Utah's Ekpe Udoh Is A Delightful Anomaly
There will probably never be much of a collection of YouTube game highlight videos from Ekpe Udoh’s NBA career, unless Udoh makes one himself. He is, without a doubt, one of the least consequential offensive players in the entire NBA, and always has been. Some adorable person made this 0:52 highligh...

USC Fakes Out Everyone With Genius Decoy Punt Return
Michael Pittman Jr. went 72 yards for a punt return touchdown on a play that faked out UCLA and ABC/ESPN’s camera operator as nearly every Bruin bit on a decoy punt return that opened the scoring in tonight’s battle of L.A. ...

The NBA's One-And-Done Draft Rule Is Just Dumb Enough To Allow One More Prep-To-Pro Star
ESPN reported this week that Adam Silver and Michele Roberts are more open than ever to changing the NBA’s draft eligibility rules, which currently require American high school players to be a year removed from the graduation of their high school class by the time of the draft in order to be eligibl...

Great Googly Moogly, The Nuggets Can Sure Fill It Up
Entering last night’s game the Denver Nuggets ranked a disappointing 14th in offensive rating on the season. They finished last season fifth in offense, at 110 points per 100 possessions; from December 15 onward—the day they moved Nikola Jokic into the starting lineup as a center—that number was 113...

Lonzo Ball's General Passivity Extends Even To Helping A Teammate In A Fight
In last night’s loss to the Phoenix Suns, Lakers guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope got a little territorial with Tyler Ulis of the Suns, and a brouhaha ensued. Not a fight, but certainly an altercation. As NBA “fights” go, this was more intense and physical than the LeBron-Enes Kanter conflict, but cer...

Shitty Male Apologies From This News Cycle, Ranked
Deadspin ranks things—cereals, planets, board games—fairly often. It’s our house style to file these rankings to “Underexplained Lists” and then to live up to that descriptor: there’s no point to explaining the list, because the process is secondary. The list is the point. The stupid list, with all ...

Ohio Supreme Court Justice Bill O'Neill Wants You To Know He Has Fucked
The last time we saw Ohio Supreme Court Justice and prolific Facebook user Bill O’Neill around these parts, he was taking the “draft dodging millionaires” of the Cleveland Browns to task for kneeling during the national anthem. O’Neill is self-evidently a man of many passions, but mostly he loves to...

King Krule Will Be The Last Rock Star In The Universe
It’s a funny moment, when you’re a young person, and you come across an even younger person who is deeply, unambiguously, in every thinkable respect, cooler than you. Do you remember when this happened to you? It comes well before the body-wide, achy realization that you, as a fan of sports or music...

I Can’t Get Enough Of The Stupid NFL Pizza Wars<em></em>
Earlier this week the Papa John’s Twitter account, which apparently thinks it is a real person, bravely denounced Nazis who might enjoy its product and apologized for dipping their garlicky, ranchy toes into the middle of an NFL civil war. And while I love it when a brand publicly steps on its own n...

The Celtics Were Everywhere
After last night’s 92-88 win over the Warriors, the Celtics’ defensive rating is a suffocating 97.2. The last time we saw this team approach this level of defensive dominance was during the reign of the Big Three, when Boston won the 2007-08 championship with a defensive rating of 98.9....

James Harden Thought He Broke The Scoreboard
Ever see a team score 142 points in a game in which they stopped really trying after halftime? Rockets over Suns was a good, old-fashioned blowout, notable and enjoyable for the sheer ludicrousness of the thing....

Jaylen Brown Helps Carry Celtics Over Warriors With Emotional Win After Death Of His Best Friend
Jaylen Brown helped lead the Celtics to a come-from-behind win over the Warriors tonight, the day after the death of his best friend. After he led the team in scoring with a 22-point effort, he gave an emotional press conference about deciding to play after the shock of learning last night that Trev...

Aly Raisman Shines A Light On USA Gymnastics' Culture Of Abuse<em></em>
In the year since the Olympic Games in Rio, more than 140 women and girls have come forward and said that Larry Nassar, the former team doctor for the U.S. women’s gymnastics team, had sexually abused them under the guise of medical treatment. On Sunday night, Aly Raisman went on 60 Minutes and anno...
