Russell Westbrook shouldn't be the Sixth Man of the Year favorite, but he creates betting value on the award

Westbrook actually averaged more potential assists per game last season (13.8) than he is this season (12.9), yet he's averaging more assists this season (7.5 vs. 7.1) because his teammates are making more of the shots he creates. If you trust the voters to pick the best bench player this season to win this award, it's going to be Brogdon.

Tom Thibodeau lauds ‘truly remarkable’ LeBron James as he nears NBA scoring mark

Tom Thibodeau has coached LeBron James with Team USA and against him as a head coach or an assistant throughout the four-time MVP’s NBA career. As James moves closer to eclipsing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s all-time league scoring mark — 116 points away entering Tuesday’s visit by the Lakers to the Garden — the Knicks head coach marveled at the soon-to-be 19-time All-Star’s ability to maintain his “truly amazing” level of play over 20 NBA seasons.

NBA trade deadline: 3 new rumors for OG Anunoby, Jae Crowder, and Jakob Poeltl

One of the most significant events of the NBA season is less than two weeks away, and some teams are looking to make moves. The Suns have Mikal Bridges, and he is a similar player to Anunoby, but I dont think they would have a problem moving Cameron Johnson to a sixth-man role and playing Anunoby at power forward.

CJ McCollum’s Steady Presence Amid ‘Choppy’ Pelicans Season

Jacobi James McCollum (age 1) at last accepts the coaching, freeing Dad to resume his reflections on leadership, team building, winemaking, union leading and fatherhood—and the immense challenge of doing it all simultaneously while also navigating a new team, a new city and new expectations after his trade from Portland to New Orleans last February. But I think I’ve displayed the fact that I can lead in different ways.”
