There are at least some signs of progress that could be interpreted as encouraging. Speaking before the Unrivaled semifinals in Brooklyn on Monday, WNBPA executive committee members Kelsey Plum and Breanna Stewart both shared […]
I’ll admit it: I was skeptical when the Hawks acquired a guy who didn’t exactly endear himself to four-time championship head coach Steve Kerr. But clearly, sometimes a change in scenery is all you really need. Or maybe the Warriors just didn’t know what they had. Jonathan Kuminga was drafted seventh overall in the 2021 […]
Dave DeBusscherre is an underappreciated great of the game. Born in 1940 in Detroit, DeBusscherre was a talented basketball and baseball player. He attended the University of Detroit (now Detroit Mercy). Like Danny Ainge and Duke legend Dick Groat, DeBusscherre played professionally in both sports. Amazingly, in 1964-65, at the tender age of 24, he […]
The Islanders are headed West, where the Kings are falling but the Ducks are surging again.

Hugo González played only 13 minutes on Sunday night, less than 24 hours before Boston Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla needed the rookie to start. That didn’t matter, though.

A busy midweek round of Premier League fixtures brings crucial momentum shifts across the table. With injuries, suspensions, and fatigue playing a major role at this stage of the season, squad depth could prove decisive. Manchester City’s situation surrounding Erling Haaland dominates headlines, while Spurs find themselves dangerously close to the relegation battle. Several European […]
After bottoming out last season with the 3rd worst record in the Eastern Conference, the Philadelphia 76ers have been a fun but flawed team this year, in large part due to yet another impressive leap from lead guard Tyrese Maxey as well as the promising potential of rookie shooting guard VJ Edgecombe. As for their […]

It’s down to the nitty gritty here in Jazz Nation. The playoffs are out-of-sight, the injuries are stacking, and the league is zeroed-in and hoping to make a don’t-tank example out of us. Do we continue losing naturally (which I still believe we have been doing) or do we put all of our chips in […]
The return of Giannis wasn’t enough to propel the Milwaukee Bucks over the Boston Celtics (who were missing All-Star wing Jaylen Brown and starting center Neemias Queta), losing 108-91. It’s the third straight loss by 20 or more for the Bucks. Payton Pritchard led the Celtics with 25 points on 5/10 shooting from beyond the […]

The Washington Wizards faced the Houston Rockets on Monday night at Capital One Arena. The Wizards made 19 of their 35 3-point attempts, but that hot shooting wasn’t enough as they lost to the Rockets, 123-118.

The Colorado Avalanche look to complete a season sweep over the Los Angeles Kings tonight at Ball Arena in Denver.
