As a fan, it’s a wonderful experience to be able to sit courtside to see NBA players up close. Every so often, though, a player may be coming at you full speed to chase after a loose ball and that’s when your life may flash before your eyes depending on who that player is. For star golfer Jason Day’s wife, that player happened to be LeBron James, who jumped right into her while chasing after the ball during Thursday’s game against the
Tweet of the Night: Evan Fournier not thrilled to see his name misspelled by NBA.com

Tweet of the Night: Gerald Henderson can’t believe the lineup utilized by the Rockets against Kings
The Golden State Warriors re-popularized the use of small-ball lineups last season when they won the NBA Finals by utilizing it, and have further showed the dominant abilities of it this season with a lineup featuring Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Andre Iguodala, Harrison Barnes and Draymond Green.

DeAndre Jordan’s one and only weapon on offense is dunking the ball, and he does it better than just about anyone else his size with his freakish athleticism. Knowing this, players around the league rarely look to defend him when he is airborne. Why?
