The U.S. Supreme Court legalized gay marriage today. We look at the long legal and social evolution that led up to the ruling. Then, at NBA draft picks last night the Lakers surprised some by scooping up D’Angelo Russell of Ohio State. What do fans think? In our Friday film segment, Ted 2, Big Game and more.
