Every Sunday, theScore highlights the week's lighter moments from around the basketball universe. Here's what caught our eye this week.

Steal and the slam

The following clip is like inbounding the ball directly to your opponent, then politely standing under the hoop while he windmills on your head.

You can tell from the speaker's confused response of "aw-waaayy?" that he wasn't expecting Richard Jefferson to end his marriage.

More heat than the Snack Attack

With Jackson State up big on senior night, the team decided to unleash the Snack Attack.

Checking in late, student manager Thomas "Snacks" Lee made his NCAA debut and quickly ripped off a deep 3-ball.

SNACKS!

Nets star Kevin Durant even took notice, sending Snacks a signed jersey.

Snacks forever.

Crappy love advice

Did LeBron James have one too many glasses of a vintage Tuscan red on Friday night? The Lakers star posted a graphic on Instagram which stood out from his usual oeuvre, which primarily consists of action shots of himself, pics of his family, and thinly veiled Nike ads.

This is the sort of thing my 75-year-old dad posts on Facebook after drinking three hard lemonades.

Now, rewatch the clip while focusing entirely on Tony Allen's bizarre performance in the background. What caused "The Grindfather" to shake his hand in the air emphatically? We may never know.

Playing 3D chess

Toronto basketball fans took umbrage with Dennis Scott's preseason prediction that the reigning champs would miss the playoffs, so when the Raptors (currently 44-18) officially clinched their playoff berth on Thursday, fans were quick to remind "3D" that they hadn't forgotten his forecast.

The Raptors' social media team also had some fun at Scott's expense.

(The team cropped out Sam Mitchell's slightly less insulting prediction that the Raptors would finish eighth in the East. Mitchell, who won the Coach of the Year award with Toronto in 2007, currently works as an analyst for TSN. The network is partially owned by Bell, which owns a large percentage of the Raptors' parent company, Maple Leafs Sports and Entertainment.)

He'd teach you, but he'd have to charge

With the Philadelphia 76ers' rotation dealing with significant injuries, previously unheralded players like second-year guard Shake Milton have gotten some extra run in of late. You may recall his 39-point deluge against the Clippers last Sunday.

In a very relatable moment, one Kings fan was caught looking Milton up during Thursday's game.

Fun fact: Milton, whose first name is actually Malik, has always gone by "Shake" because his late father's nickname was "The Milkman." Not only is that a great origin story, but Shake is the perfect name for the crafty guard.

Hold your applause

With the B.League on hold due to the coronavirus, fans of Japan's premier domestic league will have to settle for highlights of seasons past. Don't worry; your friends at Weird Week have you covered.

This clip of former Lakers center Robert Sacre in the B.League dunk contest made the rounds on its two-year anniversary this week, and ... woof. Just watch.

Not even Dwyane Wade would rate this effort a nine.

Tony Allen was once on the receiving end of a brutal punch by former Boston Celtics teammate Glen "Big Baby" Davis.

In a Q-and-A with Michael C. Wright of NBA.com, Allen shared a story about Paul Pierce bringing in boxing gloves so Celtics players could settle their differences.

"(Pierce) said, 'You know what, from now on I ain't gonna raise my voice at nobody,'" Allen recalled. "He said, 'If I've got a problem, we're putting on the gloves' ... He was like, 'I've got gloves for everybody because I'm tired of everybody bickering.' Just in case, he had all sizes."

Allen selected Davis as his opponent, which turned out to be a mistake.

"I remember me trying to get my first little couple of swings at him, and all I can remember is Glen Davis knocking me out. Boom. I fell," Allen said. "They said, 'Awww, he's knocked out.' They all started laughing and running.

"That was probably one of the most weird ways to bring in camaraderie and bring in love and togetherness. But it was funny, man."

Allen played for the Celtics from 2004-10 and won a championship with the team in 2008 before joining the Memphis Grizzlies.

The Chicago Bulls officially waived Tony Allen on Friday, putting the veteran defensive specialist on the free-agent market.

Interested suitors include the Oklahoma City Thunder and Houston Rockets, sources told NBA TV's David Aldridge.

The 36-year-old Allen is coming off an injury, but his still-pesky perimeter defense is something many contenders could use off the bench.

While not much of an offensive factor any longer, Allen did shoot 48 percent from the floor in 22 games with the New Orleans Pelicans this season.

Do you have NBA trade deadline withdrawal? Don't fret, the post-deadline free-agent/buyout market is here! Which past-their-prime players figure to be available, and which contenders could they land with?

Marco Belinelli

The Atlanta Hawks were reportedly asking for second-round picks in exchange for veterans Belinelli and Ersan Ilyasova, but after the deadline, the pair remained in Atlanta. On Friday, Belinelli was reportedly bought out, and he'll be highly sought-after. His career 37.7 percent success rate from downtown is a hot commodity this time of year.

Potential landing spots: Thunder, Raptors, Heat.

Channing Frye

It's uncertain yet if the Los Angeles Lakers will buy Frye out, but he's sure to garner a ton of interest if he becomes a free agent. Like Belinelli, he's a 3-point threat, but as a big who stretches the floor. As a 34-year-old, 13-year NBA veteran, he's also a highly regarded locker room presence.

Potential landing spots: Raptors, Rockets, Warriors (don't laugh, they may be interested).

Joe Johnson

Iso Joe isn't the same player he used to be, yet he carries enough weight with his career 16.2 points per game playoff average that virtually every contender should place a call when he's bought out by the Sacramento Kings, as expected.

Potential landing spots: Celtics, Warriors, Rockets

Tony Allen

The 36-year-old Allen is currently injured but was waived by the Chicago Bulls Friday. While he's not really a factor offensively, his still-pesky perimeter defense is something many contenders could use off the bench.

Potential landing spots: Thunder, Cavaliers, Rockets

Derrick Rose

How the mighty have fallen. Rose is seven years removed from an MVP season, and critics are calling out his Adidas contract. Still, he could be a useful pickup down the stretch. Given Tom Thibodeau's penchant for his former Bulls players, Minnesota remains the favorite when Rose is bought out by the Utah Jazz.

Potential landing spots: Timberwolves, Thunder

Honorable mentions

Vince Carter: It was reported Thursday that the Raptors would consider bringing back the franchise legend if he's bought out by the Kings. However, there's no indication that will happen. When he was in Toronto in December, Carter said he's not necessarily a ring-chaser.

"I still want to get on the floor," he told reporters, including theScore. "It's not guaranteed on some of those elite teams who's already established and I'm just not ready for that."

Joakim Noah: While Noah is reportedly opposed to a buyout from the New York Knicks, he has the worst contract in the NBA right now. He is almost certainly done playing for the Knicks, and while he's a shell of his former self on the court, you know Thibodeau is interested in his former Defensive Player of the Year.

Boris Diaw: "Bobo" is reportedly interested in an NBA return, and could help in the right situation. His effectiveness dropped off as a member of the Jazz in 2016-17, but he was a key contributor with the San Antonio Spurs before that.

With Andre Roberson ruled out for the remainder of the season with a ruptured left patellar tendon, the Oklahoma City Thunder are scouring the league to find a defensive wing to fill the void left in the lineup.

Already linked to Los Angeles Clippers guard Avery Bradley, the Thunder have also reportedly had talks with the Chicago Bulls concerning Tony Allen's expiring contract, league sources told The Chicago Tribune's K.C. Johnson.

Allen was recently acquired by Chicago, along with veteran guard Jameer Nelson, Omer Asik, and a protected first-round draft pick, from the New Orleans Pelicans in a package for Nikola Mirotic.

He has yet to join the team, and will be waived if the team can't find a suitor for him on the trade market prior to Thursday's deadline.

The 36-year-old has made three All-Defensive First Teams and another three All-Defensive Second Teams across his 14 seasons in the Association.

Allen has been out of action since Dec. 10 after suffering a non-displaced left proximal fibula fracture. Allen's original recovery time was set at three-to-four weeks, but a setback resulted in him being ruled out an extra two-to-four weeks.

He's working under an inexpensive one-year, $2.1-million contract he inked with the Pelicans in September, and averaged 4.7 points and 2.1 rebounds across 22 appearances while in The Big Easy.
