JaKarr Sampson 20 Points Full Highlights (5/14/2021)

https://youtu.be/1qHiMMg-eS4 Every time I make a JaKarr Sampson highlight video, I express wonderment that he is still in the league. But he’s the one who continues to collect NBA checks (modestly-sized NBA checks, but NBA checks nonetheless), whereas the total of my NBA checks to date is approximately $0.00, give or take zero cents. So…

Gabriel Deck 18 Points Full Highlights (5/14/2021)

https://youtu.be/2NOot4gQ0jI This is my 14th video of the day. In past years of DownToBuck, that would be nothing notable (I’m pretty sure that on one of the regular season finale days I made over 50), but for this year of DownToBuck, the semi-retired year, it’s WAY too many. And there’s games from the day after…

Naji Marshall 20 Points Full Highlights (5/14/2021)

https://youtu.be/uWgI__rWze0 Here is a comprehensive list of players that Naji Marshall reminds me of: 1. Nazr Mohammed. Mohammed is famous for once pushing down LeBron James. I’m sure Marshall would do that too if he had the chance. Otherwise, Marshall and Mohammed don’t have similar playstyles, but their names are reminiscent of each other. That’s…

Tyler Cook 17 Points Full Highlights (5/14/2021)

https://youtu.be/aE7N_Gxqsyg If you forgot that Tyler Cook played for the Nuggets last season, I don’t blame you. I absolutely still think you’re a dirty casual who should GTFO the frick off my channel, but I don’t blame you for being a dirty casual. He got signed by them to play in the Bubble, which still…

Killian Tillie 16 Points Full Highlights (5/14/2021)

https://youtu.be/zTU8ve8lQsM Casual viewers of the Memphis Grizzlies may have found themselves confused at points this season: they would see John Konchar on the court, okay, that’s normal, but then ANOTHER John Konchar would appear on the court so that there were two John Konchars, or maybe the camera would cut to a shot of a…

Nickeil Alexander-Walker 30 Points Full Highlights (5/14/2021)

https://youtu.be/HwiJ0Y9OPR0 Nickeil Alexander-Walker AKA “Hell NAW” saw a large amount of improvement from his rookie year to his sophomore year. As a rookie, he was a blatant shot chucker who shot 37% from the field, which was among the worst field goal percentages for players who played significant roles for their team that season (Terrence…

Malachi Flynn Career High 26 Points Full Highlights (5/14/2021)

https://youtu.be/-HY2wju631w The Raptors may be basically done for the season, playing for nothing, but their fans have not checked out. At least, not ALL of them have checked out. The team itself may be dying to get the heck out of Tampa and get started with the offseason, but these Raptors diehards, they just want…

Mychal Mulder Career High 28 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (5/14/2021)

https://youtu.be/9TrnnuiBMCk The more I watch Mychal Mulder, the more I become convinced that the inevitable conclusion: the Warriors don’t even miss Klay Thompson. Who would miss Klay Thompson when you have a guy who is literally named after Klay’s DAD, and who can hit just as many three-pointers as Klay, and has an absolutely immaculate…

Jay Scrubb 17 Points Full Highlights (5/14/2021)

https://youtu.be/O5fnNRmkTGA I’m honestly overwhelmed by the amount of jokes I could be making right now. I’m paralyzed, I can’t settle on just one when there are SO MANY. And I know I should probably be more respectful to this dude, because it’s not like he chose his last name, and he’s probably really tired of…

Markus Howard 20 Points Full Highlights (5/14/2021)

https://youtu.be/ASEhm0me_NM Watching Markus Howard drop twenty points on the Pistons makes me realize a few things: 1. Being a short man in the NBA is really tough. Defenders are too tall and it’s hard to even get a shot off, whether it’s a layup or a jumper. But all attempts at introducing a basketball league…
