Draymond Green Proves That Steals Can Be Highlights
Draymond Green had a big game last night, helping the Steph Curry-less Warriors scratch out an overtime win against the Hawks. He swelled the box score as usual, finishing with 15 points, 13 rebounds, 9 assists and four steals. He also hit an absurd shot in the final minute of OT to help put the gam...
D'Angelo Russell Caps Career Night By Pointing Out The Ice In His Veins
There’s still a decent chunk of games left in the NBA season, but I feel pretty comfortable naming Lakers rookie D’Angelo Russell’s swaggering reaction to his clutch three the winner of the 2015-16 Feeling Yourself Award. (Sorry, Evan Turner. Better luck next year.)...
Julian Büscher's First Professional Goal Is A Long-Range Doozy
DC United just got knocked out of the quarterfinals of the CONCACAF Champions League, 3-1 on aggregate by Mexican side Querétaro. At least their lone goal—scored by German rookie Julian Büscher, in his second ever match for the club—was an absolute beauty, as Buescher smacked in a fishtailing rocket...
Jamari Traylor Destroys A Man's Constitution With Alley-Oop Dunk
Longhorns guard Eric Davis Jr. tried to stay with the Kansas Jayhawks in transition, even though Texas was losing by 29 in Monday’s game. That effort lined him up perfectly to be on the receiving end of a Jamari Traylor dunk....
Kicker Fast
The biggest news from this year’s NFL scouting combine is obviously Iowa kicker Marshall Koehn’s record-setting 40-yard dash time. ...
Update: Every Steph Curry Three-Pointer From 28+ Feet This Season
Stephen Curry’s overtime-winning rainbow Saturday night just added to the league MVP’s legend as one of the greatest long-range shooters the game has ever seen. Not only did it break his own records for consecutive games with a three-pointer and threes in a season, it tied the NBA record for three-p...
Sergio Llull Swishes Buzzer-Beater From The Opposite Three-Point Line
Sergio Llull was drafted by the Nuggets in 2009, but he’s stayed in Spain his entire career. Last year’s ACB Finals MVP nailed one of the longest buzzer-beaters we’ve seen all year today, giving Real Madrid the win over Valencia by a point, right after Valencia hit a kinda-sorta buzzer-beater of the...
Here's Stephen Curry's Miracle Game-Winner As Called In Spanish And In Russian
Stephen Curry’s multiple-record-breaking series of three pointers tonight against the Thunder sent the Warriors out of Oklahoma City with a win they had absolutely no business taking. None of the threes were more mindblowing, of course, than the last-second-of-overtime long-range bomb that earned th...
Stephen Curry Hits Game-Winning, Record-Breaking Jumper From Mars To Beat OKC
Stephen Curry, whose fate (and ankle) we questioned just an hour ago, hit a last-second three from 30 feet out to dispatch Oklahoma City in a game it seemed the Thunder couldn’t possibly lose. It was Curry’s 12th three-pointer of the game....
Gustav Nyquist's No-Look Backhander Ties Up Colorado Stadium Series Game
Detroit tied up the Avalanche at tonight’s Stadium Series game in Colorado with a gorgeous goal by Gustav Nyquist—a no-look backhander that helped set the stage for the Red Wings to take the lead later in the third period. (As I write this, Colorado tied it back up again.)...
Dutch Guy Chips Like Four Dudes To Score World-Class Goal
Look at all the dang dudes our friend Jonhatan Opoku chips here. I’m gonna lump the keeper and that last hapless center back in as a pair, making four....
15-Year-Old American Chloe Kim Wins X-Games Gold With Highest Score In Superpipe History
Remember when Shaun White won an Olympic Gold and a bunch of X-Games titles before he could buy himself a beer? Well, it looks a lot like American snowboarding has found his successor; Chloe Kim, who’s 15, and has already won a bunch of halfpipe events. Two weeks ago, she won gold in the Superpipe a...
High School Hockey Tourney Game Ends On Sudden Death Spin-O-Rama
No sport is better than playoff hockey, and that includes high school playoff hockey. Tonights’ Minnesota 4AA section final ended on an overtime spin-o-rama by Noah Cates, who helped his Stillwater team down Hill-Murray with the game’s only goal:...
It's 2016 And You Can Still Watch Steve Yzerman Score On Patrick Roy
Ciccarelli. Ysebaert. Lidstrom. Primeau. Cheveldae. Growing up in northwest Ohio and well within the night-time range of Detroit’s WJR-AM, these Detroit Red Wings players were my earliest hockey heroes. The opportunity to see some of them skate again no doubt drives the NHL’s Alumni series, which th...
Here's A Video Of 35 Times Stephen Curry Hit A Shot From 28+ Feet This Season
Warriors superstar Stephen Curry is en route to demolishing his own NBA single-season three-pointer record, and if the quantity weren’t astonishing enough consider this: at least 35 of the 276 threes Curry has hit this season have been from 28 feet or further, more than four feet behind the three-po...
This Pass From Isaiah Whitehead Is Extremely Good And Cool
Okay, so it’s not as good as Isaiah Thomas’s dime, which I still can’t wrap my head around, but this is still pretty cool. ...
Goodness, This Isaiah Thomas Pass
I’ve been repeatedly watching the replay of this no-look, behind-the-head pass from Isaiah Thomas that set up Jae Crowder’s game-sealing three, trying to figure out at what point Thomas spotted Crowder on the wing, and I never see him glance over there. But it sounds like it might be one of those sp...
Michal Neuvirth Makes Miraculous, Impossible To Believe Game-Winning Save
When Charlie Coyle unleashed a potential game-tying shot with just three second left, everybody on the Minnesota Wild was convinced it had gone in. Just look at them all raise their sticks in unison. I mean, how could that shot have possibly not gone in?...
This Full-Court Chest-Pass Buzzer-Beater Is Incredible
I can’t think of another shot quite like Josh Henderson’s 70-foot buzzer-beater at the end of the first half of Vanderbilt’s 87-74 win over Florida. The low angle of the damn thing makes it nearly impossible, like an inch off in any direction would have sent it careening into the stands. It’s like a...
Clint Dempsey Bends Long-Range Free Kick Perfectly Into The Top Corner
Clint Dempsey opened the scoring in Tuesday’s CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal between the Seattle Sounders and Mexico’s Club América with this prodigious free kick:...
