Robert “Processed Cheese” Covington is secretly the glue guy that keeps the Timberwolves functioning. At least, he seems like he would be that guy. I don’t know enough about the intricacies of the Timberwolves roster to say that for sure. But he’s the guy who provides defense (DownToBuck doesn’t care about defense), steady shooting (not…

Dwight Powell 24 Points Full Highlights (12/4/2019)
Dwight Powell had it rolling, scoring 24 points in the first three quarters of this game. He conclusively showed that KAT stands for “Kan’t Actually Tryondefense”. Not only did Powell terrorize the Timberpuppies with his scoring prowess, but his statline was overflowing with other stats that I was too lazy to show in this video:…
Read MoreFrank Kaminsky 23 Points Full Highlights (12/4/2019)
This video is basically the exact opposite of the Damian Jones career-high 20 points vid I just uploaded. Whereas Jones can basically do nothing but jump and dunk, Kaminsky can do everything EXCEPT jump and dunk. Sure, he dunks it sometimes (he even did it in this game), but things have to align pretty nicely…
Read MoreDamian Jones Career High 20 Points Full Highlights (12/4/2019)
If you’ve ever pondered the question “what is the most points a player with no basketball skills could so score in an NBA game?”, well, tonight you are slightly closer to an answer. The lower bound for that number is 20, because we just saw “NBA player” Damian Jones score that many tonight. Now that…
Read MoreGarrett Temple 27 Points Full Highlights (12/4/2019)
Nets fans probably aren’t as excited as I am that their team, which has on its roster both Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant, is being led in scoring by Garrett “Most Likely To Be An NBA Coach After Retirement” Temple. But they really should be. Irving and Durant, they aren’t Nets basketball. Superstars scoring points…
Read MoreRichaun Holmes Career High 28 Points Full Highlights (12/4/2019)
I have said in the past that Richaun Holmes was giving me vibes of Giannis Antetokounmpo. Reminder: my vibe-receptors are very finely tuned and never give me erroneous readings when it comes to NBA players. Those Giannis-vibes that I received from Holmes while he was in Philly were some of the most legit vibes I…
Read MoreDevonte’ Graham 33 Points/10 Threes/9 Assists Full Highlights (12/4/2019)
Quiz time! Sharpen your pencils kiddos, this one’s a doozy. Question 1: Which of these players is currently second in the league in three-pointers made as well as third in total assists? A. James Harden B. Trae Young C. Devonte’ Graham D. Malcolm Brogdon E. All of the Above Question 2: How much should the…
Read MoreJonas Valanciunas 32 Points Full Highlights (12/4/2019)
Jonas Valanciunas has been kind of dominating lately. He was apparently so sick (I know that feeling, gotta watch out with that seafood from the iffy-looking Chinese place) the last two games that he couldn’t play, and was still feeling a little woozy in this one. It didn’t matter. His recent statlines: 30 points, 16…
Read MoreCam Reddish 25 Points Full Highlights (12/4/2019)
True DTB veterans will remember the early days of my channel, where I had way less of a filter for my criticism of players. You think I’m bad now? These days I temper all my honest criticism with soft words like “but” and “maybe” and “I don’t know” so that fanbases don’t turn on me…
Read MoreBam Adebayo 18 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2019)
Every game that passes with Bam Adebayo playing at a pseudo-All-Star level renders my scathing nickname of “Bum Adebayo” less scathing and more petty. Not that I think he’ll be an All-Star, because he probably won’t be, but his averages of 14/10/4/1/1 on extremely efficient shooting certainly raise my eyebrows, being that I am a…
