Los Angeles Lakers center Dwight Howard did not play at all during Sunday's Game 2 matchup versus the Houston Rockets.

Los Angeles Clippers center Montrezl Harrell wins the Sixth Man of the Year award for the 2019-2020 season. He snaps teammate Lou Williams two-year run, but at least the award stays on the team.

Tyler Herro Should Be Fine For Sunday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (hip) is listed as probable for Sunday's Game 4 against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Spurs Attempted To Trade LaMarcus Aldridge

San Antonio Spurs center LaMarcus Aldridge was reportedly being shopped around during the February deadline. The 35-year-old center has one year left on his deal worth $24 million for next season.

DeMar DeRozan Expected To Pick Up Player Option

San Antonio Spurs forward DeMar DeRozan is expected to pick up his player option for the 2020-2021 season.

Ja Morant Wins Rookie Of The Year

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant has been named the 2019-2020 Rookie of the Year. There wasn't a whole lot of competition for this award since Zion Williamson was limited during most of the regular season. Morant averaged 18.1 points, 7.3 assists, 3.9 rebounds, 0.9 triples during his first campaign. He needs to improve his accuracy […]

Rajon Rondo Probable For Friday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Rajon Rondo (back) is listed as probable for Friday's Game 1 matchup against the Houston Rockets.
