Anthony Davis has had enough of the New Orleans Pelicans playing the part of unlikely bottom-feeder. Entering the 2015-16 regular season, the Pelicans were considered playoff locks.

An all-time start to the season has overshadowed Steve Kerr’s absence as he continues to deal with and recover from complications that arose after [...]

At 31, with an NBA title window that’s rapidly drawing to a close, Carmelo Anthony often looks out of place on the New York Knicks. Indeed, the Knicks, unlike last season, are watchable. Rookie Kristaps Porzingis is proving that he’s NBA-ready, not a years-long project, and New York might even contend for a playoff spot [...]

A lot of sports fans use Bleacher Report’s Team Stream app to follow their favorite sports teams and players.
