Houston Looking To Give Alperen Sengun More Minutes

Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun could see more work this season, according to ESPN NBA insider Tim MacMahon.

Joaquin Niemann A Strong Option This Week

Shane Lowry Looks To Contend At The Country Club

Shane Lowry has put together an impressive season so far this year. Although he has not won yet this year, he has recorded three top-five place finishes.

Arizona has […]

Philly Expected To Exercise Option On Shake Milton

Philadelphia 76ers guard Shake Milton is expected to have his $2 million team option exercised. The 25-year-old averaged just 8.2 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 2.5 assists in 2021-22. However, throughout six starts last season, he averaged 16.0 points. Nonetheless, while Milton probably won't see much interest during drafts ahead of the 2022 campaign, he'll likely […]
