During the Lakers’ recent stop in Indianapolis, an unexpected face was on the baseline taking photos in Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark. There aren’t many things Clark can’t do on a basketball court, which now apparently includes photography as Clark snapped photos of LA’s win over the Pacers. After the game, Luka Dončić said he […]

The Las Vegas Raiders hired Klint Kubiak this offseason to help renovate the offense. He is known around the league as a premier play-caller, and it was on full display during the Seattle Seahawks’ Super Bowl run. Now he has the chance to help transform one of the worst offenses in the league over the […]
Just because we didn’t have a a Manchester United match to watch this weekend didn’t mean that the players weren’t busy. Four players under contract with United suited up in the 1-1 draw against Uruguay at Wembley.

How tired will Boston be? The Celtics took the short trip from Charlotte, North Carolina to Atlanta to take on the Hawks on the second night of a back-to-back. After handling the surging Hornets, 114-99, Boston now turns its attention back to an Atlanta team it faced Friday at TD Garden. Back-to-backs are always tricky. […]
It’s hard to be a good team without being a good clutch team. Of the 12 teams currently in a playoff spot (plus Philly, who’s on the cusp of it), 10 of them are in the top 11 in clutch net rating (the other team is Milwaukee, somehow). The others are Minnesota (15th), Denver (20th), […]
It’s amazing what can happen in a week, especially for a franchise as strange as your Philadelphia 76ers. This was the Sixers’ starting lineup last Monday against the Oklahoma City Thunder: This was their starting lineup this past Saturday against the Charlotte Hornets: Truly hilarious. But hey, Saturday’s win over the Hornets was a big […]

Jan Virgili’s name keeps on cropping up in the rumor mill amid speculation that Barcelona could try to bring him back in the summer if they don’t land Marcus Rashford permanently. Barcelona have first refusal on the winger and the talk is that he could be a good low-cost option for the summer transfer window. […]
The Dallas Mavericks might be playing with lottery fire. Every few games they have a key result that risks their positioning in a bottlenecked cluster in the top ten. Last week it was a win against the Portland Trail Blazers on a night those around them lost. We should take a moment and pause — […]
ATLANTA — The Celtics will once again be shorthanded when they face the Atlanta Hawks on Monday night on the second night of a back-to-back. Jayson Tatum (right Achilles repair management) will be sidelined after exploding for 32 points and 8 assists on Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets. And Nikola Vucevic remains out with a […]
The Portland Trail Blazers went 2-1 this week with blowout wins over the Milwuakee Bucks and Washington Wizards broken up by a loss to the Dallas Mavericks. As the Blazers continue this late-season push for NBA Play-In Tournament seeding, there have been a number of players who have stepped up during different games. A different […]
Throughout the season, Rui Hachimura’s role has fluctuated. He began as a starter, but with that lineup consistently losing its minutes, head coach JJ Redick relegated Hachimura to the bench. Despite the perceived demotion, Hachimura has remained an integral part of the Lakers’ identity. Hachimura is averaging 11.1 points and is one of the team’s […]
Great game! It seems like Celtics play better when players are missing and they are the underdog. I loved seeing Tatum getting back to his old self. Also love when there are lots of Celtics fans on the road. The guy who wishes Achilles tears on the Tatum needs some counseling. Not good. I agree that the Celtics don't have bandwagon fans but not for their reasons. Most Celtics fans that I know and have met have been fans for many many years. ...
As the end of March approaches, it is almost time for teams across the NFL to begin their offseason programs.

Caleb Williams is trying to trademark the nickname “Iceman,” which has unofficially belonged to George Gervin for decades. Can new stars reintroduce nicknames to a new generation, or is it disrespectful to the legends? Marilyn Dubinski: I have a personal bias here because I love Gervin (my dad personally knew him back in the day) […]
Luka Dončić is my comfort watch. Between the routine silky stepbacks, verbal spats with referees and effortless first-quarter scoring outbursts, I find the inevitability of his game soothing. It’s like watching a rerun. Even though the opposition and defensive coverages change, the NBA’s Columbo always figures out the mystery by the end of the night. […]
The Miami Heat have lost seven of their last eight games, following their second straight embarrassing performance this past weekend. They suffered another near-20-point blowout loss on Sunday to the 15th seed (and tanking) Indiana Pacers. It was yet another rock bottom and inexcusable moment that only further solidified their inevitable play-in fate. Miami is […] The post GAME PREVIEW: Struggling Heat return home to host visiting Philadelphia 76ers appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HE...
