NBA Preview: Los Angeles Clippers (25-24) at Los Angeles Lakers (22-25)

0

Still searching for the success that would match the optimism they possessed heading into the season, the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers meet again Tuesday amid the same old refrain: Better days are ahead.

When the teams met in the first week of the season, the Clippers earned a 103-97 victory in Kawhi Leonard’s return after missing last season because of knee surgery.

The Clippers downed the Lakers again on Nov. 9, prevailing 114-101 as Leonard was in the midst of a 12-game absence caused by residual knee soreness and the Lakers were nearing the end of a gloomy 2-10 start to the season.

When the teams meet Tuesday, the Clippers are expected to have their stars on the court, with some other key pieces close to a return for their injury-plagued roster. For the Lakers, Anthony Davis is showing signs he should be able to return this week from his current 19-game absence.

The Lakers struggled when Davis went down with a foot injury, before LeBron James led a resurgence by averaging 35.1 points over his past 10 games. The Lakers have played 12 total games in that stretch and have shown their improvement by producing an 8-4 record.

The Lakers not only ended the Memphis Grizzlies’ 11-game winning streak at home Friday, but they followed that with a 121-112 road victory over the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday when James scored 37 points and they came back from a 25-point halftime deficit.

James hopes for bigger and better things when Davis hits the court again.

On Monday, the Lakers added Washington Wizards forward Rui Hachimura to the roster in a move that cost them guard Kendrick Nunn and three second-round picks.

Not only have the Clippers been playing it safe with Leonard, using frequent load-management of days, but Paul George has missed six games this month because of a hamstring issue. George finally played in consecutive games this weekend for the first time since the injury surfaced, and the Clippers won both.

The pair of road victories came against the San Antonio Spurs, 131-126 on Friday, and the Dallas Mavericks, 112-98 on Sunday. Leonard scored 36 and 30 points, respectively, and his 39 minutes on Sunday represented a season high.

George had 21 points on Sunday as the Clippers defeated the Mavericks for the second time in two weeks, although the Clippers are just 4-9 since Dec. 29.

With the Clippers in search of a point guard they can trust, George has been thrust into the role as of late as John Wall deals with an abdominal injury and Reggie Jackson works to regain the trust of the coaching staff.

NBA Preview: Charlotte Hornets (13-35) at Phoenix Suns (24-24)

0

There are several reasons for the Phoenix Suns to be stocked with newfound confidence.

But taking it slow in that category is advised.

“I don’t want to get happy on the farm about all that stuff,” coach Monty Williams said. “I think this group has to play together a bit more. It just takes time to get a team rhythm. Once we do, I think we can be pretty good.”

After losing 12 of 14 games, Phoenix is riding a three-game winning streak and will look to continue building momentum when the Charlotte Hornets come to town on Tuesday night.

The Suns’ victories have come by a combined 12 points, with the most recent win being a 112-110 decision against the Memphis Grizzlies on Sunday.

Charlotte has won two games in a row twice this season, but a 120-102 loss at Utah on Monday kept the Hornets from their first three-game winning streak of the season.

The glaring issue for the Hornets was the discrepancy from beyond the arc. Utah hit 16 shots from 3-point range, while Charlotte attempted only 16 treys and made two. The Hornets ended up with the fewest made 3-pointers of any NBA team in a game this season.

“Sixteen is still a small number, but they built their defense on taking threes away,” Charlotte coach Steve Clifford said of the Jazz. “We had 66 points in the paint. I felt like we did a good job with the majority of it. We played a lackluster first half and we were lucky to be that close.”

The Suns hope to be getting in more of a groove with point guard Chris Paul back. In his first game in more than two weeks, Paul posted 22 points in 38 minutes Sunday against Memphis.

The Suns seemed to have cleared one hurdle with Paul back on the court.

The Suns are trying to make the best of every situation as they wait for Devin Booker to return to action from a groin strain. Plus, they will once again be without center Deandre Ayton, who is out with a non-COVID illness.

The Hornets likely will be without guard LaMelo Ball (ankle and wrist injuries) and Cody Martin (knee soreness) in Phoenix as they both sat out Monday night.

Guard James Bouknight and center Kai Jones were both called up from the G League on Sunday, and Jones logged four points in four minutes against Utah. Bouknight didn’t play, though Dennis Smith Jr. provided 15 points off the bench.

Of the Hornets’ 13 victories, eight have come on the road. Tuesday’s game in Phoenix is the last stop on a four-game trip.

The teams will meet again March 1 in Charlotte, N.C.

NBA Preview: Washington Wizards (20-26) at Dallas Mavericks (25-23)

0

The Washington Wizards leave the comforts of the nation’s capital to begin a five-game road trip against the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday already assured their roster will look different when they return.

Currently sitting at 20-26, Washington figures to be one of the more active teams ahead of the NBA trade deadline Feb. 9.

The Wizards made their first move on Monday, when they dealt fourth-year forward Rui Hachimura to the Los Angeles Lakers for Kendrick Nunn and three second-round draft picks.

Hachimura, who is averaging 13.0 points and 4.3 rebounds, matched a career high with 30 points in Washington’s 138-118 victory over the Orlando Magic on Saturday.

Hachimura expressed an openness to being traded after the game.

Moving Hachimura alleviates a logjam at forward for the Wizards, who also have Deni Avdija pushing for more playing time.

Washington has won the last three meetings against Dallas, including a 113-105 decision on Nov. 10. Mavericks star Luka Doncic is averaging 29.5 points, 8.4 rebounds and 7.6 assists in eight career games against the Wizards.

Dallas is looking to bounce back following a 112-98 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday. The Mavericks have dropped four of their last five games and seven of 10 that followed a seven-game winning streak.

One area of concern for the Mavericks has been their free-throw shooting. Dallas ranks second in the NBA in free throws attempted (26.4 per game), but 28th in free-throw shooting percentage at 74.2 after finishing 15 of 26 from the foul line in Sunday’s loss.

Tuesday’s matchup was expected to mark the first Dallas appearance for Kristaps Porzingis since he was traded from the Mavericks to the Wizards almost a year ago. Instead, the 7-foot-3 center will be sidelined for an extended period following an injury over the weekend.

Porzingis, who is averaging 22.1 points and 8.8 rebounds, is listed as week-to-week after leaving Saturday’s game against Orlando in the third quarter with a left ankle sprain.

Porzingis’ injury could result in more playing time for Avdija, who is averaging 8.0 points and 6.0 rebounds. At 6-foot-9 and 210 pounds, Avdija has also emerged as a strong defensive force.

NBA Preview: Denver Nuggets (33-14) at New Orleans Pelicans (26-21)

0

A little over a month ago, the New Orleans Pelicans had the best record in the Western Conference.

Flash forward to late January and a six-week rough stretch has dropped them to fourth place, while the new No. 1 — the surging Denver Nuggets — are set to visit New Orleans on Tuesday.

The Nuggets saw their nine-game winning streak end with a 101-99 home loss to Oklahoma City on Sunday night.

Denver played its second consecutive game without two-time reigning MVP Nikola Jokic, who has tightness in his left hamstring.

It’s unclear if Jokic will play Tuesday, but acting head coach David Adelman he expects his star to return “very soon.” The offense is a shell of itself without him.

Denver forward Michael Porter Jr. also missed the game against Oklahoma City for “personal reasons.”

In the absence of Jokic and Porter, Jamal Murray became the primary scorer and responded with a team-high 26 points and nine assists.

The Pelicans have had trouble getting over the hump during a losing streak that matched a season-worst four games with a 100-96 loss at Miami on Sunday.

The Pelicans’ offense has been outscored in the fourth quarter of each game during the streak and they took a lead into the final quarter in three of those games.

In those fourth quarters, they were outscored 31-24 on Sunday, 35-19 at Orlando on Friday and 35-22 in a loss at Cleveland that started the slide.

The only game during the losing streak in which they didn’t lead through quarters was a 124-98 loss to the Heat last week in their most lopsided loss of the season. Even with most Heat starters sitting out much of the fourth quarter, the Pelicans were outscored 26-22.

The loss on Sunday came after New Orleans led by as many as 16 points. It hurt itself with 25 turnovers.

New Orleans has lost nine of its last 12 games and is starting to show the wear of not having leading scorer Zion Williamson (hamstring) for the last three weeks. It has not had second-leading scorer Brandon Ingram since late November.

The Pelicans overcame a 14-point first-quarter deficit to defeat the Nuggets 121-106 on Dec. 4 at New Orleans. The season series will conclude with games at Denver on Jan. 31 and March 30.

NBA Preview: Cleveland Cavaliers (29-19) at New York Knicks (25-23)

0

In the past month, the New York Knicks are living the life of an extremely streaky team.

The Knicks enjoyed the highs of a captivating eight-game winning streak along with a four-game run.

The Knicks also endured a five-game slide and take a four-game skid into Tuesday’s visit from the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Since falling to 10-13 with a 121-100 home loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Dec. 3, the Knicks are 15-10 in their past 25 games — but how they have reached five games over .500 since then is a streaky display. After the loss to Dallas, the Knicks began an eight-game run with a 92-81 home win over Cleveland on Dec. 4 before starting a five-game skid with a seven-point home loss to the Toronto Raptors on Dec. 21.

The five-game skid ended with a 20-point win in Houston on Dec. 31 and was followed by a four-game winning streak and a run of seven wins in eight games. Since a 117-104 win at Detroit on Jan. 15, the Knicks have dropped four straight by an average of 9.3 points.

The last two losses have come without defensive-minded center Mitchell Robinson, who injured his thumb early in Wednesday’s wire-to-wire 116-105 loss to Washington. In two games without him, the Knicks endured a 139-124 loss at the Atlanta Hawks on Friday and a 125-116 loss in Toronto two nights later to waste a 30-point showing from RJ Barrett.

In Toronto, the Knicks allowed 37 points in the first quarter. It marked the third straight game New York allowed at least 35 points in the opening quarter and occurred after it allowed the Hawks to shoot 56 percent.

The Knicks can rescue themselves by playing better at home as they hold the dubious distinction of being the only team with a winning record that has a losing record at home. New York is 11-13 at home but just 3-6 in its past nine, including blowing a 10-point lead in an overtime loss to Toronto on Jan. 16 and a 17-point lead to the Milwaukee Bucks on Jan. 9.

Cleveland seems likely to get Donovan Mitchell back from a left groin strain after he missed the past three games. Mitchell tweaked his groin Jan. 16 against New Orleans but practiced fully Monday, a sign that he could return against the Knicks, whom he scored 38 against Oct. 30 in Cleveland.

The Cavaliers improved to 3-5 without Mitchell by getting a big night from Evan Mobley in Saturday’s 114-102 win over visiting Milwaukee. Mobley scored a career-high 38 points on 19-of-27 shooting without making a 3-pointer or a free throw.

Mobley reached double-digits for the ninth straight game and also scored 14 points in the fourth quarter.

If Mitchell returns, Caris LeVert would slide back into his reserve role after scoring 58 points and handing out 15 assists in three games in Mitchell’s place.

NBA Preview: Boston Celtics (35-13) at Miami Heat (26-22)

0

The Miami Heat — and particularly center Bam Adebayo — are bracing for a visit from the Boston Celtics on Tuesday night.

And a dogfight it’s been, as the two teams have gone toe-to-toe with each other on some of the biggest stages. Miami eliminated Boston in the 2020 playoffs, when the Heat made it to the NBA Finals. However, Boston got revenge last season, eliminating Miami in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals for a shot at its 18th title.

Adebayo indicated that Boston is one of the teams he respects the most — along with the Milwaukee Bucks.

Miami has gone 10-5 over its past 15 games, surging into sixth place in the Eastern Conference. The Heat had Monday off after rallying from a 16-point deficit to defeat the New Orleans Pelicans 100-96 on Sunday.

Boston, which has the best record in the NBA at 35-13, had its nine-game winning streak snapped on Monday when the Orlando Magic pulled off a 113-98 upset.

The Celtics were short-handed against Orlando, though. Robert Williams III was nursing a left knee injury, while reigning Defensive Player of the Year Marcus Smart was out with a sprained right ankle. Malcolm Brogdon, who has been an effective sixth man, missed Monday’s game for personal reasons.

Williams is averaging 7.7 points, 7.8 rebounds and 1.2 blocks while shooting 75.4 percent from the floor. He’s served as a rim protector, a dynamic lob threat and a surprisingly good passer, but his injury is especially concerning considering he had surgery on that same knee last March.

Marcus Smart is averaging 11.1 points and a team-high 7.2 assists, while Brogdon is scoring 14.3 points per game in his first season in Boston after being acquired via trade this offseason.

Those injuries put even more pressure on Boston’s two biggest stars, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. Tatum is averaging 31.0 points, while Brown is close behind with an average of 26.9.

Brown acknowledged the difficulty of Boston’s current predicament, especially with a meeting with the Heat on the horizon.

Miami will counter Tatum and Brown with its big three — Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro and Adebayo.

Butler leads Miami in scoring (21.6 points per game) and steals (2.1) while ranking second in rebounds (6.1) and assists (5.0). However, he is averaging just 15.0 points while facing consistent double teams over the past two games.

Herro is averaging 20.8 points, 5.9 rebounds and 4.4 assists. Adebayo is averaging 21.4 points and a team-high 10.1 rebounds.

NBA Preview: Chicago Bulls (22-24) at Indiana Pacers (23-25)

0

The sputtering Indiana Pacers will try to snap a seven-game losing streak on Tuesday when the Chicago Bulls, playing the second leg of a back-to-back set, visit Indianapolis.

Chicago comes in riding a three-game winning streak after a 111-100 home victory over the Atlanta Hawks on Monday. DeMar DeRozan scored 26 points in the latest triumph. Zach LaVine added 20 points, and Nikola Vucevic amassed 14 points, 17 rebounds and seven assists.

The result marked a successful return stateside for the Bulls after a 126-108 rout of the Detroit Pistons on Thursday in Paris. LaVine scored 30 points in that contest while DeRozan, rejoining the lineup for the trip to France after a three-game absence caused by a quad injury, finished with 26.

With his back-to-back 26-point outings, DeRozan has scored at least 21 in 13 of his past 15 appearances — with one of the two outliers being the Jan. 9 loss at Boston in which he first sustained his injury.

DeRozan — appearing in his 1,000th career game — was one of six Bulls to score in double figures against the Hawks. Alex Caruso and Coby White recorded 12 and 10 points, respectively, off the bench.

Chicago rallied after shooting 24 percent in the first quarter.

The Bulls will look to continue their defensive play of the past two outings against a Pacers team that has struggled to find consistency with Tyrese Haliburton out of the lineup.

Haliburton — Indiana’s leading scorer on the season at 20.2 points per game and the NBA’s assists leader with 10.2 a contest — has been sidelined sustaining elbow and knee injuries on Jan. 11.

The Pacers are winless over that stretch, having reached their season-long scoring average of 115 points per game just once.

Haliburton told Bally Sports Indiana the elbow is slowing his return to the lineup more than his knee. On JJ Redick’s “The Old Man and The Three” podcast, Haliburton suggested an early February return.

Indiana has dropped two games below .500 due to its ongoing skid.

A positive for the Pacers amid their struggles has been the play of T.J. McConnell. After flirting with a triple-double on Jan. 14 against Memphis and scoring a career-high 29 points on Jan. 16 at Milwaukee, McConnell posted a triple-double on Saturday in Indiana’s 112-107 loss at Phoenix: 18 points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds.

McConnell’s move into the starting five sent rookie Bennedict Mathurin back to the bench, where he has thrived much of the season. After scoring 26 points in the first of four consecutive starts, Mathurin recorded less than his 17.3-point per game in three straight outings.

He finished with 19 and 23 in Indiana’s past two games, coming off the bench each time.

Defender Alexander Callens Departs New York City Football Club

0

New York, N.Y., – New York City Football Club today announced that Defender Alexander Callens has departed the Club to join LaLiga side Girona FC.

Alex joined New York ahead of the 2017 season and has played 193 games logging in 17,083 minutes for NYCFC across all competitions, scoring 15 goals and providing one assist. The Peruvian defender played a crucial role in helping the Club add its first pieces of silverware to its trophy cabinet with the 2021 MLS Cup and Campeones Cup in 2022.

NYCFC Sporting Director David Lee said “I’d like to thank Alex for the tremendous amount he has given to the Club since his arrival. We have seen Alex grow into the player and leader he is today through his incredible work ethic and commitment, establishing himself as one of our longest serving players. His performances have earned him recognition as one of the best defenders in the league, and he will go down in NYCFC history for playing a vital role in helping us win MLS Cup and Campeones Cup.

“Not only is Alex a fantastic player, he is also a great person and has brought so much energy and positivity to our group over the years. While we’re sad to see him go, we understand that it was Alex’s desire to test himself in a new league in Europe. Alex is another example of the strong culture we have here in New York of identifying players and helping them develop and achieve their professional goals. We look forward to closely following Alex’s career and we wish him all the best in Spain.”

In the 2021 MLS Cup run, Alex scored the winning goal in the First Round of the playoffs against Atlanta United in Yankee Stadium to earn a place in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. In Foxborough, the Peruvian scored the winning penalty against New England and the championship winning penalty against Portland in MLS Cup. Meanwhile in the 2022 Campeones Cup, Alex opened the score for NYCFC in the first minutes to help the team win 2-0 against Liga MX champions Atlas F.C.

A stalwart on defense, Alex became a fan favorite earning himself the nickname “Ironman” for his consistency and durability on the pitch. His performances earned him an MLS All-Star nod in 2022 and was a finalist for MLS Defender of the Year. While at his time in the Bronx, Alex was called up to the Peruvian National Team where he made 26 appearances while donning The Bronx Blue.

Everyone at the Club would like to wish Alex all the best in Spain.

Hyman, Stamkos and Zegras Named NHL ‘Three Stars’ of the Week

0

NEW YORK – Edmonton Oilers left wing Zach Hyman, Tampa Bay Lightning center Steven Stamkos and Anaheim Ducks center Trevor Zegras have been named the NHL’s “Three Stars” for the week ending Jan. 22.

FIRST STAR – ZACH HYMAN, LW, EDMONTON OILERS

Hyman paced the NHL with 4-5—9 and a +8 rating, recording multiple points in each of his three outings to help the Oilers (27-18-3, 57 points) post a perfect week and extend their overall winning streak to six contests dating to Jan. 11. He registered 1-2—3, including an assist on Warren Foegele’s decisive goal, in a 5-2 triumph over the Seattle Kraken Jan. 17. Hyman then scored twice (his 19th career multi-goal performance) in a 5-3 victory against the Tampa Bay Lightning Jan. 19. He capped the week with his second career four-point game (1-3—4), factoring on all four Edmonton goals in a 4-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks Jan. 21. The 30-year-old Hyman has points in five straight contests dating to Jan. 13 (4-8—12), including multiple points in a career-best four consecutive games since Jan. 14 (4-7—11). He ranks 14th in the NHL with 24-32—56 overall in 2022-23 (47 GP), already surpassing his career high of 27-27—54 set in 76 appearances last season (his first with the Oilers).

SECOND STAR – STEVEN STAMKOS, C, TAMPA BAY LIGHTNING

Stamkos, who became the 47th player in NHL history to reach the 500-goal milestone, shared the League lead with five goals in four contests (5-1—6) to guide the Lightning (29-15-1, 59 points) to a 2-2-0 week. He collected one assist as Tampa Bay snapped the Seattle Kraken’s eight-game winning streak with a 4-1 victory Jan. 16. Stamkos then potted his 11th career hat trick, highlighted by his 500th goal, in a 5-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks Jan. 18. He became the eighth player in League history to reach the milestone and record a hat trick in the same game – and first since Mats Sundin on Oct. 14, 2006 (w/ TOR). Stamkos finished the week with one goal in each of his next two contests, a 5-3 loss to the Edmonton Oilers Jan. 19 and a 6-3 defeat versus the Calgary Flames Jan. 21. The 32-year-old Lightning captain and two-time Maurice “Rocket” Richard Trophy winner sits 16th in the League with 23-31—54 in 45 total outings this season.

THIRD STAR – TREVOR ZEGRAS, C, ANAHEIM DUCKS

Zegras ranked second in the NHL with 4-4—8 in four games as the Ducks (13-29-5, 31 points) went 1-2-1. He notched 1-1—2 in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins Jan. 16, followed by one assist in a 5-2 defeat against the Philadelphia Flyers Jan. 17. Zegras then posted 1-1—2 (including the game-winning goal) in a 5-3 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets Jan. 19 before closing the week with 2-1—3 (his fifth career three-point performance) in a 6-3 loss to the Buffalo Sabres Jan. 21. The 21-year-old Zegras, who finished second in Calder Memorial Trophy voting in 2021-22 (23-38—61 in 75 GP), leads Anaheim with 17 goals and 40 points through 47 total contests this season (17-23—40).
