Things may very well get worse for the Brooklyn Nets before they get better. The 2024-25 season was not yet rock bottom for the Nets. That was a roster that still had quality players such as Cam Johnson and even D’Angelo Russell did some damage for them towards the end of the season. Cam Thomas […]

The Utah Jazz have been stuck in neutral over the past three seasons, and considering how stacked the Western Conference is, there is no way anyone can look at their roster and think that they’re ready to challenge for a playoff spot anytime soon. This is especially the case in the aftermath of the trade […]

The NBA free agency market has stalled since the window to negotiate new contracts first opened in the evening on June 30.

The first wave of NBA free agency has come and gone. While the majority of big-money moves have already been made, there are still a lot of talented players left on the open market.

The Golden State Warriors still control Kuminga’s future, with the 22-year-old forward being in restricted free agency, and this seems to have complicated matters for the seventh […]

The Chicago Bulls are no strangers to reinvention. From the championship glory days of the ’90s to the “Baby Bulls” era and the brief Derrick Rose-led renaissance, the franchise has always seemed a move or two away from contention. With a roster that’s been reshaped over the past year, Chicago now stands on the brink […]

The Washington Wizards are not going to sign just any impactful player in NBA free agency. They need to prioritize guys who fit their current rebuild plan, which is progressing but still has a long way to go until it reaches completion.

The NBA is preparing for a rather lackluster free agency period where, unlike previous seasons, money is not being tossed around left and right. Teams are a lot more conservative with their spending as a result of the apron penalties that exist, and this free agent class as a whole is extremely underwhelming. LeBron James […]

The Sacramento Kings are looking to make some moves this offseason, and general manager Scott Perry wants to shift this team.

When taking account of the largely unpredictable melee that was the 2025 NBA playoffs, the Golden State Warriors probably believe they had a realistic chance at contending for a championship with a healthy Stephen Curry.
