Things went south for the Phoenix Suns season long ago (or have they? Lottery balls..) and they found themselves in a similar position on Thursday night in Utah being down big late in the game. This time they let their frustration get the best of them and they took it out on Jazz point guard [...]

Clyde the Glide Drexler has been named the new commissioner of the Big3 as it heads into its second season this summer. Drexler served as a coach in the league last season (is that even necessary?) and has now signed a three-year deal to be commissioner. He replaces fellow former NBA player Roger Mason Jr., [...]

Oh, how things have changed for the Cleveland Cavaliers. It used to be that Kevin Love was the odd All-Star out—the less important of three A-listers, the one who needed to make the most sacrifices, the name most likely to crop up in offseason and midseason trade rumors. But here we are, almost four years, [...]

Isaiah Thomas is happy to be a member of the Los Angeles Lakers…for now. After this season, though, all bets are off. In the most fundamental sense, both Thomas and the Lakers may be traveling two different paths. They’re trying to max out two superstars, including LeBron James, Thomas’ former teammate. The 5’9″ point guard, [...]

So, um, this is a little depressing. Worrisome, too. Kyrie Irving left the Boston Celtics’ Sunday loss to the Indiana Pacers with soreness in his left knee and is expected to miss some time as he rests up for the playoffs. That’s fine in a nutshell. The Celtics won’t catch the Toronto Raptors for first [...]

Kristaps Porzingis isn’t worried about his road to recovery from a season-ending ACL injury. He’s sure he’ll return to the New York Knicks as an All-Star. From ESPN.com’s Ian Begley: “I believe that I’m going to come back better and stronger,” Porzingis said Tuesday in his first public comments since he suffered a torn left [...]

The Cavaliers are meandering along around .500 at this point, trading wins with bad teams and loses with decent teams as they maintain their status in the middle of the eastern conference playoff standings at 38-28. LeBron James is feeling out his new teammates and doing so while continuing to seemingly reach new heights as [...]

We will not be seeing Kawhi Leonard return from a right quad injury and rescue the San Antonio Spurs’ playoff hopes. Not this week anyway. Though Leonard seemed like he was set to play in his first game since mid-January when the Spurs take on the New Orleans Pelicans this Thursday, his return has since [...]

LeBron James? LeBron James Jr.? In the NBA? At the same time? It could happen. And LeBron senior is hoping it does: This would be cool.
