In his third year in the NBA, Victor Wembanyama is finally reaching many milestones we all knew were coming when he entered the league. While he made his first All-Star appearance last season, it was ultimately cut short due to deep vein thrombosis, and he missed out on award and All-NBA eligibility due to only […]
Seattle Kraken forward Eeli Tolvanen is an interesting pending unrestricted free agent (UFA) heading into the summer. With Tolvanen being a 26-year-old forward who contributes offensively and plays a heavy game, he should generate a good amount of interest if he hits the free-agent market. Due to this, let's look at three teams that could look to sign Tolvanen if he becomes a free agent this offseason. Detroit Red Wings The Red Wings should be looking to boost their top nine this s...
CLEVELAND — Telling someone back in 2015 that a Cleveland Cavaliers head coach would compare his point guard, James Harden, to Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James would probably break their brain. We live in a weird world. The Cavs have been rolling offensively since adding Harden in February. The speed at which he processes […]
The Utah Jazz rejoice as a coin flip for the 4th-best lottery odds fell in their favor, securing the first-round pick away from Oklahoma City’s greedy clutches. At the fifth odds, there was a chance of slipping to the ninth pick and falling out of the top-8 protection bubble. At four, those odds are erased […]
We’re just three days away from the 2026 NFL Draft, and if everything goes as planned, the Chicago Bears will draft a bunch of future Pro Bowlers, while the Detroit Lions, Minnesota Vikings, and Green Bay Packers take bust after bust after bust. That’s probably not likely, so we asked our guys to give us […]
It’s a three-city week for the Dodgers, who finish up their four-game series against the Colorado Rockies on Monday in Denver, then head to San Francisco to take on the Giants at Oracle Park for a three-game series beginning Tuesday night. The Dodgers have their best three starting pitchers going in their first salvo against […]
For all the talk of a young team with little experience, the San Antonio Spurs did exactly what contenders should do in the first round of the playoffs: handle a lower seed in front of their home crowd. The Spurs beat the Portland Trail Blazers in Game One, 111-98. The Spurs were led by their […]
Real Madrid’s second UEFA Youth League title will be remembered for many reasons — but above all, for the emergence of Javi Navarro as its defining figure. Hero in the semi-final. Hero again in the final. Across two matches that went the distance, Navarro delivered one of the most remarkable goalkeeping performances in the competition’s […]
The Portland Trail Blazers are in the playoffs for the first time in five years, but the Blazers story on ESPN’s front page isn’t about their play, but about their pay… or rather, their unwillingness to pay under the leadership of new owner Tom Dundon: During Sunday’s Game 1 in San Antonio, the Portland Trail […]
The NBA held its draft tiebreaker drawings on Monday, April 20. It is worth clarifying what this process actually is, as this is not the Draft Lottery itself. Instead, the league uses these drawings to establish the order among tied teams before the lottery takes place, ensuring each team receives the appropriate odds (for lottery […]

The Portland Trail Blazers fell to the San Antonio Spurs 111-98 in Game 1 of their first-round playoff series on the road Sunday evening. In the franchise’s first playoff game in five years, the seventh-seeded Blazers put up a respectable showing against the second-seeded Spurs, even in a loss. Blazers All-Star Deni Avdija was great […]
Finally! After years of grueling disappointment, the Silver and Black played their first NBA playoff game since 2019 last night. It wasn’t always pretty, but the Spurs had some impressive stretches of play and ultimately wore down Portland. What’s more, in addition to the win, San Antonio managed to generate a postseason box score with […]
In case you need reminding, go ahead and rewatch Sunday’s game to see how much the Sixers miss Joel Embiid when he’s out. The team looked hopeless without the big fella, getting crushed by the Boston Celtics 123-91 in Game 1 Sunday. Sure, the Celtics are the favorites to get out of the East and […]
The Washington Wizards have completed Year 3 of their rebuild, ending a “deconstruction phase” that included countless trades, six first-round picks and 196 losses. General Manager Will Dawkins said the team will “try to compete” next season, but hesitated to provide greater expectations. It appears Washington will use the 2026-27 season as an evaluation year, […]
Benny Snell Jr. holds a permanently revered place in the history of Kentucky football; few will have had as big an impact under Mark Stoops. He helped win a Citrus Bowl, and did it playing a smashmouth style that made everyone say Snell Yeah. As one of the most talented and beloved running backs to […]
Well, even the little sliver of optimism I had for this Sixers-Celtics series evaporated rather quickly on Sunday. Boston was dominant and the Sixers looked out-classed in every facet of Game 1. It looks like it’s going to be a long week for Sixers fans as their team marches their way to inevitable doom. Until […]
Barcelona star Lamine Yamal added another trophy to his cabinet on Monday night as he was crowned Laureus Young Sportsman of the Year. The teenager won the Laureus “Breakthrough of the Year” award last year and has now been handed another gong at the glitzy ceremony. Speaking after picking up his latest trophy, Yamal said […]
Tyrese Maxey is like the wind. He gets up to dangerous speeds, and can make you feel uncomfortable. Fortunately, Boston brought their windbreaker, and inside TD Garden there wasn’t even a breeze. Without Joel Embiid, Game 1 was all about Maxey. We knew that, he knew that, and most importantly, so did the Celtics. Maxey […]
