The NBA has been dominated by tall players over the years. However, many short-heightened players have proved their mettle with unbelievable athleticism. For instance, 5’9” Nate Robinson blocked 7’6” Yao Ming in 2006, while 5-foot-7 Spud Webb shocked the world in the 1986 Slam Dunk Contest by beating Dominik Wilkins.

For Gerald Green, a Big3 championship at TD Garden is as full-circle as it gets

History was made on a Tuesday night in Boston, as the first-ever WNBA game was played in TD Garden in front of a raucous, sold-out crowd. The Sun defeated the Sparks 69-61, but the final score seemed almost secondary to the moment itself, which felt larger than life and teeming with historical significance.

Javonte Green gets a chance to build on the momentum from his play to end last season and carve out a role with the Pelicans, where he will try to help Zion Williamson participate in the playoffs for the first time in his career.

The New Orleans Pelicans have had a crazy offseason up to this point. They acquired Dejounte Murray from the Atlanta Hawks and signed veteran big man Daniel Theis this summer. On the flip side, they lost Jonas Valanciunas to the Washington Wizards and sent Larry Nance Jr. and Cody Zeller to the Hawks. Furthermore, talks of the team possibly trading former All-Star Brandon Ingram were prominent for much of the year. However, at this point, a trade to move on from Ingram seems less likely. After getting swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first round of the 2024 playoffs, the Pelicans upgraded their team and should return better than they were last season. Ultimately, the Pelicans are likely done with the bulk of their moves this summer. However, the team is still filling out their roster over a month and a half into the offseason.

The NBA world has quickly forgotten about Zion Williamson and the New Orleans Pelicans. Despite being one of the few teams who made a major addition in the offseason by trading for star guard Dejounte Murray, it seems that the league and its followers are unimpressed with this new iteration of the team.

It’s a cracking morning, and the first home game of the season. We are gathered, a hundred strong approximately, waiting on the two buses that will transport us to the Stadium of Light. Some of us have not seen each other since the dismal end to last season, so there are waves and handshakes, smiles, and comments like “here we go again” and “why do we put ourselves through this?”

We are officially closer to the end of the preseason than the beginning. Real, actual football is finally almost in our lives on a daily basis. Technically speaking, we have football going on of various types.
