‘The Best in Sports’ is a daily PSO original series showcasing the best highlights, facts, and stories going on in the land of the NFL, NBA, & MLB every day. Get a recap on EVERYTHING that happened yesterday here.
FBS ranked #2 LSU vs. #3 Alabama was the biggest sports event of the day. From a pro perspective, there were plenty of high-quality NFL Draft prospects playing in that game that shined in the national spotlight.
There are five defensive backs in this Alabama-LSU game that could go in the top 50 of the 2020 NFL Draft. I ranked them here: https://t.co/XWCXvfGrkz
Brandon Ingram continues to impress in his new New Orleans jersey as he’s in the midst of a contract year.

One of the NBA’s most exciting players will return to action on Monday after missing the first 10 games of the season with knee & hamstring issues.
Blake Griffin, sidelined through the first ten games of the 2019-20 campaign, is planning to make his return on Monday. The Pistons went 4-6 while he recovered from knee and hamstring issues. https://t.co/JVt2Svpvmb
Gordon Hayward’s fractured hand headlined NBA’s Saturday action, while Kyle Lowry & Serge Ibaka will both miss considerable time for the defending NBA Champions.
Two weeks for Lowry (thumb) …. hard to see it being longer, tbh; will be able to train while out. The ‘indefinitely’ for Serge is a little concerning but you never know, could just mean they’ll take it week by week: pic.twitter.com/g40lbjnas6
A couple of significant players that have been healthy all season will miss this week’s games after taking on some damage in Week 9.
Kyle Shanahan says TE George Kittle is doubtful for the Seahawks. Seattle could be catching a huge break. We’ve all said how much trouble the #49ers would be in if they lost Kittle. @patoholloway hopes we were all wrong. https://t.co/6ui7js6YI4
#PlayerOfTheDay James Harden put together another MVP-caliber performance on Saturday by taking over in Chicago w/ 44 PTS, 10 REB, 9 AST. The reigning scoring champ is leading the NBA once again with 36+ PPG for the 2nd consecutive year https://t.co/7V0APqCKvj
