News from around the NBA 2025-2026

Ayton is not their problem. He has looked pretty good for a center making $8 million a year. LeBron is the problem from what I've seen.

Plus Luka not staying healthy. The contract of James is hurting the most. The Lakers need more depth, but they don't have the room to do it. I don't fear them now, as much as I will when James retires.

Antetokounmpo nets 29 in return, closes with windmill dunk

Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 29 points in his return from an eight-game absence Saturday night, punctuating the Milwaukee Bucks' 112-103 victory over the Chicago Bulls at United Center with a windmill dunk at the buzzer that drew the ire of the home team.

Austin Reaves reportedly being out for the next month or so doesn't help.

The Thunder and Spurs have a shot to win the lottery or move into the top-3 based on having another team’s pick. Not that they weren’t going to run the west anyway…

You tell them how it is with the Lakers, Eddie.

This is very perplexing if true... that the Hawks want to trade #1 overall pick Zaccharie Risacher.

And they have interest in Anthony Davis?

Another report from the same source, the Hawks may be interested in Anthony Davis.

Kawhi with a double nickel. Clipps 4th straight win.

5 points and 5 assists?

5 points and 5 assists?

That would be only 10 cents.

BTW, I don't know what a double nickle is either.

Here are Leonard's game stats.

Seeing the stats, I believe he's referring to the 55 points.

That's my guess as well. I'm not a fan of using initials or cute terminology used in the media these days for describing things.

Rissacher was a reach but the draft that year was weak. AD in Quin Snyder's defense could make for a resurgence of sorts for AD. Snyder got the most out of Gobert back in Utah and Atlanta has Porzingis and Okongwu so Davis could play PF. They also have good defenders in Dyson Daniels, Jalen Johnson, and Nickeil Alexander-Walker. I guess it depends on what it costs. Getting out of Dallas can only help Davis. He'll never be Luka

When the Suns played the Hawks, Risacher stood out to be as a nice young player who is only 20.

It's baffling to me, how in the world would they consider trading him for an aging, often injured star in Anthony Davis.

Also, from what I read, it seemed to imply, the Hawks would have to attach additional assets.

From my perspective, this is a non-starter and potentially as bad as all the assets the Suns traded for Durant.
