Carmelo Anthony Tanks Once Again

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Carmelo Anthony struggles continued in a Game 6 loss. Anthony was nowhere to be found taking just seven shots and finishing the night with only seven points. Anthony was a game worse minus-19 on the night and the Utah Jazz continually attacked the forward on offense making him nearly unplayable. The […]

Paul George Struggles With Jumper In Game 6 Loss

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Paul George's jumper did not show up in his club's Game 6 loss to the Utah Jazz. George could only connect on two of his 16 attempts from the floor to finish with just five points in what could have potentially been his last game in a Thunder uniform. George was […]

Otto Porter Jr. is Questionable for Game 6

Washington Wizards forward Otto Porter Jr. (leg) is questionable for Friday's Game 6 against the Toronto Raptors. Porter has played in each of the first five contests of this series.

Toronto/Washington is the projected highest-scoring game on the slate, with OKC/Utah and Cleveland/Indiana […]

Marcus Morris Continues To Struggle From The Field

Boston Celtics forward Marcus Morris had another subpar shooting night in Game 6 against Milwaukee, going 5-for-14 from the field and 1-for-4 from outside to finish with 14 points. He now has three consecutive games with double-digit scoring, but the shooting hasn't been efficient in any game. However, that fact also shows that he's capable […]

Jayson Tatum Leads Celtics In Scoring Thursday Night

Khris Middleton Misses Just Once In Game 6

Milwaukee Bucks small forward Khris Middleton was nearly perfect from the field in Thursday's Game 6 against the Celtics, finishing 7-for-8 from the field, including 2-for-2 from outside. Bizarrely, Middleton only scored 16 points with his impeccable shooting, which is his lowest mark in the series. However, that's explainable by the fact that Giannis Antetokounmpo […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Scores Game-High 31 Points Thursday Night

Milwaukee Bucks small forward Giannis Antetokounmpo had his third game with at least 30 points in this year's playoffs on Thursday, scoring 31 in Game 6 against the Celtics.

Bojan Bogdanovic Finds His Range In Game 5

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Bojan Bogdanovic got back on track with his shooting in Game 5 against Cleveland, nailing half of his six triples and shooting 4-for-9 overall. His shot was completely off in Game 4, as he finished 4-for-13 from the floor and 2-for-8 from behind the arc, so he improved a lot. Bogdanovic finished […]

Thaddeus Young Misses Just Once In Game 5 Loss

Indiana Pacers forward Thaddeus Young continued his improved scoring form on Wednesday in Game 5 against the Cavs, as he missed just one of his nine shots to finish with 16 points and six rebounds. Young has been a lot more aggressive in the last few games and that has helped him to build a […]

Jae Crowder's 27 Points Not Enough

Utah Jazz forward Jae Crowder played his best game in a Jazz uniform, but it was not enough as his club lost by eight points to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Crowder showed up for this one by firing up 14 attempts from deep while connecting on a respectable six of them to finish the night […]

Carmelo Anthony Disappears In Game 5 Win

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Carmelo Anthony disappointed once again in his club's 107-99 win over the Utah Jazz in Game 5.

However, he is happy with his progress, but the Rockets have not given a timetable for Mbah a Moute's return. "He's closer," head coach Mike D'Antoni […]

Shabazz Muhammad Scores 11 Points In a Flash

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Shabazz Muhammad provided a great spark for the team in the second quarter of Game 5 against Boston, scoring all of his 11 points during a three-minute spell. Sadly for the team, he couldn't repeat it later when head coach Joe Prunty had him on the floor during the final six minutes […]

Jabari Parker Scores 17 Points Off The Bench

Milwaukee Bucks forward Jabari Parker had another good performance off the bench on Tuesday, scoring 17 points in 32 minutes against Boston.

He's now had three consecutive good […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Close To Triple-Double In Game 5 Loss
