Nicholas Buchanan+FollowDeandre Ayton Makes Lakers History: Perfect 14–12 Double-Double, 0 TurnoversLast night vs the 76ers, Deandre Ayton turned in a spotless line: 14 PTS, 12 REB on 7-for-7 FG with 0 turnovers in 31 minutes — and the Lakers got the 112–108 win. Per one roundup, Ayton is the first Lakers starter ever to post a double-double with no misses and no turnovers — wild considering the franchise’s lineage of walking double-doubles (Wilt, Kareem, Shaq). Early days, but Ayton’s been exactly what L.A. hoped for: efficient touches, glass work, and clean decision-making that fits alongside their creators. #NBA #Lakers #DeandreAyton #LakeShow #Efficiency #PerfectGame #DoubleDouble10Share
Shawn Martin+FollowDespite the Loss to the Pacers, Westbrook Drops a 24–13–14 Triple-DoubleThe Kings fell 116–105 to the Pacers in Indianapolis, but Russell Westbrook turned in a vintage line: 24 PTS, 13 REB, 14 AST on 10/16 FG, 2/3 3PT, 2/4 FT, plus 2 STL and 1 BLK in 40 minutes. Indiana closed on a late run to seal it, but Russ kept Sacramento in it with downhill pressure and kick-outs all night. #NBA #Kings #Pacers #RussellWestbrook #TripleDouble #StatLine #NBATalk10Share
James Allen+FollowDerik Queen Makes History: 33-10-10, 4 BLK on 73% ShootingWhat a coming-out party. Derik Queen put up a 33 PTS, 10 AST, 10 REB triple-double on 11-of-15 FG — and added 4 BLOCKS — in the Pelicans’ thriller vs. the Spurs. Queen is the first rookie center in NBA history to record a 30-point triple-double; with the 4 blocks, it’s a rookie stat line we’ve never seen. San Antonio still stole it late behind Dylan Harper, but Queen’s efficiency and two-way pop were the story. #NBA #DerikQueen #Pelicans #RookieWatch #TripleDouble 10Share
CrimsonChimera+FollowGobert's dirty elbow has me absolutely fumingThe Stifle Tower completely lost his composure and threw away a winnable game against Phoenix with that bush league elbow to Williams' ribs. Sure, maybe Williams caught him accidentally earlier, but you don't retaliate like some street ball scrub when you're supposed to be the anchor of this defense. Fifteen points and eight boards down the drain because Rudy couldn't keep his emotions in check during a crucial Western Conference battle. Now Naz Reid has to step up and protect the paint while we're trying to extend this five-game win streak. What's your take on Gobert's meltdown? #Sports #Basketball #NBA00Share
Christopher Brown+FollowTyrese Maxey Says LeBron’s Passion for Basketball Is UnmatchedSixers guard Tyrese Maxey had nothing but respect for 40-year-old King James after the game. Maxey said what stands out most isn’t the box score—it’s the veteran’s relentless love for basketball that keeps shining in his year 23. At this rate, Lebron's story isn't just a vet hanging on — he's still outworking everyone in terms of self discpline and passion for the game. #NBA #LeBron #TyreseMaxey #Lakers #Sixers #Longevity #KingJames 20Share
Ryan Lopez+FollowPaul Pierce’s “MJ Bag” Take: Era Debate Heats UpSo Paul Pierce just set NBA Twitter on fire again, saying SGA has a deeper bag than MJ—but he clarified he meant in today’s context. The Truth says Jordan’s game was perfect for his era, but today’s stars like SGA, Kyrie, and even Wemby need more moves to beat modern defenses. Do you think needing more moves means you’re better, or is MJ’s efficiency more impressive? Where do you stand on the “bag” debate? #Sports #Basketball #NBA00Share
Theresa Boyd+FollowCan Boston End Thunder’s Dynasty Dreams?Paul Pierce, aka “The Truth,” just dropped a hot take: he thinks his Celtics are the only squad that can stop the Thunder from running the league for the next five years. While OKC’s young core and Chet Holmgren’s length have fans talking dynasty, Pierce says Boston’s depth and star power are the real threat. Not everyone’s buying it, though—Danny Green points out OKC’s size mismatch. Who do you believe: the legend or the numbers? #Sports #Basketball #NBA00Share
David Howard+FollowWarriors blitz the Bulls 36–15 in the 4th quarter, winning back to back without Steph&DrayGolden State smoked Chicago 123–91 on the second night of a back-to-back — closing with a 36–15 fourth — while Steph Curry and Draymond Green didn’t even suit up. Rookie Brandin Podziemski (21) and big Quinten Post (19) headlined a deep, energetic rotation, with Jimmy Butler steady in his return. The Warriors drilled 22 threes and held a third straight opponent under 100. So… did Steve Kerr find something? It looks like he’s leaning into youth + pace + five-out spacing: Podz as a connector, Post as a pick-and-pop threat, plus wings flying around to defend and rebound. If this bench-heavy, movement-first identity sticks when the vets come back, the arrow’s up in the West. #DubNation #Warriors #NBA #BrandinPodziemski #QuintenPost #JimmyButler #SteveKerr #NextManUp 10Share
Brian Gaines+FollowPenny: Jokic Would Struggle vs 90s BigsPenny Hardaway just dropped a hot take on the 'Hoop Genius' podcast, saying Nikola Jokic is the best of his era but not the GOAT. According to Penny, Joker would have a tough time against 90s legends like Shaq, Hakeem, and The Admiral. He respects Jokic’s all-around game, but thinks the physical, defensive-minded centers of the 90s would give him fits. Do you agree, or is Joker’s skill set truly timeless? #Sports #Basketball #NBA00Share
Robert Johansson+FollowVJ Edgecombe got his idol's jersey after loss to Lakers tonightVJ Edgecombe once said LeBron James was his favorite player growing up and the reason he picked up a basketball. He even said getting LeBron’s jersey would mean a lot. But it’d feel better if Philly won tonight. After the game, the rookie finally got the jersey from his idol — a full-circle moment for a player who grew up watching LeBron and is now sharing the floor with him. A loss on the scoreboard, but a massive personal W for Edgecombe. #NBA #LeBronJames #VJEdgecombe #Lakers #Sixers #Rookie #JerseySwap #NBAMoments #Basketball 33Share
