Kim Mulkey has consistently shown us where she stands on social matters. She leans to The Right, which is her right. But when 83 percent of your team are women of color, it’s on you to answer for how your employer’s decisions will affect them. – Carron J. Phillips Read More

Nobody expected the NBA trade season’s first domino to fall on New Year’s Weekend. When OG Anunoby, Precious Achiuwa, and Malachi Flynn were traded from the Toronto Raptors to the New York Knicks for RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley, and a 2023 second-round pick (from Detroit), the trade season officially began. The deal seemed to be a win-win for the two teams, who both filled positional needs. The Knicks desperately needed a big, sharp-shooting wing and the Raptors needed to find a future point guard. – Lee Escobedo Read More

One chapter in the Draymond Green saga is closing and a new one is beginning. He was reinstated by the NBA and has returned to the Golden State Warriors’ facility. Green has been away from the team for more than three weeks and is currently working to ramp himself up for game activity. – Stephen Knox Read More

This year, the NBA claimed their findings are that load management mumbo jumbo is not supported by scientific data. Yet, the Clippers are still so concerned about Kawhi Leonard’s circuitry that they will unplug him before they risk him overheating and hurting himself when necessary. On Sunday night, Tyronn Lue thought Leonard needed system maintenance. That’s the only way to explain his reasoning for benching Leonard at the 2:47 mark, trailing by three against a rival Lakers squad they’ve been chasing for five decades due to load-management protocol. On Sunday night, LeBron James rolled back the clock, flushed a ferocious dunk and unlocked a level the Lakers needed after a slump. The Clippers move more tentatively than that. Lue reinserted a well-rested Leonard with 17 seconds remaining, with the Clippers needing to foul, allowing the Lakers to escape with a 106-103 win. – DJ Dunson Read More

Many questions are left unanswered. Will the Lakers regain their contender status? Can the Thunder compete this year? Are the Knicks back? But, enough conjecture. Let’s get into who has gotten the most and least out of the 2023-24 season thus far. – Lee Escobedo Read More

Golden State is probably permanently entrenched as a middle-of-the-pack team. There are no renovating crumbling support beams around their Big 3 pillars because they are the source of deterioration. All they can do now is continue their reign as the most well-adjusted teammates ever cobbled together in a modern NBA dynasty and ease into their twilight with grace. – DJ Dunson Read More

The 2023-24 NBA season is over for Ja Morant and, quite frankly, it barely got started. He began the season with a 25-game suspension for a second offense of inappropriate use of a firearm on social media. Morant played all of nine games before suffering a shoulder injury that the Memphis Grizzlies announced is going to keep him out for the rest of this season. All that he and the Grizzlies will have from 2023-24 is his dunk on Victor Wembanyama, and the buzzer-beater in his return to the floor. – Stephen Knox Read More

It wasn’t long ago that the Atlanta Hawks were on the cusp of an NBA Finals appearance. They turned a 41-win campaign (in a 72-game season) into what many thought would be a launching point as perennial contenders. Now the Hawks’ halftime show announcements are more exciting than what’s happening on the court. Seemingly overnight Atlanta went from the next big thing in the Eastern Conference to let’s blow it up and start over, again. – Criss Partee Read More

What If I told you that we’re almost at the halfway point of the NBA season and two teams with two of the best young players in the league don’t have 10 wins between them? And what if I told you that tonight’s matchup between Cade Cunningham’s Detroit Pistons and Victor Wembanyama’s San Antonio Spurs should be a game that every player with hoop dreams should be required to watch on NBA League Pass? – Carron J.

Netflix is teaming up with the NBA to do a basketball version of the NFL Quarterback Show series. Since Hollywood and sports are about copycatting what’s worked in the past, it’s no surprise the streaming service is immediately following up with a hoop’s version. Cameras will follow around five of the NBA’s brightest: LeBron James, Jimmy Butler, Jayson Tatum, Domantas Sabonis and Anthony Edwards. – Criss Partee Read More
