I had a great day today because both my favorite basketball teams won - Michigan State beat North Dakota State and the Lakers beat the Heat!

The Lakers won their 8th straight game and they are playing their best basketball at the right time - just as the Playoffs are approaching.

Luka Doncic is the most unguardable player in the NBA!🤯 He scored a season high 60 points in tonight’s win against the Miami Heat. Luka has to be one of the top 2 or 3 players being considered in the MVP race. LeBron James is also playing out of his mind! He recorded a 19 point, 15 rebound and 10 assist triple double and led the Lakers to a 134-126 win.

I want to wish Michigan State’s Women’s Basketball team good luck tomorrow when they play Colorado State!

MSU’s perimeter defense is going to have to be excellent in order to beat Louisville on Saturday!

It was a total team effort and my Spartans played hard from start to finish in their 92-67 victory over North Dakota State today! Four guys scored in double figures led by Carson Cooper who was 7 for 9 from the floor with 20 points and 11 rebounds. Carr added 17 points, Ward had 13, and Kohler had 12. The Spartans excellent point guard Jeremy Fears had 11 assists. @MSU_Basketball

At 1P PT/4P ET today I’ll be cheering for my MSU Spartans as they take on North Dakota State in the NCAA Tournament! Go green! Go white!

The Lakers are contenders in the West because of their outstanding improvement on defense. It’s been a total team effort, starting with man-to-man defense and their rotations and communication have been excellent. It says a lot about the great job JJ Redick is doing! The Lakers are the most exciting team to watch in the NBA!

In the last week, the Lakers have beaten three Playoff teams - Denver, Minnesota and Houston twice!

Lakers Luka Doncic put on a show tonight with 40 points, 10 assists and 9 rebounds in their 124-116 win over the Houston Rockets! He had help from LeBron James who had three incredible dunks and finished with 30 points - extending their winning streak to 7.

I’m looking forward to seeing my MSU Spartans play North Dakota State tomorrow. To win the game the Spartans have to rebound, play tremendous defense, and create fast break opportunities.

Miami (OH)’s 89-79 win over SMU tonight proved they belong in the NCAA Tournament!

One of the greatest moments in my life was being able to fly to Madrid and watch Lionel Messi play against Cristiano Ronaldo live. It’s a privilege to be able to witness two superstars at the top of their game compete!

What an unbelievable feat! Soccer great Lionel Messi has scored his 900th goal, joining Cristiano Ronaldo as the only two players to accomplish this incredible milestone.

Congratulations to the Prairie View players and their Coach Byron Smith for defeating Lehigh 67-55 and advancing to play Florida!

Today is a great day for fans around the world, the league, WNBA players and owners as the WNBA and WNBPA have reached an agreement! 👏🏾 espn.com/wnba/story/_/i…

I want to congratulate Howard University on winning their first ever NCAA tournament game defeating UMBC 86-83 and advancing to play Michigan! Great job Bison players, Coach Kenneth Blakeney and my long time friend - Athletic Director Kery Davis!

I want to wish my good friend, former NFL Quarterback and USC All-American Rodney Peete a very happy birthday!

Congratulations to all the incredible actors, actresses, and talented creatives that won Oscars at the 98th Academy Awards last night! I want to send a special congratulations to Sinners’ winners - Ryan Coogler for Best Original Screenplay, Michael B. Jordan for Best Lead Actor, Ludwig Goransson for Original Score, and Autumn Durald Arkapaw for being the first woman to win Best Cinematography!

Luka’s fall away jump shot sealed the victory for the Lakers 127-125. Luka ended with a 30 point, 11 rebound, 13 assist triple double and got a lot of help from Austin Reaves who sent the game into OT. The Lakers were down three with five seconds to go. Reaves got fouled, made the first free throw and missed the second but got his rebound and made a crucial game-tying shot! He ended with 32 points.
