Naz Reid is under contract for three years after this, getting paid around 6 million in total. That seems like an awful long kind of contract for a player like Reid, but only this year is guaranteed, which basically means that if he doesn’t pan out like they want, they can cut him at any…

Markelle Fultz 15 Points/3 Threes Full Highlights (2/8/2019)
Markelle Fultz’s career high in made three-pointers has now OFFICIALLY been raised from two to three. That seems like an absurdly low number for a point guard in the modern era of the NBA. In fact, it occurred to me that a career high of three 3PM might be the lowest of any active point…
Read MoreMiles Bridges 20 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2019)
With all these bad teams shuffling players around like so many deck chairs on the Titanic, the Hornets… did nothing. Well, almost nothing. They bought out Marvin Williams so he could sign with the Bucks (note: I would literally rather have Dragan Bender [who was waived to make space] than Williams, I don’t care how…
Read MoreJuan Hernangomez 14 Points Timberwolves Debut Full Highlights (2/8/2019)
Juan Hernangomez is free! Paul Millsap can’t ruin his career anymore! My new rule for video descriptions is that I have to start off with three sentences that end with exclamation points! For real though, things really weren’t working out for Juancho in Denver. Some of that was on him (for losing confidence too quickly),…
Read MoreJoe Harris 19 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (2/8/2019)
This is Joe Harris’ SEVENTH nineteen-point game of the season. Seventh! I’m starting to think that he’s doing this on purpose to torment me, because he knows that I consider a twenty-point game to be way more exciting than a nineteen-point game. There’s no other reason why he would fail to break through the twenty-point…
Read MoreMikal Bridges 19 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2019)
Let us now take the time to remember how the Philadelphia 76ers drafted Mikal Bridges so that he could play for the team his mom works for, and everyone felt all good about it, it was a “feel-good” story, and the people at the draft interviewed him like he was gonna be a 76er, and…
Read MoreDavid Nwaba 17 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2019)
I admit, I didn’t realize David Nwaba was injured, much less missing a whole tons of games because of it. I never noticed, in the last month of looking at Cavaliers boxscores, that Nwaba’s name wasn’t even there. This ignorance of his status reveals my true opinion of him: he’s not that fun or exciting….
Read MoreKelly Oubre 25 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2019)
“I don’t even want to know what’s going on here,” Tyler Johnson commented as he walked towards his locker, which was right next to Kelly Oubre’s. “No. You definitely don’t,” Kelly replied as he pulled on the ninja outfit that he had ordered online. Once this garment was on his body, he took out several…
Read MoreTrey Burke 18 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2019)
I am considering this game to be Trey “Treyburkulosis” Burke’s debut with the Mavericks. He only played four minutes in his “real” debut, which isn’t really enough time to start even thinking about making a shot. There’s no point playing a player you just acquired so few minutes, so I’m choosing to believe that it…
Read MoreBrook Lopez 20 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2019)
This is the Brook Lopez I want to see. The kind that shoots a bunch of threes but ALSO goes into the post to do some things. His three-point shooting is great for the memes or whatever, but the fact remains that he’s a huge dude who is hard to stop in the paint. In…
