If you aren't too spent after all the holiday debauchery or need to brighten up your mood because you are battling Seasonal Affective Disorder, the Globetrotters have a treat for you. Not only are they bringing their outlandish tricks and hilarious goofs to U.S. Bank Arena (100 Broadway St., Downtown), they're also introducing a brand new way to score major points on the basketball court. Not a slam dunk, an alley-oop or a hook shot, but the ability to score four points with one shot. That's right, not just two or three points, but four. A spot 12 feet beyond the normal three-point range will be placed on the court and enable the teams playing to run up the score even quicker than before. Come watch as the Harlem Globetrotters do battle with their perennial foe, the Generals, and see how high the final score can go. There will be two games, one at 2 p.m. and the other at 7 p.m. Thursday.
