Is Darryn Peterson Worth the Hype?

Darryn Peterson has become more and more the talk of the basketball world. Peterson, the Kansas freshman who turned 19, entered the basketball season as the presumptive No. 1 pick in the 2026 NBA draft. The 6’5 combo-guard is averaging an absurd 22 points on 50% from the field and a resounding 40% from the […]

Open Thread: Will Wembanyama get all the Spurs to shave their heads?

After last night’s victory against the Utah Jazz, Victor Wembanyama was asked about being selected to the All-Star staring five. Immediately after discussing the honor, the focus shifted to baldness.

Monday Night Felt Like a Significant Moment for Chicago Sports

On Monday night, I went to cover a Chicago Blackhawks game that felt like a significantly bigger moment than a divisional rivalry on a Monday night in January. Jonathan Toews, the longest-tenured captain in the history of the franchise, was playing his first game as a visitor. When a legend comes “home,” there are ceremonies and celebrations. And this was no different. After the Jets’ morning skate, the Winnipeg media team set up a press conference… on the road. Toews spoke to the media f...

Spurs jingle, jangle, and perhaps jingle again into Houston

TheRockets won their matchup against the Pelicans on Sunday pretty easily, with the return of Dr. Jaswishy, and Kevin Durant eclipsing Dirk Nowitzki’s career scoring mark.

Celtics fall to Pistons 104–103 in crunch-time defensive battle

In a matchup that felt far more like May than January, the Pistons outlasted the Celtics 104–103 on Monday night at Little Caesars Arena, surviving a final Jaylen Brown jumper that fell just short at the buzzer.
