The Brooklyn Nets did not expect to start Nic Claxton during Monday’s 106-104 win over the Memphis Grizzlies.

The Brooklyn Nets were projected to be the NBA’s worst team this season. Eight games in, they have the Eastern Conference’s third-best record at 4-4, and their veterans have played a crucial role.

Paul George made an instant impact in his first game for the Philadelphia 76ers, though he couldn’t overcome a scorching-hot Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns.

The Los Angeles Lakers lost both the battle and war during their 115-103 defeat to the Detroit Pistons on Monday night.

Despite Anthony Davis scoring 37 points, the Lakers received nothing from their supporting cast, as their bench combined for only ten points. After the loss, one of the Lakers’ two bench […]

Oh how different things would be if Draymond Green simply kept his hands to himself in one fateful practice session back in 2022.

Poole’s career seemed to be derailed […]

ATLANTA – The Atlanta Hawks hosted the Boston Celtics on Monday night, and just like they’ve been doing to most teams this season, the defending champions couldn’t be stopped.

DALLAS — The Dallas Mavericks were defeated by the Indiana Pacers 134-127 on Monday night. It was the second of a back-to-back for Dallas, and they fell just short against Indiana in the game.

The Golden State Warriors handled business against the Washington Wizards, 125-112, improving their early-season record to 6-1 thanks to their impressive depth, hot shooting, and smothering team defense.

The Memphis Grizzlies are making incremental gains individually and collectively but a 106-104 loss to the Brooklyn Nets has to feel like a step back in several ways. Ja Morant’s double-dose of 360-degree, hand-switching sensationalism was wasted even though most of the starters logged over 30 minutes. Taylor Jenkins had to tackle some tough issues […]

The Milwaukee Bucks are just three years removed from being crowned NBA champions, having won their title with a series victory over the Phoenix Suns.
