West Virginia football MORGANTOWN — No. 6 Oklahoma (11-1, 8-1 Big 12) beat No. 13 West Virginia (9-3, 6-3 Big 12) in an absolute thriller Friday night, 59-56.  Oklahoma and West Virginia both came out hot, ending the first quarter tied at 14. The Sooners would return a fumble for a touchdown right before the half to take a 35-28 lead into the locker room.  The Sooners had an opportunity to really put their foot on the Mountaineers throat, but an interception thrown by Kyler Murray in the back of the endzone would lead to West Virginia tying the game. The Mountaineers would also take a 42-38 lead into the fourth quarter. The Sooners and Mountaineers would go back and forth to start the fourth quarter, ad when Oklahoma was up 52-49 with just nine minutes to play, Curtis Bolton made the play of the game. Bolton would scoop and score on a 48-yard fumble return for a touchdown. West Virginia would cut the game to three with four minutes to play, but an on-side kick recovery

Josh Hart  •   Los Angeles Lakers  •   Utah Jazz The up-and-coming 23-year-old shooting guard had a strained ankle tendon and was questionable before Friday's game against his old team. Hart played through the injury during Thursday's 109-105 win over Cleveland Cavaliers after briefly having to leave the court. But his performance clearly suffered, as he picked up just four points and four rebounds. Originally the number 30 pick in the 2017 NBA Draft by the Jazz, Hart was traded to the Lakers along with number 42 pick Thomas Bryant in exchange for number 28 pick Tony Bradley. oklahoma vs west virginia derrick rose washington vs washington state donovan mitchell lakers vs jazz lakers tickets nba tv lakers jazz jazz vs lakers utah jazz roster nbatv blazers vs warriors lakers vs jazz reddit lakers vs jazz live stream lakers live stream jazz lakers lakers vs utah lakers vs jazz live stream reddit lakers jazz reddit warriors vs blazers lakers live utah jazz recor

Last month, as center Damian Jones exceeded expectations in the Warriors’ starting lineup, head coach Steve Kerr knew that growing pains loomed. After two seasons Jones, 23, was still learning all that the NBA demands. A few impressive performances against elite big men in October overshadowed the fact that he had yet to master such basics as boxing out or staying out of foul trouble. Less than a fourth of the way through his first full-time NBA season, the 7-foot, 245-pound Jones is struggling to capitalize on his immense tools. With Stephen Curry and Draymond Green out with injuries, he has been inconsistent, forcing Kerr to tinker with his center rotation. After starting the first 16 games of the season, Jones came off the bench in recent losses to Dallas and San Antonio. In Wednesday’s game against Oklahoma City, Kerr shuffled him back into the starting lineup to match up with the 7-foot, 265-pound Steven Adams, only for Jones to get bullied on both sides of the court.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - LeBron James had 22 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists, and he seized control of an ugly game with nine points in the fourth quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers' seventh win in eight games, 90-83 over the Utah Jazz on Friday night. Brandon Ingram scored 24 points while the Lakers struggled in their first game back from an Eastern Conference road trip, committing 24 turnovers and managing just 10 assists all night. Neither team took a commanding lead in the second half until James hit a layup and a 3-pointer on consecutive possessions with 3:15 to play. James then blocked a shot by Alec Burks in the final seconds as Los Angeles held on to snap its seven-game skid against Utah. Donovan Mitchell scored four points before he bruised his ribs in the second quarter and didn't return, depriving the Jazz of their top scorer. Burks scored 17 points and Joe Ingles had 16 for the Jazz, who have lost three straight and five of six. Neither team did much to
