Is it even possible that Ladarius Marshall is an 8th grader? Marshall recently threw down a 360 dunk in a game. Incredible. This kid is unreal and you can bet he will be at the top and may just lead the class of 2018. Do you think anyone is trying to recruit him yet...

Pretty sure Matt Record was the talk of the town for this spectacular effort right before the halftime buzzer of the Hoops for Hope charity tournament championship in Manchester, New York.  Halfcourt shots might be a dime a dozen, but when an 11 or 12 year-old uses every muscle he has to chuck a ball well over 40 feet from the basket it is an amazing feat that doesn’t happen very often in that age

Imagine you are in the stands for a afternoon of watching you child play basketball and then a fight breaks out. But its not the kids fighting, its the coach and a parent. Wow. Last week it was a hockey ref slamming a kid to the ice and this week its a parent and a coach fighting...

A lot of these shots are being made this year and I believe the OKC Thunder had four winners for their half court shot in the first month of the season or something crazy like that. Enter this guy. He had to make a layup, a free throw, a three pointer and a half court shot all in :25 seconds and he did it with an unreal final shot...

The 63rd NBA All Star Game was last night and the East beat the West 163-155. Kyrie Irving had 31 points and 14 assists and was voted the game's MVP. Carmelo Anthony scored 30 points. For the West, Blake Griffin and Kevin Durant had 38 points.

One of my favorite things about the NBA's all star weekend was the Slam Dunk Contest.  I remember the great duels I saw between Michael Jordan and Dominique  Wilkins. I even remember when Spud Webb, Vince Carter, Kenny "Sky" Walker and Kobe Bryant winning the contest...

Everyone loves a good lob for a dunk, right? Especially win it is for the win! I'm not sure what was better, catching the lob or the lob itself? You be the judge. Either way, this was a pretty amazing play for a couple of high school guys...

March is the famously exciting month for college basketball. It's pretty much all hands on deck for people who love the marathon of games. But even if you know nothing about basketball, you'll probably fill out a bracket predicting the winners of each round, if only in the name of school spirit.

Check out this video of Sacramento Kings forward Derrick Williams attempting to be a Harlem Globetrotters  by trying an off-the-backboard self alley-oop dunk against the Chicago Bulls last night.
