Along the way, Klay […]

Ever since the Carolina Panthers traded for the number one pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, it’s become abundantly clear that Bryce Young and CJ Stroud would be the first two players off the board in the draft.

The Miami Heat pulled off one of the more shocking upsets in Game 1 of the first-round playoff series across the NBA when they beat the Bucks 130-117.

In the first-round of the 2023 NBA Playoffs, the Atlanta Hawks weren’t given much of a shot to knock off the Boston Celtics.

The Boston Celtics entered the 2023 NBA Playoffs largely believing that they would be playing the Miami Heat in their first-round series.

The Oregon Ducks had a successful 2022 campaign, finishing with a 10-3 record and coming in at 15th on the final AP poll of the year. They will be hoping to carry that success over to the 2023 campaign, but it may be easier said than done, as their defense appears set to suffer a […]

The Boston Red Sox entered the 2023 season with fairly limited expectations, and for good reason.

The Memphis Grizzlies have had a bit of a rocky 2022-23 campaign, but none of that matters as they get ready to kick off their playoff campaign.

Instead, […]

After a strong regular season campaign, the Boston Celtics opened the 2023 NBA Playoffs in resounding fashion.

The Celtics throttled […]

The Golden State Warriors suffered a hard-fought loss in Game 1 of their first-round playoff series against the Sacramento Kings on Saturday night, with the final score settling in at 126-123.
