Kevin Durant put a new spin on the “too small” taunt after hitting a shot over Luka Doncic.
The ‘too small’ taunt has taken over the NBA. Everyone from Giannis Antetokounmpo to Patrick Beverley has gone to the taunt on recent years, usually when scoring near the rim. Attacking a size mismatch is a tale as old as time in basketball, and when you have a “mouse in the house,” you need to get a bucket.
The Phoenix Suns faced the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday in a matchup of two of the league’s best talents: Luka Doncic on one side, Kevin Durant on the other.

Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko was feeling himself on Saturday night, and rightfully so. Elko led the Aggies to a comeback win over LSU, solidifying Texas A&M as a legitimate candidate to make the College Football Playoff.

Both conferences had massive matchups shape the landscape moving forward and, in multiple cases, left lingering questions that will be fascinating to monitor as we head into November.
What went down in Week 9 and what should we expect down the stretch?
The Aggies have never played in the SEC Championship Game, but that will likely change as the 38-23 win over LSU makes the path to the Peach State very clear.

Speaking after Penn State’s 28-13 victory over Wisconsin on Saturday, Nittany Lions coach James Franklin apologized for walking away from the microphone Wednesday when asked about two former players who were accused by police of raping a 17-year-old girl.
