“I truly believe this is the beginning of something big.” Those were the words of Džanan Musa just minutes after Dubai lifted the ABA League trophy in the cauldron of Belgrade Arena.

When Valencia Basket announced in mid-April 2026 that Brancou Badio had signed a contract extension through the summer of 2029, the move felt less like a routine piece of roster management and more like the formal recognition of a relationship that had been years in the making.

I’m walking through Manhattan. I reach Midtown and there it is – Madison Square Garden, rising directly above Penn Station. If Manhattan makes you feel like you’re standing at the center of the world, then MSG is the heart of that center. It’s September. The lobby is enormous, the team store immaculate. Everything shines.

“At first glance, if you saw Ibon Navarro and Crvena zvezda together, a lot of people would probably scratch their heads. But when you look at what Navarro has done over the last four years in Málaga… it’s been nothing short of remarkable.” Those were the words of Nihad Đedović, a player who has been […]

The Miami Heat are back in a familiar place, somewhere near the center of a major NBA rumor. But this time it’s only about whether Pat Riley can bring another star to Florida. The real question is whether Miami can still jump several steps with one move and get back among the teams that are […]
