Those will make Nuggets rookie Christian Braun feel much better after Morant scored plenty of points on […]

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic is really a point guard trapped in a giant’s body. In the third quarter of Tuesday night’s home game against Ja Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies, Jokic dropped a ridiculous between-the-legs pass to a cutting Bruce Brown, who put the cherry on top of that spectacular sequence with a dunk. […]

No quarterback has been sacked more in the 2022 NFL regular season so far than Chicago Bears signal-caller Justin Fields.

Like him or not, Bill Simmons was correct in his prediction that the Phoenix Suns franchise will be sold for around $4 billion.

Despite missing the services of the tandem of Rudy Gobert and Karl-Anthony Towns, the Minnesota Timberwolves have managed to defy expectations and win all their last three games.

Derrick Rose isn’t what he used to be, and that might be an understatement. But while he’s no longer a nightly producer of highlight plays, he can still be quite a contributor for the New York Knicks when given minutes. With the NBA trade deadline only less than two months away, though, his name is […]

The Ohio State Buckeyes have a huge fight coming up as they will be playing the No. 1 Georgia Bulldogs in the College Football Playoff semifinal in the Peach Bowl.

Chris Finch tells @PAOnTheMic that he […]

Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers looked as though they were on their way to bagging their seventh win of the season last Sunday when they erected a 17-point lead over the Cincinnati Bengals in the second quarter of the contest at home.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was initially ruled out of Monday night’s game against Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers at home. Fortunately for Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder, he was eventually allowed to play. Without SGA, Oklahoma City probably wouldn’t have bagged a 123-121 victory in spectacular fashion. Gilgeous-Alexander drilled a smooth jumper off the dribble and just after […]
