Tweet of the Day: Kevin Love, Russell Westbrook Among NBA Athletes Cheering For Their College Teams
One of the busiest weeks in a basketball fan’s year is underway. Bracket Week always keeps avid followers on their toes as they try to keep up with all the action leading up to Selection Sunday, which takes place tomorrow. Typically Saturday is a quiet day for basketball, but with the N.C.A.A. schedule heating up, today was anything but quiet.

Tweet of the Day: Damian Lillard Takes Note of Andrew Wiggins 41-Point Game
Not every day a college freshman scores 41 points, actually, it’s only been done twice in the past 18 years. If any kid is going to amaze, it’s Andrew Wiggins. On Saturday Wiggins lit up the West Virginia Mountaineers with 41 points in a losing effort that saw his Kansas Jayhawks falling 92-86. The 41 points are impressive, but how he did it is even better. On only 17 shots he somehow managed to score nearly half of his team’s points. Portland Trail Blazers
Tweet of the Day: Kevin Love Praises Joakim Noah
Joakim Noah is a quiet warrior. The 6-foot-11 Chicago Bulls center has become the team’s best healthy player and even one of the NBA’s best players and he did it completely under the radar. Noah jumped into a leadership role when Derrick Rose tore his meniscus in November. The Bulls have won 21 of 29 games since Jan. 1, an East best. Chicago even managed to keep winning after losing Luol Deng via trade two months ago. On Sunday the Bulls hosted
Tweet of the Day: Jarron Collins Happy For His Brother Jason
Today is a very, very big step forward in professional sports. On Sunday the NBA made history as the first of the four major professional sports leagues to sign an openly gay athlete.

But that will finally change thanks to a Brooklyn Nets organization that isn’t afraid to do what’s right. It’s expected a 10-day contract will be finalized later Sunday and
Tweet of the Day: Metta World Peace Announces Contract Buyout with Knicks
It wasn’t the fairytale anyone was hoping for in New York. From bad loss to bad loss, player injuries and constant trade rumors, the most dysfunctional organization in the NBA sunk a little lower Saturday. Knicks forward Metta World Peace tweeted he and his agent were working on a buyout with the team. Thank NYC for everything. Thanks for having me I will always be grateful… My agent is working on a buyout. No disrespect to the city Luv U — Metta World Peace
Tweet of the Day: Ben McLemore Gearing Up For Slam Dunk Contest
Engrave today’s date in your head, as tonight’s slam dunk competition could be worth remembering. NBA All-Star 2014 marks only the second time that the Sprite Slam Dunk competition will feature three All-Star Game participants. In recent years, fans have become accustom to doing a web search on half of the players in the competition. In the year 2000, Vince Carter rocked the rims and probably had the best dunk contest of all-time. In 2003 we saw Jason Richardson score perfect fifties. A
