With Conference Tournaments coming to a close, and fans getting ready to fill out their March Madness brackets, we re-examine the upcoming NBA Draft’s top 100 prospects. There was not a lot of movement at the top. Texas Tech star, Jarrett Culver, moved ahead of Duke Freshman, Cam Reddish. Keldon Johnson slipped two spots, and Romeo Langford slipped four spots. Most notably, Coby White has rocketed up eight spots to #13. His teammate, Cameron Johnson, has made an intriguing case as a late 1st round picks and Matisse Thybulle has made a similar leap. As we get closer to the…

With the NBA trade deadline having come and gone, it’s time to check back in with all of the 2019 NBA Draft prospects! While Zion Williamson remains atop this year’s draft class, Ja Morant continues to rise up the board, moving up two more spots since our last Big Board. The most noticeable drop has to be Kevin Porter, Jr., having not played due to injury and disciplinary suspension. Also of note, Jaxson Hayes continues to rise as well, moving up six spots due to his stellar play as of late. One more re-positioning of note has to be Grant…

The New York Knicks shocked the NBA world Thursday afternoon, by trading Kristaps Porzingis, Tim Hardaway, Jr., Courtney Lee, and Trey Burke to the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for Dennis Smith, Jr., Wes Matthews, DeAndre Jordan, a 2021 1st round pick (unprotected), and a 2023 1st round pick (1-10 protected).

NBA trade season is upon us, as almost all of this summer’s free agent signings are now on the table, and it truly is the most wonderful time of the year! This trade season was kicked off with a deal that sent Trevor Ariza from Phoenix to Washington in exchange for Austin Rivers and Kelly Oubre, Jr. Apologies to Oubre, who would have seen himself in Memphis, if not for that pesky other Brooks. GMing is hard, y’all; especially in Phoenix. Now that the first domino has fallen, expect a bevy of moves, especially as we get closer to…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”11513″ img_size=”1000×500″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Sony, oft maligned for its mishandling of the Spider-Man property, namely Spider-Man 3 and The Amazing Spider-Man 2, seems to have flipped the script on their most marketable property. It began with a partnership with Disney back in 2016, to bring audiences a new live action Spider-Man, fully immersed in Kevin Feige’s brainchild, the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This, once again, got fans really excited about Spider-Man, and brought forth something as little as three years ago, many fans thought was an impossibility; my self included; Spider-Man spinning his webs alongside many of our favorite Marvel legends!
