Martell Webster Just Made The Most Boneheaded Play Of The NBA Season
Down three in overtime to Denver with 4.9 seconds left, Minnesota's Martell Webster answered Timberwolves fans' prayers and intercepted a Nuggets inbound pass—only to leave them cursing his name after driving to the hoop instead of attempting a three to force double-OT. The National Post's Bruce Arthur said it best:
In basketball news, Martell Webster is as dumb as his haircut, which is REALLY DUMB.

Update: Minneapolis Star-Tribune reporter Jerry Zgoda says Webster knew the score and thought he could draw a foul by driving to the basket.
