SI’s @JedKatz_ thinks Jabari Smith Jr. can help take the Rockets to “new heights” next season “He will grow into a much more impactful player next to Durant, taking Houston to new heights with the right pieces around that frontcourt.”

Why are the Knicks blitzing Harden so hard? It's just opening up the floor for everyone. He's got 7 points. I get he turns the ball over a ton but this is easy for him right now passing over the blitz.

Mitchell Robinson has 9 minutes logged and 1 personal foul. No excuse for the Knicks to not play him now and stop the Cavs’ offense.

Assessing the Warriors' Biggest Needs at the 2026 NBA Draft What could be Golden State’s most pivotal offseason in franchise history starts with the NBA Draft. The Warriors have two glaring needs right now: si.com/nba/draft/news…

Rockets NBA Draft Update: Second-Round Prospects Amid the Combine Houston has a few players to consider with its two second-round picks. Latest draft update for @HOURocketsSI lists two prospects with combine measurements: si.com/nba/rockets/on…

The Denver Nuggets can fill a major need with the 26th pick in the 2026 NBA Draft. That need, plus potential prospects to consider for @DraftDigest: si.com/nba/draft/news…

The Nets traded three first-round picks and one first-round swap to regain control over their 2025 and 2026 first-round picks so they could tank. They move down a combined five slots in those two lotteries. Absolutely brutal.

Pray for Brooklyn.

Honestly Dyson Daniels just got put out of his misery. Knicks were having a field day on that man.

The Magic are one win away from becoming the seventh No. 8 seed in NBA history to upset a No. 1 seed, now up 3-1 on the Pistons. 12 days ago everyone wrote Orlando off after their Play-In loss to the 76ers. Now they’re on the verge of history going back to Detroit.

Game 4 was an impressive win for the Rockets, but history says their season will end within the coming days. Entering the offseason, is another big trade in the cards for Houston? They made a win-now move for Kevin Durant, but is another on the horizon? si.com/nba/rockets/on…

ESPN gave the Rockets a 96.6% win probability after going up 101-95 with possession, less than 30 seconds left in the 4th. The Lakers, despite tying their lowest scoring half all season at 38 (vs. OKC, 11/12) still won in OT. LeBron James (29 PTS, 13 REB, 6 AST) puts LA up 3-0.

On CJ McCollum’s game-winner the Knicks rolled out Shamet, McBride, Bridges, OG and Hart. 3 things wrong with this: 6’1” McBride is guarding CJ, nobody is home to grab a board (Hawks had 13 oReb), and two of those guys sat almost all of the 4th. You can play both KAT and Mitch.
