NFL legend knows a thing or two about becoming a star in Indiana during his time playing for the Indianapolis Colts. That’s why he was glad when WNBA star Caitlin Clark moved there as a start to her journey as a professional basketball player. Clark first made a name for herself in college by becoming one of the most talented amateur scorers out there. By the end of her four-year stint with the Iowa Hawkeyes, the talented point guard broke Pete Maravich’s old record to become the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer. Unfortunately, Clark didn’t get the perfect conclusion to her…

In a battle between two unproven teams in the playoffs, the New York Knicks drew first blood against the Indiana Pacers in their series. This prompted NBA analyst Jay Williams to claim that the latter lost under questionable circumstances. In the first game of their series against each other, the Knicks took the 121-117 victory over Indiana. Jalen Brunson put on a great show when he posted 43 points on 53 percent shooting from the field, six rebounds, and six assists. Donte DiVincenzo made 25 points, while Josh Hart added a double-double of 24 points and 13 rebounds. The Pacers,…

Jamal Murray and the Denver Nuggets are down a 0-2 hole after losing again to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Surprisingly, Draymond Green came to the guard’s defense after he wasn’t suspended for his antics in that contest. In the second game of their series against each other, the Wolves went home with the 106-80 win over Denver. Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns exploded with 27 points each to lead their team to victory. Naz Reid and Nickeil Alexander-Walker contributed a total of 28 points to help cover Rudy Gobert’s absence due to the birth of his son. For his part, Murray…

Just recently, Rudy Gobert decided to skip Game 2 against the Denver Nuggets for the birth of his son. In turn, Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green questioned the Minnesota Timberwolves center’s decision on the matter. In the second game of the Western Conference Semifinals, the Timberwolves went home with 106-80 victory over the Nikola Jokic-led Nuggets. Both Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns exploded for 27 points each on more than 60 percent shooting from the field, with the latter grabbing 12 rebounds along the way. Also, Naz Reid and Nickeil Alexander-Walker each had 14 points from the bench to…

Like all famous beefs in the NBA, the one between Shaquille O’Neal and Dwight Howard has already lasted for a long time. But just recently, the latter reached out to the Los Angeles Lakers legend to settle all the animosity. The beef between the two big men started out in 2008 when Howard claimed he was Superman during that year’s All-Star Slam Dunk Contest. It should be remembered that O’Neal first used that moniker and even went on to star as Steel, a character derived from Superman, in 1997. Since then, O’Neal used his work as a host for Inside…

Victor Wembanyama was recently named Rookie of the Year, prompting various personalities to rain praises on the San Antonio Spurs star. Among those who gave the French big man his flowers is no other than Phoenix Suns All-Star forward Kevin Durant. Even before he was selected first by the Spurs, Wembanyama generated so much hype during his time playing in Europe. Thanks to a blend of size, ball-handling, stellar shot creation, playmaking, and impressive defense, most teams tanked for the chance to get him in the draft. After the offseason, a lot of eyes were on Wemby to see if…

It’s no secret Caitlin Clark is transforming women’s basketball right before our very eyes. The WNBA’s recent decision to provide chartered flights to all players is proof of that after the Indiana Fever bestowed that benefit to their top rookie this year. Clark established herself as one of the biggest names in women’s basketball after her impressive four year stint playing for the Iowa Hawkeyes. During her first NCAA Tournament run, the guard averaged 27.7 points on 43 percent shooting from the three-point line, 5.7 rebounds, and 6.6 assists. Those numbers would eventually grow to 33.3 points on 40 percent…

To say that Victor Wembanyama had a stellar rookie campaign in the NBA is a massive understatement. For NFL legend Shannon Sharpe, though, the San Antonio Spurs star is only bound to get better and eventually win MVP sooner than expected. After making so much noise in last year’s offseason, Wembanyama went first in the 2023 Draft as the Spurs’ top pick over other notable names, such as Scoot Henderson and the Ausar twins. And even though his first few games didn’t stick out, the French phenom quickly adapted and showed everyone what he’s capable of. Over the course of…

Having an elite core of Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, and James Harden should have been enough for the Los Angeles Clippers to dominate in the playoffs. Instead, they are now on the receiving end of a harsh Stephen A. Smith take after their first round elimination at the hands of the Dallas Mavericks. After acquiring James Harden at the start of the season, the Clippers showed everyone why they can be contenders. With Russell Westbrook on the bench, the trio of Harden, George, and Leonard dominated opponents during the first half of the regular season. Once the All-Star break was…

Even though Jimmy Butler has helped the Miami Heat contend during his time there, there’s a chance he’ll be playing for another team next season. After their playoff run ended, Pat Riley attempted to clear the air on the said issue. Butler first joined Miami in 2019 when the Philadelphia 76ers traded him there. In his first season with the team, the All-Star forward led the Heat to a surprising Finals appearance against LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers. In that series, Butler averaged 27.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 2.1 assists. However, they were defeated in six…
