If you’ve been wondering what former Washington Wizards star Gilbert Arenas has been up to, apparently he’s been training Lebron James’ son Bronny.

Apparently, LeBron got in touch with Arenas recently and asked him to keep an eye on his son during a training session.

As Arenas explained to NBC Sports Washington’s Chris Miller, “LeBron hit me on Instagram and said ‘My son is starting to train and he’s training with Dribble2Much. Can you go over there and put some eyes on him and let me know because I’m kind of worried about him.’ I went there, watched him, and gave him some pointers.”

After the session, Arenas had great things to report to his old friend: “He’s your clone, you don’t need to be worried,” he told LeBron. “Just from looking at him, you were probably taller, you’ve got the same speed, he probably jumps higher, passes probably the same, IQ probably the same, he shoots better and dribbles better.”

LeBron’s response to Arenas? “That is actually correct”

Bronny is currently 16 years old and is ranked 25th in the nation for his class, ESPN reports. He currently has offers to play basketball for colleges such as Kentucky, UCLA, Duke, Kansas, and North Carolina.

The NCAA crowned a new champion on Monday night after the Virginia Cavaliers defeated Texas Tech.

The men’s basketball tournament final went to overtime, but the #1 seed Cavaliers pulled out a narrow 85-77 win. In doing so, they claimed their first-ever NCAA Men’s Basketball championship.

What made their win even more special is that it came only one year after they lost in the first round as a #1 seed to the 16th seed UMBC Retrievers, the first time a #1 seed had ever lost in the first round of the tournament.

It wasn’t easy for Virginia, which had to deal with a plucky Texas Tech team that scrapped and clawed their way through the game. Two halves weren’t enough to decide a winner, so the teams went to overtime.

In overtime, the Cavaliers, coached by Tony Bennett, finally pulled away. They outscored Tech by eight in the five extra minutes to seal the victory.

DeAndre Hunter and Kyle Guy led the way for Virginia, scoring 27 and 24 points in the championship game, respectively.

It was a National Championship game for the ages. One year after reaching the program’s lowest point, Virginia found redemption and claimed the crown.

Despite losing at home to 8th ranked North Carolina on Wednesday night, the worst news that the Duke Blue Devils might have gotten is that their sensational freshman Zion Williamson suffered a knee injury early in the game.

Williamson, who is considered the top player in college basketball and the favorite to be the first pick in this year’s NBA Draft, suffered a bizarre knee injury in the early moments of last night´s game against Duke´s bitter rivals.

The 6´7¨, 285 pound forward jumped and planted his right foot to drive towards the basket when his shoe literally exploded.

This strange turn of the events caused Williamson to fall to the ground, clutching his knee, leaving Duke fans and NBA GMs alike in a state of concern as he left the court with an injury.

Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski announced after the game that the injury was a ¨mild knee sprain,¨ which allayed fans´deepest fears about what could have been a serious injury.

Duke suffered without their star player and eventually lost the game 88 to 72 against their bitter rivals.

The game was played in front of celebrities such as former US president Barack Obama and film director Spike Lee, as well as a cadre of NBA scouts and decision makers.
