After Friday’s Rising Stars showcase and the always-entertaining NBA All-Star Saturday night (including the skills, three-point, and dunk competitions), the All-Star Game (ASG) everyone’s been waiting for tips off on Sunday.

Four years removed from the 2019 Championship, the Toronto Raptors find themselves in the bottom five of the Eastern Conference, and rumors are swirling ahead of tomorrow’s 3 p.m. ET NBA trade deadline.

The King is officially the NBA’s all-time leading scorer thanks to this bucket and his 38 points in last night’s LA Lakers 133–130 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder.

There’s already been one major move ahead of Thursday’s fast approaching NBA trade deadline, with a few more names to watch as the clock ticks down.

The free agents of the WNBA woke up and chose glorious chaos on Wednesday, ringing in free agency with two new superteams and a whole lot of drama.

WNBA free agents can officially ink deals starting on Wednesday, but one squad already hit the jackpot — two-time MVP Candace Parker announced on Saturday that she plans to sign with the Las Vegas Aces.

A story bigger than ball took center stage after Las Vegas Aces fan-favorite Dearica Hamby was traded to the LA Sparks, then shared claims that the Aces discriminated against her for being pregnant.

Free agency is barely underway, but there’ve already been a couple of league-altering moves and one GOAT officially hanging ’em up after a legendary career.

Queue up Pitbull because it’s time for some “International Love”...and basketball. That’s right, the NBA is returning to Paris for an exciting regular-season game between the Detroit Pistons and the Chicago Bulls on January 19th. Oui oui indeed.
