This was just too good.
The only rule when it comes to the post-game interview is “don’t swear”, and on Wednesday night Luka Doncic forgot that in hilarious fashion.

“Yeah, the point I said before the game: We can’t just f*** around and uh … ah s***.”
There’s always something magical about realizing you swore and following it with another swear.
You see something new every day in college basketball.
The latest bizarre play came from Purdue Fort Wayne’s matchup with Southern Indiana, during which a player blocked a shot… with his shoe!
Fort Wayne star point guard Rasheed Bello lost his shoe during live action, picked it up, and kept defending his man. He then used the hand with the shoe in it to block a jump shot, a hilarious moment that had the internet in hysterics. The best part? The move was totally legal, as long as he didn’t throw the shoe at the ball or player.
A handful of backup quarterbacks played in Week 13, but that didn’t stop teams from finding the end zone to continue the surge in points scored in recent weeks.
Jake Browning’s Bengals beat the Jaguars, 34–31. Gardner Minshew’s Colts defeated the Titans, 31–28. Last week, seven games ended with a total line of 50 points or more (Packers-Chiefs fell short with 46 points).
Points are being scored, despite the growing number of injured quarterbacks.
A teenage hockey player was injured after an opponent’s skate sliced open his chest during a game last week, causing him to be hospitalized. The severe injury came just weeks after former Pittsburgh Penguin Adam Johnson was killed during a European hockey game when a skate sliced his throat.
19-year-old Jonas Nyhus Myhre was injured last Thursday when an opponent’s skate hit him in the chest during play. At first, the adrenaline kept him from thinking much of the injury – he thought he was just heavily bruised.
Second-year Utah Jazz coach Will Hardy slammed his team’s performance in the wake of a 147–97 loss to the Mavericks on Wednesday night in Dallas.
“That was an absolutely horrendous performance from start to finish,” Hardy said. “That was a masterpiece of dogs—. It seemed like the Mavericks were moving at a different pace than we were from start to finish.”
Ouch.
The 50-point loss dropped the Jazz to 7-14 on the season.
Chris Godwin’s involvement in the Buccaneers offense took a hit in Sunday’s 21—18 win over the Panthers, and his wife has questions.
The Tampa Bay wide receiver was targeted just three times against Carolina, a notable drop-off compared to the seven targets he received in each of the Bucs’ two previous games. Despite being on the field for 52 snaps against the Panthers (84% of the Bucs’ offensive plays), Godwin saw fewer looks than his fellow wideouts. The Super Bowl champ finished with zero catches but did record a 19-yard rushing touchdown.
The Pacers took down the Celtics in the quarterfinals of the in-season tournament to set up a semifinals matchup with the Bucks on Thursday night in Las Vegas.
Indiana beat Milwaukee 126–124 when these teams matched up a month ago, despite Giannis Antetokounmpo’s season-high 54 points, but the Bucks are still favored to advance to the championship against the winner of the Pelicans-Lakers game. Indiana (11–8) leads the league in scoring average at 128.4 points per game. Milwaukee (15–6) is third in scoring at 122.
Yankees star outfielder Aaron Judge spoke to a television station in New York on Thursday morning, hours after the franchise completed a blockbuster trade to land 25-year-old All-Star outfielder Juan Soto from the Padres.
“I’m excited,” Judge told Fox 5 New York. “We gave up quite a few pieces to get him, you know, but he’s a generational talent. His track record, his stats speak for themselves. I think everybody in the Yankee universe is pretty excited to have him.
Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce released this week’s episode of their hit podcast, New Heights, on Wednesday and once again it didn’t disappoint, as they broke down their respective Week 13 losses, banning the Tush Push, and their mom, Donna Kelce, being challenged to a fight.
Well, kind of.
In case you missed it, two of the biggest comedians in the world—Tom Segura and Bert Kreischer—brought up the Kelce brothers in their latest episode of their podcast, 2 Bears, 1 Cave.
After weeks of rumors that never seemed to go away, Jon Rahm is set to officially join LIV Golf in the coming days, according to the Wall Street Journal. His decision to bolt to the Saudi-backed circuit comes after multiple occasions in which he pledged his loyalty to the PGA Tour.
“A deal for Rahm is expected to be announced this week, people familiar with the matter said, assuming talks don’t fall apart,” according to the WSJ. Terms of the Spaniard’s deal are not yet known, but it is expected to be the largest offered contract by the Saudi-backed circuit since its inception.
