The Sacramento Kings have signed big man Viktor Lakhin to an Exhibit 10 contract. Following the NBA preseason, Lakhin is expected to join the Stockton Kings for the G League season.

The best way to start the year.

White played well last season, though his poor shooting garnered most of the attention, and he hopes to address it.

Caitlin Clark became the first player in league history to produce a points-assists double-double in the first half of a playoff game and finished with 27 points and 15 assists in a 99-89 win over the Aces to keep the Fever alive.

Caitlin Clark’s 2026 season gave the Indiana Fever plenty of reason to celebrate, as she had the best season of her young career. However, buried under the stuffed stat sheets and historic offensive numbers lies a statistic that the team would rather forget.

One dirty hit. Zero flags. One brutal upset.

Gabby Williams knows Paige Bueckers will score, so her plan is to wear her out.

The Fever guard is having a historic season and the best year of her career, all while pursuing a doctorate degree.

Heat forward Nikola Jovic, who signed a four-year, $62.4MM rookie scale extension ahead of the 2025/26 season, had a disappointing year, battling back problems and averaging just 7.3 points on .366/.269/.683 shooting in 47 regular season appearances.
