LeBron James spoke about his son Bronny’s commitment to play college basketball at USC, and he didn’t hide his pride when talking to reporters after the Lakers’ Game 3 win against the Warriors. 
Speaking to Mike Trudell on the court after the game, James called Saturday “one of the best days of my life,” expressing his joy over his son making his college commitment.

The Warriors took a Brow-beating in L.A. as Anthony Davis controlled the action on both ends of the court in a 127-97 rout.

A couple of heavy hitters ran into each other at the Kentucky Derby this year, as sports betting machine Mattress Mack pressed the flesh with Super Bowl champ Patrick Mahomes.
Mattress Mack — despite having the nickname “Mattress” — is known more for making gigantic sports bets than he is for selling mattresses.
Last year, Mack set a U.S. sports-betting record when he won $75 million betting on the Astros to win the World Series.

Bronny James finally made his college recruitment decision on Saturday, opting to stay close to home and join USC.

Bronny had interest from various top programs around the country, though it was reported his top options were Oregon, Ohio State, and USC. His final decision generated a loud reaction from his father before LeBron took the court in Game 3 against the Warriors.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The show always goes on in horse racing. Sometimes callously, sometimes with a degree of tone deafness, sometimes with an avert-your-gaze denial of the sport’s tragic truths.
It went on at Churchill Downs again Saturday. The day began with the scratch of Kentucky Derby favorite Forte due to state veterinary concerns, the fifth Derby scratch of the week, most since 1936. Then there were two more horses euthanized after being injured in undercard races, bringing the number of equine deaths at the track to seven since April 27.

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch defended his team’s decision to select a kicker in the third round of this year’s NFL Draft.
The Niners selected Michigan’s Jake Moody in the third round with the 99th-overall pick. It was kind of a surprising choice. One that made Moody the earliest kicker selected in a draft since the Tampa Bay Buccaneers took Robert Aguayo 59th overall in 2016.
Even wilder, Moody became just the sixth kicker taken in the top 100 since 2000.
So, understandably some were wondering what the 49ers were doing.

Lakers star LeBron James’s career has been defined by milestones that have helped him put together one of the greatest resumes in the history of the game.

Things got heated between the Oilers and Golden Knights in the second period on Saturday night, during which one Vegas fan could be seen showing Evander Kane the double bird. 
The Game 2 clash was leaning heavily in the favor of Edmonton, who jumped out to a 5-0 lead, when tensions flared and gloves were dropped.
After a fight between Oilers’ Nick Bjugstad and Vegas’ Brett Howden broke out at center ice, the rest of the two teams got into a scuffle.
