The NBA has been surrounded with expansion rumors for years now, and it may finally come true. Adam Silver said he hopes to get an expansion plan done by the end of 2026. The two cities that are heavily favored to have teams are Seattle and Las Vegas. The city of Seattle has been hungry for another team since the SuperSonics left back in 2008. They later became the Oklahoma City Thunder, and it worked out for them pretty well. It’s not the same when the team isn’t in your

The Brodie is bouncing; Russell Westbrook has officially retired from basketball. And it’s a damn shame that he had to go out like that. Despite being a member of the NBA’s Top 75, a former NBA MVP, a nine-time NBA All-Star, a nine-time All-NBA performer, a 3x NBA assists champion and a 2x NBA scoring champion, Westbrook became a punchline on his way out the door. The fact that Russ currently ranks first amongst point guards all-time in points scored, first in rebounds, first

Less than a week ago, folks like me were absolutely convinced that LeBron James would be signing with the Golden State Warriors in free agency. Given how often James stressed the importance of family and wanting to be present for his daughter in his ways he couldn’t be for his two older sons, shooting up Interstate-5 to play his twilight years in Golden State - where he’d only be an hour-long flight away from his wife and kids – seemed like a layup. Draymond Green had already

“I am who I am. Take it or leave it. I’m not going to change my values and change my approach because someone feels uncomfortable.” – Jaylen Brown, Andscape (2016) The Boston Celtics sent shockwaves through the basketball world on Wednesday when they traded All-NBA forward Jaylen Brown to the Philadelphia 76ers in exchange for Paul George, two future first round picks and two future second round picks. Given that Brown was coming off a career season in which he averaged 28.7

“Darryn Peterson is the most talented player in this draft. That’s not a debate. But he’s also the most terrifying.” - Anonymous NBA general manager. When the Utah Jazz selected former University of Kansas superstar Darryn Peterson with the second overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, the message was clear: No risk, no reward. It was the second consecutive year that Utah used their lottery pick on a player who declined to visit the club during the pre-draft process. Recall form

As the final seconds ticked away in Game 4 of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ season-ending loss to the New York Knicks, thousands of Cavs fans begrudgingly shuffled their way out of Rocket Arena with the same single thought racing through their minds: LeBron James will save us again. This season, even at the ripe age of 41, LeBron proved he still has a lot left in the tank. He averaged 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists across 60 games acting as the de facto third option wit

It’s a day which will live in infamy in Lakerland. Before that night, the Los Angeles Lakers were seen as dark horse championship contenders. Since the NBA All-Star break, they were ranked No. 6 in offensive efficiency and No. 11 in defensive efficiency. The club had just completed a 15-2 stretch in the month of March, their winningest month as a franchise since 2000. Luka Doncic was averaging 40 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists per game over his previous 13 contests. The vib

Adam Silver has a problem on his hands. A big one. Monumental. The race for the NBA Most Valuable Player award has become a farce. In years past, Friday night’s clash between the Denver Nuggets and the Oklahoma City Thunder may very well have been one of those games that ultimately determines the MVP winner. For OKC, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander entered the game putting up the most efficient 30-points-per-game season in NBA history as the head of the snake of the best team in bask

The College Football Season is in its final stages as the final weekend of the regular season is here and there is a lot at stake for the teams that are vying for a College football playoff spot. Teams like Michigan, Miami, Utah, BYU and Vanderbilt are examples of teams that can't lose the season finale of the respective college football season. Michigan plays their archival Ohio State at home this Saturday and a win could potentially get the Wolverines in. Miami has to go on

The College Football Season is only 2 weeks away from coming to an end as teams vying for the College Football Playoff scenario. Last week had a lot of ramifications on the line especially a plethora of games like Texas A&M who was #3 in the country which came back from a 30-3 deficit at home against unranked South Carolina and was able to win by score of 31-30. Unranked Clemson Tigers last week upset #20 Louisville on the road by score of 20-19. #11 Oklahoma beat #4 Alabama
