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.

How The Hell Did Alberto Moreno Get Away With This Tackle?

Sunday Afternoon ESPN Programming Is Grim
There’s really something to be said for ESPN’s Sunday afternoon programming, when the Worldwide Leader cedes all sports coverage to the broadcast networks and airs bowling or weightlifting competitions.

Raccoon Cheats Death At Yankees Spring Training
Raccoons are attracted to shiny objects, so it makes sense that this Tampa-area raccoon would choose to attend Yankees spring training. Maybe this is the same raccoon as the one who snuck in two years ago to watch the same team practice at the same field? Perhaps. I think, at this point, the evidenc...

Steve Kerr Burns Warriors Haters
Surely you’ve seen Steph Curry’s celestial game-winner from last night by now.

Steve Kerr used the opportunity to lace a pretty sea...
Marcus Rashford Cannot Be Stopped, Scores Twice On Arsenal In The First Half

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.

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.)...
ODU Player Makes Perfect Dish To Teammate Who Is Not Currently In The Game
Here, via American Sports Network, comes a clip from tonight’s UTSA-Old Dominion game in which Monarchs forward Brandan Stith collects an offensive rebound and passes to wide-open teammate Jordan Baker.
