Malik Monk Career High 31 Points Full Highlights (1/24/2020)

When Malik Monk felt the sensation of cool stone against his bare flesh, he knew that he wasn’t where he was supposed to be. The last he remembered, he had been going with his teammates to some French nightclub that Nic swore had “the hottest girls in all of France”. Then somebody had made a…

Cam Reddish 20 Points Full Highlights (1/24/2020)

With this game, Cam Reddish has officially crawled out from the abyss of shooting below 30% on three-pointers (29.2%) onto the wide and verdant plain of shooting above 30% on three-pointers (30.5%). The abyss was a lonely and terrible place where his only companionship was other bigtime bricklayers like Jae Crowder, Brook Lopez, and Spencer…

Zion Williamson 15 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (1/24/2020)

Zion Williamson is getting a late start in the ROTY of the Year race, late enough that he’s probably not even going to be in contention for the award. Then again, the voters don’t necessarily have any idea who the best rookie is and why it’s Ja Morant, so I’m never really surprised by the…

Ja Morant 16 Points/12 Assists Full Highlights (1/24/2020)

With Zion Williamson back and playing, the guy who had been crowned ROTY of the Year practically back in his junior year of high school, Ja Morant has to keep his eyes on the prize to make sure that the prize isn’t snatched out of his grip. If we knew that the voters for ROTY…

Jaren Jackson Jr. 29 Points Full Highlights (1/24/2020)

The three-point contest over All-Star weekend is coming right up, and there is still no word on whether Jaren Jackson Jr. is participating. The silence on the NBA’s end is saying a lot; they know that as soon as they announce the participants and Jackson isn’t among them, there will be mass discontent and possibly…

Taurean Prince 18 Points Full Highlights (1/23/2020)

Taurean Prince missed out on a twenty-point game by blowing a layup in the fourth quarter, leaving him with just eighteen points, a point total that would most definitely NOT receive a highlight video had my highlight-making schedule been more busy. The blown layup was disappointing from a highlight video perspective, but from a game…

Jalen Brunson 17 Points Full Highlights (1/23/2020)

After a serious period of self-reflection where I sat naked under a tree at a local park for 24 hours straight without drinking or eating anything, I have come to the following conclusion about the nature of my internal thought processes: Since Jalen Brunson is similar to Malcolm Brogdon in name, stature, skin tone, musculature,…

Gary Trent 20 Points Full Highlights (1/23/2020)

Gary Trent seems to be following in the nigh-unfollowable footsteps of the late great Tony Snell (who is neither late nor great, but it sounds cool so I’m leaving it) when it comes to filling up the boxscore with stats, or, should I say, filling the boxscore up with zeros. In this game, Trent had…

Trevor Ariza 21 Points Trailblazers Debut Full Highlights (1/23/2020)

In 32 games for the Kings this year, the highest amount of points Trevor Ariza had was 18. In 1 game for the Blazers this year, the highest amount of points Trevor Ariza had was 21. I feel like the same sort of thing happened last year. The Suns signed him to a big deal…

Davis Bertans 17 Points Full Highlights (1/23/2020)

At first I wasn’t going to make this video. I said to myself “Bertans is averaging fifteen PPG per game right now so seventeen isn’t that impressive for him.” But my little kitty Japurri Purrker, who is smart enough to understand human speech, heard me talking to myself and started meowing really angrily at me….
