eat my words. Brandon Ingram, the Toronto Raptors’ leading scorer this season, has been named an injury replacement in the 2026 All-Star Game. With Stephen Curry out for Team USA, Ingram has been called up to take his spot, and will be playing for the “Stripes” squad , […]
During an appearance on The Sports Junkies on Tuesday, Wizards General Manager Will Dawkins shut down reports that Anthony Davis won’t play this season. “I would say highly likely,” Dawkins said when asked about Davis and Trae Young playing this season. “That’s the goal. We want to see our guys together so we can build […]
An early-February AP Top 25 poll that saw some shifting and shaking could quickly experience more disruption due to two top-20 SEC matchups scheduled for Monday night. After confirming their top-five status with a home win over now-No. 6 LSU on Thursday, No. 4 Texas hosts No. 18 Kentucky (7:30 p.m. ET, SECN). The Wildcats […]
will we hear anything about this?
Baseball will start this week but will it? The Nats are a team in limbo in every way. They have no home station. They have no home coverage. Under new leadership they have no direction (yet). They have an ownership as stable as the next rumor that they are trying to sell. They are a baseball team this year because they were a baseball team last year and baseball teams just don't go away. This Spring will be an exercise in finding the bright spots. In again looking for what mi...
For as badly as the 2025-26 season has gone for Liverpool’s men’s team, on the women’s side it’s been even worse—with the slight caveat perhaps that less was expected from them this season. Expecting less, though, is an awful long way from expecting relegation, which is where the women have found themselves. Up until now, […]
There is no better way to recover from your Super Bowl party than with a new Lynx Offseason Update! As we continue to wait for any indication of serious talks when it comes to negotiations with the Collective Bargaining Agreement, we are still on pause before we can start looking ahead to the 2026 WNBA […]
Shams Charania reported before Celtics-Knicks on Sunday that Jayson Tatum began participating in controlled 5-on-5 scrimmages as he continues to attempt a return this season. It marks the first public note of a progression from the visible 1-on-1, shooting and mobility work at practices and shootarounds in recent months. It also marks a progression following […]
On Super Bowl Sunday, the New York Knicks (33*–19) visit the Boston Celtics (34–18) tonight at TD Garden in a matchup between two top Eastern Conference contenders, fighting for second place. Karl-Anthony Towns (eye), Josh Hart (ankle), and OG Anunoby (toe) are questionable for New York, while Miles McBride is out; Boston lists Sam Hauser […]
James Harden’s 15 fourth-quarter points were enough to lead the Cleveland Cavaliers to a narrow 132-126 victory over the Sacramento Kings in his debut with the team. Immediately after the game, while he was doing his first postgame interview with Cavs sideline reporter Serena Winters, Travis Scott decided to crash the party. “We’re going to […]
