Finally, a game for Nik Stauskas that falls into the “actually good” category. I was beginning to wonder if it would ever happen. He’d had a bunch of “okay” games, which gave me hope, but even playing for the rotten 76ers didn’t elevate his play enough for him to ever score 20.
Until now. Anticlimactic, isn’t it? I thought the Philly announcers would at least sound somewhat excited.
Besides the new career high for Stauskas, this video is notable in another way; it utilizes that advanced storytelling technique of “foreshadowing” starting at 1:12. DownToBuck is not content to tell stories only in the descriptions. He wants to tell stories in the highlights as well!
