Loyola-Chicago Beats Miami On Last-Second Three-Pointer [UPDATE]
Donte Ingram’s three-pointer in the final second of the game earned his 11th-seeded Loyola-Chicago team a 64-62 win in a game that saw the Ramblers blow two would-be game-winning shots in the final fifteen seconds before Ingram earned upset redemption....
Nikola Jokic Reveals How He Sets Up Those Super Cool Court-Length Passes
One underappreciated aspect of Nikola Jokic’s much-lauded passing ability is the way that he shrinks the court for the Nuggets and creates easy buckets out of otherwise unlikely scenarios. What I mean specifically, in this case, is that the big boy can huck it downcourt from a mile away and set up e...
Julius Randle Is A Damn Bully
Paul Millsap stands 6-foot-8 and weighs 246 pounds. He looks like he could easily lift me off the ground while palming my skull. He’s strong, is what I’m saying. But he doesn’t look so strong here, does he?...
Let Us Now Have Our Brains Melted By Anthony Davis
The New Orleans Pelicans came apart over the last, oh, 13 minutes or so of last night’s game and wound up losing pretty one-sidedly to the Utah Jazz, at home. Please do not let that distract you too much from the hilarious wonder of Anthony Davis’s 25-point, 11-rebound, 10-block triple double....
USA Rugby's Perry Baker Embarrasses Four Defenders On A Fantastic Try
USA Rugby won this weekend’s World Rugby Sevens Series event in Las Vegas, its first-ever USA Sevens championship, and, fittingly, American player Perry Baker had the highlight of the tournament. Baker was pinned near his own goal line, but he juked his way out of that tight spot, broke an open-fiel...
Radford Earns Big South Conference Championship With Game-Winning Buzzer-Beater
I’m still digging the buzzer-beaters over here. This one comes from the Big South Conference tournament final, where 2nd-seed Radford had the last possession of a tied game against 5th-seed Liberty, who’d knocked out top-seed UNC Asheville on Friday. The Highlanders ran off some clock and set a pair...
Lonzo Ball Rescued The Lakers With Actual By-God Buckets
The Lakers, stuck in the somewhat rare position of being a definite non-playoff team that also has no incentive whatsoever to lose, have, instead, been winning: they’ve now won five in a row, and seven of ten, and nine of 12, and 13 of 18, and 17 of 24. Barring a downturn over their final 20 games—a...
High School Title Game Ends With Insane Game-Winning Hail Mary Buzzer-Beater
The scene of this incredible buzzer beater is the gym at Pace University, where Ardsley High School found itself down two, 51-49, with just seconds left in the New York Section 1 Class A title game, and opponent Tappan Zee High School inbounding:...
Celtics-Rockets Was One Totally Bitchin' Basketball Game
If you missed last night’s Celtics-Rockets game—if, say, you were watching outdoor hockey or a heavyweight title fight—you missed an outrageously fun and fast and fiercely competitive game. You wouldn’t necessarily expect a game where James Harden and Kyrie Irving combined to shoot 12-of-35 from the...
Adam Hadwin Nails Insane Sidewinding Birdie Putt
This happened today in the third round of 2018 Mexico Championship at the Club de Golf Chapultepec—Adam Hadwin, who finished the day tied for 21st place, picked out a hilariously imaginative line for his birdie putt on the par-3 third hole. Check this shit out:...
Now Here Is One Cool-Ass Tennis Move With Potential Dick-Punishing Consequences
Second-seeded Fabio Fognini defeated third-seeded and three-time defending champion Pablo Cuevas in the Brasil Open semifinals today in Sao Paolo, 6-4 6-2. But hell with the results: the real winner here is Cuevas, for pulling off this slick-ass move in the second set:...
How, LeBron?
Every night LeBron James plays a basketball game, there is a strong probability he does something you’ve never seen a human being do before. So here’s one of those things. ...
James Harden On Why He Stared At The Lifeless Pile Of Flesh That Used To Be Wesley Johnson: "I Was Trying To Figure Out What He Was Doing"
James Harden did one of the meanest things you’ll ever see in a basketball game last night, when he crossed Wesley Johnson into the floor and then just stood there, for what felt like an eternity, and stared at Johnson before eventually splashing a three. Harden was asked about the long stare after ...
Erik Karlsson Makes The Most Of A Bad Situation
In the third period of tonight’s Senators-Capitals game, Erik Karlsson wasn’t exactly where he should have been. His location wasn’t good for him, and it wasn’t really doing anything to help his team. There were plenty of other places where he could have been more of a threat, or more fun to pay att...
Lauri Markkanen Gets His Soul Snatched On Jarrett Allen's Dunk, Admirably Tries To Get Revenge<em></em>
The Brooklyn Nets had a real, honest highlight in the third quarter of Monday’s 104-87 win over the Bulls. Nineteen-year-old Jarrett Allen rolled and found himself in the perfect position to throw down a dunk; Bulls rookie Lauri Markkanen found himself in the worst spot to receive it....
Lonzo Ball Lost A Shooting Contest To Bow Wow
If you are a professional basketball player there is one thing you have to understand: Even though losing a casual shooting contest to a non-professional basketball player is not an objectively big deal, it is something you absolutely cannot allow to happen. Why? Because when it does happen, you hav...
Anthony Davis Just Might Go Get The MVP
The AD and Boogie show was one of the best things going in the NBA, which made Boogie snapping his achilles tendon just before the All-Star break a downright depressing development. What’s definitely not depressing are the things Anthony Davis has been doing to the chumps who have had the misfortune...
The Most Badass Goals Are Roberto Firmino's No-Look Goals
Liverpool’s Brazilian striker Roberto Firmino may be the hardest working center forward in the game, but don’t get it twisted: he still manages to couple his indefatigable off-ball work with more than a little of that old samba flair. His elaborate goal celebrations are probably the most indicative ...
Bad-Ass Goose Unfazed After Getting Plunked By Tiger Woods Drive
Look out, goose!...
Damian Lillard Rescued His Blazers From The Lowly Suns, And Also The Suns From The Blazers
It is not an exaggeration to say that Damian Lillard’s heroics in the fourth quarter of Saturday night’s Blazers-Suns tilt rescued both teams: the Blazers are smack in the middle of the West’s dense playoff pack; meanwhile the Suns, had they won, would’ve gone from having the worst win percentage in...
