I get the feeling that I’m going to be making a lot of Coby White highlights this season. Since I will, over the course of the next few months, have to write a lot of material on White, I’ll save some of the low-hanging fruit for later. In the highlights slog that is February and…

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Career High 26 Points Thunder Debut Full Highlights (10/23/2019)
It’s always kind of sad when a young player is touted by an organization as a big part of the future, their face is plastered everywhere, the commentators are instructed to hype them up as much as possible, and then the second a chance to make a superteam arrives, they’re kicked to the curb like…
Read MoreDomantas Sabonis 27 Points Full Highlights (10/23/2019)
It seems like just a few days ago that Domantas Sabonis was on the trade block, with the Pacers looking to trade him in lieu of giving him a big contract. That’s probably because it WAS just a few days ago, here I was getting all ready to see Sabonis in a new uniform, that’s…
Read MoreTyler Herro 14 Points Heat Debut Full Highlights (10/23/2019)
I’m so hyped for Tyler Herro that his NBA debut could’ve been “2 Points/1 Assist/1 Fart” and I still would’ve made a video (at least a minute long, as promised) for it. Sometimes I try to maintain an air of impartiality, but now is not one of those times. I am hyped, straight up, for…
Read MoreDevonte’ Graham Career High 23 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (10/23/2019)
I was hoping that this performance would end up being the rare and desired “Double Career High” where a player sets a career high in both points and assists in the same game. Note that rebounds do not count for the “Double Career High” achievement. Rebounds are worthless. Anyone can acquire any amount of rebounds…
Read MoreLuke Kennard Career High 30 Points Full Highlights (10/23/2019)
While the Pistons were getting BTFO the frick out by the Bucks in the first round of the playoffs last season, I came up with some ideas for how the Pistons could do to me more competitive. I intended for those ideas to be used in that particular playoff series, but there’s no reason for…
Read MoreR.J. Barrett 21 Points Knicks Debut Full Highlights (10/23/2019)
We should have seen this coming. We should have known that Zion Williamson’s knees would disintegrate before his first regular-season game. We should have begun preparations to have R.J. Barrett be the NBA’s most hyped rookie several weeks, if not months, ago. Now we’re playing catch-up. Narratives need to be rewritten. Merchandise needs to be…
Read MoreKendrick Nunn 24 Points Heat Debut Full Highlights (10/23/2019)
This one should come as no surprise. In fact, the surprising part about this 24-point NBA debut by Kendrick Nunn is that he didn’t score MORE points. If you were in a state of willful obliviosity during the preseason (I don’t blame you; there’s a reason I don’t do preseason highlights), let me give you…
Read MoreP.J. Washington 27 Points/7 Threes Hornets Debut Full Highlights (10/23/2019)
Listen to how happy the Hornets commentators are. Just listen to them. Hearing that broadcast, one would have no way of knowing that the Hornets are the most booty-licious (the bad kind of booty, not the good kind of booty) team in the league, with no hope, no future, just a bunch of crying Jordan…
