News on Basketball that covers every team

Unlike some other websites, our news on basketball is reported 100% without any bias. Being a fan of one of the NBA’s smaller teams can often be very frustrating. While organizations such as the LA Lakers and Chicago Bulls dominated column inches, some of the less illustrious sides are often forgotten.

Here at the Sports Fan Journal we are fully committed to putting a stop to this. Instead of only covering the teams that earn the most web traffic, you have our promise that we will select our NBA basketball news based solely on how interesting it is.

For instance, if a lesser-known team starts to dominate the Eastern Conference, you have our guarantee that we will be reporting on it as we are huge basketball fans. The same can be said if we believe there is a particularly important piece of basketball news that needs to be shared from across the continent.

Although they do not garner as much attention in the NBA, Spain, England, Slovenia, and many more all boost superb basketball leagues that can create some incredible stories. A quick look at the prominence of European players in the NBA proves this. Nikola Jovic, Luka Doncic, and Giannis Antetokounmpo are some of the league’s best players who are all destined to end up being inducted into the Hall of Fame. They also all came up through various leagues in Europe - proving how important it is to keep an eye on all the news on basketball from across the pond.

Our fondness for taking a global perspective on reporting is echoed across all of the sports we cover. For example, when we bring you the latest MMA news and rumors we will not just be discussing UFC. Bellator, FNG, Rizin, and many more will also be included.

The latest updates on your favorite NBA stars

Although you can be sure that our reporting on NBA teams will always be balanced and unbiased, it will not surprise you to find out that the very best NBA players will be receiving more coverage than the Portland Trail Blazers’ bench warmers.

The league's current crop of stars is incredible and you can expect the very best updates on all of them right here on the Sports Fan Journal. Whether you are in love with the spectacular dunks and blocks of Giannis Antetokounmpo, have been a Lebron James fan since day one, or love the ridiculous shooting ability of Steph Curry, your number one resource for information on all of these fine players is right here.

It’s not just the high-profile NBA stars that we like to keep our eye on though. We are also a great resource for keeping tabs on the league’s most exciting, young prospects. Every single season, the race to win the illustrious Rookie of the Year award gets most competitive. In the past, the gong has been scooped by the likes of Kevin Durrant, Derrick Rose, and Damian Lillard - some of the most exciting players in the league’s long history.

Because of this, any discerning NBA fan should be keeping track of the league’s young guns and there's no better way to do that than by reading the latest basketball news right here. We’ll be doing the same for some of the best up and coming boxers as well. For that information, head over to our latest boxing news.

Follow the Latest NBA Injury updates

The NBA season is long and grueling. As if the 82 game regular season wasn’t hard enough, the best teams then face up to four more playoff games before they can be crowned champions. With such a flurry of action to contend with, it is no surprise that most teams are affected by injuries throughout the year. It’s exactly the same in the NFL and you can find out injury updates from that league by checking out our latest football news right now.

Whether it be knee, ankle, or calf problems, no NBA organization has ever been fortunate enough to navigate a whole campaign without having to deal with at least some health problems within their squad. As you will know if you follow basketball news, some of the league’s top stars - including Kevin Durant, Bam Adebayo, and Steph Curry - endured injury hit seasons last time out.

Injuries are a source of frustration for fans and you can keep up to date with your team’s latest problems by checking out our daily news on basketball.

Keep up to date with the NBA’s biggest trades

Who doesn’t love a big trade? The feeling of a blockbuster transfer finally being announced after weeks of rumors is absolutely brilliant. Whether it be LeBron James’ earth-shattering switch to Miami, James Harden’s breakout move to Houston, or Kawhi Leonard’s being traded to Toronto, we have been treated to some box office transactions in recent times.

Even with NBA teams cutting their cloth, we very much expect this trend to continue over the coming months. To make sure you are in the know about all the latest deals in the NBA, keep checking back to the Sports Fan Journal for the latest news on basketball.

It’s not just trades that we will be reporting on, however. Bringing you the latest NBA basketball news also means we will cover all the biggest free agency switches in the summer months. Over the next few seasons, there is some serious talent available and we cannot wait to report on these huge deals.

All the latest NBA head coaches news

The role of the head coach has become increasingly important in the modern NBA. As the standard of the league has skyrocketed, teams are increasingly looking for fine margins to get ahead. One such example is superior coaching, tactics, and organization.

With this higher standard comes greater demands on the coaches themselves and many more are finding themselves replaced before the season is out. Keeping track of all of the backroom moving and shaking in the NBA can be challenging. Your best bet of remaining in the loop is keeping your eyes peeled on the latest news on basketball right here.

Keep up to date with the best NBA draft prospects

The draft system is unique to American sports. In the case of the NBA, it involves the best basketball prospects in the world being brought into the league with each team allowed to draft two players per season. Draft night itself is one of the most exciting days of the year. It involves a lot of backroom trades and negotiations as teams try to move up the board.

Our expert team loves reporting on this and you can expect plenty of draft night updates in our NBA basketball news when it does come around.


However, before the NBA Draft itself, there is still plenty of news we can bring you. For example, we will be giving you an in-depth lowdown on all the players we are tipping to get drafted in the early stages of the draft. Using our in-depth knowledge of statistics and other scouting methods, we will detail exactly which future rookie is likely to come straight into the league and thrive.

For any baseball fans out there, we will perform the same scouting for all the best MLB draft prospects. Check out our up-to-date baseball news now to find out who is ready to take the league by storm.
