The story of Bishop Sycamore might be the craziest sports anecdote of 2021. An alleged “fake” high school from Columbus, Ohio set the Internet ablaze after the school fooled ESPN into airing one of its games against powerhouse IMG academy by telling them they had several Division I athletes on their roster. ESPN announcers admitted on the […]
Age, the cliché goes, is only a number. But in basketball it kind of really matters. That’s why the Lakers, with all their free agency wheelings and dealings, are so fascinating and, frankly, polarizing. After completely revamping the roster following last season’s first-round flameout, Los Angeles enters the 2021-22 campaign having added six new players 32 […]
The first blockbuster trade of the NBA offseason was a doozy. Tantalizing rumors that this transaction might happen first circulated roughly a week ago and it surprisingly came together quickly as the Wizards shipped Russell Westbrook to the Lakers, taking some major shine away from Thursday’s NBA Draft. Los Angeles sent Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Montrezl Harrel, Kyle […]
Across the street and roughly a handful of stories higher than the 10th floor where Jalen Suggs is dribbling and posing for pictures sits a massive, faux-vintage red “Welcome” sign that feels like it’s hovering over him. The backdrop at the 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge’s rooftop lounge, situated a Suggs’ halfcourt heave away from the […]
Welcome to the calm before the storm as NFL training camp is right around the corner. Finally, football is almost back. Even though massive trades have gone down and the majority of big-name free agents have signed, there’s still plenty of ways for franchises to improve their ever-evolving rosters. There are veterans around the league […]
Do we have a series? Maybe we do. Then again, maybe we don’t. Who knows after Game 3 turned out to be the complete opposite of what we saw through the first two games of the NBA Finals. But after the Bucks blistered the Suns, closing out the third quarter of Sunday’s showdown with 16-straight […]
Part of the strategy Milwaukee wanted to use in its quest to even up the NBA Finals Thursday wasn’t revolutionary. It was obvious. It was working. And it was mesmerizing. “We want Giannis attacking,” Bucks coach Mike Budenholzer said pre-game. Attack he did. Giannis Antetokounmpo was practically unstoppable in the paint, especially in the third […]
This year’s NBA free agency class was once upon a time shaping up to be transcendent. But thanks to a number of stars signing max extensions—like Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bam Adebayo, and Paul George—that’s no longer the case. After Kawhi Leonard and Chris Paul—whose playoff brilliance continued in Game 1 of the NBA Finals Tuesday—the caliber of available […]
CC Sabathia hasn’t pitched in a major league game since 2019, but if you want to see him playing ball these days make sure you check out the softball fields of Manhattan. That’s where you can find the former Yankees ace—looking way different than he did during his 11 seasons in pinstripes—crushing slow-pitch softball and […]
Given that the Nets are missing one-third of their Big Three, and another third is severely compromised, I think we can all agree it ain’t surprising that the odds-on-favorite to win the NBA title has been stretched to a seventh game in the Eastern Conference semis. Brooklyn is seriously in danger of getting bounced way […]
