It’s shameful for me to admit, as a supporter of all scrubs in the NBA, but this is the part of the season where I start losing track of which ten-day players are on which teams and which two-way players have been called up. A lot of names come and go without so much as…

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope 23 Points Full Highlights (4/2/2019)
I have, in all my years of making Kentavious Caldwell-Pope highlight videos, never actually gotten hyped for him. Even on the few occasions where he scored thirty-plus points, I don’t remember ever feeling even a twinge of hype anywhere in my body. There’s nothing about him that excites me. Since the Lakers aren’t going to…
Read MoreJerami Grant 22 Points Full Highlights (4/2/2019)
If Jerami Grant had been this good a scorer for the Thunder, like, two years ago, would they have even made the Carmelo Anthony trade? I get that, at the time, it seemed like the Thunder were acquiring a “star”, but they didn’t even get much more production out of Carmelo that season (16 PPG)…
Read MoreAlex Caruso 15 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (4/2/2019)
Russell Westbrook may have had a 20-20-20 game while matched up against Alex Caruso, but Caruso had something even better: a performance unsullied by blatant statpadding. He “only” had 15 points and 7 assists (and 2 rebounds), which at first glance seems way worse that Westbrook’s statline, but all of his stats came within the…
Read MoreDanuel House 19 Points/2 Dunks Full Highlights (4/2/2019)
As much as I would love to make a Danuel House dunkilation at the end of the regular season, he’s going to have to step up his dunking game significantly in the Rockets’ final four games if he wants that to happen. As of this writing, he has twelve dunks on the season. I’m fairly…
Read MoreBryn Forbes 19 Points Full Highlights (4/2/2019)
I remember like it was yesterday when Bryn “Forbearance” Forbes, in his rookie season, randomly dropped 27 points in an April game. For a guy who was only getting pity minutes from Popovich at that point, 27 was unbelievable. Literally unable to be believed. Since my life is, generally, a dismal series of events which…
Read MoreAlex Len 21 Points Full Highlights (4/2/2019)
I still, against my better judgment, am considering making a trip to the Ukraine to visit the places of Alex Len’s youth. However, given the perilous political/military situation in that country, I’ve postponed the trip at least until the offseason. I don’t want to get kidnapped by armed Ukrainian insurgents or by armed Russian conquerors…
Read MoreDerrick White 23 Points Full Highlights (4/2/2019)
Derrick “Am I Kawaii Uguu~” White scored eleven points in the final six minutes of this game to save the Spurs from an embarrassing loss to the Hawks. The terms “hero” and its adjectival form “heroic” get thrown around too much these days, but I can say without shame that Derrick White as a heroic…
Read MoreKent Bazemore 26 Points Full Highlights (4/2/2019)
Kent Bazemore needs to remember that the Hawks have a seriously heavy-duty tank rolling right now, and the goal is to roll right into the land of Zion. Zion Williamson, that is. Being part of the tank squad carries with it certain responsibilities, the most crucial of which is being mindful to not score enough…
