With less than 10 games remaining in the NBA season, 20 teams are effectively locked into either the playoffs or the Play-In Tournament and are jostling for position amongst themselves, nine are making a mad dash to the bottom of the standings in order to secure better lottery odds, and the New Orleans Pelicans should […]

For the Los Angeles Lakers, in a chase for the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference, the next three games are absolute must-wins. The West standings are so tight that a slip-up against one of the bottom three teams in the East could easily see Los Angeles relegated to the fifth or sixth seed. […]

As the 2025-26 NBA regular season winds slowly to a close, much remains to be determined. The 10 postseason participants in each conference are more or less set, but every game down the stretch will matter for seeding. Plus, though the MVP race has basically been settled (late charges by Victor Wembanyama and Luka Dončić […]

It’s already been a landmark week for the WNBA, which finally reached a CBA with its players and should avoid a lockout.

Just four years ago, the Golden State Warriors were the best team in basketball, out-lasting the Boston Celtics in six games to win their fourth title in seven seasons.

Perhaps it never left, but the Connecticut basketball dynasty is officially back. Last season’s national champions have won 50 straight games and are an overwhelming -265 favorite to win their 13th national championship. After this season’s 34-0 regular season, Geno Auriemma now has a career 1284-165 record, easily the highest winning percentage by any high-level […]

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. […]
