In a stunning move, the best basketball player on Earth, LeBron James, has decided to return to his hometown team, the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Series MVP Kawhi Leonard had 22 points and 10 rebounds, and the Spurs routed the Miami Heat, 104-87, in San Antonio on Sunday night to win the 2014 NBA Finals four games-to-one.

The Miami Heat and the San Antonio Spurs face each other for the NBA title for the second year in a row. The 2014 NBA Finals start Thursday in San Antonio. Here's a preview of what to expect:

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has imposed a lifetime ban on Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling following the racist comments he made on a phone conversation with his girlfriend.

He’s won an NBA title and an MVP award, but one thing Dirk Nowitzki probably won’t win is a Grammy.

Hey, Drake, we know you're a famous rapper and a big Miami Heat fan, but sometimes that just ain't enough to get access to the locker room after a team's win in the NBA championship. Sorry, dude!

LeBron James scored 37 points, and the Miami Heat won their second straight title by beating the San Antonio Spurs, 95-88, in a thrilling Game 7 of the 2013 NBA Finals in Miami on Thursday night.

There are a lot of athletes out there who give off the impression that they are all big and bad. People assume that because they play tough, that they are tough off the field. While in some cases that may be true, not everyone is like that, like Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade for example.

The NBA playoffs are in full swing. To keep the moral up, as your favorite team made not have made it this far or is about to lose another game, lets watch an NBA blooper reel. Nothing can heal a die hard fan's game day blues like some laughs.

Twelve-year NBA veteran center Jason Collins writes in an essay in Sports Illustrated: "I didn't set out to be the first openly gay man playing in a major American team sport. But since I am, I'm happy to start the conversation."

The NBA All-Star Game is turning into a big-time music event. Kesha, B.o.B and Ludacris will perform during the pregame concert, joining previously announced performers Alicia Keys, Ne-Yo and others who are also singing as part of All-Star Weekend.
