"&lt;p&gt;               &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; LOS ANGELES (AP) -- A son of Los Angeles Dodgers manager Don Mattingly is going to play college basketball for Bob Knight's son.    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Preston Mattingly has committed to Lamar University in Beaumont, Texas, where Pat Knight coaches the team.    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Mattingly, who turns 26 next month, spent six seasons in baseball's minor leagues, but never advanced past Class A.    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; He played basketball at Evansville (Ind.) Central High, where he averaged 21 points as a senior. His former coach there contacted Knight, who offered Mattingly a scholarship.    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; \"I was really glad he's going to go back and get an education,'' the elder Mattingly said Tuesday. \"Trying to get by today, you need an education. He's going to get a chance to play while he's doing it.''    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Copyright 2014 Associated Press. All rights reserved.
