Larry Nance Jr. 16 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2020)

This video was made speculatively, with yours truly speculating that Larry Nance Jr. would have such an outrageous display have acrobatic dunkage that this video’s very existence would raise sales of BoingVert by 200%. Do they even sell BoingVert anymore? It doesn’t matter, because this video, while it does contain some dunkage, does not contain…

Tim Hardaway Jr. 29 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2020)

Tim Hardaway Jr. has it pretty good right now, what with being the second option behind Luka Doncic and all. He shouldn’t take this opportunity for granted because, before he knows it, Kristaps Porzingis’ unexplained knee soreness will magically resolve itself and THJ will have to go back to being the third option. Or Porzingis…

Vince Carter 14 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2020)

Lloyd Pierce has gotta just be giving Vince Carter minutes for the laughs, right? There’s no way that VC, however large his legacy is, can actually be contributing to winning basketball right now. Last season, he was a pretty good shooter; this season, he’s not a pretty good shooter, as his 34% from the field…

OG Anunoby 18 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2020)

I am currently thinking about all the primo restaurant options OG Anunoby has as a resident of Toronto, and it’s getting me all worked up. I shouldn’t even be this hungry, I had a solid lunch, a solid dinner, a bunch of snacks, but I can’t stop looking at all these menus of good-looking Toronto…

Bam Adebayo 21 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (1/17/2020)

If Bam Adebayo wants more triple-doubles (and you know he does), he’s going to have to study some more game film of Nikola Jokic. If he doesn’t want to bother the Heat’s video personnel with such a request (word might travel through the grape vine that he isn’t 100 percent confident in his abilities), I…

Isaac Bonga 17 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2020)

In order to be the best Isaac in NBA history, Isaac Bonga has to surpass these players: -Isaac Austin -Isaac Humphries -Isaac Fontaine -Isaac Walthour Note: Jonathan Isaac doesn’t count because I’m only counting dudes whose first name is Isaac, not last name. Isaac Fontaine, Bonga has already passed, and not only that, he has…

Troy Brown 22 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2020)

Bradley Beal is currently freaking out because he (suddenly??? hard to believe he wouldn’t realize before) now believes that the current ‘Zards squad that he is currently inhabiting isn’t good enough to deserve his elite scoring talents. Which is crazy talk in my opinion, just look at what he has to work with right now:…

Furkan Korkmaz Career High 24 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (1/17/2020)

Furkan “Korverkmaz” Korkmaz, if the universe were fair and just, should have had 27 points in this game (which would have been even career-highier than this), but the refs, once again showing the gross incompetence that has made them a laughingstock all across the world, took one of his three-pointers away. I figure the 76ers…

Kendrick Nunn 22 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2020)

Quick quiz: name the 45 NBA players that, prior to tonight, had more field goals than Kendrick Nunn. No cheating by looking at any sort of lists of players or rosters or anything. If you name one that had fewer field goals than Nunn, you will receive a 0 percent grade. Be careful! And if…

Kevin Huerter 18 Points/1 Game-Winner Full Highlights (1/17/2020)

There are many adjectives which apply to Kevin Huerter: red-haired, tall, alive, ambulant, the list could go on and on, not literally forever but pretty close. But there was one adjective that was not on that list, that can now be placed there: Clutch. It’s possible that that adjective was already applicable to him, actually….
