HoopsHype puts together a list of every NBA sideline reporter for the 2024-25 NBA seasaon.
Sideline reporting is one of the coolest jobs in the NBA media world, as teams’ sideline reporters get to travel with the team for road games and cover pretty much every single regular-season game. They also do important work, getting to interview players and coaches during games, and giving fans behind-the-scenes access that they would not get otherwise.
Below, check out all of the sideline reporters covering the NBA in the 2024-25 season.

MVP is the most important individual accolade an NBA player can win, so we decided to put together a list of how legends did in MVP voting throughout their careers, ranking them by the number of seasons they received votes.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar owns the record for most MVPs for one player with six and it will be very hard to beat, but he’s not the leader in most seasons with MVP votes, which belongs to LeBron James with 19.
In case you’re wondering, Michael Jordan comes at No. 6 in this ranking, receiving votes in merely 13 seasons.
Check out the rest of these rankings below.
HoopsHype ranks the Top 10 player older than 40 years old in NBA history, including Karl Malone, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and more.
With four-time league MVP LeBron James about to turn 40 years old, we thought it would be a fun time to rank the Top 10 players in NBA history who competed at age 40 or beyond.
James will likely top this list himself by the end of 2025-26 – if not sooner – but for now, this is how we rank the best players to play past the big 4-0.
If you eat, sleep and breathe MMA, utilize our list of the best (and, let’s be honest: the worst!) MMA movies and TV shows of all time.
(This story was updated to add new information.)
The holiday season is here, and that means a little more down time for most people. With major MMA largely on hiatus for a few weeks, how will you fill in the blanks? Here’s a list of MMA movies and TV series you might want to spend some time with – including a new series from France that has some high-profile cameos.
(And if we left some off the list, don’t be offended. For the record, if a movie was purely karate or kickboxing or boxing, etc., we left it off – we’re looking for reasonably modern-era mixed martial arts/cagefighting kind of stuff to make the cut for this list. Sorry, old Bruce Lee and Jean Claude Van Damme flicks. We’ll save you for a different list.)
Numbers are heavily tilted toward modern-era players. Regardless, check out the players with the most All-Star votes in NBA history.
All-Star fan voting is a fun aspect of the NBA’s process for selecting the yearly recipients of the honor, even if it does lead to wonky results at times.
We recently decided to add up all of the All-Star fan votes submitted in league history to rank the players who have received the most in their careers.
Of course, the numbers are heavily tilted toward modern-era players since way more votes are cast by fans now. Also note that the NBA only started disclosing votes for all players (and not just the top-vote getters) in 2017.
Regardless, we thought the results would be interesting, and we were right.
Below, check out the players with the most All-Star votes in NBA history.

A look back at every Heisman Trophy winner since the award was first presented in 1935.
Editor’s note: this story has been updated to reflect new information.
The Heisman Trophy is the most coveted individual award in college football and is annually presented to the most outstanding player in a given season.
Over the years, there have been several winners who were running backs, wide receivers or tight ends, quarterbacks have dominated the Heisman race, especially this century, with some notable exceptions. In fact, there’s only ever been one defensive winner, Michigan cornerback Charles Woodson in 1997, and only one player to win it twice (and consecutively), Ohio State running back Archie Griffin in 1974 and 1975.

But in recent years, it’s been all about the quarterbacks with a passer winning the award 19 times since 2000 with the five exceptions: Alabama running backs Mark Ingram (2009) and Derrick Henry (2015), Alabama wide receiver DeVonta Smith (2020), USC running back Reggie Bush (2005) and Colorado wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter (2024).
Here’s a look back at every Heisman Trophy winner in chronological order since the award was first presented in 1935.

Quarterbacks tend to dominate the Heisman Trophy race now, but that wasn’t always the case.
Editor’s note: This list has been updated with new information.
The Heisman Trophy competition nowadays is usually dominated by quarterbacks since they’re often the biggest stars on their teams racking up jaw-dropping stats. However, way back in the day, running backs easily controlled this contest.
But it’s always fun and more interesting when the Heisman race has some wide receivers, running backs or defensive players in the mix, like recently with former Alabama wide receiver DeVonta Smith or former Michigan defensive end Aidan Hutchinson.
In December 2024, Colorado wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter became the 52nd non-quarterback to win the Heisman Trophy.
So while quarterbacks tend to control the Heisman conversation, here’s a look at all 52 Heisman winners who were not quarterbacks (in chronological order).

HoopsHype ranks the players who averaged the most games played per season in NBA history, playoffs included, to rank NBAs top iron men ever.
In this NBA era plagued by load management and resting during the regular season, it’s doubtful we’re going to see very many Iron Men. For instance, a player who played in 1,192 consecutive games appears on this list, and it’s hard to envision a modern player doing that.
Regardless, there is one active player – a star, at that – who finishes in the Top 10 of this ranking, who you’ll see just below.
Today, we added up games played between the regular season and playoffs to rank the players who appeared in the most games per season in NBA history.
