Rafael Nadal is doing some doubles work at the BNP Paribas Open with Fernando Verdasco, and he hit one of the cooler shots I’ve seen in a while.

‘Tis the season for buzzer-beaters.

Giannis Antetokounmpo Is A Point Guard Now, And It's Awesome
There’s a fun thing going on with the Milwaukee Bucks, a team that was supposed to be a spunky upstart but has unfortunately been a big-ass bummer.

John Wall, Goddamn
