As a result, Pogba had overworked himself, risking an sports Injury rehabilitation|https://sportsinjuryfocus.com/ that eventually struck against Ba

"Who knows?" Bledsoe said. "I love the fans and I hope they love me back, but you know how that go. Love my teammates I played with while I was there. I'm just focused on the game. I got great teammates that will have my ba

When the Miami Heat signed center Hassan Whiteside to a maximum contract extension in the summer of 2016, it became obvious that they were relying on him to lead the franchise out of the glory days of LeBron James, Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade and into a new

"Coming from a different team, you talk about what was the perception of this team when you were at another team," Paul explained . "People a lot of times don't think about that. You want to know, so you try to make sure that you can try to correct those things…We want to play up-tempo and all that different type of stuff, but it's no secret that the NBA champions (for) the past six, seven years have all been top 10 in defen

The news arrives in a month that has already seen Mourinho fall out with one of his midfielders, namely Ander Herrera. The Spaniard has made just one start in 2017-18, despite collecting the Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year Award last sea

The 27-year-old averaged a career-high 21.1 points, 6.3 assists and 4.8 rebounds per game on 43.4 percent shooting last season with Phoenix but his numbers didn't have much effect on the team as they were constantly losing ga

In Wisconsin, however, those numbers would prove to be valuable for his new team as they would love to ease the scoring load on star player Giannis Antetokounmpo and rely on another player to create his own offe

After sending out a tweet effectively stating that he no longer wanted to be a part of the Phoenix Suns, the team wasted little time in granting Eric Bledsoe his wish by trading him to the Milwaukee Bu

After Wednesday’s game, the Heat will host the Charlotte Hornets on Friday night, the Golden State Warriors on Sunday and then will embark on a three-game road trip. It remains to be seen if Whiteside will take the floor for any of those ga

And Pogba, freshly liberated by the arrival of Nemanja Matic, showed his quality in the early weeks of the new campaign. The Frenchman has already collected an impressive two goals and two assists in just four league ga

Paul Pogba entered the second season of his Manchester United return with a point to prove.Having been reunited with the Red Devils for a then world record fee of £89 million, the Frenchman embarked on a rather nondescript 2016-17 campaign. Flashes of talent were certainly there but the 24-year-old was far from justifying his weighty price tag.Nevertheless, he did end the season as he meant to start the next - scoring what essentially proved the winner in United's make-or-break Europa League final with A

Despite not featuring in the playoffs in the four years he spent in Arizona, he should still be able to deal with pressure situations better than some of the Bucks youngsters and take on more responsibility both on and off the fl

While the Rockets have been a dominant offensive team under D’Antoni, their deficiency has been on the defensive side of the ball. Paul seems to be aware of that and thinks he can help the situation as one of the best perimeter defenders at the point guard posit

As a result, United fans were justifiably worried when their star midfielder hobbled off the pitch during their Champions League victory over FC Basel. A hamstring injury was immediately suspected and current estimates suggest Pogba will miss the next six ga

Naturally, there are a few questions about Paul’s return. What happens with Gordon, who is on an absolute tear? How will the ball-handling duties be split between him, Gordon and Harden? Will he start or come off the bench? How many minutes will he play? Rotationally, what makes se

"It's really bothering me, man," Whiteside said at his locker at Madison Square Garden, per Ira Winderman of the Sun-Sentinel . "We're going to figure it out. We're going to figure it out when we get back to Miami and figure out what's wro

It's difficult to play good D on a rebuilding team filled with young players still learning their assignments, so it's unfair to point to Bledsoe's deficiencies on that end of the floor in a Suns unif

Last season, his first under his new deal, Whiteside delivered in a major way, averaging 17.0 points, 14.1 rebounds and 2.1 blocks in 32.6 minutes per contest over 77 games, firmly establishing himself as one of the best centers in the entire

"We talked about the ultimate goal, and that's winning [it all]. Neither one of us have had the opportunity to do that," Paul said of Harden at his introductory press conference . "We talked about how good that would feel. That's probably what I'm most excited about, is to be on this journey with somebody else who wants it as bad as I
