The Orlando Magic and veteran forward Channing Frye have agreed on a 4-year, $32 million dollar contract, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports.

Rarely does a player remain with the same team all throughout his career, and it seemed as if Orlando Magic point guard Jameer Nelson would be included in this very short list. The former all-star from St. Joseph’s University was drafted back in 2004 together with Dwight Howard. And with the combination of him and [...]

So that was fun…for some teams. The 2014 NBA draft lottery is over. Finished. Kaput. Next stop, the NBA draft. Well, first we need to finish the Conference Finals. And crown an NBA champion. Then it’s on to the NBA draft. Here are some thoughts for each lottery team, along with their draft position, on [...]

Dante Exum is a wanted man. Excuse me, I mean wanted kid. The electric 6’6″, 18-year-old Australian guard is one of the most highly coveted prospects of this year’s NBA draft.

While many of you remain transfixed on your television screens, waiting to see how long it takes before Wichita State gets screwed by vengeful and begrudging bracketing practices, some of us still care about the NBA. And its playoff race. And whether or not LeBron James can win another [...]

Three cheers, eight fist-pumps and infinite twerks for movement. The NBA is rife with movement this week. Goliaths fell, Davids ascended and the enfeebled experienced success.
