Pablo Torre hosts comedian Jay Jurden on his podcast, peeling back the homophobic bravado some men are increasingly using in sports. The post Why are gay slurs making a comeback in sports? Pablo Torre and Jay Jurden find out appeared first on Outsports .
The Portland Trail Blazers went 2-1 this week with wins over the Memphis Grizzlies and Indiana Pacers broken up by a loss to the Houston Rockets. Multiple Blazers recorded big games throughout the stretch, but Blazer of the Week goes to Jrue Holiday for his consistent high-level play through all three games. Holiday averaged 25.3 […]
The Golden State Warriors travel to Salt Lake City on Monday night to take on a Utah Jazz team dealing with a sickness that’s making its way through the team.

Coming off a miraculous comeback win against the Los Angeles Clippers, the Spurs took on the Houston Rockets for their last meeting of the regular season. After a back-and-forth first quarter, the Spurs’ offense exploded, outscoring the Rockets 37-24 in the second. Coming into the third quarter with a 12-point lead, the Spurs’ offense continued […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers will look to establish some positive momentum after Sunday’s disappointing loss to the Boston Celtics. Even though they’ll be playing on the second night of a back-to-back, going up against this version of the Philadelphia 76ers should help them. The Sixers will be without their four best players: Joel Embiid (oblique), Tyrese […]
May 5, 2018. That was the last time I had even the slightest inclination that the Sixers might have the upper hand against the Boston Celtics. That was the date of the infamous “Confetti Game” in the Eastern Conference Semifinals when the Sixers hosted Boston. An eventual overtime loss for the Sixers gave way to […]
I’ll get the usual caveats out of the way first. It’s just one game. It’s the regular season. The playoffs are a different animal. We shouldn’t get carried away. “Weren’t you the guy sitting here this time last week after the Knicks loss telling us not to get too high or low about anything right […]
The Detroit Lions have found their new center. According to Aaron Wilson, the Lions have agreed to terms with former Carolina Panthers starting center Cade Mays to a three-year, $25 million contract. Per Wilson, $14 million of that is guaranteed. Mays, the Panthers’ sixth-round pick in 2022, will turn just 27 years old in April. […]
Ohio State’s basketball season has largely revolved around its backcourt. Bruce Thornton’s scoring and leadership, along with John Mobley Jr.’s perimeter shooting, have shaped much of the Buckeyes’ offensive identity. But as the season has moved toward March, another storyline has started to take shape. Freshman forward Amare Bynum has quietly evolved from a developmental […]
If the Lakers were going to convince anyone they were serious, then wins against actually good teams were going to have to come. Prior to Sunday, the Lakers faltered time after time when given the opportunity to beat a contender, including very recently in Denver. In beating the Knicks, then, they not only put together […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers went 1-1 last week, looking strong against the Detroit Pistons and floundering for the first half against the Boston Celtics. Not the most consistent week from the team; however, Evan Mobley was the most consistent presence in both those games. Seeing him reassimilate into the team after an extended absence was a […]
It may not be a first-round pick, but the Miami Heat are receiving a 2026 second-round pick from the Charlotte Hornets as compensation as a result of the Terry Rozier dispute, Associated Press’ Tim Reynolds first reported Monday. ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania confirmed the report shortly thereafter. According to the Miami Herald’s Anthony Chiang, […] The post Heat receive 2026 second-round pick amid Terry Rozier dispute appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
With the days getting longer and the weather getting warmer, I am sure a good amount of you guys are ready for May 10 and the NBA Lottery to come around. Still got two months to go! But even with that, it is okay to celebrate the remaining days we have for this season. A […]
OKLAHOMA CITY—Coming to you live this morning (as I write this, that is) from The 405, Oklahoma City, home of the reigning NBA champion Thunder. I’m here with my wife, who’s here for a continuing education course in her field of study. I spent most of the day yesterday by myself, but at night, she […]
Paul George is still suspended. Joel Embiid is still recovering from a right oblique strain. Now, Tyrese Maxey is dealing with a sprain in his right pinky — the same pinky which he sprained last season and ended his 2024-25 campaign — and will miss the next two games at least. Rookie VJ Edgecombe is […]
La Liga president Javier Tebas has spoken out about a possible Barcelona return for Lionel Messi after former boss Xavi claimed the Argentine was set to come home in 2023 before Joan Laporta vetoed the move. Xavi has told La Vanguardia that he spoke with Messi about a possible homecoming and that the forward “was […]
As Tyus Jones joins the Denver Nuggets, the chorus of boos grows louder. Houston Rockets fans wanted him. It made some intuitive sense. Jones’ best NBA seasons have seen him marry passing volume with a low turnover rate in a way that, frankly, only Fred VanVleet really does. So why wouldn’t Rafael Stone want him […]
With just under five minutes left in the first half, the Lakers trail the Celtics by four points. Jake LaRavia has the ball on the left wing, but is clearly surveying Luka Dončić, who is attempting to shake free from a handsy Boston defense on the other side of the court. With the aid of […]
Yesterday afternoon, the Knicks Knicks (41*-24) laid an egg in Los Angeles against the Lakers. Tonight brings a chance for redemption as they challenge the Clippers (31-32) at the Intuit Dome. Over their last ten games, both New York and the Clips have gone 6-4. They last met on January 7, when the ‘Bockers won […]
Sunday. Matinee game. Loss. Against the LA Lakers to put the cherry on top. Here’s a whole lot of stuff said in frustration before the Knicks cross the street to face the Clips. Mike Brown On turnovers, low free throws, and losing the offensive board battle being a recipe for disaster: “18 turnovers, 30 free […]
The Bucks get up in Volume 8, new recruits Cam Thomas and Ousmane Dieng making immediate impressions in Milwaukee and claiming their first momentum moments. But sometimes you can fly too high, too quick. Icarus and all that. Relive the last thirteen games—the sun, the sea—and the moments that defined them. @ Magic Sometimes it’s […]
Two weeks ago between the end of the Olympics and the return of the NHL, UNC tipped off against Louisville in a big ACC Matchup. The stands were stuffed with UNC fans, students, alumni, and dignitaries. And right there a couple of rows behind the scorer’s table, in clear camera view, sat several members of […]
