It is the NBA offseason so what better time for players to improve on their game heading into the new season.
You know, getting up early, keeping up your conditioning, and… hitting the local Walmart? Well, if you are DeMar DeRozan, that is exactly what you do.
The Raptors’ star player decided while at a Walmart, he might as well work on his dribbling skills by going through the store’s aisles with the ball.

The 2014 NBA Finals will go down in history for many memorable moments. Such as the Spurs winning title No. 5 in franchise history, the last games played by LeBron James with Miami, James infamous cramping moment in Game One, and speaking about Game One . . . the night the AT&T Center’s air-conditioner blew […]

Utah Jazz rookie Dante Exum made his pro debut at the Vegas Summer League and needless to say, Jazz fans have something to look forward to next season from the rook.
From his ability to run the floor, great quickness, impressive hops, solid basketball IQ, and much more, Dante looks good and will only get better once the real season starts.
Don’t let his final stat line fool you (10 points, 4-of-10 shooting, three rebounds and three assists in 30 minutes), he looks NBA ready-made.

The Thunder have one of the more intriguing teams here at the Southwest Airlines Orlando Pro Summer League. They are the defending champions of the Summer League (with players returning, if that matters). They have players with deep Playoff experience working on individual skills. That is going to be part of the Thunder’s goal this […]

It must not be fun to be on the Bulls Summer League roster. Not only are you competing and fighting for an opportunity to be in the NBA and scratch out a living as a basketball player when all of a sudden a former MVP and All Star is barreling down the lane at full […]

It is safe to say Kevin Love’s time in Minnesota is done. Minnesota has been trying to trade the All-Star forward but so far, no trade has panned out such as the one reported trade to the Warriors. However, reports are still floating about that the Celtics are trying to land the big man according […]

No one is quite sure at this point what the Heat will do now that LeBron James has decided to leave Miami and return to Cleveland. Any time a superstar like James leaves an organization, there is destruction left in his wake. The organization has to re-assess its position and how best to rebuild and […]

LeBron James let the media twist in the wind as he thought about where he would play next year. He kept quiet and kept the decision to himself. He wanted to make sure this was the right decision for himself and his career. At 30 years old, James has won his championships (two of them, […]
