LeBron James clarified his age in a viral photo that compared the Lakers superstar to G League Ignite player Scoot Henderson. 
House of Highlights reposted a graphic comparing what claimed to be an 18-year-old James to Henderson at the same age. In the picture, one can see James in his St. Vincent-St. Mary High School Fighting Irish gear next to Henderson in his Ignite jersey.

What was happening on the Pels bench Wednesday?
The Pelicans took a bite out of one of the teams just ahead of them in the Western Conference, the Mavericks, on Wednesday with a 113–106 home win. Star forward Brandon Ingram suffered an injury that kept him out of the second half of the game, but cameras caught him having a very bizarre moment with teammate Jose Alvarado on the bench.
With seconds left in the game, cameras turned to Ingram and Alvarado, who has been out since late February with a stress reaction in his right tibia.

Brown went .500 against his rivals, but hasn’t won in three years. In addition, his most recent matchups against Michigan did not go well for him.
