Somebody get that Pesky Pole out of the way.

Phil Simms paid tribute to his former broadcast partner, Greg Gumbel, who died Friday after a battle with cancer.

Travis Kelce's teammates and NFL friends gifted the star a reported $120,000 worth of memorabilia for Christmas to replace several stolen items.

Former Jets coach Eric Mangini said that Rodgers has been "doing everything he can to get cut" by owner Woody Johnson.

Mike Brown was Jordi Fernandez’s mentor in Sacramento, and the first-year Nets head coach was saddened to learn the Kings fired his close friend.

Starters Cam Johnson (hip contusion) and Ben Simmons (lower back maintenance) joined leading scorer Cam Thomas (hamstring) out of the Nets lineup. 

It doesn’t happen often, but Jalen Brunson was not on the floor for a sizable chunk of the fourth quarter of the Knicks’ comeback win on Christmas.

And following a disjointed 5-6 start while integrating two new starters, Tom Thibodeau’s Knicks have taken off over the past six weeks.

On the night the Knicks finally added a new piece for their bench, second-unit guard Cam Payne enjoyed his finest performance of the season Payne, a former teammate of Landry Shamet in Phoenix, netted a season-high 19 points — including 11 to help turn the game in the second quarter alongside fellow reserve guard Miles...

The 27-year-old Shamet, who made his only shot in garbage time Monday, was about to claim a roster spot — and a likely place in Thibodeau’s rotation — when he suffered a dislocated shoulder Oct. 15 against the Hornets. 

A nearly flawless OG Anunoby and the surging Knicks posted their ninth win in their past 11 games heading into a Christmas matinee.

The Nets have added a new injury to their extended list of unavailable players. 

The Nets connected on just 7 of 40 from 3-point range and committed 19 turnovers.

Quinnen Williams added that the organization’s latest losing season has been “really frustrating” for him because it started with such high expectations.

Losing games early and often usually forces NFL teams to abandon the running game, and that certainly has been true for the Jets this season.

The biggest question the Rangers need to be asking themselves is, "has this core run its course?"

Julius Randle was not as expansive with his answers as Donte DiVincenzo was about his first regular-season game facing the Knicks since being traded to the Timberwolves.

Donte DiVincenzo and teammate Julius Randle will face the Knicks in a game that counts for the first time Thursday night.

The NBA finally has set a date to resolve the legal dispute between the Knicks and the Raptors, but that won’t be until the summer of 2025. 

The Knicks’ pending visit to Minnesota obviously marks the return of Karl-Anthony Towns to Target Center, but it also will be the first time Julius Randle faces his former team.
