The reserves for the 2025 NBA All-Star Game were announced Thursday and sparked social media posts about who was snubbed.
The Houston Rockets defeated the Atlanta Hawks last night, 100-96. The win comes on the second half of a back-to-back, as the Rockets defeated the Boston Celtics in TD Garden the previous night. This win at State Farm Arena was yet another test, as Houston has built a legitimate resume this season.
Though the strength of schedule over this span hasn’t necessarily been impressive, Phoenix has been better recently, winning nine of its last 13 games. So, as the team continues its pursuit of Jimmy Butler, the Suns (24-22) are moving their way up the standings.
The TikTok ban caused social media to be in shambles and the Atlanta Hawks social media team made a joke about it.
The Oklahoma City Thunder have been one of, if not, the best teams in the NBA this season. Oklahoma City currently sits at the top of the Western Conference and the NBA standings with a 37-8 record.
The Hawks poked fun at Anthony's time with the franchise by likening it to the now-viral TikTok ban that was reversed. The Hawks posted an image of Anthony's Hawks jersey on their X account (formerly Twitter). This prompted the former NBA All-Star to talk about that time of his career on the "7 PM in Brooklyn" podcast.
The Phoenix Suns have four bigs on the roster, including newly acquired 7-footer Nick Richards. Nurkic was moved to the bench earlier this month.
The Oklahoma City Thunder (and the Seattle Supersonics before them) have 51 jersey numbers worn by the players who have suited up for the franchise since its founding at the start of the 1967-68 season.
The Knicks and Nuggets are surging, while the Warriors watch their window close. Meanwhile, the Cavs and Thunder have their business on lock.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander made franchise history in the Oklahoma City Thunder's loss to the Golden State Warriors.
The Celtics' veteran leader took a long, winding road to his first NBA title, and he's reaping the rewards of his patience.
The West Orange, N.J. native and former St. Patrick High School star was left off the list of reserves despite a brilliant season in which he’s averaging 24.2 points, 4.9 assists and 4.2 rebounds while shooting 48% from the field and 42% from deep.
