Happy Chicago Bulls Eve to the few of you who still celebrate!
I want to start things off by giving a shoutout to Mario Herron over at ESPN Chicago and Bleav. He welcomed me on the latest episode of his Bulls pod for a little season preview of sorts. We talked A LOT about the Coby White news and what that could mean for the start of the season, as well as some of the reasons why fans can actually feel cautiously optimistic. If you have some free time and want a good rundown of where thi...
Of the Brooklyn Nets five rookies, Danny Wolf can be distinguished from his teammates in a number of ways: He’s the oldest of the five by more than a year. He’s also the only legitimate big of the Flatbush 5 at close to seven foot and he’s no doubt the most intellectual, with three years […]
The start of the NBA season approaching means it’s time for my favorite bi-annual tradition: depressing my coworkers by asking them long term questions about the state of the Philadelphia 76ers. As a team that quickly went from title contenders to ping pong ball hopefuls, there’s a lot of ways this season can go. So […]
On Tuesday, the book “A Hollywood Ending: The Dreams and Drama of the LeBron Lakers” by Yaron Weitzman officially releases, but you’ve likely heard plenty about it already. Earlier in the week, a wild excerpt from the book involving LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Russell Westbrook and Will Smith grabbed plenty of headlines, as did other […]

We’re not even one day into the regular season, and the New York Knicks are already load-managing Mitchell Robinson. Yikes! Mitch might or might not play on Wednesday, Karl-Anthony Towns doesn’t have a clue what his role is, and Jalen Brunson doesn’t give a damn about title-or-bust. Here’s everything said by the Knickerbockers and other […]
Despite a current downward trend in his young NBA career, the Lakers still have some belief in Dalton Knecht. According to Keith Smith of Spotrac, LA has reportedly picked up the 2026-27 team option on Knecht. The deadline to make the decision was Oct. 31. Knecht will make $4.2 million next season. After starting his […]
The NBA is back. Let’s take a look at FanDuel’s betting lines for the Cleveland Cavaliers’ season opener against the New York Knicks. Cavs Moneyline (+125) The Cavs begin the season as underdogs on the road. I can’t say I blame FanDuel. Cleveland will be without multiple starters and the Knicks are just as hungry […]

First things first, I want no part of any of these late kickoff games during the regular season. It’s bad enough that they have them during the preseason, we don’t need them when the games actually count. The way the Seattle Seahawks played against the Houston Texans on Monday Night Football didn’t help. Yes, Seattle […]
In Today’s Links: recaps, recallings, retellings, and musings on our Seattle Seahawks’ big win last night. Lots to talk about. Didn’t look pretty, to be frank. Let’s break it down. Easier I’d say than dissecting the M’s game. Where are you at with the ‘Hawks after yesterday’s win? You worried about the O and/or Sam […]
Yesterday I provided some updates on Blackhawks prospects , many of whom are off to terrific starts to their respective seasons all over the world. If the NHL product is starting to excite you, the next wave(s) of players who are eventually going to be in line to join the roster in Chicago is also thrilling. The Blackhawks have a deep, talented pool of prospects who are producing impressive numbers.
On Monday, Nick Lardis was honored as the AHL Player of the Week for the strong start to h...
It’s my favorite time of the year. The time when I guarantee my predictions and pretend like this article won’t exist in 6 months. This season, there are a few players who are near locks to win certain awards, so I can at least hang my hat on them— hopefully. And if none of my […]
Thibaut Courtois was the player who spoke with Xabi Alonso in the press conference for Real Madrid before their game against Juventus on Wednesday. He was asked about how Vinicius Jr reacts to conflicts, to which he said: “It’s not always easy when an entire stadium is after you, when players are hitting you. He’s […]
Well, the 49ers beat the Atlanta Falcons. This was a not just a pallet cleanser for that ho-hum showing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but it also gave some legitimacy to the 2025 49ers. They were able to hold one of the better offenses in the NFL (well, at this point, anyways) to 10 points, […]

This is the next question in a series of roundtable questions I’m asking the staff here at Peachtree Hoops about the Hawks this upcoming season. The previous roundtable can be found here. Today’s question: what is your boldest take for the Hawks in 2025-26? Wes: The Hawks finish top 10 in both offense and defense […]
Iowa basketball has a rich history of producing quality NBA players, including All Stars, league champions, and even an MVP of both the ABA and one of the NBA’s predecessor leagues. However, Iowa’s success in developing productive pros has seriously fallen off in recent decades. Only three former Hawkeyes drafted in the last 20 years […]

The Mavericks wrapped up their preseason last week with a 121-94 win over the Los Angeles Lakers in Las Vegas. It concluded a four-game stretch of preseason games before the first regular season game takes place this coming Wednesday, the 22nd. The preseason gave the Mavericks a lot to look at, between the uncertainty of […]
Jacob Tobey has made a splash in San Antonio. He fits right in with the culture and brings youth and energy to a franchise whose players are young and vigorous. While in Indianapolis last week, Tobey visited the legendary restaurant St. Elmo’s Steakhouse. He sat with Spurs great and his cohost Sean Elliott. Elliott, known […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers hit the ground sprinting last year as they began the season 15-0. Repeating that type of success might be difficult this time, as the Cavs are already down two of their most important players entering the 2025-26 season. Darius Garland has no clear timeline for return as he recovers from a toe […]
In their third offseason in the project to rebuild the Washington Wizards, Michael Winger, Will Dawkins, and Travis Schlenk haven’t yet begun exiting the Deconstruction Highway. But signs for the offramp might be in sight — assuming, of course, they’re not for an out-of-service rest area. As should be expected for a team that won […]
