It took nearly two decades but Len Bias, a two-time Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year and likely the most talented player in Maryland basketball history, was inducted into Maryland's athletics Hall of Fame Saturday along with seven others.

If Len Bias could attend his own Hall of Fame ceremony on Friday, he'd do so as a 50-year-old man. That's a heck of a thing to wrap your head around if you grew up as an obsessed ACC basketball fan in the 1980s.

Under Armour has offered NBA superstar Kevin Durant – one of the nation's most popular and marketable athletes -- a package worth between $265 million and $285 million that would be the company's largest sponsorship deal, according to a media report..

Nearly three decades after he died from a cocaine overdose, Len Bias will be formally recognized by the University of Maryland as a member of its Athletics Hall of Fame.

For almost a year, the question was "if" Michael Phelps would return to competitive swimming. Now that Phelps is scheduled to end his 20-month retirement this week in Mesa, Ariz., a more nuanced question looms: Why?

Olympic swimming legend Michael Phelps has quite predictably come to realize that living the good life isn't going to be enough to keep him entertained.

As soon as Johns Hopkins lost its third game in a row Saturday, I knew the letters and phone calls would come pouring in: Fire Blue Jays coach Dave Pietramala.

While Seth Allen probably will not play much until the Terps return to ACC competition Saturday against Georgia Tech, recent history suggests he might.

Maryland center Alex Len could go to the Cleveland Cavaliers with the No. 1 pick in the 2013 NBA draft.

Brothers Tim Connelly (Denver Nuggets), Pat Connelly (Phoenix Suns), Joe Connelly (Washington Wizards) and Dan Connelly (Utah Jazz) grew up in Baltimore's Roland Park neighborhood and now work for NBA franchises.

Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps and Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan teed off against each other on the golf course at the 12th annual Michael Jordan Celebrity Invitational at Shadow Creek in Las Vegas this weekend.

Former Maryland basketball star Walt Williams still vividly recalls winning a the ECAC Holiday Festival at Madison Square Garden in 1990.

The weekend's NBA all star game gave halftime show junkies a fix after their Super Bowl withdrawl, Danica Patrick ran a fast qualifying lap, and Christoph Waltz shows everyone the lighter side of Hitler.

Baltimore Sun reporters Jeff Barker and Don Markus and editor Matt Bracken weigh in on the three biggest topics of the past week in Maryland sports.

In a pivotal day of testimony in the Phylicia Barnes murder trial, a 36-year-old petty criminal took the stand as one of the prosecution's key witnesses but someone the defense has dismissed as a "jailhouse snitch."

Baltimore prosecutors on Friday said a sexually-charged video depicting teenage murder victim Phylicia Barnes and her alleged killer shows a turning point in the relationship that ultimately led to her death.

Making Sports Illustrated's cover is an honor, but some say it's also a curse, something that Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco contends with this week as Baltimore heads into the AFC championship game against the New England Patriots.

The flu that has reached epidemic proportions and sickened people across the country has also infected Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis — who didn't let the illness stop him from bringing down a few Denver Broncos last weekend.

Ray Lewis, the legendary Baltimore Ravens linebacker, said he'll retire after this season.

Holding court inside the Ravens' locker room Thursday, veteran free safety Ed Reed was in no hurry to head toward the exit door. Reed is following a similar unrushed, stress-free approach toward addressing his uncertain future with the team after 11 seasons.

If the scariest man in the NFL isn't Baltimore linebacker Ray Lewis, it might be Denver quarterback Peyton Manning. Irk them at your own risk.

Christmas may come early for Apple CEO Tim Cooke who could find out today whether a mess of Samsung phones are permanently placed on the naughty list, out of reach of U.S. consumers. Lakers star Kobe Bryant just scored his 30,000 point joining the elite ranks of Michael Jordan and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

The rubble of Babette's Supper Club is still smoking and the echoes of last week's blast are still ringing in Nucky Thompson's ears.

In some ways, Prince George's is to Washington, D.C., as Brooklyn is to Manhattan when it comes to basketball. While the District has produced hoop legends such as Elgin Baylor and Dave Bing, Prince George's has several of its own, such as Kevin Durant and Ty Lawson, currently in the NBA. Laurel, which also includes parts of Anne Arundel and Howard County, also has its own share of basketball standouts.

Michael Phelps' post-competition goals won't deviate from the causes he's always championed.
