Six-time gold medalist Tina Charles won two national championships with the University of Connecticut, so she was naturally feeling a little proud Tuesday night when UConn won its third consecutive NCAA title with a win over Notre Dame.

Social media was just one of many outlets for congratulatory notes that poured in Sunday night, when two-time U.S. Olympic gold medalist Kobe Bryant passed Michael Jordan for third on the NBA’s all-time scoring list. While Twitter shout-outs came from the likes of Magic Johnson, Yasiel Puig and Snoop Dogg, here’s one from Bryant’s former Lakers teammate Pau Gasol, who also competed against Bryant in the Olympics as a member of Spain’s national team.
Happy I got to celebrate my birthday with my brothers on the court tonight and with the best fans in the country! Thanks everyone!

Toronto Raptors guard DeMar DeRozan, a member of the USA Men’s National Team that took gold at the 2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup, has been out with an injured groin. That gave him this opportunity to work on a possible future career as a broadcaster when his playing days are over.

Sue Bird happens to be the most decorated FIBA World Championship athlete in history, male or female, having now won three golds (2002, 2010, 2014) and one bronze medal (2006). As the WNBA’s Twitter account was nice enough to point out, Bird has had unprecedented success as a pro as well.
