LeBron James continues to defy age and expectations. On Monday night, the 39-year-old superstar produced another unforgettable moment as the Los Angeles Lakers faced the Houston Rockets. Despite both teams struggling offensively early on, James stole the spotlight with an incredible shot that quickly went viral. During the first quarter, James showed his trademark skill by sinking a tough fadeaway jumper despite tight defence. The shot had fans and analysts buzzing, proving once again why he remains one of the league’s most exciting players in his 21st NBA season. At that point, James had recorded five points, two rebounds, and…
The Houston Rockets lost 104-98 to the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday night. Five players scored in double-digits for Houston. Houston and Los Angeles played a slow first quarter, both shooting very poorly. LA went on a 9-0 run after Houston got up early, and took the lead due to clamping Amen Thompson on defense. The Rockets were able to regain their lead back towards the end of the period, due to the Lakers missing threes against Houston’s zone. Shooting improved for the Rockets in the second quarter, and they ended the half shooting 46.7% from the field. Their shooting…
The Los Angeles Lakers took another step towards stabilising before the NBA playoffs, clinching a second consecutive victory after overcoming the Houston Rockets 104:98 in a regular season game at Crypto.com Arena.

The Californian team remains firmly in fourth place in the Western Conference standings with 46 wins and 29 losses, while the Rockets stay put in second with a 49-27 record. LeBron James came up clutch in the…
As the Cowboys continue to bolster their roster heading into year one of the Brian Schottenheimer era, COO and co-owner Stephen Jones says the team is looking to add an explosive second option behind CeeDee Lamb at the wide receiver position. “We’re still open to looking at a really explosive number two that could upgrade us,” Jones said. “But as I said, I like our room and certainly like the players we currently have.” As it stands, the only external addition the Cowboys have made thus far at the position this offseason has been the signing of Parris Campbell, who…
While the Cowboys weren’t exactly quiet during free agency this spring, there is still plenty of work to do for this team that finished 7-10 in 2024. Not only did they add some key players in free agency and via trades, but they also re-signed some of the core depth as well. Still, there are other guys on this team that must take that next step in order for the Cowboys to be successful in 2025. Today, we’ll continue the Next Man Up series with quarterback Will Grier. Name: Will Grier Position: Quarterback Experience: 6 years Games Played/Starts: 2/2 Years…
Put simply, Milan now face a make-or-break game against Inter, but that is no one’s fault other than their own. It is a depressing reality that has been come to terms with this season, and the Rossoneri are at their final chance. As Gazzetta dello Sport write, binoculars are now needed to see the Champions League places, with a nine-point gap now in place between the fourth and ninth. Mathematically, there is still a chance, but reality serves a much bleaker picture. So, with the Champions League all but gone, the focus has to be on achieving another European competition…
On Monday night, the Dallas Mavericks are playing the Brooklyn Nets (at home) in Texas. Klay Thompson had nine points, one rebound, three assists and one steal while shooting 3/5 from the three-point range in his first 11 minutes of playing time. Thompson also made NBA history by moving ahead of Hall of Famer Tiny Archibald (16,481) for 111th on the all-time scoring list. Following Archibald, the next player for Thompson to pass will be Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vucevic. Thompson is in his first season playing for the Mavs after spending 13 years with the Golden State Warriors. The…
The red-and-blacks are clinging to the national cup to partially salvage a season that, without qualification for the next Champions League, is already a failure. Winning the second trophy of the season after the Italian Super Cup would allow the Milan club to secure a spot in the 2025-2026 Europa League. However, winning the Coppa Italia will not be easy, as Milan’s semifinal opponent is the worst possible draw: Inter, the current Serie A leaders. The eventual final would pit them against either Empoli or Bologna. By lifting the national cup, the Rossoneri would also earn a place in next…
Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic and LeBron James connected on an assist and dunk earlier this month against the Memphis Grizzlies. Many think it was reminiscent of another moment between James and Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade that happened 15 years ago. A video comparison recently showed the James-Doncic combo was super similar to when Wade made a pass to James for a dunk against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Washington Wizards have ruled out starting forward Khris Middleton as well as fifth-year forward Anthony Gill ahead of their matchup against the Miami Heat tonight. Middleton finished with 16 points,…
Kyle Walker was involved in a heated exchange with AC Milan teammate Joao Felix during another frustrating night at the office for his loan club. Trailing 2-0 at half-time against Napoli on Sunday, Walker was spotted giving the Chelsea flop a dressing down over his unwillingness to pass the ball. As the Milan players made their way out from the dressing room for the second period, the England international was heard telling Felix: ‘Pass the ball, we are not Messi.’ Walker’s advice seemingly fell on deaf ears, with Felix hooked off just 10 minutes into the second half as under-pressure…
