Josh Emmett is a scary individual. If you don’t believe so, watch his last UFC fight.
Back in December 2023, Emmett scored one of the nastiest and scariest knockouts in UFC history. The long-time title contender viciously put the lights out on Bryce Mitchell at UFC 296 in Las Vegas. The massive right hand left Micthell unconscious and twitching on the mat in a scary scene.
Watch Emmett’s $50,000 Performance of the Night finish in the video above.

The Golden State Warriors have had over 600 players don the more than 60 jersey numbers used by their players over the more than 75 years of existence the team has enjoyed in its rich and storied history.
Founded in 1946 during the Basketball Association of America (BAA — a precursor league of the NBA) era, the team has called home the cities of Philadelphia, San Francisco, Oakland, and even San Diego.
 To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Warriors Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team.

BOSTON (AP) — Jaylen Brown scored 31 points and hit three 3-pointers and the Boston Celtics broke the NBA record for 3-pointers in a season in a 123-103 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Friday night.
Boston was 14 of 39 from 3-point range to push its season total to 1,370. Golden State held the previous record with 1,363 in 2022-23.
After having their nine-game winning streak halted in their previous game, the Celtics coasted to the victory.
Jayson Tatum added 23 points, eight rebounds and eight assists.

The Boston Celtics defeated the Phoenix Suns 123-103 at home Friday night. The Celtics are now 57-20 for the regular season, with just five games remaining before the playoffs begin.
The Suns were without Kevin Durant, a major blow to a mediocre offensive team fighting for its life in the West standings. Boston, meanwhile, was at full strength, and by the middle of the second quarter, the defending champions established a comfortable lead.

The Detroit Pistons have officially clinched an NBA playoff spot for the first time in six years.
Their road victory over the Toronto Raptors at Scotiabank Arena on Friday night guarantees the Pistons a top-six seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs, which begin April 19. The Pistons will avoid the play-in tournament, which features the Nos. 7-10 seeds in each conference and takes place April 15-18.

If you ask opposing fans, the Los Angeles Dodgers are the biggest villains in Major League Baseball. 
The Dodgers, after winning the World Series in 2024, entered the offseason with few holes to fill. And instead of resting on their laurels, celebrating their title and committing to more profits, they went all in. Blake Snell, Roki Sasaki, Michael Conforto, Kirby Yates, Tanner Scott, Teoscar Hernandez, Clayton Kershaw, Kike Hernandez and Blake Treinen were all either signed or retained.
For a team with the highest revenues in MLB, it made sense.

The Brooklyn Nets have 52 jersey numbers worn by over 600 different players over the course of their history since the franchise was founded in 1967 as a charter member of the American Basketball Association (ABA), when the team was known as the “New Jersey Americans”.

Since then, that league has been absorbed by the NBA with the team that would later become the New York Nets and New Jersey Nets before settling on the name by which they are known today, bringing their rich player and jersey history with them to the league of today.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Willy Adames hit a winning two-run single with two outs in the 11th inning, sending the San Francisco Giants over the Seattle Mariners 10-9 Friday in their home opener to extend their winning streak to five.
Luke Raley had given Seattle a 9-8 lead when he scored on Spencer Bivens’ wild pitch with two outs in the top half. Miles Mastrobuoni hit a one-out single against Bivens (1-1) that moved Raley to third after he began as the runner on second base.

Oregon State men’s basketball has lost another to the transfer portal on Friday as guard Damarco Minor became the sixth to transfer.

Texas A&M’s fourth SEC series begins on Friday night. The struggling Aggies will take on No. 1 Tennessee on the road for the first time since losing to the Volunteers in the National Championship round last summer. Sitting at 14-14 and 1-8 in SEC play, Texas A&M’s postseason chances are eliminated unless this team suddenly improves, which isn’t likely given the recent injuries.
