It shouldn’t have been possible for Nikola Jokic to take his game to an even higher level this season. The Denver Nuggets superstar had already won three NBA MVPs, one NBA championship, and one NBA Finals MVP entering the 2024-25 season. With Jokic firmly in his prime at age-29, it felt like the Nuggets were crumbling around him: Denver lost three key pieces from the 2023 championship team over the last two years, Jamal Murray was dipping in performance due to injuries, and none of the young players the franchise drafted had truly popped.

The Chicago Bears had so much optimism heading into the 2024 season. It ended the way most years do for the Bears over the last 35 years: with bitter disappointment and widespread embarrassment throughout the organization.

The 2026 NBA Draft looks like an all-timer because of three special talents.

Bronny James is spending most of his rookie season in the G League after he was selected by the Los Angeles Lakers at the end of the second round of the 2024 NBA Draft.

The Eagles are back in the Super Bowl. Here’s how to watch.

The Eagles broke an NFL record that had stood for nearly 35 years with their amazing performance against the Commanders in the NFC Championship.

The Buffalo Bills offense needed to keep scoring touchdowns as it trailed the Kansas City Chiefs by one score early in the third quarter of the 2025 AFC Championship Game. The Bills dug deep and turned in a methodical drive down the field and took them all the way to the goal line. Buffalo had already converted one fourth down on the drive when they faced 4th-and-goal from the Chiefs’ 1-yard-line. Buffalo had no choice but to go for it.

NFL fans tend to believe that the Kansas City Chiefs get every call from the refs. KC was on the favorable end of questionable roughing the passer call in their win over the Houston Texans in the NFL Playoffs last week, and the trend has continued against the Buffalo Bills in the 2025 AFC Championship Game.
