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. Someone has already spoken with Ball about the situation, and head coach Luke Walton reiterated, per ESPN.com’s Ohm Youngmisuk, [...]

The Houston Rockets are really good at offense and the Phoenix Suns are really bad at defense. The Rockets clearly received a huge boost with the return of superstar point guard Chris Paul in Phoenix Thursday night as they scored 45 points in each of the first two quarters in their 142-116 spanking of the [...]

The Los Angeles Lakers aren’t exactly lighting up the nets from downtown this season. They are last in the NBA in three-pointers made through 15 games and are shooting a league worst, 28.8% from three-point range for the season. That is almost four percent worse than the next worse team, the Chicago Bulls at 32.2%. [...]

Chris Paul isn’t shy about his opinion of the Houston Rockets. The point guard is expected to be in the team’s starting lineup when it faces the Phoenix Suns on Thursday, marking just the second time he will suit up for his new digs all season. He hasn’t played since a bruised left knee forced [...]

Malcolm Brogdon didn’t sound too excited at first when the Milwaukee Bucks traded for Eric Bledsoe. Sure, the reigning Rookie of the Year and the inbound floor general play the same position, so there was that to consider. But he was also close with Greg Monroe, who was flipped to the Phoenix Suns as part [...]

The Phoenix Suns might be able to move Greg Monroe after all. The big man came over in the Eric Bledsoe trade, and at 27, joining a team with a jillion other bigs on the roster, he doesn’t really fit into the team’s long-term plans. But he has just one year and $17.8 million left [...]

Eric Bledsoe has only been a member of the Milwaukee Bucks for, like, a half-second, and he’s already underrated Giannis Antetokounmpo. Speaking with ESPN.com’s Chris Haynes after his trade from the Phoenix Suns, the point guard referred to Antetokounmpo as a top-10 player: “You’ve seen him,” Bledsoe said of Antetokounmpo. “I’ve watched him play like [...]

Hassan Whiteside was yanked from the Miami Heat’s Monday night loss to the Golden State Warriors for what appeared to be poor defensive effort. Afterward, he received what we can only assume was a stern-yet-loving-yet-also-concerned talking to from Miami Heat captains Goran Dragic, James Johnson and Udonis Haslem. The Miami Herald‘s Manny Navarro has the details: [...]

It doesn’t look like Jahlil Okafor will be getting the buy out he seeks. Not before the February trade deadline anyway. Though the Philadelphia 76ers declined Okafor’s fourth-year option, suggesting they’re willing to move on from him without any compensation, ESPN.com’s Adrian Wojanrowski is hearing that general manager Bryan Colangelo still wants to trade him: [...]

Things have gone south with the Phoenix Suns and Eric Bledsoe and appear to be irreconcilable at this point as Bledsoe hasn’t practiced or been with the team in over a week. While Suns General Manager Ryan McDonough says there is no rush to trade Bledsoe, the Suns would prefer to get a deal done [...]
