Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura was feeling himself a bit after helping lead his team to a 110-103 win over the new-look Minnesota Timberwolves on the opening night of the NBA season. So much so, in fact, that he elected to call out three-time All-Star Julius Randle after the game.
Hachimura, who scored 18 points for the Lakers in the win, turned heads during the game when he pulled of a monster dunk over Minnesota big man Rudy Gobert in the first half. Not only did he literally dunk on Gobert, he figuratively dunked on Randle during his post-game press conference.

Even the experts didn’t expect the Shohei Ohtani 50/50 baseball to go for this much.
Wednesday night’s final bidding via Goldin Auction ended with the prized baseball not only being sold for the highest price of a baseball ever, but ANY sports ball as well.

Sean Payton and co. reach their highest rank of 2024.
We’re fast approaching the midpoint of the season and it’s safe to say we have a pretty good idea of where teams are slotting in.
