Ginobili Basically Forced Coach Pop to Play Him vs. Knicks

Kristaps Porzingis Injures Neck in Loss to Spurs, But Should Be Fine

Kristaps Porzingis is hurt. Again. But his injury isn’t believed to be serious. Again. Late in the fourth quarter of the New York Knicks’ 94-84 loss to the San Antonio Spurs, Porzingis and Carmelo Anthony were involved in a chaotic scrum for an offensive rebound; Anthony came up with it and either fell or stepped [...]

Washington Wizards Made Smart Move Not Yet Re-Signing Bradley Beal

The Washington Wizards would be smart to offer a contract extension to starting shooting guard Bradley Beal, but they made an ever wiser decision to delay the negotiations.

Extension or Not, Dion Waiters is Happy With the Thunder
