Cam Thomas is one of four restricted free agents who have yet to decide on their future this NBA offseason. Although the Brooklyn Nets would like to bring Thomas back, there is a caveat to this matter, which is the same situation Jonathan Kuminga, Josh Giddey, and Quentin Grimes find themselves in. The fact of […]

ARLINGTON, TX — The Dallas Wings have continued to fight despite a difficult overall 2025 WNBA season. Dallas holds an 8-23 record heading into Sunday’s game against the Washington Mystics, yet the Wings are often competitive in games. Paige Bueckers, who missed Friday’s game with a back injury but is available Sunday, explained why the […]

The Michigan football team has some things to fix offensively if it wants to be a contender this season, and everything out of fall camp suggests that things are trending in the right direction. We know that the Wolverines will have solid running backs as Jordan Marshall and Justice Haynes have proved to be superb […]

With Colston Loveland gone to the NFL, the Michigan football team is going to need a new tight end to step up this season. Marlin Klein’s time is here. Klein got a good amount of playing time last season, and he showed a lot of promise. We all know how much the Wolverines love to […]

SAN FRANCISCO – It’s no secret the Golden State Valkyries miss Kayla Thornton. After losing Thornton, the first All-Star in Valkyries history, to a season-ending knee injury, the team missed everything she brought to the organization. From her two-way excellence as the team’s connector, to her personality off the court and the joy she brought […]

SAN FRANCISCO – The Golden State Valkyries secured an important head-to-head tiebreaker over the Los Angeles Sparks in their 72-59 win at home. Veronica Burton, who has started all 30 games of the Valkyries’ season so far, played a huge role in the team getting back in the win column after two disappointing losses to […]

After the Los Angeles Sparks set a WNBA record for becoming the first team to score 100+ points in five out of six games, the law of averages was bound to occur. It may have come at a very inopportune time against a crucial opponent, but Sparks head coach Lynne Roberts is not going to […]

The 2025 WNBA All-Star Weekend was a special one for former Connecticut Sun guard Kelly Faris. For one, Faris was born in Plainfield, Indiana and starred at Heritage Christian High School in Indianapolis so All-Star Weekend was a homecoming of sorts for her. Secondly, Faris was tapped to serve as a coach during the Basketball […]

The Michigan football team is still working hard to secure a top 10 class in the 2026 cycle, but the Wolverines might be knocking the most important position off their 2027 checklist soon. Four-star quarterback Peter Bourque picked up a prediction to commit to Michigan on Saturday. Bourque is one of the best QBs in […]

One of the biggest question marks surrounding the 2025 Michigan football team is the wide receiver room. The Wolverines were abysmal offensively last season, and the inability to create explosive plays through the air was why. It’s hard to tell how much of the fault falls on the WRs as Michigan was far from having […]

Last year’s Michigan football team was an interesting one. The Wolverines had one of the best defenses in the country, but they also had one of the worst offenses in the country. The defense won them some big games, but with an offense that bad, it was impossible to be a true contender. Michigan knew […]

There are several restricted free agents still seeking to resolve their free-agency matters this NBA offseason. Jonathan Kuminga and the Golden State Warriors remain far apart in their discussions, whereas Josh Giddey and the Chicago Bulls have a path to a new deal. Another restricted free agent negotiating his future is Quentin Grimes with the […]

It’s been a summer of change for the Boston Celtics, as they’ve made several major moves to afford their roster. One thing that largely remained the same is the coaching staff, which was further cemented on Friday morning by a multi-year contract extension for Celtics skipper Joe Mazzulla. The Rhode Island native has led the […]

It’s only the preseason, but the New England Patriots gave their fans a good number of things to be excited about in their 48-18 win over the Washington Commanders in their exhibition season opener. Most of the Patriots’ starters also got some run in Friday’s game, while over two dozen Commanders players sat. Still, New […]

LOS ANGELES – After the Los Angeles Sparks defeated the Connecticut Sun, 102-91 on Thursday, their current hot streak reached nine wins in the last 11 games. That streak began right before the All-Star break, and it has the Sparks firmly in the mix for a playoff spot. Following the win, a game in which […]

DALLAS — Arike Ogunbowale is a four-time WNBA All-Star. Since making her debut in 2019, Ogunbowale has finished 17th or better in WNBA MVP voting each season. Arike has finished 10th or better in five of her six seasons. Yet, in 2025, Ogunbowale has not been able to find any level of consistency. Sure, Ogunbowale […]

ARLINGTON, TX — The Dallas Wings are hoping to finish the 2025 season strong. Forward Maddy Siegrist recently returned from injury, something that will provide a boost. Before Friday night’s game against the New York Liberty, Siegrist and other players were asked about their individual goals and performances for the rest of the 2025 campaign. […]

The Michigan football team has a very talented recruiting class coming in, and we all know of one freshman that is likely to earn a starting role. That player is quarterback Bryce Underwood. Underwood was the #1 overall player in the 2025 recruiting class, and he will probably end up winning the QB battle. There […]

One of the top players in the 2026 recruiting class will be announcing their decision soon, and the Michigan football team is one of the top schools. Five-star running back Savion Hiter is committing on August 19th, and the competition seems to be between Michigan and Tennessee. Hiter is the top RB in the 2026 […]

The Michigan football team didn’t get a lot of production from its wide receivers last season, so that was a big thing that needed to be addressed in the offseason. The Wolverines didn’t bring in a ton of new talent in the transfer portal, but one intriguing addition is Indiana transfer Donovan McCulley. McCulley is […]

LOS ANGELES – It’s been four games since Cameron Brink made her return from injury, and the Los Angeles Sparks have gone 3-1 in that stretch. It’s a continuing trend from the team whose current hot streak began just before the All-Star break before Brink returned to the lineup. But it can’t be overstated how […]

PHOENIX– It felt personal for DeWanna Bonner during the Phoenix Mercury’s 95-60 win over the Indiana Fever on Thursday. A plethora of storylines highlighted the game, outside of Bonner. For instance, it was Sophie Cunningham’s first return to Phoenix since being traded in the offseason. Additionally, it was Bonner’s second time playing against Indiana, following […]

PHOENIX– Not many players have the chance to play with two generational players. However, Indiana Fever forward Sophie Cunningham has had the chance to play with Diana Taurasi. In 2025, she’s playing with Caitlin Clark. Although the two players have different styles, there is a striking similarity, Cunningham pointed out before Thursday’s game. Sophie Cunningham […]

PHOENIX– For five seasons, Sophie Cunningham was a beloved figure for the Phoenix Mercury. After Cunningham was traded to the Indiana Fever in a 3-team trade for Satou Sabally, the X-factor missed her personality, on-court presence, and toughness. During her pregame warmups, she went over to a scrum with reporters. With her bright smile, she […]

PROVIDENCE — Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum still has a lot of work to do before he’s back on the court, but he’s shown progress in his recovery from a ruptured Achilles. Nowhere was that more apparent than in Providence on Thursday morning, as the 2024 NBA champion walked around the Manton Heights neighborhood without […]

Jonathan Kuminga isn’t the only restricted free agent being held up in negotiations this offseason, as Josh Giddey and the Chicago Bulls have yet to find common ground on a new contract. The main difference between Giddey’s situation and that of Kuminga with the Golden State Warriors is that all signs point to the 22-year-old […]

The standoff between Jonathan Kuminga and the Golden State Warriors has been the main talking point of the NBA offseason and free agency. Since no team in the league has cap space other than the Brooklyn Nets, and with Kuminga being a restricted free agent, his market has been extremely limited to this point. While […]

The New York Knicks made some additions in the 2025 offseason. They signed dynamic guard Jordan Clarkson, as well as burly big man Guerschon Yabusele. And they also locked up Mikal Bridges to a long-term extension and added new head coach Mike Brown. One move that understandably flew under the radar was the drafting of […]

The Washington Mystics weren’t using second-year forward Aaliyah Edwards to her full potential this season, which was an unfortunate side effect of No. 4 overall pick Kiki Iriafen’s All-Star campaign. That’s why they dealt her to the Connecticut Sun for second-year guard Jacy Sheldon and a 2026 first-round pick swap hours before the WNBA Trade […]

The WNBA trade deadline ends on August 7, and the Phoenix Mercury have some decisions to make. Although they have an 18-11 record, there might be some more additions they can make. Without further ado, here are three targets that the purple and orange could target. Jessica Shepard to the Mercury? Jessica Shepard would be […]

For the second consecutive season, sportsbooks are projecting the Brooklyn Nets to finish towards the bottom of the NBA. The team’s over/under win projection for 2025-26 opened at 20.5, tied for the second-lowest in the NBA, per FanDuel. NBA insider Tim Bontemps called tanking a necessity for the Nets while giving his over/under prediction. “I […]

SAN FRANCISCO – The greats always stress that to achieve something worthwhile, it all begins with sacrifice.

Ahead of the Valkyries’ match with the Las Vegas Aces, Nakase expressed her pride in the fact that her players have […]

The Brooklyn Nets are embracing a full rebuild entering the 2025-26 NBA campaign. A rebuild often entails a focus on draft positioning and, in turn, losing. That’s why many analysts expect the Nets to finish towards the bottom of the league next season. NBA.com ranked Brooklyn dead last in the Eastern Conference in its latest […]

SAN FRANCISCO – The Golden State Valkyries’ loss to the Las Vegas Aces did not feel as close as the 78-72 final score indicated.

Here are three takeaways from a […]

LOS ANGELES – Following the Los Angeles Sparks’ 100-91 win against the Indiana Fever on Tuesday, the team pushed their current win streak to two games.

LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Sparks continued their hot streak, having won eight of their last ten games now following their 100-91 win against the Indiana Fever at home on Tuesday.

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White has accomplished a lot in his basketball career, winning everything from a gold medal to an NBA championship. Yet, the 31-year-old has failed to do something that various players across the league have: receive a technical foul. White, who’s known for being relatively mild-mannered, isn’t one to complain to the […]

Philadelphia 76ers star Tyrese Maxey had a career year during his 2024-25 campaign, but his team struggled to put together wins on a consistent basis.
