Earlier in the season I brought up the idea that Terrence Ross, with his 14 PPG average, might have an outside shot at winning the sixth man of the year award. Now that he just had a 26-point game to complement his 30-point game a week ago, I was ready to revisit that idea. I’m…

Ivan Rabb 19 Points Full Highlights (2/5/2019)
Ivan Rabb has been playing so well in the past few games that it truly calls into question the intelligence of Grizzlies head coach J.B. Bickerstaff AKA Joe Blob Dickerstaff.
