After starting slow, Texas blitzed the Hurricanes in the first half. Guard Marcus Carr and forward Timmy Allen contributed 10 points apiece as the Longhorns took a 45–37 lead despite being outshot 61.5% to 54.8% from the field in the first 20 minutes.

LeBron James made is long awaited return to the Lakers on Sunday but did so off the bench as his team slowly begins to integrate him back into the lineup. His return was spoiled with a loss against the Bulls but after the game, he dropped one of his best quotes yet when referencing himself in third person. 
James, who said he tore a tendon in his right foot on Feb. 26 against the Mavericks, has missed the last 13 games and shared that two doctors said he should have season-ending surgery.

No. 5 seed Miami rallied from 13 down in the second half to beat No. 2 seed Texas and complete a Final Four with no top-3 seeds.

San Diego State muscled its way into its first Final Four, grinding out a 57-56 victory over Creighton on Sunday in the NCAA tournament’s South Region final.

There are great rounds of golf and then there is what Sam Burns did Sunday afternoon in Austin, Texas. Facing Cameron Young in the championship match of the World Golf Championships (WGC) Dell Technologies Match Play event.
Earlier in the day, Burns benefitted from Scottie Scheffler missing a very short putt that would have ended his title run. But, Scheffler did miss and Burns took advantage. Not just by making the final match, but by absolutely railroading Cameron Young.

It’s that time of year! Players spend Spring Training trying to impress major league coaches, like Aaron Boone. And some make the Opening Day roster, a dream come true. For New York Yankees top prospect Anthony Volpe, that dream officially became reality.
Wait, this feels familiar. Didn’t I already write this story? Oh wait, that was about St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Jordan Walker.
