Wisconsin Badgers alum John Tonje was among the rookies Utah Jazz named for the Summer League but the 6’4 shooting guard was not able to play. The Summer League match up between the Jazz and the Philadephia 76ers ended in the latter’s victory but the bigger story was the match up between no. 3 pick VJ Edgecomb and no. 5 pick Ace Bailey. The young players could have used someone like him in the game, especially since it ended in a close one. Tonje was picked 53rd overall by the Jazz in the recent NBA draft and team’s Vice President…

There’s still so much to iron out for the Milwaukee Bucks and add to that the need to search for a new assistant coach as the team lost assistant coach Joe Prunty to the Orlando Magic. Prunty is part of legendary Gregg Popovich’s head coaching tree. He returned to the Bucks in 2024 after leaving them in 2018. He is known as a players’ coach and has established a close relationship with players, especially superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo. NBA insider Marc Stein reported the news through his own podcast (with paywall). Update from @TheSteinLine: “Orlando is indeed adding Bucks assistant Joe…

A punter is regarded as an underrated role in American football since their attempts don’t directly score points but for Wisconsin Badgers football’s Atticus Bertrams, he knows how much the team relies on him. Badgers come to the new season with lesser expectations coming from analysts. This is following their failed 2024 season where they did not reach a Bowl game for first time since 2001. The rankings are not hoping for the Badgers to break through and return to football glory. Bertrams feel totally different about himself entering his third year. He thinks he is an important player head…

The Milwaukee Bucks need a point guard, until now, and some fans thought they did get a back up after they traded Pat Connaughton plus two second-round picks to the Charlotte Hornets in exchange for Vasilije Micic. Micic, 31, has two years of NBA experience, having played for three teams. He suited up first for the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Phoenix Suns, and the Charlotte Hornets. He brags a stacked European ball experience having won almost everything there is. He won the EuroLeague MVP in 2021 and then the EuroLeague Final 4 MVP twice. He could have been a Bucks…

Optimism is what could be Wisconsin Badgers football’s main weapon this new season as that is something many analysts don’t have when it comes to the question of how they will perform this time. Head coach Luke Fickell’s squad are hoping to rise from a losing season, the first since 2001 under Barry Alvarez. It was also the first time they did not play in a bowl game. The team underwent major changes with their line-up as a score of player decided to move out through the transfer portal. There are those who came in as reinforcements but analysts don’t…

It has been four years since the time Milwaukee Bucks won their first title in 50 years and Bobby Portis is joining fans reliving it, especially now that there are only three players left from that team. The Bucks made major movements this offseason and it entailed offloading players who helped them beat the Phoenix Suns in 2021 in six games. There were four players who were part of that team last season – Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bobby Portis, Brook Lopez, and Pat Connaughton. However, the way their season ended forced them to make huge decisions. First to be let go…

Milwaukee Bucks are reportedly among the teams having interest on veteran Bradley Beal as the team continue their effort to fortify their roster.

Suns reporter Duane Rankin wrote through the AZ Central: The Phoenix Suns have been discussing a possible buyout for guard Bradley Beal, league sources have informed The Arizona Republic.

Aaron Rodgers’ time with the New York Jets is something that should be forgotten if one would consider the hype that surrounded the now Pittsburgh Steelers QB went through in 2023. A-Rod played just one game with them in the first season. He played all 17 games in the next one but they failed to reach the playoffs after finishing with a 5-12 record. Their separation was not ideal with some words said between the front office and Rodgers. This is after owner Woody Johnson said that they think they made the right choice. “The experiment was a good experiment…

Kam Jones leads the pack of aspiring young players hoping to land a spot with the Indiana Pacers as the Marquette Golden Eagles’ former star gets named in the team’s Summer League squad. The 23-year-old rookie was selected 38th overall in the draft via the San Antonio Spurs and landed with the Pacers where analysts thinks he can thrive. The team will be without Tyrese Haliburton for most of the 2025-26 season and they will need a point guard reliever while waiting for him. Indiana may have lost Myles Turner in the free agency, a move that got them F…
