The Indiana Fever played their preseason finale on Thursday against the Atlanta Dream and they got the result they wanted, as they scored a thrilling 83-80 win. And what’s a Fever game without people talking about Caitlin Clark? Clark wowed people who watched the game, especially during one play when she attacked the heart of the Dream’s defense, taking on four defenders all by herself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YngJjrRstMk&pp=ygUXY2FpdGxpbiBjbGFyayBwcmVzZWFzb24%3D Fans react to Indiana Fever Star Caitlin Clark’s Highlight Play Who said that Clark can’t take on the physicality in the pros?

The Boston Celtics are undeniably loaded. They have Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Jrue Holiday, and Derrick White. They also have Kristaps Porzingis, who is on the mend still after suffering an injury in the first round of the 2024 NBA Playoffs. With or without Porzingis, though, the Celtics should have not been beaten by such a huge margin by the Cleveland Cavaliers at home in Game 2. But that’s what happened, with Boston absorbing an embarrassing 118-94 loss at the hands of Donovan Mitchell and company. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VE6ssthWHZw&t=2s Boston Celtics’ Jayson Tatum Sounds off on Super Team Notion Such a loss…
For the second time in the 2024 NBA Playoffs, the Boston Celtics lost Game 2 of a series at home. Back in the first round, Jayson Tatum and the Celtics got ripped at TD Garden by the Jimmy Butler-less Miami Heat. On Thursday, they were taken down by the Jarret Allen-less Cleveland Cavaliers. As usual, the stars of the losing team became a prime target of fans online. In this case, it’s mostly the pair of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. Tatum and Brown did not make it hard for their haters, as they both had inefficient performances against the…
Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Caris LeVert was not going to let the haters win in Game 2. Following a letdown performance by the Cavs bench in Game 1’s loss to the Boston Celtics, LeVert took it upon himself to lead Cleveland’s backups in Game 2. On Thursday, the former Michigan Wolverines star stepped up and torched the Celtics for 21 points on 9/17 shooting from the floor and 3/4 from the free throw line. “Yeah we heard all the last couple of days that Donovan didn’t have no help…so we wanted to show up for him & for our team…
With the Cleveland Cavaliers missing Jarrett Allen due to an upper-body injury, Cavs big man Evan Mobley put on an inspired show Thursday night to help his team score a 118-94 road win against the Boston Celtics. Mobley was fantastic all game long. He concluded the night with 21 points and 10 rebounds plus two blocks and a steal, while making nine of his 15 attempts from the field. He was so good in the game that he managed to become the youngest Cleveland player to put such a sterling stat line in a playoff game since LeBron James. Via…
A post on X that has gone viral recently has become another proof of the incredible impact of Indiana Fever star rookie Caitlin Clark on women’s basketball. “One of the boys in my PE class just yelled “Caitlin Clark” as he took a deep 3. We’re in a new era people. Everyone watches women’s sports,” X (formerly known as X) user @Kalie623 posted. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXOYusrChsQ The Legend of Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark Continues to Grow Even before she made her preseason debut in the WNBA, Clark was already a big name, thanks to her unforgettable career with the Iowa Hawkeyes during…
One of the surprises in the NBA’s revelation of the MVP voting for the 2023-24 NBA season was that of Sacramento Kings big man Domantas Sabonis getting a vote. Sabonis is a terrific player, but many are still left shocked that he somehow had one voter convinced that he’s worthy of a fourth-place MVP vote. In the 2023-24 NBA campaign, Sabonis posted fantastic numbers while also playing all games in the regular season. He put up 19.4 points, 13.7 rebounds, and 8.2 assists, while also shooting nearly 60 percent from the field and posting a 60.9 effective field goal percentage.…
The Boston Celtics are looking like a death machine in the playoffs. Outside of their Game 2 loss in the first round to the Miami Heat, the Celtics have looked unstoppable. The Cleveland Cavaliers tasted Boston’s power in Game 1 of their second-round series last Tuesday, with the Celtics pounding out a 120-95 victory at home. A big reason for their success not just in that game but over their last few games, at least, has been Derrick White. In the series opener versus the Cavs, White went off for 25 points on 9/16 shooting from the floor. He was…
NBA Players have one of the best jobs in the world. It’s not easy work at all, but playing a sport –any sport actually – while getting paid handsomely is a dream the rest of us can only dream of. Oklahoma City Thunder small forward Jalen Williams is not taking his job for granted, and he made that clear following his team’s 117-95 win against the Dallas Mavericks in Game 1 of their second-round series at home Tuesday night. “I get paid millions of dollars to dribble a basketball up and down the court. It’s hard not to be happy,”…
The Oklahoma City Thunder’s best player this season is undeniably Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, but he’s not doing it all for his team in the playoffs. He still needs help and the good thing about his teammates is that they’re providing him ample support. In the Thunder’s Game 1 117-95 home win over the Dallas Mavericks, Aaron Wiggins came out of nowhere and helped Oklahoma City get to a good start in the contest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uz7DYOD832s&pp=ygUUYWFyb24gd2lnZ2lucyBnYW1lIDE%3D Aaron Wiggins Gives Oklahoma City Thunder a Nice Boost Off the Bench Wiggins fired 12 points in the first half and finished with 16 overall.
