The NBA draft is one of the most hyped-up offseason events. It creates lives for young players and builds futures for organizations. After the draft, some players end up playing at a high level right away.
Many experts and casual fans alike predicted that the draft addition of LaMelo Ball would raise an otherwise weak roster to about a play-in spot. However, through 55 games, the Hornets could be so much better.
The NBA Most Improved Player Award goes to the standout who has the best comeback season. Whether returning from a year-long injury, or demonstrating a significant leap of production from the prior year, most winners of the award are younger players.
The Miami Heat are losing games and their star player is unhappy. After calling the team’s effort “soft”, Butler turned his focus into his running mate Bam Adebayo.
With a month left in the NBA regular season, it’s time to take a look at the Top 5 MVP candidates and a few honorable mentions who could garner some votes.
As we near the conclusion of the NBA regular season, award races across the league are heating up. That is evident when taking a look at the NBA Coach of the Year candidates, as a number of coaches have an argument to be made that they deserve the award.

Denver was attempting their comeback with under a minute to go in a game against the Golden State Warriors on Monday night. Jamal Murray was driving in for a layup, and before he could go up for the finish, he came crashing to the ground in a heap. MRI later confirmed the ultimate fear, Murray has a fully torn left ACL.
The Miami Heat will begin their four-game road trip on Sunday against the Portland Trailblazers. They will be without their starting guard Victor Oladipo, who’s sidelined with a right knee injury. With Oladipo sidelined, it opens up minutes for Kendrick Nunn.
The Los Angeles Lakers have been without LeBron James and Anthony Davis for the past 11 games. Over that span, they are 5-6 and have dropped to fifth in the Western Conference. With the playoffs approaching, the Lakers need to get healthy if they want to repeat as NBA Champions.
Two Celtics players were already expected to make a jump this season and have exceeded those expectations.
The current NBA season is now one hundred days old. It is actually 106 for those who are counting, but there were no games on Dec 24 and there were five days of zero games during the All-Star Break. Let’s call it a hundred ‘gamedays’ from the first day of the season up to April 6.
