Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo (quad) admitted that he was not fully healthy before the league went on hiatus.

Phoenix Suns center Frank Kaminsky (knee) has been cleared for basketball activities. "I'm ready to make a push towards playing again," Kaminsky said.

However, it's unlikely that […]

Grant Williams Continues Improving His Game

Boston Celtics forward Grant Williams says that he has been working on his ball-handling in Charlotte.

Paul Millsap Will Work Out At Home

Denver Nuggets forward Paul Millsap says that he is not going to use the team's practice facility to work out. Millsap has his own basketball court in his basement, so he doesn't feel it's necessary for him to use the team facility. "I felt like it was beneficial for me to stay at home and […]

Devonta Freeman Willing To Sit Out In 2020

Free-agent running back Devonta Freeman thinks he's worth more than the one-year deal worth up to $4 million that he rejected from the Seahawks this week, and he insists he's willing to skip the 2020 season if his contract demands aren't met on the open market. Carlos Hyde took the deal instead in Seattle, which […]

Russell Wilson Pining For Antonio Brown?

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson would love for the team to add wide receiver Antonio Brown, according to sources. Brown is also close with backup quarterback Geno Smith.

Chris Carson Still Seattle's Primary Back

The Seattle Seahawks still plan on using running back Chris Carson as their primary back in 2020 despite signing Carlos Hyde on Friday.

The LG Twins, or comeback kids as I'm calling them, gave us a sweet, sweet capped off a 3-0 sweep on Friday. What a wonderful way to open up Memorial Day weekend. Lotte, like clockwork took the lead in the sixth inning, and while the total had already went over, it's always reassuring to not […]

Scooter Gennett Content To Sit Out 2020 Season

Free-agent second baseman Scooter Gennett said that he's fine with sitting out the 2020 season. Gennett hasn't gotten what he considers a fair offer for his services on the open market this year.

Jets Don't Plan On Trading Jamal Adams

The New York Jets don't intend on trading safety Jamal Adams despite the latest impasse in contract negotiations, according to a source.

Smith-Schuster had an extremely […]

Texans Feel Good About Will Fuller V

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller V has struggled to stay healthy during his NFL career, but head coach Bill O'Brien says that "Fuller is doing great" after dealing with hamstring and groin issues last season.

Jeff Thomas Has A Chance To Make Patriots Roster

New England Patriots wide receiver Jeff Thomas has the best chance among the four undrafted receivers to make the team's roster.
