The Seattle Seahawks won the Super Bowl in January, and that extra attention that comes with a deep run in the postseason and a Lombardi Trophy has meant the biggest free agent news for Seattle so far Monday has been players departing. First it was Ken Walker agreeing to terms with the Kansas City Chiefs, […]
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. Isaiah Collier has already been listed as out, but now Ace Bailey and Keyonte George are among those on the Jazz roster who are questionable […]
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 Chicago Blackhawks host the Utah Mammoth on Monday night as the two play for their second of three meetings in March. The Blackhawks last played the Mammoth on March 1, which was also the last time the Hawks won a game ( a 4-0 shutout win for Arvid Soderblom ). Utah made a large splash ahead of the trade deadline by trading for defenseman MacKenzie Weegar, sending Olli Maatta, forward prospect Jonathan Castagna, and three second-round picks in the 2026 draft to the Calgary Flames in r...
Moments after landing one of the prizes of free agency in the form of Baltimore center Tyler Linderbaum, the Las Vegas Raiders added to their wide receiver group, signing Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor. Nailor had been the third wide receiver for the Vikings. He will likely be a top of the rotation receiver […]
The Seattle Seahawks are world champions, having handily defeated the New England Patriots 29-13 in Super Bowl LX behind an offensive line that was the best group the team had fielded in a long time. However, in spite of the on-field success of the Seahawks, several fans had expressed hope that John Schneider and Mike […]
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 […]
In the wake of Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker heading to the Kansas City Chiefs, hopes were high that the Seattle Seahawks might turn to running back Tyler Allgeier. Perception has largely been that Walker, Allgeier, and Travis Etienne are the three best running backs available this offseason. Allgeier had been part of arguably the […]
After seeing Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III agree to sign with the Kansas City Chiefs, the Seattle Seahawks are set to lose another member of their 2022 draft class in Coby Bryant. NFL Network reporter Tom Pelissero reported Monday that Bryant is set to sign with the Chicago Bears. Fresh off his second season […]
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. […]
The Vikings’ first reported move done during the legal tampering window is a two-year, $8.5 million deal for former Steelers cornerback James Pierre. The former undrafted free agent out of Florida Atlantic has spent his entire NFL career with the Steelers on top a short stint with Washington during the 2024 campaign. The 6’2, 185-pound […]
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 Pittsburgh Steelers will not be bringing back cornerback James Pierre. After a breakout season in 2025, Pierre is signing a two-year, $8.5 million deal with the Minnesota Vikings, per Cameron Wolfe. Former Steelers secondary coach Gerald Alexander joined the Vikings’ staff this offseason, and now Pierre follows him to the NFC North. The Steelers […]
The Seattle Seahawks won the Super Bowl with Kenneth Walker III earning game MVP honors, something not accomplished by a running back since Terrell Davis. As it turned out, the Super Bowl was Walker’s last game with the Seahawks, who’s joining the Kansas City Chiefs on a lucrative free agent contract. Walker has entered a […]
Kenneth Walker’s final game with the Seattle Seahawks earned him Super Bowl MVP honors, and now the star running back is headed elsewhere in free agency. Tom Pelissero reported on Monday that Walker is going to the Kansas City Chiefs, who’ve won their fair share of Super Bowls in recent seasons without a star running […]
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 […]
