Although the NBA regular season continues to mesmerize, the NCAA March Madness has dazzled one and all so far. With an engaging mix of quality performances and surprise packages, the youngsters are taking college basketball to the next level this year. Following some enthralling action, we are down to the final four teams now. Who’s taking home the coveted title this time around?
Speaking of action that is currently trending, the 94th Academy Awards provided some thrill to fans worldwide. The evergreen Will Smith, who arguably delivered his career-best performance in ‘King Richard’, walked away with the title of ‘Best Actor’. However, in spite of his iconic success, a rather forgettable incident hogged a vast majority of the limelight.

Unfortunately, fans are still recovering from what they witnessed at the Oscars, and seemed rather uninterested in American youth basketball’s top flight.
