Bobby Bonilla may be the most famous recipient of deferred payments in MLB history, but he's far from the only player teams have decided to effectively pay a mortgage on. Manny Ramirez is being paid until 2026, Matt Holiday until 2029, and Todd Helton gets his last payment from the Rockies this season. In fact, it's hardly rare for MLB players to get paid for years after their retirement, especially the stars.

Family in athletics is always a heart-string puller. We saw it during the Super Bowl, when the Kelce siblings went head to head for the ultimate glory. It happened again Sunday when brothers Arthur Kaluma and Adam Seiko went head to head for a spot in the NCAA Final Four. Kaluma had 12 points and five rebounds for Creighton, while Seiko finished with two assists for the Aztecs.

San Diego State senior guard Darrion Trammell was a key figure in two of the biggest moments from the Aztecs' Elite Eight win over Creighton on Sunday. The first was a controversial foul on the Bluejays' Ryan Nembhard in the game's final moments. The call sent Trammell to the foul line with 1.2 seconds remaining in the game, where he missed his first attempt to keep the game tied at 56-56.

Kansas State engaged in yet another NCAA Tournament classic on Saturday, this time against the lowest-seeded team remaining in March Madness, Florida Atlantic. Jerome Tang and the Wildcats couldn't pull off the victory, falling 79-76 in the Elite Eight. It doubtless was a difficult loss for Kansas State, considering the team was just one win away from making the Final Four.

It was a matter of time for one of the NCAA Tournament's Cinderallas on Sunday. The Creighton-San Diego State Elite Eight matchup was filled with late drama, but most of it came by way of the officials, not the players. A controversial late foul call, followed by a questionable ruling on the time remaining in the game, stained an otherwise entertaining 57-56 Aztecs win.

The junior guard scored 41 points on 11-of-19 shooting — including 8 of 14 from 3 — while adding 10 rebounds, 12 assists and three steals in the Hawkeyes' 97-83 victory.
