(Photo by Minas Panagiotakis/Getty Images)Bubba Watson has seen his share of struggles the last few years, but the two-time Masters champ remains one of the most recognizable names inside the ropes. Now he's taking that popularity to the hardwood.
The NBA announced on Wednesday that Watson will be part of the league's Celebrity Game during All-Star Weekend. The contest will be held at the Los Angeles Convention Center on Feb. 16 at 4 p.m. Convenient for Watson, as he's scheduled to play in the Genesis Open right down the road at Riviera.

So imagine her excitement when she found out that her husband will be playing with the show’s host, Chris Harrison, this week at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.

“She watches it every Monday religiously,” Day noted this week on the Monterey Peninsula.
As for Jason, well, lets just say he still needs to be sold on the show.
“When I hear the stuff that comes out of these people’s mouths, I just walk out shaking my head sometimes. It’s a pretty entertaining show, if you get down to sit and watch it, but I can’t get hooked on it.”

Stuart FranklinGraham DeLaet is an entertaining follow on Twitter, brandishing a wit few on tour possess. However, DeLaet's feed was captivating for another reason on Tuesday night: the Canadian pro reported a UFO sighting, backing up his testimony with video.

While we're not here to debate the existence of extraterrestrial life (although if you've seen Independence Day, then you clearly know what's up), some of DeLaet's followers noted the UFO was likely part of the Falcon Heavy launch from SpaceX. An observation DeLaet seemed to take in stride.

Sadly, not a single smart-ass claimed the UFO in question was a Rory McIlroy drive. We're better than that, you guys.

Mark SobhaniAfter a promising 24-9 start to the season for LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers, the team has fallen off a cliff, hitting every rock and extended tree limb on the way down. They've gone 6-13 since, including an embarrassing 148-124 home loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on January 20 and an equally-bad/possibly-worse 120-88 home loss to the Houston Rockets last Saturday night.

On a random Tuesday night in the NBA, the black cloud hovering over LeBron's head got infinitely darker, and then it began to torrentially downpour. The Cavs were in Orlando looking for a bounce-back win over the Magic, the second-worst team in the league with a record of 17-36. Cleveland cruised to a 61-40 lead late in the first half, and then proceeded to choke in epic fashion, eventually losing the game 116-98 for their ninth loss in their last 13 games. Meanwhile in New York, the curse of LeBron struck again, wh..
