Chargers Win With 2-Pt Conversion, Wentz Fractured Back, Harden’s 4th Career 50-Pt Triple-Double
FOOTBALL
The Los Angeles Chargers had an exciting and important win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday night. In the 4th quarter, the Chargers were down 14 points and came back in a dramatic fashion. With only 4 seconds left in the game, the Chargers could have kicked the extra point to tie the game and go into overtime but instead went for the 2-point conversion and won. The Chargers clinch their first playoff berth since 2013. Chargers 29, Chiefs 28.
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz has a fractured back but will not require surgery. He’s not expected to play on Sunday against the Rams, but if the Eagles make the playoffs, it’s possible he’ll be healthy enough to continue the season. Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles will step in on Sunday for Wentz.
BASKETBALL
Houston Rockets’ James Harden scored 50 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists in a win over the Los Angeles Lakers. This was Harden’s 4th career 50 point triple-double and the most in NBA history. In what’s been a disappointing year so far for the Rockets, Harden’s performance pushed the team to their second straight win of the season. Rockets 126, Lakers 111.
