Malik Beasley is the exact risk the Wizards should take

Entering the offseason, Beasley was expected to cash in on the open market after putting together a career-year in Detroit. The sharpshooting guard was one of the top candidates to win the Sixth Man of the Year award and was a huge reason for the Pistons' impressive regular season. Beasley averaged 16.3 points, while shooting 43% from field goal range and an extremely efficient 41.6% from beyond the arc.

'They're done building around him': Inside the tumultuous Kawhi Leonard era in Los Angeles

ON AUG. 18, 2014, Steve Ballmer shouted, chest-bumped and high-fived his way through a frenzied crowd of 4,500 fans inside Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles. Eminem's "Lose Yourself" thumped overhead. The former Microsoft CEO had just paid a then-record $2 billion for the LA Clippers, at once rescuing the team, the city of Los Angeles and the NBA from one of its darkest eras.

Heat may finally grant Davion Mitchell his longtime NBA wish

Assuming that the Heat will want to stagger Norman Powell and Tyler Herro, probably bringing the former off the bench, that will naturally open up a spot for Mitchell to emerge as the starting point guard. If he shows enough in training camp and pre-season, it's going to be difficult for Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra not to give Mitchell a fair shake to be the full-time starter next to Herro this season.

Nets acquire Kobe Bufkin from Hawks, sign David Muoka: report

Bufkin, the 15th pick in the 2023 draft out of Michigan, has seen his first two seasons derailed by injuries - a fractured thumb, a sprained toe and recurring shoulder trouble. The 6-4, 195-pound guard played only 27 games for Atlanta, averaging 5.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists while shooting 38.3% from the field, 21.1% from 3-point range and 72.2% at the free throw line.

The WNBA Superstar Who Left the Game in Her Prime

When I interviewed her two weeks ago, ahead of her induction into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, Moore ruminated over a different "what if"—one that she had never considered and that occurred to her mid-thought, as she was reflecting on her brilliant career. Would Moore still be playing if she'd been able to make more money in the WNBA?

Raptors could surprisingly reunite with championship piece after recent move

McCaw might be one of the oddest NBA players to record a three-peat, being part of the Golden State Warriors' championship squads in 2017 and 2018, and striking gold once again in 2019 as a late addition to the Toronto Raptors after a failed stint with the Cleveland Cavaliers that same year. The ex-UNLV product was not a standout contributor to the Raptors' title campaign, but he was okay in limited minutes, averaging 44% field goal shooting

Valkyries guard Veronica Burton wins WNBA most improved award

Opportunity is a big thing, and it's a big factor in this league and I've been grateful to have an opportunity to play and compete, Burton told the Bay Area News Group earlier this season. I've had a coaching staff and teammates that instill a lot of confidence in me, and that goes a long way in terms of success on court, and so just a lot of work and repetition. But also just opportunity and trust as well.

Wizards hold the key to unlocking Cam Whitmore's true potential

The Washington Wizards future rides on the development of the team's young core. Washington has taken several swings on potential over the last few years and up to this point, none of those swings have resulted in the team finding the cornerstone player they've been looking for. At least, not yet. However, Washington has yet to let discouraging results limit their rebuilding strategy and with general manager Will Dawkins continuously looking for ways to improve the roster.

Heat have painfully obvious blueprint for Nikola Jovic extension decision

Jovic finds himself in a similar situation to Moody last summer. The hope was that Moody was going to take another leap in his individual game, and the Warriors believed so much in that, they wanted to lock him up before forcing him into a contract season. That's exactly what they managed to do with the team-friendly extension. The Heat should feel the same about Jovic.
