Dejounte Murray 18 Points/6 Assists/1 Return Full Highlights (10/23/2019)

It’s amazing how quickly players can drop off your radar while they’re not playing. It’s kind of like when players retire. Tell me, have you thought about Dirk Nowitzki at all since he retired? He was an all time great, and now he’s just gone, and with so many NBA players still playing in the…

Bryn Forbes 20 Points Full Highlights (10/23/2019)

This is the year, THIS IS THE YEAR (note the capital letters for emphasis) that Bryn Forbes is basically Stephen Curry 0.6 and proves it by slowly working his way up the Spurs’ pecking order until he’s the second option ahead of DeMar DeRozan (who is not any version of Stephen Curry but is actually…

Kelly Oubre 21 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (10/23/2019)

I would urge Suns fans not to get overexcited about this decisive win over the Kings. I don’t remember the reactions, but I do remember how they creamed the Mavericks on opening night last year, then proceeded to suck as hard (or harder) as any team in recent memory. It’s easy to become hyped due…

Myles Turner 25 Points/3 Blocks Full Highlights (10/23/2019)

Myles Turner is officially on notice. If he keeps putting up games like this one, he’s going to find himself banished from my channel. FOREVER. Well, not forever, but for a long time, until he enters the twilight of his career. I’ve done it before, and I’ll do it again. You think you’ll ever see…

Moritz Wagner 13 Points Wizards Debut Full Highlights (10/23/2019)

Attention Lakers fans: you are NOT allowed to watch this video. Go watch some vids of Anthony Davis or LeBron James or Alex Caruso or whatever “superstar” your team signed recently. As much as I don’t want to, I’m begrudgingly allowing you to watch vids of players that are on your team. But this vid…

Dwayne Bacon 22 Points Full Highlights (10/23/2019)

Dwayne Bacon ended last season on something of a high note, scoring in double-figures semi-consistently including a trifecta of 20-burgers. I will not debase myself so far as to use the adjective “sizzling” to describe his performances, but he was definitely giving Hornets fans some hope for the future. Which is something they need really…

Marcus Morris 26 Points Knicks Debut Full Highlights (10/23/2019)

There are a lot of things I’m excited about for the 2019-20 NBA season (which just started by the way if you haven’t been paying attention). A LOT of things. This is gonna be, like, the best season ever, especially when it ends with the Bucks dousing themselves in champagne on account of the championship…

Ja Morant 14 Points/4 Assists Grizzlies Debut Full Highlights (10/23/2019)

Ja Morant got off to a very hot start in his debut, making three shots in the first four minutes and causing both the Grizzlies commentators and all Grizzlies fans watching from afar to salivate copiously. If he had kept up that rate of scoring and his coach decided to ride the hot hand by…

Rui Hachimura 14 Points Wizards Debut Full Highlights (10/23/2019)

DownToBuck has only had limited experience with Japanese fans on his channel. Basically, my singular experience with them comes from the time I uploaded highlights of Yuta Watanabe scoring ten points. I know that interest in the NBA (and the sport as a whole) is growing in Japan, but I haven’t seen much of that…

Justise Winslow 27 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (10/23/2019)

By putting up a statline of 27/7/7, Justise Winslow officially got a “LeBron”, so named because a typical statline for prime LeBron would be 27 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists. The significance of this statline happening at the dawn of a new Heat season, five years after LeBron abandoned South Beach for North Beach…
