Lakers guard Jeremy Lin has shown to have quite the sense of humor this summer, so you know he had to have some fun with fans at Madame Tussauds Wax Museum in San Francisco. Lin does a good job of scaring the pants off some unsuspecting viewers.

After a very successful 17-year career, point guard Chauncey Billups finally decided to hang them up today. We’ll miss the never-ending confidence, passing ability and, of course, the clutch shots. Here’s some of the best highlights from Billups’ career as we say good-bye to Mr. Big Shot.

They may have been fierce competitors through the years and only had limited time together as teammates, but Clippers guard Chris Paul had to pay some respect to one of his mentors and best friends as he steps away from the game.

Dunks of the Day

With the way Slovenia was playing defense, Team USA and James Harden could have done a number of different things to get some points. He unselfishly chooses to reward his big man Kenneth Faried for running the floor and finishes the slam with aggression.

Wow, pro dunker Desmond “Problem Child” Faulcon showed why nobody should jump on him twice. These young men made foolish decisions to challenge Desmond and he taught them a valuable lesson.

Derrick Rose, folks. Four Slovenian defenders means nothing to D-Rose coming down the lane.

Lakers forward Nick Young doesn’t need his game shoes or even shorts to ball, so you know he would jump at the opportunity to get in some run with some local kids on the courts of New York City. No effort needed, Young will still get buckets.
