Aw, why you have to be so mean, Ben McLemore? The Kings guard spent some time with youngsters back in his hometown of St. Louis and even crushed a couple dunks. This one just so happened to be on one of his young fans, much to his peers pleasure.

Dunk of the Night

The helpless Pacers just don’t have anything good going on right now as their season looks like it’s about to run it’s course. Hawks forward Paul Millsap does not give them any sympathy as this vicious throw-down shows.

With NBA Commissioner Adam Silver banning Clippers owner Donald Sterling for life today, a resolution has finally come to the Clippers and their fans. As this post shows, the fans and the organization are ready to get back to basketball and cheer for their team tonight.

HEAT forward LeBron James and guard Dwyane Wade show some class and respect by paying homage to the GOAT Michael Jordan after sweeping his Bobcats. Very classy on Jordan’s end to acknowledge the greatness that is LeBron at this point of his career and wish him well.

Defense and Offense of the Night

The Mavericks may have come up short last night against the Spurs, but they did all they could to pull out the win at home. Check this great defense and steal by Mavs forward Vince Carter, which leads to the clear-path slam by his teammate Monta Ellis. With the series tied 2-2, this first versus eighth seed match-up is far from over.

YouTube of the Night

If you’re a fan of West Coast style and flair in basketball, you’re going to love high school senior point-guard Jordan McLaughlin. Be looking for McLaughlin’s flashy passes and sick handles next year at USC; we’re betting you will be entertained.

Swag of the Day

Bulls guard Derrick Rose may not be the happiest person unable to play for his team in the playoffs, but he can still put on a smile and make a young fan’s day. It doesn’t hurt having one of the best suit games in the business.

Former Michigan forward Glenn Robinson III may not be a pro yet, but these Jordan’s show he has the confidence to be one next season in the NBA. Having the genes of his old man definitely doesn’t hurt either.
