The Philadelphia 76ers are in desperate need of depth, but they don’t feel Corey Brewer is the answer.

This time, […]

The Los Angeles Clippers are considered a potential landing spot for New Orleans Pelicans superstar Anthony Davis, but the Clippers have yet to actually make an offer to the Pelicans, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

New England Patriots kicker Stephen Gostkowski has tons of playoff and Super Bowl experience, so Sunday night’s Super Bowl against the Los Angeles Rams was nothing new to him.

Do yourself a favor: don’t ask Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper if he imagines playing with Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. It won’t go over very well.
