Multiple teams reportedly have kicked the tires on a potential trade for seldom-used Celtics big man Chris Boucher. The Atlanta Hawks, Philadelphia 76ers, Phoenix Suns and others have shown “exploratory interest” in Boucher, according to a report Wednesday from HoopsHype’s Michael Scotto. The 33-year-old Boucher has more than 400 games of NBA experience, most of them with the Toronto Raptors, and was expected to have a role in Boston’s new-look frontcourt after signing last summer. But he’s been buried at the bottom of the depth chart since early in the season. As of Wednesday, Boucher had not played in 29…
Former Patriots head coach Bill Belichick will not be a first-ballot Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee, sources told ESPN. Belichick is a six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach and two-time Super Bowl-winning assistant.

The “snub” for the legendary Patriots coach did not go unnoticed on social media, with speculation circulating as to why Belichick did not receive the needed 40-of-50 votes. So we turn it to Herald readers…
The New England Patriots will face off against the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl LX, and while the team has enjoyed a strong 2025 campaign, many folks are predicting they will get pummeled in this game. That group includes popular sports commentator Max Kellerman, who immediately disrespected New England after this matchup was set. The Patriots surprised everyone by rattling off a 14-3 record in the regular season to win the AFC East division. They then overcame a defensive gauntlet in the playoffs, defeating the Los Angeles Chargers, Houston Texans and Denver Broncos to punch their ticket to the Super…
Jayson Tatum’s lengthy visit with The Pivot podcast delivered a treasure trove of headlines. The part that stuck out most to us: Tatum displaying a heavy dose of self-awareness while admitting he’s been thinking a lot lately about how his return might impact a Boston Celtics team that has been entrenched near the top of the East standings for much of the 2025-26 season. He also seemed to offer a rare hint about the timing of an in-season return. At one point, Tatum noted, “If or when I do come back this season, they would have played 50 some-odd games…
By TIM REYNOLDS Caitlin Clark is headed to the NBA, at least for a couple of nights. NBC announced Tuesday that Clark — the Indiana Fever star with an enormous following within the game — is joining the network’s pregame coverage for its debut of “Sunday Night Basketball” this weekend when the Los Angeles Lakers play the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden. It’s set to be a two-night gig for Clark, who plans to return to NBC in another pregame role on March 29 when the Knicks visit the Oklahoma City Thunder. “There’s no more iconic figure in…
Good morning! MLB Network is conducting its annual exercise in ranking the best players at each position. Yesterday, they tackled left field, and the top of the list is quite interesting:Yes, the man that many Red Sox fans have been shipping out the door in imaginary trade scenarios all offseason is, according to MLB Network, the best left fielder in the game. Of course, the reason why so many fans are keen to ship him out is because of the guy that MLB has at number two on the list — not to mention a couple other guys who will…

The Los Angeles Rams fell short of the Super Bowl this season despite boasting one of the NFL’s best quarterbacks and one of the league’s most dangerous offenses. It makes sense that LA might look to bolster their defense this offseason with a big move. That’s probably why Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox just listed the Rams as the top landing spot for cornerback Marlon Humphrey. Knox believes Humphrey’s trade value is something like a 2026 4th-round pick and a conditional 2027 6th-round pick. “Humphrey’s future shouldn’t be heavily impacted by the 2026 draft,” Knox wrote on Monday. “However, his future…
