RIVERSIDE — Three large tents were erected on the tarmac of March Air Reserve Base — where 195 coronavirus evacuees remained under federal quarantine orders — as a precaution in case additional planes carrying passengers who need medical screening are unexpectedly rerouted to the base, officials said Sunday.

The tents were set up to meet a request from federal officials to provide enough housing at the facility for at least 250 more people in individual rooms in case a plane carrying passengers who need to be medically screened is temporarily diverted to March ARB, such as in the case of bad weather or for refueling, according to Brooke Federico, a public information officer for Riverside County’s County Executive Office.

“Because of the time involved in constructing the tents, officials decided to have them in place in case any planes were unexpectedly diverted to March (ARB),” Federico said.

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Patrick Mahomes needed just the waning minutes of Super Bowl 54 to end a whole lot of frustration.

A championship 50 years in the making for the Kansas City Chiefs.

A two-decade wait for an NFL title for coach Andy Reid.

All it took was falling behind by double digits in the postseason, again. Then Mahomes found his mojo. The 24-year-old quarterback who was selected Super Bowl MVP, led the Chiefs to 21 straight points in the final 6:13 for a 31-20 victory Sunday over the San Francisco 49ers.

“We never lost faith,” Mahomes said. “That’s the biggest thing. Everybody on this team, no one had their head down. We believed in each other. That’s what we preached all year long.”

The Chiefs (15-4) trailed 24-0 and 17-7 in their previous playoff games, both in the first half. In the big game, they nearly didn’t have time for a comeback.

Kansas City’s fans in the crowd of 62,417 at Hard Rock Stadium got little opportunity to chant and do the tomahawk chop as KC fell behind 20-10 in the third quarter. Mahomes even threw his second interception of the night after they fell behind.

But the vaunted 49ers defense wilted late and Mahomes brought the magic that makes him special.

He completed passes of 44 yards to Tyreek Hill and 38 to Sammy Watkins. The touchdowns came on short throws to Travis Kelce to cut the deficit to three and to Damien Williams for the lead. The first NFL title in Chiefs coach Reid’s two-decade career was clinched by Williams’ 38-yard TD run, sending red-clad Chiefs fans into chants of “Andy!” Andy!”

Reid, 61, won a Super Bowl ring with the 1996 Packers while in charge of tight ends. He’s been seeking one as a head coach since being hired by Philadelphia in 1999. The Eagles lost in their only trip to the big game under Reid after the 2004 season.

“This is what it’s all about,” Reid said as confetti fell and the Chiefs celebrated the climax of the NFL’s 100th season. “What a great team, great coaches. Appreciate every bit of it.”

Mahomes found Hill, whose bobble led to the second San Francisco pick, for 44 yards on a third-and-15 — the first long pass completed by Kansas City. A 20-yard pass interference call on Tarvarius Moore, who had that earlier pick, put the ball at the 1 and Kelce was wide open for the score.

The Chiefs defense, confounded by the Niners’ misdirection much of the game, got stingy and forced a three-and-out. Mahomes soon hit Watkins down the right sideline behind Richard Sherman for a 38-yard gain, leading to Williams’ first score.

San Francisco (15-4) had nothing left in the fourth quarter, and its coach, Kyle Shanahan saw yet another late-game meltdown by his team. Three years ago, as offensive coordinator in Atlanta, he was part of the Falcons’ Super Bowl collapse and loss in overtime to New England.

“We’ll lick our wounds and we’ll get over this,” Shanahan said.

Kansas City, an original AFL franchise, won the final Super Bowl before the full merger, beating Minnesota in 1970. Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt even coined the phrase Super Bowl.

Now the Hunt family can add a Vince Lombardi Trophy to the Lamar Hunt Trophy earned with the AFC crown.

“It’s a beautiful trophy,” Chiefs owner Clark Hunt said. “I’m so happy for our players, coaches and fans. And especially Andy Reid. Nobody deserves this trophy more than Andy Reid.”

San Francisco went 4-12 in 2018 and Shanahan was on something of a hot seat this season. He came close to a ring once again, but down the stretch the Niners couldn’t slow the no-huddle attack at which Mahomes, Hill, Kelce, Williams and all the other Chiefs excel.

“We have heart,” Mahomes said. “We never give up and those guys around us, the leaders on the team , have that mindset that we never give up.”

The fourth quarter fireworks by the Chiefs were along the lines of the expected offensive explosion. Earlier, there were some strong drives but not a lot of huge plays.

The 49ers used up nearly six minutes on their opening drive, yet got only Robbie Gould’s 38-yard field goal. Kansas City took up 7:26 for its next march, including a fourth-and-1 run by Williams on a direct snap to the 49ers 1. All four Chiefs in the backfield spun around before the snap.

Mahomes took it in to end the 15-play series on a run option.

The 7-3 deficit was the first for San Francisco since Game 15. It soon became 10-3 after Jimmy Garoppolo’s ill-advised lob under pressure was intercepted by Bashaud Breeland. Another fourth-down gamble paid off for KC, with Williams gaining 3 on a pitchout. But the Chiefs stalled and Harrison Butker kicked a 31-yard field goal.

San Francisco needed a spark and, as it often has this season, the running game provided it. Gouging the Chiefs in the trenches, the 49ers gained 53 yards on five straight rushes before Garoppolo hit on a pair of passes. The second completion, over the middle to Kyle Juszczyk, saw the fullback look like anything but with a nifty open-field move past safety Daniel Sorensen — perhaps Kansas City’s best tackle. J uszczyk surged into the end zone for a 15-yard TD to tie it at 10.

Once more, Garoppolo was brilliant on a drive after being picked off. He improved 39 for 42 for 461 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions with a 136.2 rating on such series after the TD.

Gould’s 42-yarder gave the Niners their first lead, capping the opening drive of the second half. Again, their misdirection plays kept the Chiefs off-balance on defense.

As Garoppolo did in the first half, Mahomes then threw into heavy coverage trying to hit Hill and was picked by Fred Warner. It was the first interception of Mahomes in five postseason games.

And it paid off with another efficient series for the Niners, keyed by a 26-yard completion to Kendrick Bourne on third down. Raheem Mostert, the star of the NFC title game, surged in from the 1 for a 20-10 edge.

Hardly unfamiliar territory for Kansas City.

“We have an ability as a team not just on offense, as team, to figure out what the other team is doing and put our foot in the ground and say enough is enough,” Kelce said. “It’s special.”

From Kansas City Chief’s first win in 50 years during Sunday’s biggest football game, Shakira and Jennifer Lopez rocking the halftime show stage to Demi Lovato’s goosebump-inducing national anthem performance, no Super Bowl is complete without the funny, star-studded and sometimes off-beat commercials.

3. The commercial with a plan, that backfired: Mr. Peanut. With shocking news late January about Mr. Peanut’s passing, Planters decided to resurrect the beloved character during his funeral with a baby version and the hashtag #BabyNut. While great in theory, it received a not safe for work response on Twitter. But points for the Mr. Clean and Kool-Aid man cameo.

Athletes of the highest caliber gathered under the same stadium Sunday, Feb. 2, for a true test of skill and endurance. No, not the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs in Miami for Super Bowl LIV — we’re talking the Aquarium of the Pacific’s sixth annual Otter Bowl.

At 3:30 p.m., around the same time as the big game kicked off, the aquarium’s four otters — Chloe, Maggie, Betty and Ollie — retired from their exhibits to the “locker rooms” to get ready. They reconvened at the Northern Pacific Gallery for the highly coveted event, where an audience of about 200 people cheered for the furry athletes.

“I really don’t even care about the (Super Bowl),” said Kate Johnson, an attendee in the crowd. “I’m here for the otters.”

“The Otter Bowl is a great tradition that acts as a form of alternative entertainment,” Aquarium Mammalogist Katie Finch said. “The  event is similar to our regular training sessions with the otters but with the scavenger hunt twist and a chance for them to each as much as possible — which can be a lot.”

Once in their arena, aquarium staff began dropping frozen clams shaped like footballs and enrichment toys into the water for the otters to begin collecting for points, as well as enjoying the snacks. The rules were simple: the otter that collected the most points would be the winner.

“The footballs and treats were made from a blend of clams, shrimp and squid,” Finch said. “Not too great sounding to humans but the otters love it.”

Otters tend to hoard their food, according to Rob Mortensen, assistant curator of mammals and birds, so it was no issue to get the otters into the spirit of the game. Aquarium educators led a play-by-play of the game, calling out each otter as they dove after treats and pounded them against the nearest surface to break them out of the ice.

The four otters splashed and thrashed in the waters, fighting for each and every treat they could get there paws on. The audience faced a dilemma: to cheer for one otter or to collectively “Aww” at anything the group did.

Even with the surplus of food the otters managed to devour most all of it in about 20 minutes. But there could be only one winner in this competition. Betty, the aquarium’s 8-year-old otter, was declared the winner. She was presented with her trophy: a large cupcake mixture of seafood; but Betty was nice enough to share it with her kin.

“The best part of this event is when people come after its ended just to see the otters knocked out from their buffet,” Finch said.

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Here where Steve Young led the 49ers to victory 25 years ago, history did not repeat in the 49ers’ favor Sunday night.

Instead, they lost a second straight Super Bowl appearance, and coach Kyle Shanahan again must wrestle with blowing a lead when the Lombardi Trophy was in sight.

The 49ers blew a 10-point, fourth-quarter lead and fell to the Kansas City Chiefs 31-20 at Hard Rock Stadium.

So much for winning a Lombardi Trophy on the same field where the 49ers won their last one a quarter century ago with Young, and where Joe Montana did so in thrilling fashion for the 1988 49ers.

Thus, the 49ers’ quest for six championships will carry on into Year 4 under Shanahan, who arrived in 2017 fresh off a Super Bowl loss in which the Atlanta Falcons blew a 28-3 lead with him as their offensive coordinator.

The 49ers failed to protect a 20-10 lead over the final 6 1/2 minutes by falling victim to Patrick Mahomes’ majestic arm.

After Mahomes delivered a 44-yard bomb to Tyreek Hill, next came touchdown strikes to Travis Kelce (1 yard) and Sammy Watkins (5 yards). That left only 2 minutes, 44 seconds for the 49ers to attempt their fifth fourth-quarter comeback win this season behind Jimmy Garoppolo.

Starting at their own 15 after Richie James’ feeble kickoff return, Garoppolo got the 49ers to midfield with completions to George Kittle (8 yards) and Kendrick Bourne (16 yards), but three incompletions followed and then came a fourth-down sack by Frank Clark.

The outcome was decided at that point. The Chiefs then rubbed it in, first with a 38-yard touchdown run by Damien Williams and a last-minute interception of a Garoppolo bomb.

The 49ers had won their first five Super Bowl appearances (in the 1981, ’84, ’88, ’89 and ’94 seasons) before falling 34-31 to the Baltimore Ravens seven years ago in Super Bowl XLVII.

Unlike that last Super Bowl run, this one came as a surprise, at least nationally, as the 49ers came off a 4-12 seasons, started 8-0 this season and clinched the NFC’s No. 1 seed with a 13-3 record.

Mahomes finished 26-of-41 for 286 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions, while Garoppolo was 20-of-31 for 219 yards with one interception and two touchdowns.

Both interceptions of Mahomes came in the third quarter, by Fred Warner and Tarvarius Moore. They appeared perfect road blocks to thwart the Chiefs’ QB and last season’s NFL MVP. Instead, they were only harmless highlights.

They were part of a bang-bang sequence out of halftime had given the Niners’ gang a 10-point lead they would need to milk. A go-ahead field-goal drive was followed by Warner’s interception, then came a Garoppolo-fueled drive that culminated in a Raheem Mostert 1-yard touchdown run for a 20-10 lead.

The Chiefs responded by driving into 49ers territory, but then Mahomes did something he hadn’t done all season: throw a second interception, this one nabbed by Tarvarius Moore out of the 49ers’ dime package they’ve rarely shown this season.

One snap after Nick Bosa forced a strip-sack fumble that the Chiefs recovered, Arik Armstead pressured Mahomes into a third-down interception Warner nabbed about 20 yards down field. The 49ers immediately had their swagger back, and defensive players raced 60 yards to the end zone for a celebratory photo.

Earlier, the 49ers reclaimed the lead (13-10) on the first series after halftime, using Robbie Gould’s 42-yard field goal to cash in a drive including 5-of-5 passing from Garoppolo. Also on that drive was a 14-yard run by Deebo Samuel, raising his game total to 53 rushing yards, the most by a wide receiver in Super Bowl history.

Kyle Juszczyk pulled the 49ers into a 10-10 tie when his 16-yard touchdown catch capped a seven-play, 80-yard drive 5:05 before halftime. Juszczyk, a Pro Bowl fullback and underrated receiver, caught the pass near his knees, spun and raced 12 yards after the catch to score, then Robbie Gould’s point-after kick squared things. The last 49ers fullback to score in a Super Bowl: William Floyd on this same field 25 years ago.

That game-tying drive started with five consecutive runs following an interception on the previous drive. Garoppolo improved to 39-of-42 fro 461 yards with three touchdown passes and no interceptions in drives immediately following an interception this season. Bolsterting that drive were runs by Mostert (9, 11 yards), Samuel (16 yards) and Tevin Coleman (17 yards).

Just as fans clamored over a conservative ending to the first half, Garoppolo found Jeff Wilson for a 20-yard gain on third-and-5, then came a 42-yard dime to George Kittle at the Chiefs’ 13, only to see officials nullify that bomb with a questionable offensive pass-interference penalty six seconds before halftime.

Garoppolo threw away the 49ers’ second possession. Bashaud Breeland intercepted a desperation pass from Garoppolo, who tried to avoid pocket pressure by Chris Jones and Mike Pennel. The Chiefs converted that turnover into a field goal and 10-3 lead.

Moore, in his first heroic act of the night, made a huge third-down pass breakup to force the Chiefs to settle for that field goal rather than a second straight touchdown drive. Hence, Kansas City led just 10-3 with 9:32 until the Jennifer Lopez and Shakira halftime show.

The Chiefs were just 1-of-6 on third-down plays before halftime, but 2-of-2 fourth-and-1 situations (Damien Williams runs) that led to their first-half points.

The 49ers fell behind 7-3 on a Mahomes’ option keeper from 1 yard out with 31 seconds remaining in the first quarter. Two snaps earlier, the Chiefs pulled their field-goal unit off the field and went for it on fourth-and-1, with Damien Williams converting to the 4. And prior to that, Jimmie Ward made a touchdown-saving tackle of a scrambling Mahomes at the 3, and even though Ward needed medical attention after the fumble-forcing hit, he was back on the field for the next snap.

Gould’s 38-yard field goal on the 49ers’ opening possession had given them a Super Bowl lead for the first time since their 1994 team won 49-26 on this same field 25 years ago against the then-San Diego Chargers.

Samuel provided the 49ers’ first offensive highlight, running 32 yards to the Chiefs’ 40-yard line on the 49ers’ third snap. Interestingly, on the 49ers’ third snap of their last Super Bowl win here 25 years ago, Jerry Rice caught a 44-yard touchdown pass from Steve Young to spark a rout.

Mahomes’ first pass got deflected by Bosa to key a three-and-out opening series by the Chiefs. Last season’s NFL MVP was 12-of-18 for 104 yards in the first half. Earl Mitchell and DeForest Buckner shared the only first-half sack of Mahomes, merely pausing the Chiefs’ first touchdown drive.

After the Chiefs’ three-and-out debut, the 49ers avoided disaster when Richie James Jr. muffed the ensuing punt return, but recovered the fumble at the 49ers’ 18-yard line. He fumbled no returns this season up until that point.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — In the hours before Kobe Bryant died, he spoke on the phone with LeBron James, the newly minted third-leading scorer in NBA history.

Bryant had always been prideful in his career, but now was gracious despite being eclipsed. The two men, as warm as they had ever been in their careers, had what James would call a “great conversation” to catch up and exchange pleasantries after James had passed Bryant’s career scoring mark.

In the last week, James has thought about that conversation every day — not always because he wants to.

“It’s not a great memory,” he said, “because it’s the last one.”

It’s a memory that James will likely have to visit again and again, wherever he goes this season. The rest of the Lakers will spend months revisiting their own memories of Bryant, both nostagic and painful, as well. That’s what this season has now become.

Even as they left the emotional tripwires of Staples Center on Saturday night, Kobe Bryant was everywhere at Golden 1 Center. Images of him and Gianna Bryant were towering over incoming spectators as they walked through the northwest doors of the arena. The Kings played three videos during timeouts paying tribute to Bryant, and staffers — even the arena public address announcer — wore shirts reading “KOBE” in a city where Bryant authored a great deal of postseason suffering for the Kings.

It’s not just Staples Center where Kobe is being mourned. It’s every NBA arena.

The fatal crash that killed Kobe Bryant, Gianna Bryant, John Altobelli, Keri Altobelli, Alyssa Altobelli, Payton Chester, Sarah Chester, Christina Mauser and Ara Zobayan is still fresh. Throughout the organization, players and staffers alike are still mourning. But the team is getting a taste of what a season-long march of Bryant tributes will be like — a near surety for a larger-than-life figure whose death has resonated powerfully throughout the world.

“They prepared us for it, we’re prepared for it,” said Anthony Davis. “And I think teams in the NBA just want to do their part in honoring Kobe. So we can expect that probably for the rest of the year, some type of tribute or something honoring him.”

Human sorrow has no standard timeline. Dealing with death is difficult enough on its own. But the Lakers (37-11) are beginning to understand that they’re not just shouldering their own grief, but the grief of many others.

Sacramento’s outpouring is a bellwether. There’s going to be visiting arenas that play video tributes. There will be opposing players and coaches who want to chat pregame about their favorite Kobe stories. At home and on the road, there will be chants of: “KO-BE, KO-BE.”

On one hand, it’s a sign of just how special and unique Bryant’s legacy is. On the other, it’s an emotional challenge that no other title contender will have to accomodate.

Frank Vogel said on Saturday night that the cumulative effect these tributes had on his team were positive in a 129-113 win.

“The Kings did a great job in just honoring him the right way and our fanbase, they travel and they represent and we feel it,” he said. “We feel the love, we feel the support, we feel the energy when we’re playing on the road. It’s a big reason why we were able to accomplish what you mentioned earlier and it was a terrific night in that regard.”

That approach is a strong one by the Lakers. Players said they drew some strength and energy from the tributes to Bryant in Sacramento, only a day after a return to the court had made them feel heavy-hearted. It showed in their 44-22 start over the Kings, which knocked their hosts out early.

The challenge will be to find a similar type of motivation in other environments, even when the tributes start to feel burdensome. The team has already tried to find nuance in how they’re dedicating their season to Bryant, whose initials will be worn on their right shoulder for the rest of the year: It’s not a result (or a championship) as much as an approach.

“It puts everything in perspective, but I knew that before and we knew that before, what he meant to the organization as a whole,” James said. “So the daily reminder that we continue to get is definitely great, because it should be acknowledged because of what he meant to this franchise for 20 years. It’s our obligation to go out and just play the game at a very (intellectual) manner, have that winning mentality, because that’s what he would want.”

There can be an impatience with grief, a desire to get to the point where the rhythms of normal life return and that absence hurts just a little less.

But getting back to “normal” is not really an option for the Lakers. Normal has changed. By embedding themselves in the process of healing rather than the finish line, the Lakers hope they’ll find strength and progress with each day.

“It’s never going to feel normal,” Vogel said. “It’s never going to feel the same. But we got our first win since this happened. There’s going to be a lot of important steps for us along the way, and this was certainly one of them.”

Santa Ana voters will decide whether or not to recall Councilwoman Cecilia Iglesias, as city officials confirmed that a recall effort backed by the police union has collected enough valid signatures to put the question on a future ballot.

Though nearly a third of the signatures reviewed by the Orange County Registrar of Voters were found to be invalid, officials said Monday, Feb. 3, that 10,870 signatures — 10% of the city’s registered voters — were deemed valid, meaning the recall effort can move forward.

The next step comes Feb. 18, when the City Council is scheduled to pick an election date.  The council has up to 125 days from the day of the meeting to call for a special election, which will cost taxpayers approximately $650,000.

Iglesias, elected to the council in 2018, described the recall move as a power play on the part of Gerry Serrano, head of the Santa Ana Police Officers Association, sparked by her opposition to a police pay raise.

“I feel it’s very unfortunate that the police union president has been able through lies and deceit to gather these signatures,” Iglesias said Monday.

Last year, Iglesias and another councilman, Juan Villegas, voted against giving police $25.6 million in pay raises. A few months later, recall petitions were circulated targeting both Iglesias and Villegas. But in the fall, when the effort to recall Villegas began to flag, the focus shifted to Iglesias.

The union spent $301,000 on the Iglesias recall through the end of last year, according to a Jan. 28 campaign statement filed with the city. Part of the money, $81,000, was transferred from the committee aimed at Villegas.

Serrano has argued that reports linking the union’s funding of the recall to Iglesias’ stand against police pay raises are “very misleading.”

“This is not about a contract vote over a year ago, rather (that) she is unfit and her behavior illicit,” Serrano wrote in a letter sent to the media last month.

In that letter, Serrano also described Iglesias as “ruthless and unethical.” The police union supports her recall, he wrote, because she has made “slanderous comments” about the union and interfered with the union’s right to represent its members.

In his letter, Serrano repeated some of the complaints that paid signature gatherers reportedly told to Santa Ana’s predominantly Latino residents: He painted Iglesias as a supporter of President Donald Trump’s immigration policies, saying she is OK with children being separated from their families at the border.

Iglesias, a Republican who works for the conservative non-profit California Policy Center, said she supports immigration reform but also wants to see border security. She is an immigrant from El Salvador and said she does not support separating children from their families at the border. She said allegations that she feels otherwise are lies.

A former Santa Ana school board trustree, Iglesias also has taken heat from the local teachers union because of her support for charter schools.

Iglesias has been vocal about her views of the police union president and regularly blasts him on social media.

YUMA, Ariz. — Authorities in Yuma say a California man was shot and killed after he charged at a deputy with a knife.

The Yuma County Sheriff’s Office says the shooting happened Sunday night after deputies were called to a report of a domestic violence situation.

Upon their arrival, the deputies encountered 63-year-old Chris Cadotte of Orange County. Cadotte was holding a knife. Deputies say he disregarded commands to drop it.

A deputy shot Cadotte as he approached still holding the knife.

Deputies administered first aid until paramedics arrived. But Cadotte died a short time later at a hospital.

The name of the deputy who shot Cadotte has not been identified. The investigation into the shooting is ongoing.

LOS ANGELES — As much time as fans spend pondering trade possibilities this time of year, Doc Rivers knows it’s heavy on players’ minds as well.

“Players think more than a lot about stuff,” Rivers said before his Clippers faced the San Antonio Spurs on Monday – with the NBA’s trade deadline looming at noon PT on Thursday. “So, from a coaching standpoint, sometimes it’s nice to just go talk to them, let them know how you feel about them and what you need.

“I just think in life, you should be transparent,” Rivers added. “You know, you really should be. You should tell your guys what you think – what you think about them, and ways they can help themselves and the team. The more you do that, the more you communicate, the more you touch them, the better they have (it).”

This week last season, the Clippers were especially busy. In a matter of days, they traded away Tobias Harris, Mike Scott, Boban Marjanovic, Avery Bradley and Mike Muscala (whom they’d acquired for Harris, Scott and Marjanovic). They brought aboard Landry Shamet, Ivica Zubac and JaMychal Green, as well as Garrett Temple and Wilson Chandler. They waived Marcin Gortat.

On Monday, Rivers wasn’t tipping his hand in regard to any potential maneuvering at this deadline, insisting the Clippers, as currently constructed, inspire his confidence.

“I mean, listen. We love our team right now. We really do,” Rivers said. “And so that’s what I’m looking at right now, is how to get the team we have on the floor right now better – or on the floor.”

That has been the issue for this season’s Clippers, who have players who have combined to miss 90 games, which has contributed to 23 starting lineups through 49 games.

“A lot of our guys have not been able to play,” Rivers said. “(Paul George has) missed a lot (21 games). There are times where I do freak out about it, but then there’s times we’re gonna be fine, and at the end of the day, I think we’ll be fine.

“We run enough stuff in skeleton and in our shootarounds, that we think we’ll be OK. And we still have a lot of games left, and so as long as we can, you know, get guys on the floor these last 30 games or so, I think we’ll be fine.”

SUPER BOWL REACTION

Rivers said he appreciated the NFL’s tributes to Kobe Bryant at Sunday’s Super Bowl.

“It was really cool,” Rivers said. “The Kobe tributes from the players was really cool and then just the moment of silence and everything before the game was great.”

Bryant was among nine killed in a helicopter crash Jan. 26 in Calabasas, an event that sent shockwaves through the NBA and beyond in the days since.

And what about the Clippers’ resident Kansas City, Mo., native?

Yes, Shamet enjoyed the game, too.

The second-year shooting guard with an appreciation for good barbecue posted a celebratory story on Instagram and, then “he finally told us he was from Missouri,” Rivers said, pausing to let the joke settle. (President Donald Trump tweeted his congratulations on Sunday night to “the Great State of Kansas.”)

Added Rivers: “I did quiz several players on that today. They all passed.”

The OCVarsity Fab 15 selects the top Class of 2020 high school football players in the West.

FAB 15 FIRST TEAM

1. Bryce Young, Mater Dei

QB, 6-0, 190

The consensus top recruit in the West, Young is a smooth operator in the pocket but becomes special throwing on the run or scrambling for extra yards. The Register’s Offensive Player of the Year ranks as the top quarterback in the class of 2020, according to 247Sports, Rivals and ESPN. He led Mater Dei to CIF-SS and state titles in 2018, his first season at the school.

Status: Alabama (enrolled)

2. DJ Uiagalelei, St. John Bosco

QB, 6-5, 245

The Polynesian High School Football Player of the Year checks all the boxes as a pro-style quarterback prospect. He’s tall, strong in the pocket and owns a rocket arm. He’s also a big-time winner after leading the Braves to a national title in 2019.

Status: Clemson (enrolled)

3. Justin Flowe, Upland

LB, 6-2 225

An imposing force on the field, Flowe combines a physical style with excellent athleticism and speed. It he gets near the football, opponents will feel it.

Status: Oregon (signed)

4. Kelee Ringo, Saguaro, Ariz.

CB, 6-2, 205

Ringo ranks as 247Sports’ No. 1 cornerback in the nation, and that’s high praise. O.C. fans know the talents of Elias Ricks (IMG Academy/Mater Dei) and Clark Phillips III (La Habra). Rivals ranked Ricks the No. 1 corner but Ringo appears just as dynamic and has a bit more size. Ringo also played running back in 2019.

Status: Georgia (signed)

5. Bijan Robinson, Salpointe Catholic, Ariz.

RB, 6-0, 200

The No. 1-ranked running back in the nation by 247Sports combines size and breakaway speed with exceptional athleticism. He’s capable of slick spin moves and leaping one-handed catches. There’s also plenty of substance to Robinson, who rushed for 2,235 yards and 38 TDs this past season.

Status: Texas (signed)

6. Noah Sewell, Orem, Utah

LB, 6-2, 250

It’s scary to think about Sewell pairing with Justin Flowe at linebacker at Oregon the next few years. Sewell is another punishing tackler who moves well for his size. He averaged almost 9 yards per carry last season as a running back. But speaking of size, Rivals says he played at 270 pounds at the All-American Bowl. He’s going to have to watch his weight to stick at linebacker.

Status: Oregon (enrolled)

7. CJ Stroud, Rancho Cucamonga

QB, 6-2, 194

The Elite 11 winner is an athletic quarterback who throws well on the run and also steps up in the pocket. He passed for 3,878 yards and 47 TDs this season. He is arguably the third-best quarterback prospect in the nation.

Status: Ohio State (enrolled)

8. Gary Bryant Jr., Centennial Corona

WR, 5-11, 165

The West’s No. 1 wide receiver is smaller than his national rivals, but he makes up for it with quickness, solid hands and competitiveness. He hauled in 58 passes for 1,134 yards and 10 TDs as a senior. In his two games this season, against Mater Dei and St. John Bosco, he combined for 15 catches for 248 yards and one touchdown. He signed with the Trojans as an athlete.

Status: USC (enrolled)

9. Clark Phillips III, La Habra

CB, 5-10 180

A playmaker. The one-time Ohio State commit is the shortest of the elite cornerbacks in the nation, but he is just as athletic and competitive. The Register’s Defensive Player of the Year was a true shutdown corner who excelled against the best competition. He is the No. 5 cornerback in the nation, according to 247Sports.

Status: Utah (enrolled)

10. Darnell Washington, Desert Pines, Nev.

ATH/TE, 6-7, 260

Washington ranks as 247Sports’ No. 2 athlete in the nation, and look for him to play tight end for Georgia. The Bulldogs recruited the West well.

Status: Georgia (signed)

11. Sav’ell Smalls, Kennedy Catholic, Wash.

DE, 6-4, 235

Smalls is another athletic force at defensive end. Washington’s No. 1 prospect also played wide receiver for Kennedy Catholic.

Status: Washington (signed)

12. Kendall Milton, Buchanan

RB, 6-1, 220

Milton is a speedster who loves to turn the corner and sprint past defenders. He is certainly in the class of Bijan Robinson of Salpointe Catholic, Ariz.

Status: Georgia (enrolled)

13. Gee Scott Jr., Eastside Catholic, Wash.

WR, 6-2, 205

Don’t sleep on Scott. Yes, Julian Fleming and Jaxon Smith-Njigba might be higher-ranked receivers in Ohio State’s class, but Scott combines size and strength with a strong motivation to succeed. He hauled in 76 receptions this season for 1,453 yards and 15 TDs.

Status: Ohio State (enrolled)

14. Andrew Gentry, Columbine, Colo.

OL, 6-8, 310

The No. 1 player in Colorado held many offers, including ones from Alabama, LSU and Ohio State, but he picked Virginia. He’s a physical blocker, especially on running plays.

Status: Virginia (signed)

15. Ethan Garbers, Corona del Mar

QB, 6-3, 200

Garbers is underrated by many scouts but not here. He didn’t face the elite competition of say the Trinity League, but his impressive body of work as a senior backed up his Elite 11 status. He completed 70 percent of his passes for 5,035 yards and 71 TDs this season, both Orange County records. He also showed improved athleticism and seems driven to compete with his older brother Chase, who is excelling at Cal.

Status: Washington (enrolled)

OTTAWA, Ontario — Rickard Rakell scored the shootout winner and the Ducks beat the Ottawa Senators 3-2 on Tuesday night.

Nick Ritchie and Ondrej Kase scored in regulation for the Ducks, who have won four of their last five.

John Gibson made 30 saves as the Ducks improved to 2-0-0 on a five-game road swing that started with a 3-1 win against the Kings at Staples Center.

Ducks coach Dallas Eakins thought his team played slow and turned the puck over far too many times and will need to control the pace better if they hope to continue to find success on this road trip.

“We were very lucky,” Eakins said. “I’m not sure we got what we deserved. That was not a very good game by us, but John Gibson held us in and we got some timely scoring.”

Drake Batherson and Artem Anisimov scored for Ottawa. Marcus Hogberg stopped 26 shots.

With 10 home games this month, the Senators hope to improve their record at Canadian Tire Centre, where they’re 1-4-5 in their last 10.

The Ducks opened the scoring midway through the first period when Ritchie tipped Hampus Lindholm’s shot to beat Hogberg.

The Senators tied it early in the period as Batherson scored a power-play goal for his second of the season.

Kase took a bounce off the back boards and tucked in a backhand to make it 2-1 at the 13:35 mark of the second period.

Anisimov’s 10th of the season tied the score at 2-all with a power-play goal early in the third, tipping Colin White’s shot past Gibson.

Ottawa appeared to tie the game late in the period, but the Ducks challenged and, upon review, was deemed offside.

“It’s pond hockey a little bit when it’s three-on-three and could go either way,” Ottawa’s Jean-Gabriel Pageau said of the overtime period. “We had our chances, they had their chances and it goes into a shootout and that’s not hockey, but that’s what it is right now so not much we can do.”

NOTES

Anthony Duclair took the ceremonial faceoff for the Senators as Willie O’Ree dropped the puck as part of the NHL’s Black History Month celebrations. … Cody Goloubef and Mikkel Boedker were healthy scratches for the Senators.

UP NEXT

The Ducks play at the Montreal Canadiens on Thursday.

LOS ANGELES — For a 12-year span, the Western Conference ran through two roads.

Through Los Angeles. Or through San Antonio. In that span from the 1998-99 season to the 2009-10 campaign, the Lakers and Spurs combined to win nine NBA championships. Much of the Spurs’ success was credited to the strategic brilliance of Coach Gregg Popovich. And much the Lakers’ success was credited to the brilliant play of future Hall of Famer Kobe Bryant.

Speaking Tuesday night before another tilt at Staples Center against the Lakers, Popovich took a moment to reflect on the rivalry that was with Bryant, who died on Jan. 26. One of the hardest parts of learning that Bryant had died, Popovich said, was his aura of invincibility. Even a coach who bested him several times in playoff series thought of him in those terms.

“He was like a superhero who was actually human,” he said. “We kind of thought of him as one of those kind of people.”

The Spurs knew Bryant well: They met in the postseason seven times during Bryant’s 20-year tenure as a Laker. Behind a competitive rivalry, Popovich said, was a healthy respect.

“A lot of competitiveness, playing against him, coaching against him, being with him at All-Star games,” he said. “I think everybody has their situations where, even if they didn’t know him at all, they feel they did, especially the people in Los Angeles. So we all have those thoughts just pass by when you lose somebody, and they just keep coming.”

Many of the Spurs, who have completely changed over their roster since the days of facing Bryant’s Lakers, were mourning in their own way. Notably, DeMar DeRozan, a Compton native, entered Staples Center both Monday against the Clippers and Tuesday against the Lakers wearing Bryant’s jersey on his back. Tim Duncan, a Spurs legend who now serves on Popovich’s bench, was also present at the game and hugged the Lakers’ LeBron James before tip-off.

Popovich’s wife, Erin Popovich, died in April 2018 after a long battle with a respiratory illness. Popovich seemed to acknowledge this brush with mortality and compare it to what the Bryant family has gone through in the last week-and-a-half.

“When somebody’s sick for a long time and you expect it, you deal with that,” he said. “But when somebody is taken the way that he and his daughter and the other people were taken, that makes it a tragedy, more painful in some ways.”

LEBRON JAMES NAMED PLAYER OF THE MONTH

After the Lakers went 10-4 in January, LeBron James was named the Western Conference Player of the Month – the first time a Laker has earned the honor since Kobe Bryant did it in 2013.

James extended his own record of 39 NBA Player of the Month awards, which he had not won since March/April of 2018. Bryant won the award last for the Lakers in February of 2013.
