CHICAGO — Because this was not Angel Reese’s actual first return to her first professional basketball home, the welcome back Tuesday was a little muted. Just one fan hustled to floor level to hold up a sign a few feet from Reese when the Atlanta Dream emerged for stretching. Only one more displayed a sign behind the visitors’ bench. Hoots and whistles followed her official introduction — “At center, Angel Reese” — just before the 6 p.m. CT tipoff, but dissipated quickly. There was no in-game tri

Victor Wembanyama clearly got away with a cheap shot in Game 3, and the Knicks haven’t forgotten about it.

Knicks let Victor Wembanyama know exactly what they thought of him during Game 3.

I’ve never been much for horror films.
