It's been a nightmare season for the Los Angeles Lakers, a young, talented team that was supposed to at least be a playoff factor adding an old, but talented LeBron James. Instead, Los Angeles has switched into late tank mode now that it will be a part of the NBA Draft lottery, and the team has gotten more attention for Lonzo Ball's sneakers and a mocking “highlight” compilation that went viral last week. But now they actually have a “one shining moment” to hang their hat on. And it truly was a team effort.

In Tuesday night's win (Yes, win) over the Washington Wizards, Lance Stephenson literally tripped up Jeff Green (more on that in a moment) with a crossover in the second quarter that singlehandedly revived the Lakers. When he connected on the shot, you'd have thought the team had just won the NBA title instead of just lengthened their lead in a completely meaningless regular season game. Any..

For some at Match Play, losing early means missing out on the Masters

With a 164-point over/under, Friday's Auburn-UNC game has by far the highest total of all the Sweet 16 matchups. But if you make just one bet this week (LOL one bet), you should wager on that over to hit. Why? Because we've got some vital inside info. From Auburn's Bruce Pearl himself.

That's right, the Tigers coach let quite the cat out of the bag on ESPN Sportscenter with Scott Van Pelt on Monday night. When Pearl was asked about the meeting of two up-tempo teams, he blurted out, “I would just take the over, that's all I'm going to say.” The response drew a big laugh from Van Pelt—a man who loves gambling talk more than Jim Nantz loves Masters promos—and we'd be surprised if it didn't draw a call from the NCAA as well. Check out the amusing (and informative) clip:

Phil Mickelson is a lot of things. Golf legend, kung-fu master, and budding fitness guru. Perhaps most importantly, however, he's a style trailblazer, equally at home wandering Augusta National in a dress shirt as he is strutting Sunset in his trusty leather jacket. So when Phil tells you he's feeling your drip, you say and please and thank you, sir. Just ask Haotong Li, who could hardly believe his luck when Phil sauntered over at the Dell Match Play on Tuesday to say what's up and compliment Haotong on his bold new headwear direction. Check out the pivotal moment in golf style history below.

The best part of this video is obviously Haotong's reaction—a mixture of terror and elation that Phil even remembered his name, let alone noticed his new Powder-on-Safari lid. “It saves on sunscreen,” Li quips, barely containing his glee as Phil shouts “It's hard to pull off but you're doing it!” before wandering off to hit a few flop shots o..
