The Emirates NBA Cup is back for its third installment. Tournament play begins on Oct. 31 and will conclude with the championship game on Dec. 16 in Las Vegas.

Cooper Flagg appears to be figuring things out three games into his NBA career. The Dallas Mavericks rookie put together his best outing so far in a 139-129 win over the Toronto Raptors on Sunday. He dropped 22 points on 8-of-14 shooting, adding four rebounds, four assists and a block.

Philadelphia 76ers rookie VJ Edgecombe scored 34 points in his NBA debut on Wednesday, the most in franchise history and third-most in NBA history.

Julius Randle scored 30 points to lead the Minnesota Timberwolves past the Charlotte Hornets 122-105 on Saturday night, their first victory since All-Star Anthony Edwards was sidelined with an injury.

Donovan Mitchell scored a season-high 37 points, leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 117-109 win over the Atlanta Hawks.

Jalen Brunson and the New York Knicks fell to Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks, 121–111, on the road Tuesday, dropping to 2–2 on the season.

The NBA just wrapped up its second week of the 2025-26 season and, with that, fantasy basketball managers get a better grip on High Score and their rosters. Scoring slowed down a bit in Week 2 after we saw multiple players hit 80+ fantasy points to open the season.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 30 points and seven assists in three quarters, and the Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the New Orleans Pelicans 137-106 on Sunday to extend their season-opening winning streak to seven games.
