Bulls Guard Making Progress In Rehab!

By on

        January 14th, 2022 was the last time we saw Lonzo Ball play an NBA game. Ball suffered a knee injury that kept him sidelined for the rest of the 2021-22 season and the entire 2022-23 season. Lonzo Ball has had three surgeries on his knee but it's odd to see that he had still been experiencing pain. Before Ball went down the Chicago Bulls were looking like a championship contending team but since his absence the Bulls look horrible. Some recent and positive news has come to light in regard of Lonzo Ball and his knee. 



        Chicago Bulls head coach Billy Donovan announced that Lonzo Ball is no longer experiencing pain on his injured knee. The next plan for Ball and his rehab is to start running again in January. It is still looking like Lonzo Ball will miss the entire 2023-24 season. It has been months since there have been any updates in regard of Lonzo Ball but it is great to hear he will soon begin the next step in his rehab process. 



        The Chicago Bulls have been awful since Lonzo Ball's injury. The Bulls are currently 14-19, the tenth seed in the Eastern Conference. There is a lot of questions with where the Bulls go moving forward with DeMar DeRozan on the last year of his deal, Zach LaVine in trade rumors and just not being able to compete in the Eastern Conference. The Bulls may look a whole lot different by the time Lonzo Ball is ready to return. Lonzo Ball has one more year left on his deal, which is a player-option that he will likely opt into.

          Kelly Oubre Jr. has been quite the journeyman in the NBA. In 2015, he was drafted by the Washington Wizards then after a few seasons would get traded to the Phoenix Suns. After a short stint in Phoenix, Oubre signed a one-year deal with the Golden State Warriors. Following a brief year in the Bay Area, he would spend a couple seasons with the Charlotte Hornets where he would have some of his best games. This season, Oubre finished a one-year deal with the Philadelphia 76ers and will hit the free agency market again this summer.            For a player on a veteran minimum, Oubre was a significant impactful player this season. He averaged 15 points and 5 rebounds per game. His defense was nothing less than amazing and his athleticism played to his strength this year. Oubre will have multiple suitors this summer from championship-contending teams.            The Philadelphia 76ers...

          It is officially the end of an era for the Toronto Raptors. Pascal Siakam has been mentioned in trade rumors for most of the season.

It has been announced that Pascal Siakam has been traded to the Indiana Pacers.            Pascal Siakam was drafted by the Toronto Raptors in 2016 with the twenty-seventh overall pick. He was a huge piece in helping the Raptors win their first ever NBA championship in 2019 against the Golden State Warriors. After winning a championship he was named an NBA All-Star in 2020 and again in 2023. Siakam has also made All-NBA twice, All-NBA Second Team in 2020 and then All-NBA Third Team in 2022.

Knicks Big Man Search

By on

          The New York Knicks are coming off their first 50-win season in over a decade but after losing Isaiah Hartenstein in free agency they need to look for another big. They only have two centers on the roster, Mitchell Robinson and Jericho Sims. Having Robinson go back into the starting lineup isn't much of an issue, besides some health concerns, but Sims as the backup is still a question. He has yet to be a consistent rotation player in his young career. Matter of fact, in his three seasons in the league he has only played in over 50 games once.            There aren't any free-agent centers that can be seen as reliable backups for the Knicks. The team still has seven of their own first-round picks that they could trade to find the big man they need. According to an X account, "BigKnicksEnergy," a league source reported that the Knicks are interested in Charlotte Hornets center Nick Richards and are willing to move ...
