Sixers’ Joel Embiid may not play this season but that hasn’t stopped him from showing off a ridiculous dunk and proving he looks raring to go next season. Check out this dunk from Embiid in super slow-motion. Yeahhhhh! He might be able to play now!

Hey look! A Lance Stephenson post where he isn’t doing anything negative on the court or in the locker room. Against the Raptors, the Bobcats guard had a nifty no-look pass to his teammate and in true Lance style, he trots away from the play, hand in the air and looking hyped!

Portland was dealt a huge blow when guard Wesley Matthews injured his Achilles heel. That injury will put him out for the rest of the season. Now Portland will have to march on without the sharp-shooting guard, leaving Wes feeling down, yet optimistic. Matthews took to his Instagram and left a heart-felt message to his fans, his thoughts […]

Like father, like son. NBA legend John Stockton was the master of the assist. He’s regarded as one of the best point guards of all time, holding the NBA record for most career assists. In fact, he is the NBA’s all-time assist leader. And it seems that the knack for finding the open man is in […]

The addition of Arron Afflalo at the trade deadline was supposed to beef up its depth, but now it seems dealing for the two-way veteran guard was a premonition ahead of Thursday’s terrible news for Portland. Injuries happen in the NBA — just ask Chicago and Oklahoma City — but Wes Matthews’ ruptured Achilles tendon […]

Oh Larry! Back in the day, Celtics legend Larry Bird and Hawks legend Dominique Wilkins had one hell of a rivalry on the court. The two would duel one another on the offensive side and put on some of the greatest one-on-one matchups the NBA has ever seen. Perhaps their best duel was in Game […]

The D-League’s Grand Rapids Drive was “en fuego!” And by on fire I mean REALLY on fire as the team dropped 20 (yes 20) three-pointers in a single game! Seriously, the team may have focused on nailing threes in the recent practice because several players just could not miss from beyond the arch!

Well, Clippers’ DeAndre Jordan will never live this down and Chris Paul might remind him constantly. The Clippers had 2.8 seconds to score versus Portland and Chris Paul missed a layup. Enter Jordan who snagged the rebound and apparently forgot how to tell time because there was .7 seconds left in the game and he […]

Usually when an opposing player is driving the lane and sees Kings’ big man DeMarcus Cousins, it usually ends up with that player backing up or Cousins rejecting it into the stands. However, that wasn’t the case this time. The Spurs’ Kawhi Leonard found himself going right at Cousins, but instead of retreating, he put […]

You remember when Gerald Green was in the dunk contest and showed off how kicks aren’t needed for him to throw it down? Well, he reminded everyone he still doesn’t need kicks to throw down a shoe-less, between the legs, windmill dunk. Yeah you read that right! Check it out. A video posted by Phoenix […]

Now that McGee is officially on the free-agent market – along with being eligible for the 2015 NBA Playoffs because he […]

It’s been a rough season, to say the least, for Durant and the Thunder, too, but KD has no plans to shut it down the rest of this season […]

February 2015 is over and it’s time to check in with the NBA’s D-League for the plays of the month. From players posterizing players, miraculous buzzer-beaters, and wild finishes at the rim, the boys from the D-League simply brought it on the court.
