The Cavaliers seem to be pulling out of their early season swoon as winners of four straight games to improve their record to 9-7 on the season. They are in dire need of a point guard though as with Kyrie Irving leading the NBA’s premier team in Boston at the moment, Isaiah Thomas recovering from [...]

The bizarre Markelle Fultz saga in Philadelphia continues. The No. 1 pick of the 2017 NBA Draft has averaged 6.0 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists in four appearances this season, and has been out for the past month because of soreness in his right shoulder. By now you know the story, he apparently changed [...]

Like in many other areas of his professional and personal life, LeBron James may be at the forefront of a new era of professional athletes who are outspoken about their beliefs and willing to add their commentary on controversial issues that are facing the country. The issue that has seemingly caused the most controversy and [...]

Do not try blaming head coach Terry Stotts for the Portland Trail Blazers’ unimpressive 9-7 start. Damian Lillard isn’t having it. Some fans tried to do as much within the comments section of an Instagram post promoting the team’s Saturday night date with the Sacramento Kings, which ended up being another notch in the win [...]

The Los Angeles Lakers won’t stop riding with Lonzo Ball. While the rookie point guard created waves when he didn’t join a scuffle during the Lakers’ loss to the Phoenix Suns, the team isn’t sweating it.

Among every player in the NBA who might, quite possibly, maybe rush to Twitter immediately after a game, [...]

It doesn’t feel that long ago that David Lee was putting up double-doubles on a near nightly basis for a young Warriors team with his knack for cleaning up the glass and his soft touch around the rim. Lee, who hasn’t been on an NBA roster this season, announced his retirement from the NBA Sunday [...]

Kristaps Porzingis and the New York Knicks continue to catch people off-guard. Most expected them to be worse than this—much worse. Even though they’re in lockstep with their expected record roughly 15 games into the season, the notion of them hovering about .500 for this long is still disarming. To everyone outside the locker room, [...]

Kevin Durant isn’t worried about his relationship—or, rather, lack thereof—with members of the Oklahoma City Thunder organization. Although he admits to Bleacher Report’s Ric Bucher that he still isn’t talking to Russell Westbrook, Nick Collison, general manager Sam Presti, et al., he’s confident that will all change over time: Now, a month into his second [...]

Kyle Kuzma, all of 22, is out here being the voice of reason. People have taken to disparaging Los Angeles Lakers rookie Lonzo Ball in recent weeks—more so than usual.
