The Lakers had a rarity on Tuesday, not just blowing a team out as they did the Nets but doing it on the first night of a back-to-back. The win gave the Lakers the luxury of sitting LeBron James and Anthony Davis for effectively the entire fourth quarter. The result could be very beneficial for the Lakers. With a game in Washington to wrap up the road trip on Wednesday, head coach Darvin Ham postgame said the early prognosis is that both could be available for that game. “We’ll see how they feel when they wake up in the morning,”…

Such is the case with Eric Johnson, the mayor of Dallas who is hoping for a second NFL franchise to come to the city alongside the Cowboys. After news broke on Tuesday night that voters in Jackson County, Mo., rejected a sales tax measure that would’ve renovated Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Kansas City Chiefs, Johnson took to social media to show his interest. “Welcome home, Dallas Texans!” Johnson wrote on X, along with a smiley emoji and the hashtag #CottonBowl, the popular venue in Dallas. Then on Wednesday morning in a statement to the Dallas Morning News, Johnson said:…

The Steelers trading for Justin Fields has been one of the biggest shocks this offseason. Omar Khan didn’t hesitate to do everything he could to improve the quarterback room, and it’s been apparent since he took over for Kevin Colbert that he’ll be aggressive if he has to. He’s also willing to wait and take the absolute best deal possible, as the Chicago Bears have to know all too well at this point. One of Khan’s first moves that truly showed how different he was going to be from Colbert was trading Chase Claypool for a second-round pick during the…

Glasgow Rangers have possibly their biggest match of the season so far to come this weekend as they welcome their fierce rivals to Ibrox on Sunday. The Light Blues are currently second in the Scottish Premiership and one point behind their upcoming opponents, who have played one game more than Philippe Clement’s side, ahead of this match. This means that a place at the top of the table is up for grabs for the winner, as they both fight it out to secure the title before the end of the season. Clement’s men still have the league and the SFA Cup to fight for, having…

The Los Angeles Lakers have tapped into something over the last couple of months, going from under .500 at the beginning of February to ten games over .500 now after winning seven of the past eight games. Despite the recent upswing, LA is still seeded 9th and will likely find themselves in the play-in tournament once again, but one analyst is calling out one of the team’s best players for not pulling his own weight lately. Keyshawn Johnson said on “Undisputed” today that shooting guard Austin Reaves needs to “be more consistent” and added that “he hasn’t played well since…

Recently, the NBA rumor mill has been heating up as it pertains to Atlanta Hawks star point guard Trae Young, who has been out of the lineup since late February after undergoing surgery on his finger. Since then, the Hawks have strangely made up a bit of ground in the vaunted Eastern Conference playoff picture, leading some to wonder if the team might opt to look for potential Young trade suitors this offseason. Naturally, one team that always inserts itself into the discussion when a big name is on the market are the Los Angeles Lakers, and it didn’t take…
