Sixers open season in Boston amid lowered expectations

It’s an unfamiliar vibe as we head into tonight’s Philadelphia 76ers regular season opener against the Boston Celtics. The Conference Finals or bust mindset of years past is gone.

Amidst Chaos, Chris Paul has Emerged as a Bright Spot

It’s easy to forget how long Chris Paul has been in the building. He’s not one of the new faces of Dan Quinn’s retooled Washington Commanders, nor is he one of the early-round cornerstones added since the new staff took over in 2024. He’s not the shiny draft pick or the veteran free agent who […]

The Downbeat: Salivating over a platter of city edition jerseys

The Utah Jazz are a classic story of rags to riches. Not in terms of wins and losses, no, of course not. This is a team that won 17 out of 82 games last season — dead last in the NBA — has never and will never be a free agent destination, and resides in […]

2025-26 Atlanta Hawks player preview: Zaccharie Risacher

After a promising rookie season as the No. 1 overall pick, Zaccharie Risacher came into his second year looking bigger, stronger, and (maybe) taller. He also came back with a new hairstyle.

Only Dean Wade can change his narrative

There was a time when Dean Wade was viewed as one of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ most important role players. Over the last two seasons, the Cavs are 83-30 in the games that Wade plays in. He is an analytics darling and is one of the team’s best defensive players.  Wade also fits well with the […]
