Catherine StrawnMarch 18, 2009 //

In case you tune out whenever sports news comes on TV, there’s a little thing called March Madness going on right now. The college basketball teams who will compete have been announced, and the games begin tomorrow.

A lot of men and women, including President Barack Obama, spend hours trying to figure out the brackets so they can win pools and whatnot. We here at The Frisky aren’t as interested in basketball scores, statistics, or team rankings. No, we care more about who the hottest player is.

I’ve always hated the Lakers because they’re like the Yankees of basketball — almost always awesome and annoying. Also, I really enjoy the lovely St. Paddy’s green of the Celtics outfits, er, uniforms. Anyway, Kevin Garnett is, like, the Celtics superstar. I tried to find a really attractive photo of him but apparently it’s very hard to make a sexy face while slam-dunking so I decided to pick out the most enthusiastic photo instead. Keep reading »
