Andrej Stojakovic Likely Exiting NBA Draft Process, Returning to Illini Next Season
The Illinois Fighting Illini will certainly lose player to the NBA Draft, in Keaton Wagler, who is likely to be selected in the top ten. The Illini will also see one of their players from the 2024-25 team, Morez Johnson, stay in the draft. He’ll likely be a late first round selection. Kylan Boswell and […] The post Andrej Stojakovic Likely Exiting NBA Draft Process, Returning to Illini Next Season appeared first on The Sports Bank .
CelticsBlog exit interview: Derrick White’s shooting drop off sparks big questions
The 2025-26 season had a lot of surprises for Boston Celtics fans. Jaylen Brown’s ascension to a top-10 player over the regular season. Neemias Queta’s explosive growth into a serviceable starting center. The Stay Ready crew’s energy and impact. Sadly, a disappointing first-round playoff exit. However, one of the biggest surprises was the disappearance of […]
ECF Game Preview: Knicks vs. Cavaliers, Game 2, May 21, 2026
The serious basketball heads I know are ecstatic. The NBA Conference Finals have delivered three thrillers so far. Last night in the West, SGA and the Thunder tied their series with another slugfest against Wemby and the Spurs. On Tuesday, throughout most of their Game One, the Knicks looked rusty while the Cavaliers rode the […]
Hawks' stunning run came at expense of veteran amidst identity shift
Luke Kennard had the highest shot quality percentage in the league this season, but oddly enough, the Hawks were much better without him.
The Dallas Mavericks finally chose the clean slate
After a tumultuous sub-.500 season that disappointed fans, players, and ownership, the Dallas Mavericks parted ways with their head coach. He had four years remaining on his contract. He had brought a championship pedigree as a player. He had been tasked with steadying a roster that had gone off the rails. The season was so […]
Latest News Makes Scott Laughton's Return to Maple Leafs Unlikely
Scott Laughton was thrilled to be headed to his hometown team when the Toronto Maple Leafs dealt for him at the 2025 trade deadline. But after a full calendar year, he was sent to the Los Angeles Kings at this year's deadline, though with the thought that maybe he could return this summer as an unrestricted free agent. As it turned out, Laughton quite enjoyed his time in LA, as his ice time was boosted by two minutes a game with the Kings. Accordingly, his production went up, and he was ...
Would the Rockets consider trading into the 2026 NBA Draft?
As of now, the Houston Rockets do not own a first-round pick in the much anticipated 2026 NBA Draft. That asset was sent to the Oklahoma City Thunder as part of the ill-fated 2019 trade involving Chris Paul and Russell Westbrook. The Rockets do, however, possess a significant amount of future draft capital. If Houston […] The post Would the Rockets consider trading into the 2026 NBA Draft? appeared first on ClutchFans .
Knicks Bulletin: ‘God put me here to serve these guys’
If you’re like me, you can’t wait for Game 2 later today. If you’re one of them, you probably want the series to be over with so you can pack your bags and spend two months in Cancun starting asap. Here’s the latest from Tarrytown and elsewhere as we wait for tip-off at 8 p.m. […]
Heat's Giannis dreams were just crushed by ESPN's asset rankings
ESPN released an asset rankings list, and this is not something that is going to help the Miami Heat's pursuit of Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Cooper Flagg, Kon Knueppel Unanimous Selections To NBA All-Rookie Team
More good news for former Duke stars Cooper Flagg and Kon Knueppel, as both were unanimously named to the All-Rookie Team. As far as we can find, the only time former college teammates were unanimously named to the All-Rookie team was in 2004-05 when former UConn Huskies Emeka Okafor and Ben Gordon pulled it off. […]
Milwaukee Bucks 2026 Mock Draft: No. 3, Cameron Boozer
Born from a basketball pedigree, Cameron Boozer is a natural-born winner. Boozer has made a case as possibly the most accomplished high school player of all time, claiming four Florida state championships, three Nike EYBL (Elite Youth Basketball League) rings, two gold medals, and countless individual awards. This isn’t a coincidence; Boozer has one of […]
Syracuse men’s basketball: Orange to face Rutgers in Brooklyn
The Syracuse Orange have reportedly scheduled a fourth high-profile non-conference game in an NBA arena. Per CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein, Syracuse is working to finalize a deal with Rutgers to play at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. This adds to previously reported games against Indiana (Gainbridge Fieldhouse, November 9th), St. John’s (Madison Square Garden), and […]
Who is the biggest “freak of nature” you saw play at UNC?
Arguably the biggest story in sports in recent days came in the NBA. On Monday night, the San Antonio Spurs beat the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals. A large reason — literally and figuratively — for the victory was San Antonio’s star Victor Wembanyama. The man known “Wemby” scored […]
The Mavericks found balance in a new direction
Before the Dallas Mavericks announced the hiring of team president Masai Ujiri, very little had been reported on the search. Every couple months between the November firing of Nico Harrison and this month’s hiring, there would be a sprinkle of insight into team governor Patrick Dumont’s thinking. The team made it clear that they would […]
Pistons top trade target on the Clippers isn't Kawhi Leonard
Detroit could poke around LA for upgrades.
Box Grades: Thunder even series as Spurs’ backcourt grows thin, turnovers persist
Honestly, the fact that San Antonio lost ranks fourth or fifth on my list of most troubling facts about last night’s game. By far the most serious issue is Dylan Harper’s injury, as he has been absolutely essential in this playoff run and clearly the second-best Spur in the series so far. The second most […]
Lakers Offseason Series: You Have to Figure Out Something in the Middle
Optimal Luka fits, restricted access, and more stopgap solutions
BYU's AJ Dybantsa believes he'll draw national attention, no matter his NBA market
AJ Dybantsa is a very rare type of NBA superstar. His uncommon career path, combined with an "I'll make it work" attitude, has been on full display during his pre-draft period, setting him apart from those below him on the mock drafts. But what makes him
Pistons can have cap space but it will cost them
How much cap space the Pistons have is up to them.
Analyst says the quiet part out load about 76ers' Joel Embiid reality
The Philadelphia 76ers have no options with Joel Embiid, and that is something they will have to deal with for better or for worse.
The Mavericks are cleaning house again. This time, it feels sustainable
When Donnie Nelson was fired in 2021, and Rick Carlisle stepped down shortly after, no one argued whether or not this was the correct decision. Nelson had failed to put together a functional roster, and Carlisle’s relationship with Luka Doncic grew sour. The question revolved around who they hired to replace them. And, as history […]
Canis Pulsus Vol. 50 – Memories Edition
It’s been almost a week since the Minnesota Timberwolves season came to a flaming end. Though the final on the court memory of the Wolves was them getting smacked with eight minutes of garbage time left, there were still plenty of good parts to the journey. Let’s not lose sight of all that. So let’s […]
How confident are you in Arizona’s most high-profile coaches?
Last summer Tommy Lloyd had never made a Final Four, Chip Hale was coming off a trip to the College World Series, Brent Brennan was an embattled football coach, Caitlin Lowe’s team had fallen in the regional after a very successful debut season in the Big 12 and Becky Burke was trying to assemble a […]
Marc-Andre ter Stegen left out of Germany squad for World Cup 2026 amid uncertain Barcelona future
Marc-Andre ter Stegen has been left out of Germany’s squad for World Cup 2026 which has been announced by manager Julian Nagelsmann.
