Zion Williamson and the New Orleans Pelicans are heading to Thanksgiving with their craving for a victory satisfied following a 129-110 dismantling of the San Antonio Spurs Wednesday night on the road. Zion Williamson dropped 32 points on the Spurs, shooting 14-for-18 from the field with 11 rebounds in just 27 minutes. But perhaps the […]

Nikola Jokic is the Denver Nuggets’ walking triple-double machine, but on Wednesday night, a Nuggets player not named Nikola Jokic came away with a trip-dub. That would be forward Bruce Brown, who stuffed the stat sheets with a glorious across-the-board production of 17 points, 13 rebounds, and 10 assists. He didn’t stop there, as Brown […]

Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors had a walk in the park Wednesday night at home, as they easily defeated the Los Angeles Clippers, 124-107. Curry finished with 22 points, but it was Andrew Wiggins, who came up with the best offensive performance of the night from either team. Wiggins, who scored 31 points […]

Philadelphia Eagles defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon has been catching plenty of heat from Eagles fans, which really comes with the job. Being someone who’s part of the control team of the Eagles, who have one of the most rabid fanbases in the NFL, Gannon is always going to be criticized whenever there’s any drop in […]

The New Jersey Devils had the golden chance to set a new franchise record for most consecutive wins Wednesday night, but they failed in that mission in perhaps the most brutal of ways. The Devils lost to the Toronto Maple Leafs at home, 2-1, in a game where New Jersey had a goal allowed not […]

The Louisville Cardinals are having a nightmare of a season. They remain winless through six games after they just got blasted by the Cincinnati Bearcats Wednesday to the tune of an 81-62 score. Louisville basketball even had it worse in the game prior to that, as the Cardinals got absolutely hammered by the Texas Tech […]

Rob Gronkowski is still having fun out there. He’s having way more fun than most people, even though he’s no longer playing competitive football. For one, he’s busy picking up a different sport that doesn’t seem to love him back. We expect Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady to shoot a message to Gronk after […]

The Toronto Raptors are hosting the Brooklyn Nets Wednesday night, and they’re not being too nice to the visitors. In fact, Raptors forward OG Anunoby just served Kevin Durant a facial, putting the future Hall of Famer on a poster with this fastbreak dunk with less than a minute remaining in the first half. https://twitter.com/ClutchPointsApp/status/1595592534515908608 […]

The Buffalo Sabres are having quite an adventure in the 2022-23 NHL season. They started like a house on fire with four wins in their first five games of the campaign, then went 6-3 in the first nine. After that, the Sabres took a nosedive, losing eight games in a row in November. But the […]

By and large, Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku is having a productive season. However, he is struggling with an injury that is keeping him from adding more to his numbers this 2022 NFL campaign. It also appears that he might be in danger of missing the Browns’ Week 12 game due to knee and […]

Mike Williams fantasy owners should have a backup plan. The Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver doesn’t seem he is 100 percent a lock to play in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals on the road, as he went from being expected to practice Wednesday to not practicing at all. Daniel Popper of The Athletic earlier […]

Trey Lance was originally named as the starter of the San Francisco 49ers in the 2022 NFL season. He was the team’s starter in the first two games of the season, but a devastating ankle injury in Week 2 against the Seattle Seahawks left Lance ceding the role to veteran Jimmy Garoppolo. It was an […]

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has found himself under the spotlight after a the Washington Post published a photo of him in 1957 in the presence of other white students in Arkansas’ North Little Rock High seemingly trying to prevent African-American teenagers from entering the school. It looked as though Jerry Jones, then just a 14-year-old […]

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Patrick Beverley always has his teammates’ backs. Against the Phoenix Suns Tuesday night, Beverley quite literally got the back of his opponent, Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton, albeit in a fashion that led to Ayton hitting the ground and players from both sides on the verge of fighting. Ayton, however, […]

For at least a few moments in Tuesday night’s showdown between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Phoenix Suns, it looked as though it was really a battle between the Los Angeles Kings and the Arizona Coyotes all because of a vicious body check by Patrick Beverley on DeAndre Ayton in the fourth period. What […]

Anthony Davis gave the statisticians tracking Tuesday night’s game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Phoenix Suns all the work they can handle, as he posted a ridiculous stat line that no one before him had ever pulled off in the NBA — or at least since the 1973-74 NBA season (via ESPN Stats […]

Veteran NFL running back Melvin Gordon is currently unemployed following his release from the Denver Broncos.

Robert Griffin III did not hide his true feelings about what he perceives to be an SEC bias on the part of the College Football Playoff committee following the latest release of the CFP rankings ahead of Thanksgiving. The Committee really showing that SEC bias with 9-2 LSU over 10-1 USC and 9-2 Alabama ahead […]

The main objective of the game of basketball is to put the ball into the hoop, so how can someone like Philadelphia 76ers forward PJ Tucker manage to continue his lengthy career in the top league in the world? Even when put into perspective, the Sixers role player’s recent streak of scoreless outings can be […]

Ryan Leaf will always be known as one of the biggest NFL Draft busts in history, but that did not hinder him from scoring a hilarious Twitter victory recently against a New York Jets fan who referred to Zach Wilson as the “Mormon Ryan Leaf.” Leaf saw that comment and responded in a harmless manner. […]

The Dallas Cowboys blew the Minnesota Vikings out of the water in Week 11, scoring a 40-3 win on the road against a previously once-defeated squad. As the score suggests, the Cowboys played excellently on both ends of the field. Defensively, the Cowboys neutralized the Vikings’ high-flying attack, with DeMarcus Lawrence churning out a solid […]

Philadelphia 76ers fans can say all they want about Brooklyn Nets star Ben Simmons, but they can’t deny the fact that Simmons gave them free Chick-fil-A treats Tuesday night when he missed both free throws in the third quarter of this Sixers-Nets showdown. Philly fans lost it for some free Chick-fil-A after Simmons missed both […]

Ben Simmons and the Brooklyn Nets are in Philadelphia Tuesday night to play his old team, the Philadelphia 76ers. Nobody expected Simmons to play like Michael Jordan dropping 55 points on the New York Knicks shortly after making his comeback from his first retirement, but Simmons still managed to evoke some imagery of His Airness, albeit […]

The Washington Commanders will remember Sean Taylor with a heartfelt gesture on Sunday when the Atlanta Falcons visit them for a Week 12 matchup.

Jordan Clarkson is feeling like he’s in a Filipino version of Groundhog Day, especially when the Utah Jazz are on the road. Clarkson and the Jazz were in Los Angeles Monday night to play the Los Angeles Clippers and — you guessed it — there was a Filipino Heritage Night in that game. Clarkson bared to […]

The Stanford Cardinal haven’t been to a bowl game since 2018. That streak will continue this year, with Stanford football not being bowl-eligible again.

Before he became head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, Nick Sirianni was part of the coaching staff over the side of the Indianapolis Colts.

Jim Harbaugh took a jab at Ohio State Buckeyes head coach Ryan Day a year ago following the Michigan Wolverines’ win over their bitter rivals at home. Prior to that contest, Day made a comment that the Buckeyes will score 100 on Michigan. When the Wolverines eked out a 42-27 in Ann Arbor against Ohio […]

The New Jersey Devils just seem that they are incapable of losing games. You have to jog and then walk some more before you reach the last time the Devils lost a game. Since losing to the Washington Capitals late last October, the Devils have managed to stitch together a 13-year win streak, a stretch […]

Chicago Bulls star Zach LaVine was benched in the fourth quarter of the Bulls’ recent 108-107 home loss to the Orlando Magic. In that game, LaVine scored just four points on a horrid 1-for-14 shooting from the field. Even before he was benched, LaVine definitely knew how badly he performed in that game, regardless of […]
