Date || 3/27 || Time 7:10 || Venue Capital One Arena || Video CBS Duke has a bit of a history with Rick Pitino. Most obviously, Duke beat his very gutty 1992 Kentucky team that forced overtime in the Elite Eight, which led to Christian Laettner’s iconic shot and a legendary 104-103 win. That’s not […]

The Milwaukee Bucks wrap up their four-game West Coast road trip against the Portland Trail Blazers tonight at Moda Center.

The Philadelphia 76ers are coming off a loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, who predictably had their way with the injury-riddled Sixers in their last matchup.

After their much recent blowout loss, the Miami Heat are now sporting a season-worst five-game losing streak— immediately after a season-best seven-game win streak. This stretch of the Heat’s season has shown exactly what this team is; consistently inconsistent. Just a couple of weeks ago, Miami emerged to tie for the Eastern Conference’s fifth seed.

On Tuesday, the WNBA board of governors unanimously ratified the new seven-year collective bargaining agreement (CBA), meaning the league is guaranteed to tip off its 30th season on May 8.

Just last year, this rivalry was so legendary that Adam Silver had to personally step in and punish these teams by giving them the mathematically worst outcome on draft lottery night. The embers are still in the air, but these organizations are no longer the juggernauts of Tankathon. They’re retired, choosing to pave their own […]
At some point you run out of ways to say a kid is doing something no one has ever done before. Tuesday night in New York, Matthew Schaefer played an absurd 31 minutes and 59 seconds against the Chicago Blackhawks , which is the most ice time ever logged by a teenager in NHL history. The New York Islanders lost 4-3, fell out of a playoff spot, and are now tied with the Ottawa Senators for the second wild card in the East. None of that changes what Schaefer did. The 18-ye...
The NBA landscape is populated by different classes. There are rich teams and there are penny-pinchers. Some rise above expectations to reach great heights, both of the temporary and permanent kind. The chronic underachievers exist too. But out of all the different archetypes, the one that might be the most frustrating – at least to […]
Opening Day is tonight. Kind of. Well, the Yankees and Giants play tonight, on Netflix, so I guess it’s Opening Night. And there will be stars on the broadcast. From other sports.

CLEVELAND — Head coach Kenny Atkinson went to his postgame press conference to deliver one message after the Cleveland Cavaliers barely scraped by the Orlando Magic 136-131. “I just told the team in the locker room, if we’re going to play defense like this, we’re going to have a short playoff stint,” Atkinson said. “We […]

The Memphis Grizzlies have been a disaster this season. It’s been an even worse season for Ja Morant, as he’s only managed to play in 20 games due to a litany of injuries. Morant, who was looked at a few years ago and one of the young star faces of the league, has had a […]
Anton Frondell picked up his first NHL point in his debut, recording an assist in the Blackhawks’ 4-3 win over the New York Islanders on Tuesday night. The Islanders struck first just 49 seconds into the game. Anders Lee got his stick on Matthew Schaefer’s blast from the blue line and redirected it past the glove of Arvid Soderblom.

Perhaps the most consequential new coaching hire the Minnesota Vikings have made this offseason is that of Frank Smith, former offensive coordinator for the Miami Dolphins under Mike McDaniel. Smith joins the Vikings as Assistant Head Coach, replacing the retired Mike Pettine who held that title last year. Unlike Pettine, who was a defensive coach, […]

You would not have believed that the Cleveland Cavaliers had just won a basketball game based on head coach Kenny Atkinson’s first comments in the press room after their 136-131 win over the Orlando Magic. In fact, you likely would have thought the Cavs were blown out. “I just told the team, if we’re going […]
Well, now it’s the most important game of the season. And Houston has lost all of their “This is the most important game of the season” games before now. The game is on ESPN, and the Rockets have had some stinkers on national television this season. I could look at the record, but ir’s gotta […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers didn’t have their best defensive effort, but their offense more than made up for it as they defeated the Orlando Magic 136-131. All grades are based on our usual expectations for each player. A “B” grade represents that player performing to our expectations for them. James Harden 26 points, 7 assists, 3 […]
What, really, is there to be gained for the Dallas Mavericks (23-49) as they prepare to face the Denver Nuggets (44-28) on Wednesday at Ball Arena? A draft lottery ball or two? A feint glimmer of sunshine in an otherwise dreary season and amidst a stretch of just four wins in the team’s last 27 […]

Two teams with palindromic records squared off at Madison Square Garden tonight. One team sits three slots down from the top of their conference, while the other is five up from the bottom of theirs. The distance between the clubs is misleading, though. With Zion Williamson sporting the physique of a Marvel hero, Dejounte Murray […]
With multiple teams pushing for a playoff spot they are letting slip away, the Islanders wasted a golden opportunity to keep pace against a bottom-five team that has nothing to play for but the pretense that next season will be better. The Isles got out to a decent start and 1-0 lead in the first […]
