NBA Finals madness, MLB players making stellar players and more as we curate the internet to bring you the top 8 highlights from Monday.
8. Ian Desmond blasts the baseball out to Wyoming
The Rookies Ian Desmond blast a homer 486 feet, the longest of any player this season. Desmond hit the ball so far that we heard a farmer in Wyoming caught the ball. That’s what we heard, anyway.

1. Stephen Curry says “See you in Oakland”
The Warriors could have easily packed it in. They could have called it a dynasty. They could have finalized their vacations plans. Stephen Curry, however, had plans of his own. His plan? To send this series back to The Town for Game 6.
Mission accomplished.
