Jeff Teague is averaging 8.1 assists per game. If he hadn’t missed so many games this season, thus disqualifying him from the leaderboards, that would be good for third in the league. And heck, I think 39 games is enough, so let’s just say it: Teague is fourth in the league in assists per game…

Darren Collison 22 Points Full Highlights (3/5/2019)
You know the league is full to the brim with premiere point guard talent when an extremely solid guy on one of the best teams in the league gets literally no attention whatsoever. And in case you were wondering, videos on DownToBuck’s Scrubarchive do not count as “attention”. They never did. I’m talking about real…
Read MoreRobin Lopez 20 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (3/5/2019)
Basketball-Reference currently has the Bulls at a 0% chance to make the playoffs this season. But Basketball-Reference doesn’t have eyes. Basketball-Reference can’t see what humans see, and what this particular human is seeing is an improved standard of play from this team. If they don’t resort to outright tanking, it’s possible that they’ll win quite…
Read MoreMaurice Harkless 20 Points/5 Dunks Full Highlights (3/5/2019)
Moe Harkless was uncharacteristically aggressive in this game. He was aggressive to the point where the aggression could not have solely come from within him; we know with certainty that he doesn’t have that extra switch inside him that would allow him to be so scoring-focused for an entire game. I’m thinking either Terry Stotts,…
Read MoreJonathan Isaac 16 Points Full Highlights (3/5/2019)
This is getting out of control. With his latest sixteen-point showing, Jonathan Isaac has now scored exactly sixteen points SEVEN TIMES this season. He’s putting me in the tough position of either making constant mediocre highlight videos (wasting my time) or ignoring his improved scoring to the ire of Magic fans. Meanwhile, he has only…
Read MoreDelon Wright Career High 25 Points Full Highlights (3/5/2019)
Ex-Grizzly Marc Gasol tonight: 8 points. Ex-Raptors tonight: Delon Wright, 25 points, Jonas Valanciunas, 17 points, C.J. Miles, 12 points. Those numbers themselves make the Raptors-Grizzlies trade at the deadline look bad for the Raptors, but lets check every player’s average with their new team before jumping to rash conclusions. Gasol: 11 PPG. Wright: 9…
Read MoreEvan Fournier 25 Points Full Highlights (3/5/2019)
I wonder if Evan Fournier is okay with the fact that his prime years are being squandered on the Magic. As a decent (and still relatively young) shooting guard, I’m sure he thinks about going to another situation where he would see more team success, but I’m sure he also realizes that your talents as…
Read MoreBojan Bogdanovic 27 Points Full Highlights (3/5/2019)
It’s a contract year for Bojan “Bojangles” Bogdanovic. I don’t want to imply unfairly that his vastly increased production this season has anything to do with angling for a gigantic contract from either the Pacers or another team, but, actually, yeah, that is what I want to imply. Bogdanovic knows full well that averaging 18…
