The Washington Wizards benefitted a lot from Kristaps Porzingis in the past year.

The addition of Jrue Holiday this past offseason made the Boston Celtics one of the favorites, if not the frontrunner, to win the 2024 NBA championship. After all, Holiday, in addition to bringing some much-needed championship experience to the team, essentially serves as the upgraded version of Marcus Smart. However, on the surface, it seems […]

And without one of their two new stars in Kristaps Porzingis, the Celtics […]

The Big Apple boasts the loudest and most loyal fanbase on the planet which helps Jalen Brunson on a nightly basis. There is a reason why Madison Square Garden is considered the Mecca of basketball. It is because of the fans. But, these members of the New York Knicks faithful, as much as they would […]

Porzingis produced an impressive stat line in the Celtics’ 108-104 opening night win over the New York Knicks on Wednesday. He had 30 points, eight rebounds, and four blocks. Porzingis also made five of […]

Easily lost amid the understandable hysteria surrounding Jrue Holiday’s blockbuster trade to the Boston Celtics a few weeks ago is the two-time All-Star’s age and longevity in the NBA.

Jaylen Brown is also getting better along with Al Horford […]
