Buffalo Sabres fans have spoken, and the verdict is not good for owner Terry Pegula. In a recent survey conducted by The Athletic, Pegula was ranked dead last among all 32 NHL owners. Fans graded him poorly in nearly every category, including willingness to spend, franchise stability, and fan engagement. This ranking reflects growing frustration with the Sabres’ 14-year playoff drought, which has made Buffalo one of the NHL’s most disappointed and restless fan bases. While Pegula once promised to spare no expense in building a competitive team, many fans now believe the opposite. Even the recent arena improvements, such…

The Golden State Warriors had their seven-game winning streak snapped in disappointing fashion, falling 114-105 to a shorthanded Denver Nuggets team in San Francisco. Despite missing key players Nikola Jokić, Jamal Murray, and Christian Braun, Denver dominated the game behind Aaron Gordon’s season-high 38 points. Warriors coach Steve Kerr did not hold back in his postgame assessment. “We played poorly out of the gate and never found rhythm. They played great—the right team won. We didn’t deserve it. We were awful,” Kerr said bluntly. The loss marked just the second in 14 games for Golden State, who have surged in…

Dallas Mavericks forward Anthony Davis is taking a significant step toward his return from a left adductor strain by working out with the Texas Legends, the Mavericks’ G League affiliate. This assignment will allow Davis to participate in full five-on-five practice, something he hasn’t been able to do with the injury-riddled Mavericks. Since being acquired in a blockbuster trade that sent Luka Dončić to the Los Angeles Lakers six weeks ago, Davis has played just one game for Dallas. That game, on Feb. 8, saw Davis put up 16 points, seven assists, and three blocks in a 116-105 victory over…

Over his five-year career in San Francisco, he appeared in 73 games and started seven, including three last season. Known for his durability and reliability, he has played in 17 games twice…

The Los Angeles Lakers are reportedly exploring a potential trade for Denver Nuggets sharpshooter Michael Porter Jr. in a bid to strengthen their outside shooting. However, acquiring him would come at a steep price—possibly sending Austin Reaves to Colorado. With Luka Dončić and LeBron James leading the offense, the Lakers remain inconsistent from beyond the arc, shooting just 35.7% from three-point range under head coach JJ Redick. Despite their strong push for the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference, their recent three-game losing streak highlights their perimeter struggles. Michael Porter Jr: The Missing Piece for LA? Porter Jr., one…

The Cleveland Cavaliers’ impressive 16-game winning streak came to a dramatic halt as the Orlando Magic pulled off a thrilling comeback, securing a 108-103 victory on the road. Despite trailing by 13 points at halftime, Orlando rallied behind standout performances from Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner. Banchero led the charge with 24 points, 11 rebounds, and seven assists, while Wagner added 22 points and eight rebounds. The Magic’s dominant 35-23 third-quarter performance turned the tide, setting the stage for a gritty fourth-quarter battle. Cleveland, already locked into the postseason, looked in control when Donovan Mitchell’s layup extended their lead to…

Instead, he hopes to keep them within his family for generations to come.

His answer was a firm “No.” “I could pass it on. But I could never walk away,” Dolan stated.…

Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant made NBA history on Friday night despite his team’s 133-124 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Morant put on an electrifying performance, scoring 44 points while adding 8 rebounds, 7 assists, and 1 steal. His efficient shooting—17-of-22 from the field and 9-of-10 from the free-throw line—highlighted his dominance. According to Stathead, Morant became the first player in NBA history to record those numbers in a single game, further cementing his reputation as one of the league’s most explosive guards. Grizzlies Fall Short Against Red-Hot Cavaliers The Cavaliers, who have now won 16 straight games and 20…

The San Antonio Spurs’ tough season has taken another unfortunate turn. Star point guard De’Aaron Fox has been ruled out for the remainder of the NBA season due to a finger injury that requires surgery. The procedure will repair an extensor tendon in his left fifth finger, and while the team expects a full recovery, Fox won’t return to action until the 2025-26 season. Another Major Setback for the Spurs Fox’s injury is just the latest in a series of major blows for the Spurs. Last month, rising star Victor Wembanyama was also shut down for the season after being…

Stephen Curry has once again cemented his legacy as the greatest shooter in NBA history. On Thursday night, during the Golden State Warriors’ dominant 130-104 victory over the Sacramento Kings, Curry became the first player to make 4,000 career three-pointers. The historic shot came in the third quarter, with Curry executing a signature pump fake, dribble, and smooth release.

Reflecting on the milestone, Curry said, “It was a special moment to feel that energy and allow them to enjoy…
