We keep waiting for the post-Kevin Durant Oklahoma City Thunder to become true contenders, but their hopes of a title are, if anything, dwindling by the year. And after a season which once promised so much, they find themselves on the brink of a third consecutive first round playoff exit. So, is this who OKC are?
The Boston Celtics are the first team in the NBA Playoffs to advance to the second round following their four-game
Clint N’Dumba Capela was born in Geneva, Switzerland. Capela’s parents are from Angola and Congo. Capela had a passion for soccer during his childhood. But, he was 6 feet 3 inches when he was 13-years-old, so his brother suggested for him to play basketball. He went to INSEP in Paris, France for high school.
The Los Angeles Lakers were expected to do big things after acquiring LeBron James in free agency at the beginning of the season, but an unexpected groin injury knocked him out for 18 games and changed the course of the Lakers season. After the tumultuous turn of events that knocked the Lakers out of the playoffs, Magic Johnson decided it was best for him and the organization if he stepped down from being president of basketball operations. Magic Johnson helped the Lakers get LeBron James and he was set to pitch the plan to recruit free agents like Kawhi Leonard, Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant, and Klay Thompson to try and get them on the Lakers, but the pressure was too much. Magic always seemed to be tampering and getting fined for it and it got to the point where he couldn’t even congratulate a player on his accomplishment, which led to Magic getting frustrated.
Earlier this month, Los Angeles Lakers legend and President Magic Johnson abruptly stepped down as President of Basketball Operations. Since then, the Lakers have been interviewing coaching candidates to replace the recently fired Luke Walton.
The Boston Celtics have nearly clinched their spot in the second round of the Eastern Conference Playoffs with their 104-96
Steven Adams was born in Rotorua, New Zeland. Adams is the youngest of 18 children. Yes, he has 17 siblings. Adams had a rough childhood, due to the way his father treated him. In Adams’ family, the average males “clan” stand was about 6’10”, Adams grew to be 7’0″, just above the average height of his brothers.
Going from being a bench warmer for the Rockets, to being one of the most important players for the Clippers.
Montrezl Dashay Harrell was born in Tarboro, North Carolina. He attended North Edgecombe High School, where he was the star player. After high school, he was prepping for a year at Hargrave Military Academy in Chatham, Virginia. He led that team to a 38-1 record, averaging 25.2 points and 13.6 rebounds per game.
It is no secret that the Houston Rockets are a statistical juggernaut when they have the ball. Their last three seasons are each among the top 15 in all-time offensive rating, while James Harden’s scoring numbers this campaign can only be bettered by Michael Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain, not exactly bad company. And despite being matched up against the Western Conference’s best defense in the first round of the playoffs, the Rockets are yet to show any signs of slowing down, as they have the second-best offense in the playoffs after the opening two games.
Arguably the best player in the 2017 draft, but how did he get there?
C.J. McCollum is one of the best shooting guards in the NBA. But how did he get there?
The playoffs are only just underway, but after a wild opening weekend, a few interesting statistics have emerged. With each team having played their first game of the postseason, what can be learned, or ignored, by the numbers from the eight exciting game ones?

Welcome to the Kingdom 🔥
🚨 JUSTIN FIELDS IS A CHIEF! ✒️
I Love this for the KINGDOM!! LET'S Go!!!
#Chiefskingdom #Chiefs #NFL
🚨 BREAKING: Justin Fields is a KANSAS CITY CHIEF! #Chiefs
The "Architect" does it again! Brett Veach has finalized a trade with the Jets to bring QB Justin Fields to the Kingdom.
💰 KC only pays $3M of Fields' $10M guarantee (Jets cover the rest!) and gives up just a 2027
The #Titans have released CB L'Jarius Sneed, which saves the team $11.4M in cap space. That means he's a Free Agent, and the #Chiefs need a starting cornerback.
Should KC bring him back for another SB Run? @TalkPrimeTime @ChiefsInsider @HenseToddJR3
