Latest news and updates about the Kings
BOSTON — Last Thursday, when the Celtics returned from Houston after a two-game road trip, the Celtics’ coaching staff didn’t go home from the airport. Instead, they headed straight to the Auerbach Center, where Nikola Vucevic, the team’s newest addition, awaited them. Vucevic had been traded to Boston two days earlier, and immediately dove into […]
The Sacramento Kings are bad at basketball. Like really, really bad. Lose to the infamously tanking Jazz by nearly 30 points bad. Empty Delta Center bad. So bad that the official dictionary of basketball is this close to changing the definition of “bad” to simply: an organization that used to be a professional basketball team, […]
CLEVELAND — Trading for James Harden two-thirds of the way through the season presents some challenges for Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson. Harden has had success playing an isolation-heavy style where he knows where everyone is on the court. Atkinson has been known for a heavy ball and player movement offense. Those opposites can’t […]

An early-February AP Top 25 poll that saw some shifting and shaking could quickly experience more disruption due to two top-20 SEC matchups scheduled for Monday night.

will we hear anything about this?
Baseball will start this week but will it? The Nats are a team in limbo in every way. They have no home station. They have no home coverage. Under new leadership they have no direction (yet). They have an ownership as stable as the next rumor that they are trying to sell. They are a baseball team this year because they were a baseball team last year and baseball teams just don't go away. This Spring will be an exercise in finding the bright spots. In again looking for what mi...
For as badly as the 2025-26 season has gone for Liverpool’s men’s team, on the women’s side it’s been even worse—with the slight caveat perhaps that less was expected from them this season. Expecting less, though, is an awful long way from expecting relegation, which is where the women have found themselves. Up until now, […]

James Harden’s 15 fourth-quarter points were enough to lead the Cleveland Cavaliers to a narrow 132-126 victory over the Sacramento Kings in his debut with the team. Immediately after the game, while he was doing his first postgame interview with Cavs sideline reporter Serena Winters, Travis Scott decided to crash the party. “We’re going to […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers’ backcourt of Donovan Mitchell and James Harden came through when it mattered most. They combined for 32 fourth-quarter points to lead Cleveland to the 132-126 victory over the Sacramento Kings. All is well that ends well. The Mitchell and Harden pairing struggled at the start of the game. They seemingly didn’t want […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers took over in the fourth quarter to win a thriller in Sacramento. Let’s see who won and lost the night. WINNER – The Fourth Quarter This one came down to the wire.

It wasn’t always pretty, but the Cleveland Cavaliers executed well enough down the stretch to win James Harden’s debut with the team. They defeated the hapless Sacramento Kings 132-126.

Have you seen that Nike commercial with the late Kobe Bryant and Kanye West? If you haven’t, no worries. That basketball commercial was a play on Bryant’s mamba mentality where he sought more from Kanye. “But are you a different animal and the same beast?,” Bryant asks. That “more successful and more records” uttered in […]
