Two months ago, the New York Knicks were in dire straits, having lost nine of their prior 11 games headed into a matchup at Madison Square Garden across their crosstown rival Brooklyn Nets. The game was never competitive; New York took an 18-6 lead and never looked back, winning by a franchise-record 54 points and […]

Just as it did last season, the seeding race in the Western Conference looks like it’s going to come down to the wire. Just three games separate the third-seeded Los Angeles Lakers from the sixth-seeded Denver Nuggets, and while the seventh-seeded Phoenix Suns’ four-game skid helps the top-six seeds feel a little bit more comfortable, […]

For all of their success in the men’s NCAA Tournament — they’ve made the Final Four eight times and cut the nets down once — it’s fairly surprising that the Michigan Wolverines’ women’s team has never made a Final Four and has a losing record in March Madness. This arguably could be Michigan’s best opportunity. […]

Texas is currently experiencing a golden era of women’s basketball. Last season, the Longhorns advanced to the Final Four for the first time since 2003, where they ultimately fell to eventual runners-up South Carolina. This season, Texas is once again a No. 1 seed, hoping to advance two wins farther than it did in 2025. […]

As it has for most of the season, the narrative surrounding the Milwaukee Bucks has centered around their relationship with Giannis Antetokounmpo. Milwaukee, which will receive the worse of its and the New Orleans Pelicans’ first-round picks, wants to shut Antetokounmpo down for the season after he suffered a hyperextended knee, while Antetokounmpo naturally wants […]

The Phoenix Suns and San Antonio Spurs have been among the league’s biggest over-achievers this season. Before the season, few expected the Suns to be fighting for a top-six seed, given that they’d just missed the playoffs entirely and traded away Kevin Durant. Arguably even fewer expected the Spurs to still be alive in the […]

Four seasons ago, the Golden State Warriors and Boston Celtics faced off in the NBA Finals. That series, which Golden State won in six games, will likely go down as the last title of the Warriors’ dynasty and the playoff lick that spurred Boston’s 2024 title. Now, the teams’ fortunes look very different: Golden State […]

Not all first overall picks are created equal. The 2025 top selection, Cooper Flagg, has turned into the Dallas Mavericks’ best player at just 19 years old and arguably has the highest trade value of anyone not named Victor Wembanyama. The Atlanta Hawks, meanwhile, have turned 2024 first overall pick Zaccharie Risacher into a role […]

Early in the season, the LA Clippers and New Orleans Pelicans both looked as if they’d gift playoff teams high lottery picks, as the Clippers started the season 6-21 with their first-round pick owed to the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Pelicans 3-22 with their pick going to the Atlanta Hawks. LA eventually turned it […]

It’s been a long time since the Milwaukee Bucks played meaningless basketball late in the season, but they’re quickly approaching that territory in 2025-26. Milwaukee has reached the postseason in each of the last nine seasons, the second-longest active streak in the sport. But with 15 games left in their season, the Bucks trail the […]
