It’s about damn time. Markelle Fultz has been playing through a shoulder injury, a setback that has also, it seems, caused him to adjust his shooting motion. The returns, naturally, have not been good, which left many people to wonder why the Philadelphia 76ers didn’t see a problem with playing him. Crap hit the fan [...]

So, um, Courtney Lee and Tim Hardaway Jr. were not happy following the New York Knicks’ drubbing at the hands of the Boston Celtics. The root of their problems? A lack of concentration and synergy. Here’s what Lee said after the loss, per Newsday‘s Al Iannazzone: And here’s Hardaway, via the Record‘s Steve Popper: Lee then took [...]

The Cleveland Cavaliers may not be done tinkering with their starting lineup. Although they began the year running out both Derrick Rose and Dwyane Wade in the backcourt with Kevin Love at center, head coach Tyronn Lue elected to pivot fewer than five games into the season. Ahead of Tuesday night’s win over the Chicago [...]

More than four years later, former Cleveland Cavaliers general manager David Griffin has no problems admitting the obvious: The team screwed up in 2013 by drafting Anthony Bennett with the No. 1 overall pick. Now, Griffin wasn’t the Cavaliers’ GM at the time, but he was among the front-office staff that convinced Chris Grant, the [...]

Get ready for a different spin on LaVar Ball’s outspoken demeanor. Plenty of people have criticized his bravado—particularly his serial sentiments on how his son, Los Angeles Lakers rookie Lonzo Ball, is already a star and already better than incumbent superstars such as Stephen Curry. Washington Wizards head coach Scott Brooks is not one of [...]

Everyone expects Eric Bledsoe to be on the move. The Phoenix Suns basically excommunicated him from the team and have been talking with a bunch of other squads about potential deals since his now-notorious “I don’t wanna be here” tweet. Most believe this saga will end quickly. It might have already reached its conclusion by the [...]

DeMarcus Cousins does not miss being a member of the Sacramento Kings. He’s actually sad he didn’t get to leave them sooner. While sitting down with The Undefeated’s Marc J. Spears, the All-Star behemoth admitted, more than once, that he showed too much loyalty to a Kings organization that didn’t deserve him (via The Score’s [...]

Plenty of people are worried about Markelle Fultz’s shoulder injury, which has, apparently, prompted him and the Philadelphia 76ers to tweak his shooting form. The result, through four games: 33 percent shooting from two-point range, no attempted threes and a 50 percent clip at the foul line. It would seem, then, as if profound concern [...]

Marcin Gortat is not here for LaVar Ball guaranteeing a Los Angeles Lakers victory over the Washington Wizards on Wednesday. Following the Purple and Gold’s loss to the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday, LaVar, the outspoken father of Lakers rookie Lonzo Ball, said “The Wizards better beware, because Lonzo ain’t losing again. Not in the [...]

Andre Drummond made the mistake of talking trash to Joel Embiid on Monday night, and it, quite predictably, didn’t end well for him. Embiid tallied 30 points, nine rebounds and two steals on 11-of-15 shooting—plus seven turnovers—in the Philadelphia 76ers’ 97-86 victory over the Detroit Pistons. Afterwards, when asked about getting the best of the [...]
