Associated Press OAKLAND, Calif. — Lou Williams led the Los Angeles Clippers to the largest postseason comeback in NBA history. Landry Shamet hit a go-ahead 3-pointer with 16.5 seconds left, Stephen Currycouldn’t answer on the other end, and the Clippers somehow rallied from 31 points down on the road to stun the Golden State Warriors 135-131 on Monday night and even […]
Associated Press DENVER — Jamal Murray just couldn’t get the bad taste out of his mouth, and even a bite of pretzel he poached from a kid after tumbling into the stands in the third quarter wasn’t exactly satisfying. “It was really dry,” Murray said. Maybe it was just what Murray needed, however, helping spark his fabulous […]
Associated Press SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Instead of dwelling on his mistake that let Sacramento tie the game in the closing seconds, Gordon Hayward made it moot. Hayward made up for a costly foul by hitting a tiebreaking shot with 2 seconds to play that helped the Boston Celtics overcome the absence of injured star Kyrie Irving in a 111-109 victory over […]
Associated Press WASHINGTON — Bradley Beal made sure to grab his phone in the locker room and get a good look at video of his dunk over 7-foot-2 Salah Mejri, which was embellished by a staredown afterward. “This one might take the crown, because there was a lot of body-to-body contact,” the 6-foot-5 Beal said with a smile. […]
Associated Press ATLANTA — LaMarcus Aldridge and Derrick White provided quite a 1-2 punch for the San Antonio Spurs.

Associated Press DALLAS — Harrison Barnes stayed on the bench in the fourth quarter after news broke that the Dallas Mavericks forward had been traded to Sacramento. The seventh-year player lingered on the floor a few extra moments after the game to chat up some Charlotte opponents, then walked through a throng of fans who seemed to want to […]
Associated Press OAKLAND, Calif. — Kevin Durant wants everyone to forget the free agency chatter and speculation about where he might play next season, calling it “unnecessary.” That’s still months away and he is trying to win another championship with the Golden State Warriors. The two-time reigning NBA Finals MVP wants no part of any association with the New […]
Associated Press SACRAMENTO, Calif. — James Harden and the Houston Rockets are finding their rhythm at the right time. Looks as if some help is on the way, too. Harden made eight 3-pointers and scored 36 points, helping Houston beat the Sacramento Kings 127-101 on Wednesday night. “We played very, very well,” Harden said. “We’re kind of catching a momentum and […]
Associated Press SAN ANTONIO — The San Antonio Spurs are starting to feel better about their play, which is a welcome sign for the former defensive stalwarts following a series of blowout losses. DeMar DeRozan had 26 points and eight assists and Rudy Gay added 23 points and 15 rebounds to lead the Spurs to a 110-97 victory over the Utah […]
