SAN FRANCISCO – The San Francisco Giants ended their series matchup with the Miami Marlins at Oracle Park for the season with a win on a cloudy Sunday afternoon in the city. The Giants had just beaten the Marlins Saturday, on April 25th, by a score of 6-2, evening the series between these two teams. Now, San Francisco leads the series 2-1 ahead of their matchups in Miami on June 19th-June 21st. The Giants beat the Marlins, 6-3, with Giants infielder Casey Schmit’s fourth home run of the season, bringing in three runs along with it in the bottom of the seventh stretch.

After losing the opener to the Miami Marlins, 9-4, the Giants would bounce back for the second game of the series and blast three home runs in that game. That game would tie the series and ultimately get the Giants’ hitting going for the next few games. San Francisco would put up 11 hits in that game as well, and also go 3-2 in their last five home games. With this win, this was the Giants’ first time since 2023 having won their home series against the Miami Marlins.

For this game, the Giants sent out RHP Landen Roupp (4-1, 2.28) to start and end the home series against the Miami Marlins. This was his sixth start of the season so far, and with just one career game under his belt against the Marlins in 2024, he threw a scoreless inning of relief for the Giants. Going on his fourth now, Roupp has won three straight starts for San Francisco and has thrown 17 strikeouts.

While the Marlins went with RHP Max Meyer (1-0, 3.96) to start the ballgame for Miami. The Miami Marlins have now completed the first half of their road trip of the season, with their finale being here at Oracle Park in San Francisco. Although the Marlins fell short Saturday against the Giants, they found some good news for their offense. With two stolen bases Saturday, the Marlins now have 31 stolen bases on the season and are just one of the two MLB clubs to have at least 30 or more (Milwaukee, 35).

The Miami Marlins Graham Pauley would get the game going with a homer and bring in two runs as well in the top of the second inning. The Marlins would hold an early 3-0 lead. Going into the bottom of the second inning, the Giants would get on the board from a throwing error by Miami’s shortstop Otto Lopez, and the score is now 3-1 heading into the third inning.

It would be solid pitching from both clubs as the score remained the same going into the sixth inning. However, what really got the Giants’ hitting going and the offense rolling was Jung Hoo Lee, who has been on an incredible hitting sequence the last few games. In fact, Lee would go 4-of-5 at bat this afternoon, and his impact and presence were vital for San Francisco’s comeback.

In the bottom of the sixth stretch, Giants Rafael Devers would get the offense going with a double on his bat, bringing in teammate Casey Schmitt to score. Then Drew Gilbert would get a single and bring in Devers for the score, and him being the tying run for the game. The crowd was back on their feet and roaring in the park as the comeback for the win was starting to happen.

With that, going into the bottom of the seventh inning. The score was still tied at 3-3 with the Giants at bat. Two runners are on base for San Francisco as Casey Schmitt walked up to the box. Schmitt would launch a 406-foot homerun and bring in three runs for the Giants as they take the lead for the first time in the afternoon, 6-3. Giants starting pitcher Landon Roupp would get subbed out during the eighth inning. The Giants would replace him with Erik Miller, and Miller would save the win, but end the game.

As Miller had no problem ending the game. Giants Roupp put Miller in a great position where Miller would only have to face off four batters for the day. So with that, the Giants’ defense pulled through and was able to get a win and close out Miami. The Giants are now 7-9 at home this season, as this would conclude the Giants’ homestands for a while.

RHP Landon Roupp would get the win and now go 5-1 with a 2.55 ERA. With Casey Schmitt’s big homer in the seventh and ultimately got the comeback win for the team, there was no doubt he would be the Player of the Game. The Giants will head east to Philadelphia, after a day off Monday, then the Giants will start off a three-game series against the Phillies on Tuesday, April 28th at Citizens Bank Ballpark, at 3:40 p.m. San Francisco won its three-game home series against Philly earlier this season, 2-1 Apr 6-8 at Oracle Park.

Starting pitchers for Tuesday for San Francisco RHP Tyler Mahle (1-3 ERA 5.26) for Philadelphia LHP Jesus Luzardo (1-3 ERA 6.91) first pitch 3:40pm PDT.

SAN FRANCISCO – After losing four games in a row, three of them at home, the Golden State Warriors were able to grab a Dub on the Sacramento Kings as Golden State celebrated Asian Heritage Night. This home game was their second-to-last home game, so the Warriors wanted to defend their home and hopefully end their last four games with wins, starting with this one. Also, this would be Golden State’s 605th consecutive sellout. The final score on this Tuesday evening was 110-105, with the Warriors winning by 5 points.

After missing 27 straight games (February 3–April 2) due to right patellofemoral discomfort syndrome, Stephen Curry returned to the starting lineup on April 5 against Houston (the Warriors were 9–18 in those games). Curry last played in a game before April 5 on January 30 against Detroit; he left the game with 4:08 remaining in the third quarter. At 8:38 in the first quarter, Curry came off the bench in a regular-season game for the first time since March 7, 2012, against Memphis, and for the seventh time in his career (Warriors 3-4 in those games).

The Golden State roster is still hurting from the team’s injuries. The Warriors sent out Patrick Spencer, Malevy Leons, Draymond Green, De’Anthony Melton, and Brandin Podziemski as their starters. This is Golden State’s second-to-last home game, and the teams’ third time seeing each other this season. The series for this season was tied entering this game, 1-1, but now the Warriors lead the series match-up, 2-1. These two teams last faced off on January 9th, 2026, here in Chase Center at the Bay. With Golden State winning by 34 points, 137-103.

The Sacramento Kings are also in the same situation as the Warriors with injuries. The team has 8 players out due to injury. So with that, the Kings started with Precious Achiuwa, Maxime Raynaud, Daeqwon Plowden, Devin Carter, and Nique Clifford. The Kings have been eliminated from the playoffs, and is doing their best to end the season with some wins.

Golden State Warriors guard Brandin Podziemski got the game from the free throw line after being fouled by Kings guard Nique Clifford. After that, both of the teams would go back and forth on exchanging buckets. With the Kings and Warriors both shooting the same on the floor. Golden State Warrior Stephen Curry would come off the bench again , after this game, just being his second game returning from injury.

After the first quarter, the Kings held the lead by one point, 26-25. One thing about these two teams is that the games will always be close to a certain point. The Kings and Warriors were shooting about the same on the floor in all categories. Sacramento and Golden State’s playing style and performance were the exact same, and already there were ten lead changes.

Halfway through the second quarter, the Warriors were starting to get comfortable, seeing some shots go in, and being cautious with the ball. Sacramento shooting above 50% in their categories is keeping them in, but Golden State hit some big three-pointers to give them the momentum. Also, the Warriors’ transition and hustle were big factors on how the score was starting to change.

The Warriors went into the final minutes making five three-pointers, two of which would end up being four point play conversions by Stephen Curry. His shots from deep are what helped push the Warriors’ lead even more. By halftime, the score was 66-53, and Golden State led over Sacramento. At the moment, the Warriors were being lead by guard Stephen Curry with his 14 points, three rebounds, and going 3-of-6 from deep.

Throughout the third quarter, both teams would have a big jump in their turnovers, especially Golden State. The Warriors would go from five turnovers to 16 turnovers. However, both teams took advantage of each other’s turnovers as both teams had pick up 19 points from it. The Warriors would shoot eight three pointers, but went cold, as they only made just one of them. Golden State would just drop 19 points in the third quarter.

The Kings’ resilience and hustle were their factor on how they kept them in the game. King’s guard Killian Hayes would hit his third three-pointer of the night. With that shot going in right before the end of the third quarter, the Warriors would hold on to the lead by just four points, 85-81. Although the Kings only made two three-pointers in the third as well, Sacramento’s presence in the paint helped a lot as they had more than the Warriors in there, the Kings would have 40 points compared to the Warriors’ 34 points.

At the start of the fourth quarter, the Kings were pressuring more on defense and showing more of their intensity as they were able to get within two points. By the eight minute mark, the Kings were up by two points, 91-89. The Kings were able to see more shots go in than the Warriors, and just fight for more rebounds than them when it mattered to help solidify their lead.

Entering the last three minutes of play, the score was 104-100, the Kings lead by three points. “The Battle of NorCal” never disappoints wherever its being played at, whether in San Francisco or Sacramento. As Kings and Warriors exchange three-pointers in back-to-back sequences. Warriors Brandin Podziemski would hit a 24-foot three pointer that gave Golden State the lead, and was ultimately the dagger on the Kings. After that, the Warriors would run out the clock and take the win.

Out of the nine players that Golden State played, six of them were in double digits. However, it would be De’Anthony Melton leading the team tonight with his 21 points, four rebounds, and five assists. In his second game back, Stephen Curry dropped 17 points, five rebounds, and two assists to get the Warriors’ 22nd home win this season. The Warriors would end the night with 17 made three-pointers.

The Golden State Warriors return to Chase Center on Thursday evening and will host the Los Angeles Lakers. That game will be the final home regular season game for the Warriors, so Golden State again will defend their home, and will try to get a win for Dub Nation in the home finale. The Kings and Warriors will see each other one more time, but in Sacramento this Friday on April 10th in Golden 1 Center.

SAN FRANCISCO – Following San Francisco’s first home win Friday, the team hoped to extend its winning streak to two on Good Friday and San Jose State Night. However, the New York Mets had other plans as it was their turn to make it a big hitting night here in Oracle Park. The Mets would bring in 15 hits Friday night and get the win. The final score would be 10-3.

The winning pitcher would be the New York Mets pitcher Nolan McLean, who almost got himself a perfect game through six innings. San Francisco Giants pitcher Tyler Mahle would take the loss in this game, as he gave up five runs and eight hits for the night.

Both of these teams had different direction performances. The Giants had a great hitting sequence yesterday, but struggled tonight and only got five hits. While on the other side, the Mets’ offense struggled yesterday but prospered overnight and came out swinging. The Mets would tally up 15 hits tonight.

The New York Mets strike first in the first inning with a couple of runs scored by Mets Francisco Lindor and Bo Bichette, making the score 2-0. Giants pitcher Tyler Mahle was having some early struggles, and the Giants’ defense was letting line drives in, getting players on the bases. Also, the Giants had a quick 1-2-3 batting order and weren’t able to respond to the Mets’ hot start.

However, the Mets would go down a man in this game as Juan Soto was removed from Friday night’s game with right calf tightness. Soto will be replaced by left outfielder Tyrone Taylor. Soto went 1-1 in just playing the 1st inning. Though that wasn’t slowing down the Met’s defense, especially thanks to their starting pitcher, Nolan McLean.

The Mets were feeling determined to bounce back after that Game 1 loss to the Giants yesterday. So starting McLean was their clear choice, espcially that Nolan McLean, through his first 9 MLB starts: 2.21 ERA, 65 Ks. The only other pitchers to reach those marks since ER became an official statistic in 1913: Paul Skenes (2024), Orel Hershiser (1984), Jose DeLeon (1983), and Fernando Valenzuela (1981). Elite company to be in for McLean. Just after the first two innings, he would make the Giants go back-to-back, on a 1-2-3 batting order.

Top of the fourth, the Mets would see some success on their offense. As Mets Marcus Semien would get himself a homer and an RBI. The score would now be 4-0. Then Mets Francisco Alvarez would join the party, as he would get himself a solo homerun, making the score 5-0. Finally, once the Giants got the bleeding stopped, it was their turn at bat. Nothing much has changed, though, as the Mets’ defense and Nolan McLean have been a problem all night for the Giants.

By the top of the sixth, the Giants called it a night for their pitcher, Tyler Mahle. Mahle went four strikeouts, two HR, five Runs, and five hits. San Francisco would bring in RHP JT Brubaker. With that, the Giants’ offense was still not scoring. After a great hitting sequence last night, the Giants were struggling to make some contact with the ball. McLean is still in the game, pitching; he has four strikeouts, and is at 78 pitches.

San Francisco would finally get a hit, and it was a big one. Coming from the Giants, Willy Adames, who would hit a ground-rule double to right-center field. He would bring in a run, with Patrick Bailey scoring and Harrison Bader on third base. A much-needed turnaround is needed for the Giants, but the Mets would make the call to end McLean’s night after that hit from them. Nolan McLean was so close to giving him a perfect game. The Mets would bring in LHP Brooks Raley with just one out in the bottom of the sixth.

Mets pitcher Brooks Raley’s fastball would get by his catcher, Francisco Alvarez, which would bring in a run for the Giants. The score would now be 5-2, but the Mets’ defense would kick in and end that stretch for the Giants. So, top of the seventh comes, and Mets Francisco Alvarez made up for his mistake on letting the fastball get by him, and got a run in for San Francisco. So Alvarez decided and wanted to get his second homer of the night at 401ft distance, pushing the Mets’ lead, 6-2.

Still in the top of the seventh, the Mets just kept coming at the Giants. They were able to get two hits, dropping them right in front of the outfielders. So with the Mets’ smart placement hitting, they would get a couple of runs, making the score 8-2. So San Francisco responded by pulling out JT Brubaker, ending him at two strikeouts, one HR, and three hits. The Giants would put in LHP Matt Gage with one out, but he goes to work and gets his first strikeout on his first batter and stops the inning.

After the eighth inning, and going into the final inning of the game. The Giants got a run in to be down just five runs; the score was 8-3. However, that wasn’t enough to start the ninth inning. Mets Brett Baty would get a double down leftfield and an RBI, making the score 9-3. The Giants made one last pitcher change, so the Mets decided to get one last run in as well. By the bottom of the ninth, it was 10-3. So with the Giants one last time at bat, nothing came out of it as the New York Mets would win and tie the series this season, 1-1.

Once more, for the third time this week, the San Francisco Giants will host the New York Mets Saturday night at 6:05 p.m. back in Oracle Park. The Mets will send out RHP Clay Holmes (1-0) as their starting pitcher. The Giants will counter with RHP Landen Roupp, also (1-0), as their starting pitcher. This game again will be broadcasted on NBCS BA.

SAN FRANCISCO – The Giants get their first home win of the season Thursday night as they beat the New York Mets in the first game of their series 7-2. After just getting one run in their entire season home-opener against the New York Yankees, and losing their first three home games. San Francisco would put up 13 hits and seven runs in Thursday evening’s game on Sacramento State Night. The Giants would start off the month with a win.

The San Francisco Giants returned home Wednesday after a four-day trip to San Diego. The Giants would take the first two games against the Padres, but fell to them Wednesday, finishing the series 2-1. The Giants were hoping to take some of their best moments from San Diego and bring them to their home ballpark to get a win for the fans on Thursday evening.

After getting his first loss from the New York Yankees in the team’s season home-opener series. Giants pitcher Robbie Ray would start for the team again, this time, against the New York Mets. Robbie Ray has gone 4-2 with a 3.11 ERA and 46 strikeouts against the Mets. His last matchup against the Mets was dated back in August 1st, 2025. He pitched seven innings, six of those were scoreless, and striking gout six.

Giants left-hand pitcher Robbie Ray goes up against Mets Francisco Lindor and walks him to get the ball game going. Then, just two batters later, Mets Bo Bichette helps put New York on the board first with a double to left field, bringing in Mets Juan Soto to score. Just 26 pitches later, the Mets’ Luis Robert Jr. flies out, ending the top of the first.

With the Giants’ turn at bat, shortstop Willy Adames starts San Francisco off, but gets caught on a slider and strikes out. Left-hand Mets pitcher David Peterson starts off his first batter with a strikeout. Next in-fielder Rafael Devers, who has three career homers against the Mets, sneaks a single for himself. Setting up Luis Arraez to hit a triple, bringing in Devers to tie the game. Next, Matt Chapman would join the party with a double, bringing in Arraez to take back an early lead, 2-1. Matt Chapman would also score when Jung Hoo Lee reached on pitcher David Peterson’s failed catch error on trying to get an assist from first baseman Mark Vientos. After that, the Giants would reach 3 outs, ending their hot start with the score, 3-1, San Francisco leading.

Mets Mark Vientos took the Giants’ hot start personally and got under a slider from Ray and got himself a solo homerun at 406 FT. The score is now 2-3, top of the second at this time. However, Ray and the Giants would be able to hold the Mets off and end the top of the second. So Giants catcher, Daniel Susac, starts the batting order and gets himself a single. Daniel’s hit was his first in the MLB. With the Mets having some early catching errors, the Giants were able to get their batters on the bases. However, a double play and a strikeout later would end the Giants’ second inning stretch.

At the top of the third, Mets Francisco Lindor is back and starting it off once again in the game, and once again was walked for the second time. Once again, Ray’s slider and changeup would get him a couple of strikeouts and great outfield coverage from Harrison Bader. The Giants stand tall on their defense. The momentum shifted to the Giants when it was their turn at bat.

The Giants would be able to put up two runs in their third inning stretch. No outs, runners on all bases, so Jung Hoo Lee understood the assignment. He would do a sacrifice fly out, and bring in Heliot Ramos. Then Harrison Bader would do another sacrifice play to bring in Luis Arraez to get them that second run in to score. However, the Mets’ defense would kick in and get their third outs. By then, the score was 5-2.

At the bottom of the fifth, New York would shut down David Peterson for the night. The Mets would bring out left hand pitcher Sean Manaea, on his first batter up with Daniel Susac, he would walk Susac. Runners on first and second, Mets Manaea was in an awkward position, and Giants Casey Schmitt gets his cutter for a single line drive, and Schmitt gets an RBI Thursday night. The score is now 6-2, with Manaea able to get a strikeout as their 3rdout.

96 pitchers, seven strikeouts, 2 ER’s, and a 3.38 ERA, Giants pitcher Robbie Ray would be shut down at the top of the sixth for the team. Oracle Park would send off Robbie Ray with a standing ovation. San Francisco would bring in Ryan Walker with having one out to his count from ray. Walker, on his first batter, is a strikeout, followed by a pop-up to center field.

Giants were able to put up a run with Rafael Devers getting a homer in for the home crowd. That homer was his first one of the season as he pushed the score to 7-2. After that, the Giants weren’t able to get back on base as the inning closed out. Top of the seventh, the Giants would change pitchers again, this time to right-hand pitcher Blade Tidwell. Giants’ defense would get a double play then a ground out to end the top of the seventh.

In the last three innings of the game, both teams’ defense was able to put up easy three outs in that stretch. Ultimately sealing the Giants’ dub for the home crowd. Giants pitcher Robbie Ray would get his first win of the season Thursday night, and also Giants Blade Tidwell would get his first-ever career save. Also, Giants Casey Schmitt and Daniel Susac would go perfectly at bat, going 4-4 in the box. This was Daniel Susac’s first-ever MLB career start, a homecoming victory for San Francisco.

The San Francisco Giants and New York Mets will continue where they left off, Friday (4/3/26), right back in Oracle Park at 7:15 p.m. The Giants will send out RHP Tyler Mahle, who is 1-0, to go up against the Mets’ RHP Nolan Mclean, who is 0-0. The game will be televised on NBCS BA.

Arizona Heads to the Final Four in 25 Years, Beating Purdue, 79-64

SAN JOSE – The Madness of March is over, as SAP Center welcomed 4 programs to the South Bay, but only saw only one of them would come out victorious. Between the No.1 Arizona Wildcats and the No.2 Purdue Boilermakers, which both are champions to their conference. It would be the Arizona Wildcats moving on to Indianapolis with a 15 point win, and these dangerous Wildcats have now won 13 games in a row.

Arizona Wildcats went with guards Jaden Bradley, Brayden Burries, forwards Koa Peat, Ivan Kharchenkov, and center Motiejus Krivas for their Elite Eight game. The Wildcats will be hoping to make it to the Final Four for the first time since 2001 and the fifth time in program history. This is their 12th Elite Eight appearance overall and their first since 2015.

Purdue Boilermakers sent out guards Braden Smith, Fletcher Loyer, forwards Trey Kaufman-Renn, Oscar Cluff, and center C.J. Cox on the teams Elite Eight run. Purdue has a 0-9 record against No. 1 seeds overall and is seeking its first victory over one. Purdue will be trying for its fourth Final Four overall and its second in the last three seasons.

After the first 7 minutes of play, Arizona was in the lead with 5 points, 17-12. Arizona went on a 8-2 scoring run for 3 minutes. The Wildcats saw a lot of their points in the paint which was giving them early control of the game. Arizona scored 12 points in the paint to their now, 19-12 lead. It should come as no surprise that Purdue is already having issues with Arizona’s size and agility. Oscar Cluff is holding his own so far, but if the Boilermakers don’t find extra help from the players down in the block, the Wildcats will dominate inside.

4 lead changes and 6 ties already happened 15 minutes into this game. Both teams are trying to send their school to the Final Four with the finishing line being just a couple of games away. With 3 minutes left of the 1st half the score was, 30-27, Purdue leads now. After a bad shooting performance in their Sweet 16 game, Purdue has shotten the ball better. Last game int he 1st half, Boilermakers only had 3 three-pointers in the 1st half, but tonight they had 6 three-pointers already. While Arizona is seeing some struggles as they only made 1 three-pointer so far out of 6 attempts.

Halftime, Purdue is leading Arizona by 7 points, 38-31. The Big-10 champions, Purdue, hit 7 three-pointers in the 1st half that got them feeling great heading into the lockers. While the Big-12 champions, Arizona, was struggling on the field. Only making 1 three-pointer would go a long way and a reason on why they’re down at halftime. While the Wildcats are struggling from deep as they only got 1 deep ball to go in.

The Boilermakers have gone on to lose after leading at the half just twice this season: Jan. 24 against Illinois and Feb. 26 against Michigan State. So with the start of the second half, the pressure for Purdue to win the game is on. Vice versa with Arizona as they started the final half playing catch up. Which Arizona really turned up the heat on Purdue and took it to them.

Wildcats were able to knock down 3 three-pointers in the second half, which was a lot better than the just the 1 three-pointer they made in the first half. The more this game goes on, the more the talent gap between Arizona and Purdue becomes clear. Arizona is more prepared to play in transition when the game breaks down, which has happened more often in the second half. The Wildcats are on the verge of making it to their first Final Four in 25 years.

In the second half, Arizona played with an entirely different feeling of urgency. At both ends of the floor, there are differences in physicality and intensity. However, the two crucial figures: Arizona had six turnovers in the first half but zero in the second. After a 7-14 first half, Purdue is now 0-4 3PT. By the 3 minute mark, Arizona had a 15 point lead on Purdue.

Ultimately, Arizona wrote their story to the Final Four in San Jose as they would win the game against the No.2 Purdue Boilermakers, 79-64. Arizona Wildcats will head to Indianapolis, and wait on the winner of the No.1 Michigan vs No.6 Tennessee. That game will be played on Saturday, April 4th, 2026.

Warriors Hold Off Wizards on Filipino Heritage Night, 131-126

SAN FRANCISCO – It wasn’t just any other ordinary Friday night at Chase Center. In this Warriors game, the team was celebrating their Filipino Heritage Night at their last home of the month. So Golden State ended the last Friday of the month with another Dub to their nation. The Warriors would win the regular season series with a 5-point win over the Wizards, 131-126. This win is now the Warriors’ 3rd straight in a row, going 3-7 in their last 10 games.

The Warriors went with guards Brandin Podziemski, Will Richard, forwards Gui Santos, Draymond Green, and center Kristaps Porzingis as their starting five. In the Dub over the Nets on Wednesday, Gui Santos scored a career-high 31 points. Santos was 4-for-6 from three and 11-for-16 from the field. He scored 15 points on 5-for-7 shooting with three 3-pointers in just the third quarter, making up over half of his total points.

Wizards sent out guards Bub Carrington, Tre Johnson, forwards Bilal Coulibaly, Leaky Black, and center Alex Sarr as their starting five, here, in San Francisco. In the Wizards’ most recent win over the Utah Jazz, Julian Reese recorded a career-high 26 points and 17 rebounds in just 30 minutes. Given that Reese’s sister, Angel Reese, is a top WNBA rebounder, it looks like rebounding runs in the family.

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry has now missed 24 games for the team as he is still out due to a bone bruising on his right knee. The team announced during head coach Steve Kerr’s pregame conference. Curry is making good progress coming back from an evaluation. He hopes to be able to play in a live 5-on-5 scrimmage in the upcoming days. With not many games left in the season, the Warriors are hoping to see Curry return for the Play-In Tournament starting on April 14th.

Also, Golden State head coach Steve Kerr said in his pregame conference as well, “We won the last couple of games, but we turned it over 24, 25 times in each of them. We’re not going anywhere by doing that. We have to clean that up, and then that impacts our defense dramatically.” So, with that, the team was on all 10 toes and did exactly that. As in the first quarter, the team had no turnovers at all.

Warriors big man, Kristaps Porzingis, scored Golden State’s first points of the night with a three-pointer. After seeing that first shot going. Porzingis would have himself a quarter that would rub off on the team and took them off to a great start of the game. Porzingis would have himself 11 points, 2 rebounds, and 1 assist just in the 1st quarter. With that, the Warriors would also go on to make 7 three-pointers in the 1st as well, and also held a 15-point lead once already. Washington would be down 13 points after the 1st, 38-25.

Halfway through the 2nd quarter, Washington’s shots started to fall in and was able to cut the lead to 9 points. Wizards were able to get in the paint to get themselves some easy buckets, but the Warriors’ home court advantage makes the visiting team struggle from deep. Wizards were 4-for-16 (25%) from deep while the Warriors were able to get 10-of-20 (50%) from deep.

At half, the Warriors played great in all categories and aspects of the 1st half. Golden State had a 12-point lead at halftime, 72-60. The Warriors were shooting above 50% in all of their shooting categories with just 3 turnovers, and were a big reason why they’re holding this lead. Also, Golden State forward Gui Santos leads the lead at half with 14 points, 2 rebounds, and 3 assists. Santos is also perfect from deep, going 2-of-2 with the team finishing 12 three-pointers at half as well.

The start of the 3rd quarter took place 4 minutes in the Warriors have only made 2 shots. While the Wizards came out with some magic in them and were able to get shots to drop. At this point, the score was 76-73, and the Warriors were now trying to hold the lead, but Wizards guard Bub Carrington would hit a corner three to tie the game, 76-76.

Wizards and Warriors would spend the rest of the 3rd going back and forth on exchanging buckets. With 2 lead changes in this quarter, Washington would now hold the lead at the end of the 3rd quarter, 94-92. Wizards forward Bilal Coulibaly would drop 10 points himself in the quarter to get them the lead. Also, for the 1st half, the Warriors would make 5 or more three-pointers in the first two quarters. In the 3rd quarter, the team was only able to make 4 shots from deep, while Washington was able to knock down 6 three-pointers in the 3rd.

Washington would also finish the game without center Alex Sarr, who received 4 personal fouls in the 3rd quarter. He had 2 fouls coming back from halftime, and now ends the night with 6 fouls, 8 points, and 10 rebounds. So with 3 minutes into the last quarter, the Wizards still had the lead with 2 points, 101-99.

With 5 minutes 40 seconds left in the game, Warriors forward Gui Santos gets a three-point play to drop after being fouled on a layup and getting the and-1 to drop. His points would tie the game at 111-111. Then, the next possession, Player of the Game, Warriors Kristaps Porzingis, would get fouled and sent to the line. His two shots would give them the lead, 113-11.

As the game clock was winding down. The Warriors were able to lock in and focus on their shot selection to help them run away with the win in this one. The final score would be 131-126. Golden State was led by center Kristaps Porzingis with 28 points

The Warriors will play all seven regular season games in California, starting with a five-game home stand in April, but one on the road in Denver. They will finish the season against the Kings in Sacramento and the Clippers in Los Angeles. So with that, the Golden State will play its last away game of the month against the Denver Nuggets on Sunday, March 29th, 2026, at 7 p.m. in Ball Arena. This will also conclude the regular-season series between the Nuggets and the Warriors.

SAN JOSE – Just right after a crazy ending to the game between Purdue and Texas, SAP Center welcomed the 2nd game of the Sweet 16 West Region Tournament Games. The No.1 Arizona Wildcats vs. the No.4 Arkansas Razorbacks. This is their 2nd ever meeting in the NCAA Tournament, with Arkansas winning the last matchup in 1994 in the Final Four. With the Sweet 16, the road leads to the Elite Eight, and once again, the Razorbacks and Wildcats cross paths in this March of Madness. Arizona gave a show to the South Bay as they beaten Arkansas, 109-88.

Arizona is making its 40th all-time appearance in the NCAA Tournament. With this win, Arizona not only reaches its 35th win of the season but secured their spot to come back on Saturday evening for the Elite Eight and will face off against the No.2 Purdue Boilermakers. This will be the Wildcats 23rd trip to the Elite Eight in school history.

No.1 Arizona Wildcats started with guards Jaden Bradley, Brayden Burries, forwards Ivan Kharchenkov, Koa Peat, and center Motiejus Krivas. Arizona’s all-time record in the NCAA Tournament went to 64-38 after getting a couple of wins down in SoCal area, San Diego. This was the Wildcats 16th appearance in the Sweet 16, but their fourth in five seasons with head coach Tommy Lloyd. Arizona isn’t a stranger down here in San Jose, as this was their third NCAA Tournament appearance in San Jose (2002,2017).

No.4 Arkansas Razorbacks started with guards Meleek Thomas, Darius Acuff Jr., forwards Trevon Brazile, Malique Ewin, and Billy Richmond III. Arkansas is enjoying its trip to the sweet 16, as this is the school’s 16th NCAA Sweet 16 and its 5th in a six-year span. The Razorbacks are being lead by head coach John Calipari who’s made quite a resume in the tournament. Coach Calipari is playing in his 17th NCAA Sweet 16 & his second straight. Calipari’s Sweet 16 record was impressive, but Arizona’s performance was too much for him and his team. His record is now 12-5 in the Sweet 16.

After the first 12 seconds, the Wildcats strike first on the Razorbacks with a layup from guard Brayden Burries. From there, it seemed like the whole 1st half was all Arizona. As they held the lead pretty much the entire 1st half. The two stud freshmen, Arkansas Darius Acuff Jr. and Arizona Brayden Burries, face off to close out this thrilling Thursday of games.

10 minutes into the first half of the game, Arkansas was starting to see some early struggles shooting from deep. Arizona has been seeing great success in its offensive possession. Wildcats are comfortably getting in the paint and protecting the paint with 2 blocks already in this game. So with that, Arizona would get on an early roll here in San Jose.

With 2 minutes left, Arkansas was down 13 points to Arizona, 50-37. The Razorbacks shooting has held them back and been their reason why they’re trailing. They were shooting 45% from the floor, but with a bad 17% from deep. While a hot team from the desert like Arizona, those missed three-pointers are big in playing the Wildcats. So, on that, Arizona went on a roll and saw a 15-point lead at one point on Arkansas.

At halftime, the Arizona Wildcats would lead the Arkansas Razorbacks by 11 points, 54-43. Arizona’s shooting is showing why they’re one of the best schools to take the West Region. They’re shooting a high 65% from the floor, going 18-of-28, just missing 10 shots on the floor the whole 1st half. The Wildcats are the first team to have 50+ points before halftime in multiple games within a men’s NCAA tournament since 2017. While Arkansas is hanging on, its problem is not hitting its shots and not being aggressive. The Razorbacks end the 1st half on 2-of-12 from deep at a low 17%.

The 2nd half was pure domination for Arizona. The Wildcats just proved to be too much for the Razorbacks. After the first 8 minutes, the Wildcats didn’t miss a shot in their possessions. A huge way to come back from where you left off in the 1st half. However, with his 13th point of the game, Darius Acuff Jr. has totaled 73 points across his first three NCAA tournament games, passing De’Aaron Fox for the most points scored by an SEC freshman in their first three career NCAA tournament appearances.

With the big and tough performance from Razorback freshman star Darius Acuff Jr., Arkansas found itself down by 21 points just 7 minutes in the 2nd half. Arizona is pulling away from Arkansas in San Jose, holding that commanding 78-57 lead. The lead feels unreal to be in the Sweet 16, and the home travel team-Arizona crowd, is here and energized, chanting “U-of-A” as the Wildcats were getting closer to securing their spot in the Elite 8.

Now, with 7 minutes left of the game, nothing much has changed. Except the Razorbacks were starting to play frustrated from the performance and how the game is going. Arkansas would start to commit fouls, with some turning into a flagrant foul. The lead was still 20 points to Arizona, 92-72.

As the game reached the final 2 minutes, it was pretty clear who had won this game. Arizona is holding a 23 point lead. The Wildcats controlled the rest of the game and slowly played the clock out to officially get the win. With that, the final score was 109-88. Arizona will head to the Elite Eight for the first time since 2015 with its head coach, Tommy Lloyd.

Arizona Wildcat freshman Brayden Burries led the team with his 23 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 assists. Burries and the Wildcats will host the No.2 Purdue Boilermakers right back in the SAP Center on March 28th, 2026, at 5:49 p.m. in San Jose, CA. The final game that San Jose will host, as the winner of the Saturday game, will take the road to the Final Four.

PURDUE WINS ON PUTBACK, 79-77, Advances to Elite Eight over No.11 Texas Longhorns

Purdue Boilermakersguard (#2) Fletcher Loyer shoots a 24-foot three-pointer jumper to start the 2nd half between the Texas Longhorns in the West Regional ‘Sweet 16’ matchup on March 26th, 2026, in SAP Center at San Jose, CA

By Michael Villanueva

SAN JOSE – The Longhorns and Boilermakers have had a long history between them since before tonight’s “Sweet 16” matchup in the NCAA March Madness Tournament. However, this game and performance from both schools will go down as another historical game in the all-time series. Purdue and Texas would go back and forth on Thursday afternoon, with 16 lead changes, tied 10 times, and with only one team having a large lead of just 7 points. However, Purdue Trey Kaufman-Renn’s tip-in with less than a second left lifts the No.2 Purdue to a 79-77 win over No.11 Texas.

No.2 Purdue started with guards Braden Smith, Fletcher Loyer, C.J. Cox, forward Trey Kaufman-Renn, and center Oscar Cluff. The Boilmakers hope this squad can send them to their third Elite Eight in the last seven years. Purdue and Texas are set to face each other for the seventh time in their series history, with the Longhorns currently holding a 4-2 lead. Their upcoming matchup will be their first meeting since Purdue’s 81-71 victory over Texas in the second round of the 2022 NCAA Tournament.

No.11 Texas Longhorns started with guards Tramon Mark, Jordan Pope, forwards Dailyn Swain, Camden Heide, and center Matas Vokietaitis. Longhorns came into this game feeling really good with the turnaround theyb had this season. Texas Longhorns head coach Sean Miller is making his ninth Sweet 16 appearance in 21 seasons as a head coach. With a 25-13 record across 14 NCAA Tournament appearances, Miller ranks ninth among active Division I coaches for the most career NCAA Tournament wins.

Purdue came out at Texas right at tip-off, feeling the hype from the crowds in San Jose. Purdue guard Fletcher Loyer started the game off with back-to-back three pointers to get the Boilermakers on their feet and an early 6-0 lead. However, there’s a reason this Texas team has made it this far in the tournament. As Texas guard Tramon Mark gets going.

Texas guard Tramon Mark would get the Longhorns after Purdue’s hot shooting start. In fact, Tramon Mark locked in for Texas and took over as their main scorer in the rest of the 1st half. He is shooting efficiently, going 4-for-5 from the field, including two three-pointers, and leads all scorers with 10 points. The Longhorns hold a 21-18 lead with 10:48 remaining in the first half. Then, a minute later, Mark would eventually have half of Texas’ points.

The Boilermakers have been creating good scoring opportunities, especially in the paint with 18 points, largely thanks to Braden Smith, the NCAA’s newly crowned assist leader. Purdue is 2-of-7 from three-point range but has missed several open looks. Their two three-pointers came right at tip-off, and they struggled from deep afterward, missing nine straight attempts. After Fletcher Loyer made two early threes, the drought ended when he knocked down another late in the half. At the 1:03 mark, Loyer leads all scorers with 13 points, and Purdue holds a narrow 37-35 lead.

By halftime, Purdue would see themselves with a 4 point lead, 39-35. Purdue is able to withhold Texas hustle and athleticism by outrebounding them 18 to 13, and the Boilers shot 53.1 percent from the field were a big factor on how they’re holding the lead. However, Texas was able to knock down more three-pointers than Purdue since the Boilermakers three-pointers only came from guard Fletcher Loyer. The Longhorns ended the 1st half with 6-of-16 three-point shooting.

Texas guard Tramon Mark made his name and presence felt here in the first game of the Sweet 16 matchups. He picked up right where he left off from his 1st half performance, and knocked down some big shots. Mark reached the 2,000 career points milestone through his 19th point, spanning six seasons with Houston, Arkansas, and Texas. He finished the first half with 12 points, marking his highest-scoring first half in any NCAA tournament game. This tournament appearance is his 13th across his career at Texas and Houston. Texas leads 49-45 at the 15:37 mark.

Purdue was still able to see some success even though they still weren’t able to make any three-pointer in the 2nd half with 10 minutes left. Purdue’s defense locked in as Texas made 3 costly turnovers in the final minutes. Also, the Longhorns would also pick up some crucial fouls that gave Purdue trips to the line. By then, the Boilermakers were up by 1 point in the final minute of the game. There have been over 15 lead changes in this close game.

With just 11.9 seconds left in the game, Texas ties it up, 77-77, after Longhorn forward Dailyn Smith drives to the basket hard and makes his layup, with the foul, converting it to a three-point play. He would get sent to the line and tie it up from there. Then Purdue guard Braden Smith would drive it to the basket, miss his layup, but Purdue’s big man, Trey Kaufman-Renn, would tip it in and win the game for Purdue, 79-77.

Purdue Boilermakers now advance to the Elite Eight. They will take on the winner between of No.1 Arizona Wildcats and No.4 Arkansas Razorbacks. The Elite Eight game will be played right back in here at SAP Center in San Jose, CA, on March 28th, 2026.

Golden State on 2-game Winning Streak, & beat the Brooklyn Nets on Latino Heritage Night, 109-106.

SAN FRANCISCO – With their 600th straight sellout against the Brooklyn Nets at Chase Center Wednesday night, the Warriors have extended a franchise record. The streak started on December 18, 2012, against the then-New Orleans Hornets. Golden State is now the sixth-longest in NBA history & the second-longest active streak. (Miami Heat is the first-longest active streak) The team was also celebrating Latino Heritage Night, as Golden State would win this one in a nail-biter, 109-106.

The Warriors are now on a two-game winning streak after going 2-8 in their last 10 games. The Golden State Warriors are entering their final games of the season and are making maximum efforts to secure a spot in the postseason. Injuries have been a “huge problem and loss,” in the words of Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr. So with that, this win on Wednesday night was a big confidence booster and another win column to the record. The Warriors hope to have a .500 or higher record as they move to 35-38.

Golden State started guards Brandin Podziemski, De’Anthony Melton, forwards Gui Santos and Draymond Green, and center Kristaps Porzingis. Gui Santos will be replacing guard Moses Moody after a scary injury just two days ago. He suffers from a left patellar tendon rupture, and the team will announce more on his injury and status in the following days. However, fans can expect to have lost both of the team wings this season due to injuries. A huge loss for the team as their regular season is reaching its final games.

The Brooklyn Nets started with guards Ben Saraf, Drake Powell, Terance Mann, forward Ziaire Williams, and center Nic Claxton. The Nets are missing their big scorer forward, Michael Porter Jr., who is out for the game due to a left hamstring strain. Center Nic Claxton has been leading the team with his 11.8 points per game and averaging 7 rebounds per game. This young squad hasn’t had much to celebrate this season, but came into Chase Center on Wednesday hoping to end their 8-game losing streak.

In the first half, the Warriors’ shooting and turnovers were the reasons the Nets were able to see early success. By the end of the 1st quarter, Golden State would have 10 turnovers, but was shooting at 50% in all categories. The Warriors were able to stay in the game, but could’ve seen better results on the scoreboard if they were more careful with the ball.

Also in the 2nd quarter, the Warriors went cold, especially from deep. The team would find themselves going 1-of-10 from deep, and with 5 turnovers. This performance wasn’t gonna hold up, especially playing in your own home. So the Warriors went to the paint and had their forwards surround the basket to get easy second chance points.

At halftime, the Warriors are down to the Nets by 8 points, 58-50. The Warriors are dominating and proving they can get rebounds against this young Nets team. However, Golden State had 15 turnovers in the first half. Brooklyn was able to use those possessions to their advantage, and at one point. The Nets had a 13-point lead on the Warriors. Warriors center Porzingis is leading the way so far with his 13 points, 3 rebounds, and 1 assist.

At the start of the 4th quarter, the Warriors were down by 9 points. In the last 7 minutes of the game, we had a tie game at 90-90. Then Warriors rookie guard Will Richard knocked down a 26-foot three-pointer to give Golden State the lead, 93-90. This shot got the crowd on their feet and would ultimately give the Warriors the confidence to finish this game, especially with this sellout crowd. Forcing the Nets to call a timeout, but that would bite them later as they only had one timeout left with a lot of time to play left.

Although the Warriors couldn’t get a shot to go in, they were able to draw in the shooting fouls and get points from the foul. So with that, and the Warriors’ defense clutching up in the end. The Golden State Warriors would go on and beat the Nets after being down 13 points, 109-106.

The Warriors get themselves back-to-back wins for the first time since forward Jimmy Butler III’s injury on Jan. 19th. Player of the game went to Gui Santos. His performance and hustle was important as he also became a big fan favorite player. Santos would finish with 31 points, 4-of-6 from three-pointer’s, 3 rebounds, 2 steals, and 1 assist. Now Golden State looks and has a great chance to make it a three-game winning streak when the Washington Wizards come to the Bay on Friday, March 27th, 2026, at 7 p.m. right back at Chase Center as the team will also celebrate Filipino Heritage Night.

SJU comeback from 19 points, Heads to Quarterfinals in NIT, Bears lose in 2nd Round, 76-75

BERKELEY – After defeating the UIC Flames just 4 days ago, the Bears’ spirits were high and golden in Berkeley. However, all of that would change when Saint Joseph Hawks came into the Haas Pavilion. After being down 19 points with just 12 minutes left in the game. The Hawks would somehow and someway find a way to win again, on the road in the NIT, and defeat the Golden Bears, 76-75. Ending the Golden Bears’ postseason journey in their own home and getting a trip to the quarterfinals of the NIT.

This was the Golden Bears’ last home game of the season. If they had won, they would’ve faced New Mexico as their quarterfinal opponent in the NIT. The Lobos were ranked higher than the Bears; the first 3 rounds of NIT play are at the higher-ranked seeds’ home. However, it’ll be the Hawks heading to New Mexico. Again, the Golden Bears end their last home game of the season in a loss.

Saint Joseph is one of the five Atlantic 10 conference teams in the NIT. Coming into the game, the Hawks’ overall record in the NIT was 17-18 and is now 18-18. SJU has had one incredible season this year, so with that, the team sent out the starters they trust for this round. They started Derek Simpson, Dasear Haskins, Jaden Glover-Toscano, Austin Williford, and Justice Ajogbor. Toscano would lead the Hawks at halftime with 11 points and 5 rebounds.

California switched up its roster with a small change. The Golden Bears started with Justin Pippen, Dai Dai Ames, Nolan Dorsey, Chris Bell, and Lee Dort. Cal forward John Camden, who is usually in the starting lineup, is out with a foot injury. Cal guard Dai Dai Ames would have himself a game. Halfway through the 2nd half, Ames would join the 1,000th career point club.

The Hawks started the game off on fire. They would score the first basket and then start after that on a 7-0 scoring run. The Bears had a rocky start on their shooting and didn’t get on the board until 4 minutes after tip-off. So Saint Joseph did their best to use the Bears’ shots not going in to their advantage. They were able to build a lead to 16-8 by 7 minutes into the game.

Eventually, Cal’s shooting would start to knock down some shots and eventually build a big momentum for them. Especially on their 3-point shooting. The Bears would end the half shooting 35% from deep on 7-of 19. This was the Bears 2nd time in their 2nd game of the NIT for them to make six or more three-pointers in the first half. A great shooting stat line for them, as it proves why the Bears were able to finish the first half great in the two games of NIT play.

Cal guard Dai Dai Ames makes a big play for the team and the fans as he saves the ball from going out of bounds, lost his balance grabbing the ball while a defender is on him, then gains his rebalance with a crossover move to get pass his defender and beaten the buzzer on a midrange shot to give the fans excited for the 2nd half with a 8-point lead. California Golden Bears led the Hawks at halftime, 41-33.

The 2nd half was simply a “bear attack” on the Hawks. Seven minutes into the final half, the Bears saw their largest lead with 19 points, the score was 61-42. California was loving the home court advantage in the NIT play, as to a certain extent. The team just couldn’t miss a shot as they were shooting above 60% in all categories at the last half. Especially the Bears shooting 5-of-7 from deep in only the 2nd half.

Saint Joseph in the final 8 minutes of the game made their last attempt to comeback in this game. As Cal would miss a few shots after their hot run, the Hawks would make big shots and put in a lot of their efforts in the small plays to cut the lead. They brought the lead back to 11 points.

For 4 minutes, the Hawks would go on a 12-4 scoring run, and that scoring run was huge for them. Saint Joseph brought this game with 4 points. SJU would make 4 of their last 5 shot attempts to help position themselves for the lead. Although it was a great effort, especially when your season is on the line. The Hawks were able to bring it to 1, by a huge three-pointer from Hawks Austin Williford, 74-73 with 2 minutes remaining.

SJU Derek Simpson makes a game-changer three-pointer and gives the Hawks the lead by 1 point, 76-75. Making the Bears call a timeout with 44 seconds. Simpson’s shot would ultimately seal the game as the in the Bear’s last effort. Cal guard Dai Dai Ames would drive into the basket for a layup, but was blocked by Hawks Jaden Glover-Toscano. Ending the game with a final score of 76-75.

Cal was led by Chris Bell with his 23 points and 4 rebounds. 8 points shy from his previous career high (31), which he had just scored on their last game against UIC. So a great consistency performance for the senior. He would also have 12 three-pointers made in just the last 2 games he played in.

As this wasn’t ideal or expected for the Golden Bears men’s basketball season to end like this. This squad has so much to be proud of in a spectacular season they had. We thank you to all of our fans, viewers, subscribers, and, of course, the California Golden Bears for giving us another amazing season of NCAA Men’s basketball play.
