Marcus Morris was traded from Phoenix this past summer and his brother Markieff didn’t take that news very well. He felt betrayed that his brother and teammate was now gone. He even went as far as to pretty much demand a trade and say he future was not with the Suns. Perhaps he realized that [...]

Paul Pierce is nearing the end of the road, but still signed a 3-year deal with the Clippers in his native Los Angeles. But just because he’s inked for 3 years doesn’t mean he’ll hang around the entire time. If the Clippers manage to pull it off this season, Pierce will hang ’em up. [...]

There’s nothing worse than a high-profile rookie going down with a season-ending injury. We saw a couple of times last year with the most prominent one being that of Jabari Parker. The first-year man out of Duke suffered an ACL tear midway through, but is expected back for camp. Good news for Bucks fans, as [...]

Last season was a rough go for Kevin Durant. He barely saw the floor due to a broken foot and missed much of the season. He had to sit idly by while his Thunder missed the playoffs. But he’s back and ready to go. KD has been fully medically cleared and will be a full [...]

After being strong all season long, the Hawks faltered down stretch in the playoffs. Sure, the Cavs were simply the better team, but losing Kyle Korver during that series and Thabo Sefolosha prior to the playoffs didn’t help. The good news is that they are getting better.

Anthony Bennett may be running out of NBA chances. The former #1 overall pick hasn’t come anywhere close to being the player most scouts thought he’d be and the Minnesota Timberwolves apparently aren’t interesting in waiting around to see if that will ever happen. The team is reportedly in talks to buy out Bennett’s contract, [...]
