https://youtu.be/LyN1McmHaYE Bryn Forbes was walking down a seemingly infinite hall. The passage of time was marked only by his footsteps, and his only indications of forward progress were the occasional fountain on the floor or a bench along the wall that he walked past. But no matter how far he walked, he never reached an…

Alize Johnson 20 Points/21 Rebounds Full Highlights (4/29/2021)
https://youtu.be/htIlwuNfWYg OFFICIAL DTB DISCLAIMER: I did not show all of Alize Johnson’s rebounds in this video. It says “21 rebounds” in the title, but “21 rebounds” are not what is depicted. “21 rebounds” is merely a note of Johnson’s rebound total for the game. The only rebounds you see are the ones he gets in…
Read MoreIsaiah Stewart 20 Points Full Highlights (4/29/2021)
https://youtu.be/IUwlIZuYvRk I don’t know very many things about Pistons fans. In fact, the list of things that I know about Pistons fans is so short that I can enumerate it fully and not even come close to hitting YouTube’s draconian 5,000-character limit on video descriptions: 1. They enjoy Jet’s pizza above all other pizza chains…
Read MoreKhem Birch Career High 20 Points Full Highlights (4/29/2021)
https://youtu.be/SYg-_S6HiOA When it was rumored that Khem “The Alkhemist” Birch was going to get released by the Magic and picked up by the Raptors, there was a lot of buzz about this potential move. And I just didn’t understand the buzz at all. I still don’t really understand the buzz, but this video description will…
Read MoreDewayne Dedmon 18 Points Full Highlights (4/28/2021)
https://youtu.be/d_YF-86CekE For a brief period of time, just two seasons, Dewayne “Judge Dedd” Dedmon was a stretch-five. He wasn’t a particularly prominent stretch-five, but the 2018-19 season saw him shoot 38% from deep, so I would say that he was a very effective stretch five even if most casual fans had no idea who he…
Read MoreFacundo Campazzo 19 Points/10 Assists Full Highlights (4/28/2021)
https://youtu.be/AjeZkrTfP6U The Nuggets’ commentary team has a long history of trying to incorporate phrases from other languages into their broadcast. If there’s a foreign player on the roster, you can bet that you’ll be hearing a catchphrase said in that player’s native tongue. I remember this most clearly with Danilo Gallinari and his time in…
Read MoreMatt Thomas 17 Points Full Highlights (4/28/2021)
https://youtu.be/XdEhgOdHQOg Since I kicked Tyler Herro off my channel over the off-season, the glorious halls of scrubdom otherwise known as the DownToBuck YouTube channel have been noticeably bare of one important thing: unpigmented white dudes from Wisconsin. Being myself an unpigmented white dude from Wisconsin, it is important to consistently upload videos for players who…
Read MoreKelly Olynyk 28 Points Full Highlights (4/27/2021)
https://youtu.be/JFbUvDiXFkE It doesn’t matter too much with only a few weeks left to go in the season, but I think Kelly Olynyk is OFFICIALLY off my channel for now. He’s averaging 18 PPG per game since getting traded to the Rockets, and in my semi-retired state, I need to be strict with my cutoffs. Just…
Read MorePayton Pritchard Career High 28 Points Full Highlights (4/27/2021)
https://youtu.be/vLO5tlakOLo OFFICIAL DTB APOLOGY: I hereby OFFICIALLY APOLOGIZE for spelling Payton Pritchard’s name incorrectly when I initially uploaded a previous highlight video of his. In a moment of embarassing ineptitude, I spelled his name as “Peyton”, having gotten the spelling confused with Elfrid Peyton, who is an inferior point guard playing for the Knicks. This…
Read MoreAnfernee Simons 27 Points/9 Threes Full Highlights (4/27/2021)
https://youtu.be/4dRs55qAJ6c Sometimes, a moment of benevolence will strike me. While I normally withhold the juiciest NBA factoids from wider distribution to the unwashed commoners, there are times when I feel compelled to share my factoids with the plebeians which endlessly rabble at my feet. Now is one of those times. Using the advanced analytical service…
