Largely because of his crazy athleticism, Andrew Wiggins was taken first overall. I say largely because it’s clear he’s not the most NBA-ready player in this year’s draft. Jabari Parker seems much further along. Apparently, the rest of the NBA’s rookie class agrees. The rooks got together recently for a photo shoot and they were [...]

Greg Oden is a currently a free agent and this probably won’t help his pursuit of landing a gig. Oden has been cited after allegedly punching a woman in the face. The alleged incident happened last night/this morning in Indiana. We’ll see what comes of this. NBA player Greg Oden was arrested in Lawrence, Ind. [...]

In the latest Foot Locker spot, Charles Barkley provides James Harden with some very useful advice. The funny part about it is that this is probably how Charles actually feels. Scottie Pippen joined that action and even called himself the greatest Chicago Bull ever. Scottie lessens himself here, but it’s all in the name of [...]

Andrew Wiggins signed his rookie deal a few weeks ago and as a result, he can’t be dealt until the 23rd of August. But that doesn’t mean the Cavs and Wolves can’t still work on the deal. Apparently they have been and have agreed in principle on a trade. A “handshake” deal of sorts. Details [...]

Every now and then—okay, all the time—an NBA player says something you know isn’t true. This is one of those times. Breaking his relative silence on the NBA and his future in it, Ray Allen dismissed the notion that it was the Cleveland Cavaliers and LeBron James or bust, according to the Boston Herald‘s Mark [...]

It doesn’t get much worse than the injury Paul George suffered over the weekend. Injuries are a part of the game, but it’s unfortunate it had to happen during a scrimmage. Now, everyone is panicking over whether or not stars will want to play in international competition in the future. Let’s not get carried away: [...]
