Share this: The 2017 NBA Draft class features a bevy of skilled point guards, but there’s two that stand out among the rest of the group. Markelle Fultz and Lonzo Ball have been considered by many as the top two talents in this year’s class, with Fultz being projected to be taken No. 1 by the Boston Celtics. Ball, who’s been outspoken about his desire to become a Los Angeles Laker, has a very good chance of being picked by the Purple and Gold at No. 2. It’s likely Fultz will be taken by the C’s, but the Washington product traveled to L.A. for a workout with the Lakers on Friday. And when Ball’s name was mention during his media availability, Fultz had

Matthew Slater’s Pick For NBA MVP Shouldn’t Come As A Major Surprise
Share this: As the NBA MVP debate rages on, the choice is obvious for New England Patriots special teams captain Matthew Slater. The NFL offseason has given Slater plenty of time to sit around and watch fellow UCLA-product Russell Westbrook accomplish some record-setting feats on the basketball court. “I got a chance to meet Russell when we were in school and just a classy kid, the way he carries himself,” Slater said. “I think all of us would be lying if we said we thought that he would be doing what he’s doing now, but that’s just the type of competitor he’s been since Day 1 at UCLA. It’s been fun to watch his journey, grow into who I think should be the
Internet Thinks LeBron James Is Trolling Lonzo Ball’s Odd Shooting Motion
Share this: We see what you (probably) did there, LeBron James. The Cleveland Cavaliers superstar made a slight alteration to his pregame warmup Thursday before the Cavs’ matchup with the Chicago Bulls, and the internet thinks it might be a not-so-subtle message to the Ball family by seemingly mocking UCLA point guard and potential No. 1 overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft Lonzo Ball’s unorthodox shooting motion. You be the judge. James and the Balls have a history, as the outspoken LaVar Ball mentioned James’ kids in one of his many outlandish statements. James, understandably, wasn’t a fan of what LaVar said, but that didn’t seem to faze the elder Ball. So it doesn’t feel like a stretch for the internet to come to this conclusion. Thumbnail

Julian Edelman Enjoys Charles Barkley’s Hilarious LaVar Ball Trolling
Share this: The Charles Barkley-LaVar Ball feud is one of the newest and most entertaining in sports. Ball, father of UCLA star Lonzo Ball, has been a media sensation as he continues to hype his son’s talents, as well as his own. Barkley, who’s never shy about giving his two cents, made a mockery of LaVar’s bold claim that he could’ve beaten Michael Jordan 1-on-1 and challenged him to a matchup himself. The two have continued to trade verbal jabs, and their feud reached new levels of hilarity during CBS Sports’ NCAA Tournament broadcast Friday night. Prior to UCLA’s first-round matchup against Kent State, Barkley donned a Golden Flashes jersey as a direct shot at LaVar. You can hear Barkley explain his motive behind the
