It sure is nice to be in the Roc family! LOLz!

Jay-Z has given basketball player Skylar Diggins a brand new car for her graduation — that's right, graduating from Notre Dame while having Jay-Z as representation will earn you a free-ass MERCEDES BENZ!

Here's what Roc Nation Sports said:

It's not so much that Spider-Man is "dunking" on some "chumps" as it is that Spider-Man is "playing some basketball" with a "few kids." LOLz!

How cool is this — and more importantly, how cool is this for these kids?? Spider-Man had some down time while shooting his upcoming sequel to The Amazing Spider-Man (and smooching Emma Stone's face off), so he decided to shoot some hoops with the locals in Chinatown!

Seriously, even though he's not doing anything Spider-Manish, we bet these kids minds were blown!

That's SUPER nice of him to stop by! We just don't know if it's Andrew Garfield in there FOR SURE or just a stunt man, but either way whoever is doing it is radness to the maxxx! Plus, the kids seem to think it's actually him!

Ha!

Kevin Durant has just gone from a basketball icon to a full-on hero in Oklahoma!

But the real guest of honor was none other than Jason Collins, who earned the title of Inspirational Athlete of the year for his decision to become the first active player to come out as openly gay in a major U.S. sport!

The trailblazing center said:

Break out the vino people, because Kobe Bryant is here to stay!

After tearing his achilles tendon in a nasty season-ending injury against the Golden State Warriors, people began to wonder whether or not the 34 year-old baller still had any gas left in the tank.

Well the Los Angeles Laker legend heard the retirement rumors and took to Twitter to weigh in on the issue:

International movie star families are cool and all, but they aren't above getting photobombed by wacky dudes in loud jackets — NO WAY!

Will Smith and his son Jaden's bonding time (before Jaden wants nothing to do with his fam!) was secretly interrupted by a reporter just behind them, giving the cheesiest smile we've ever seen!

The mystery guy was sports reporter Craig Sager, wearing a pink plaid suit! He even waved for cameras as they focused on the father-and-son duo! LOLz!

There really isn't much to this story past that it happened, and it was AMAZEBALLZ! Ha!

Sacramento Kings fans rejoice! It looks like your beloved basketball team is here to stay!
