The Dallas Mavericks lost to Toronto last night 123-120. In the loss, Luka Doncic recorded his second triple-double in less than a week. With this, he becomes the youngest teenager to record a 30 point triple-double and the only teenager to have two triple-doubles.

In the Pro Bowl, which was really a glorified touch football game in the rain, the AFC beat the NFC 26-7. The Super Bowl is this Sunday in Atlanta.

An estimated crowd of 35,000 turned out at Gillette Stadium for the New England Patriots’ Super Bowl rally Sunday morning, giving the team an emotional lift before boarding its flight to Atlanta. Bill Belichick, dressed in a suit and tie, then thanked the crowd that filled the entire playing field and lower section of the stadium. The team’s decision to depart Sunday contributed to the large turnout. Last year, the Patriots departed for the Super Bowl on Monday.

In the latest twist to the still-simmering controversy from last Sunday’s NFC Championship Game, there is some concern in league circles about the NFL’s judgment in allowing four game officials who live in Southern California to work the game between the Los Angeles Rams and New Orleans Saints. Those same four officials — all with long ties to Southern California — were the ones most responsible for the non-call on Rams cornerback’s early, helmet-to-helmet hit on Saints wide receiver Tommylee Lewis that was widely viewed as pass interference.
