The Los Angeles Rams are set to play the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday in the NFC Championship game after defeating the Chicago Bears in overtime, 20-17.

Everyone loves a linear narrative. OK, fine – not everyone. If you’re some kind of wacky postmodernist, you prefer a strange metanarrative. You love yourself some Twin Peaks. Good for you. The rest of us love a linear narrative. We also love a linear NBA career. When a player becomes the player they were projected […]

The Chicago Bulls might be… becoming self-aware? Obviously, please don’t hold your breath, but it appears team president Arturas Karnisovas , six seasons into his tenure at the franchise’s helm, appreciates midseason that his team is going nowhere. He might actually, really, be open to pivoting from his doomed roster for the second straight season — and a pair of New Orleans Pelicans frontcourt stalwarts, two-time All-Star power forward Zion Williamson and second-year center Yves Missi , could...

The Blackhawks are finally starting to get healthy. Frank Nazar and André Burakovsky will be back in the lineup on Thursday night in Carolina, putting two top-six pieces back in the lineup up front. That should help an offense that’s been struggling to get a third goal on the board. Burakovsky was back skating on a line with Connor Bedard and Ryan Greene , while Nazar was back on a line with Tyler Bertuzzi . After the Blackhawks practice on Wednesday, Nazar talked again about playing with...

Publicly, LeBron James and Jeanie Buss seemed to have a strong relationship throughout their tenure together. Jeanie has spoken of the value of having LeBron on the roster both on-court and off and the two sides seemed to be in a good place more often than not. Behind the scenes, though, things haven’t been quite […]

Portland Trail Blazers All-Star-in-waiting Deni Avdija is riding high through the 2025-26 NBA season. 26 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists per game will bring plenty of notice and praise. But the journey from Point A to Point ASG wasn’t easy for the 6’8 do-everything player. Avdija came up through the international ranks in his […]

The NBA is just about two weeks away from its 2025-26 season trade deadline. With the Eastern Conference fast becoming a hot mess, things could be incredibly active. But the biggest question mark lies in the league’s other conference. The Golden State Warriors now have a Jimmy Butler problem. Could Mike Dunleavy Jr. Trade Jimmy Butler? Golden State’s 2025-26 season with its current roster took a huge hit Monday when Jimmy Butler tore his ACL against the Miami Heat. Giv...

Yang Hansen made headlines the moment the Portland Trail Blazers selected him in the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft. The world waited to see if the prodigy from China would make a splash in the American league. So far, he hasn’t. The 7’1 center has appeared in 25 games, averaging just 8.4 minutes […]

The Blackhawks were back to practice on Wednesday and looked as close to full health as they have in a few months. Part of that was Andre Burakovsky’s return from an illness that sidelined him on Monday night against Winnipeg, but the biggest step in that direction was Frank Nazar’s full participation in practice, suggesting he’ll play for the first time in a month when the Hawks visit the Hurricanes on Thursday night. Frank Nazar said he feels ready to go after being out since Dec. ...

I can count on my fingers and toes how many days are left until the NBA trade deadline. But I’d need everyone’s fingers if I tried to count how many trade rumors the Chicago Bulls are tied to. With seven expiring contracts on the books, the Bulls should be the belle of the ball when it comes to trade negotiations. Yet with nothing materializing so far, Chicago risks striking out on extracting real value from its assets — a headline the franchise seems oddly comfortable wearing. Still...

When perusing Portland Trail Blazers highlights and news briefs, two names are bound to come up more than any other: high-flying guard Shaedon Sharpe and Mr. Everything, Deni Avdija. Next to them toils a less-heralded forward, known well in Portland circles but absent from national discussion: Toumani Camara. In his third year, Camara is averaging […]

Oh boy, welcome back to our annual Socratic seminar about “should the Celtics make a trade this year?” A tradition unlike any other, it’s one of the most important questions for each Celtics season — answering it can reflect the state of the team, the direction and goals for the coming playoff run or tanking extravaganza.

The Seattle Seahawks fielded a surprisingly potent offense during the 2025 season, setting a franchise record for points scored on the season. Much of the credit for the offense being as prolific as it was goes to third year wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who finished the regular season with a league-leading 1,793 receiving yards as […]

When Joey and Jesse Buss were unexpectedly fired from their front-office positions in late 2025, it became clear how strained the relationship was between the youngest Buss siblings and Jeanie. But it was made clearer on Wednesday just how bad things have gotten. Baxter Holmes of ESPN published a piece on the Buss family and […]

He was also working with the second power play unit. André Burakovsky will also return to the Blackhawks’ lineup on Thu...

The Bucks haven’t pulled the trigger on anything yet, but with all the rumors swirling, it’s definitely possible we see some action before then. In the meantime, we here at Brew Hoop have been presenting […]

The Toronto Raptors are fresh off one of their best performances of the season, a 145-127 win against the Golden State Warriors – despite being down four rotation players – in which Immanuel Quickley dropped a career-high 40 points and 10 assists. Now, they’ll be shorthanded and on short rest as they take on the Sacramento […]

It burns a little, this one. Yeah. To blow that lead. Against this opponent, in their building. It burns. No two ways about it. I’d love to breeze through this and move on to the next, but goodness. We’re probably going to have to sit with it for a minute. Because that was about as […]

Sure, they’ve had some frustrating losses get away from them, but halfway through the season, the Sixers are in as good a spot as any optimist could have hoped for before the season. At 23-19, they have set themselves up to not just make the playoffs, but potentially nab a top-six spot to avoid the […]

If any game — really, any half — exemplifies the season that UNC Wilmington has been having, it’d probably be Jan. 10’s second half against Stony Brook. Shorthanded, and on the second leg of a due-north road trip, the Seahawks headed into the locker room for halftime trailing 43-21 against one of the CAA’s worst […]

The Seattle Seahawks traded for Rashid Shaheed, presumably, to help make the passing game more explosive. That hasn’t quite materialized yet, and ideally he’s extended soon so we can see him with a full offseason more integrated as a wide receiver. In the meantime, Shaheed has made the once nightmarish Seahawks kick and punt return […]
