Bam Adebayo Posts A Strong Performance In Game 1

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo complimented Jimmy Butler very well on Sunday as they posted a 13-point victory over the Bucks. The 25-year-old registered 22 points, nine rebounds, seven assists, and two steals while shooting 10-for-18 from the floor and 2-for-3 from the free-throw line. One of Adebayo's criticisms has always been about his level […]

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) isn't listed on the league's official injury report ahead of the Game 1 matchup with Denver.

However, he was still out there for the play-in game versus OKC on Friday, finishing with a double-double in 33 minutes of work. It will be surprising if Gobert isn't available […]

Chet Holmgren Progressing Toward Five-On-Five

Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Chet Holmgren (foot) is making promising progress toward returning to the court.

J.T. Realmuto Getting The Day Off On Saturday

Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto is getting the day off on Saturday against Graham Ashcraft and the Cincinnati Reds. The 32-year-old backstop is really struggling in the early going, slashing .229/.240/.396 with one home run, five RBI, and one stolen base over 48 at-bats. Garrett Stubbs is starting behind the plate and batting ninth in […]

Patrice Bergeron Misses Saturday's Practice For Rest Purposes

Boston Bruins center Patrice Bergeron (upper body) missed Saturday's practice session. He exited the team's final regular-season game against Montreal Thursday for precautionary reasons and it's been reported that he rested for the same reasons on Saturday. The veteran appears to be banged up a bit, but Bergeron famously played through the 2013 Stanley Cup […]

Mikko Rantanen Hands Out Two Assists In Friday's Win

Colorado Avalanche forward Mikko Rantanen played his part in Friday's 4-3 win over Nashville with two assists. Both of the helpers came on goals scored by Nathan MacKinnon.
