The Los Angeles Lakers didn’t make a move at the trade deadline, a decision that might’ve caused some frustration for LeBron James. James turned heads on social media when he posted an hourglass emoji, which some took as time’s running out for the Lakers. However, James hasn’t publicly indicated he plans to leave and is actually focused on returning to Los Angeles for next season according to reports. However, the front office did manage to add to the roster when they signed Spencer Dinwiddie in the buyout market. Dinwiddie was surprisingly waived by the Toronto Raptors after he was traded…

After Sunday night’s NBA All-Star game where the final score was a whopping 211-186, the conversation about the lack of competitiveness and intensity of the tradition are once again amplified. This prompted Los Angeles Lakers stars LeBron James and Anthony Davis to talk about the game itself and what the solution might be to bring the contest back to being something worthwhile to play for. James said a “deeper conversation” needs to happen about the ASG It was James’ 20th All-Star game appearance, the most out of anybody in the history of the NBA, but admitted that the “competitive nature”…

Evolving sports science and recovery technologies have allowed athletes to perform at a high level into their late 30s and some cases — see Tom Brady and Jaromir Jagr — mid-40s. Three of the NBA’s most celebrated stars, LeBron James, 39, Kevin Durant, 35, and Stephen Curry, 35, are all getting up in age, but there are no discernible signs of any of them slowing down anytime soon. Durant — who entered the league in 2007 — suffered an Achilles injury in 2019 that many felt could have prematurely ended his career or stripped him of his otherworldly skills. However,…

LeBron James could “possibly” miss the Los Angeles Lakers‘ first game after the All-Star break against the Golden State Warriors. LeBron is set to undergo treatment on his left ankle. Before the All-Star Game, LeBron talked about his left ankle injury. The 39-year-old played only 14 minutes in the All-Star Game, finishing with eight points, four rebounds and three assists. “Trying to get my ankle as strong and as back to where I feel confident that I can finish off this last third of the season,” LeBron said. “I won’t be playing the entire game tonight, for sure. I can…

LeBron James’ potential free agency will wind up being one of the most covered storylines of the 2024 offseason. With a $51 million player option on his contract, James has the opportunity to either stay or leave the Lakers, with the correct financial decision likely being staying in Los Angeles. Given his age, it’s unlikely he’ll receive a contract larger than that from another team, especially with the league’s new Collective Bargaining Agreement. Staying with the Lakers, however, enables him to continue building the life he has in L.A., watch his son Bryce finish up his high school career and…

In his 21st NBA season, LeBron James has continued to lead the Los Angeles Lakers and prove he is still one of the best players in the NBA today. LeBron has averaged 24.8 points, 7.2 rebounds and 7.8 assists, which is simply unheard of for someone at this stage of their career. But even with his amazing level of play, there is only so much longer James will be able to play which now brings the question of how does he want his final year to play out, whenever that comes. While Kobe Bryant had a farewell tour in his…

Only one member of the current Los Angeles Lakers can say they were a teammate of the legendary Kobe Bryant. D’Angelo Russell was drafted second overall by the Lakers in 2015 with his rookie season being Kobe’s final one in the league. Russell has a connection to Kobe that no one else on the team does having shared a locker room with him, so it truly meant a lot for Russell to see the Bryant statue unveiled last week. Unfortunately, Russell couldn’t play in the game that night due to knee soreness and the Lakers were unable to beat the…

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren got some serious credit from an unexpected source recently: The Baltimore Ravens. In an episode of his Punch Line Podcast last week, Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey had his secondary-mate, safety Kyle Hamilton on as a guest, and the discussion turned to fits for potential NFL free agents this offseason. When Humphrey asked about a fit for Tennessee Titans All-Pro Derrick Henry, Hamilton asked who had hired former Titans offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, he ruled out Pittsburgh because the Steelers already have a loaded backfield. “They already have two good backs,” Hamilton said. “Jaylen Warren,…

The Pittsburgh Steelers might want a quarterback room of Kenny Pickett and Mason Rudolph, but since Rudolph is set to hit free agency, that is no guarantee. If they do not sign him, the obvious pivot would be Ryan Tannehill, who is set to hit free agency as well, and has connections to new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. But what would a Tannehill contract look like, and how much would it cost the Steelers? Brad Spielberger of Pro Football Focus has proven quite accurate at contract projections over the years. His idea for what a Tannehill contract would look like…
