Before the season started, I didn’t know what, if anything, to expect from Harry Giles. I knew that he had been drafted as an injured dude who was at one point a top prospect in the nation, but perhaps wasn’t one any longer. I figured that anything he did in the NBA was just a…

Mason Plumlee 17 Points Full Highlights (1/10/2019)
OFFICIAL DTB DISCLAIMER: Mason Plumlee does not get any assists to Nikola Jokic in this video. Neither does he receive any assists from Jokic. Plumlee and Jokic don’t even really seem to share the court in this video. There are no plays that one makes facilitated by the other. If you are a Serb trying…
Read MoreNikola Jokic Triple Double 18 Pts/14 Rebs/10 Asts Full Highlights (1/10/2019)
The group of Nuggets players walked through the tunnel back to their locker room, high fives and back-slaps proliferating. At the center of the group, and receiving most of the accolades from his teammates, was Nikola Jokic, who was grinning sheepishly. At that moment, everything seemed perfect: the team had won, the Nuggets were still…
Read MoreFrank Jackson 19 Points Full Highlights (1/9/2019)
I am now thinking about how satisfying/unsatisfying a highlight video comprised only of 19 Frank Jackson free throws would be. We were pretty close in this one, with 7 free throws alongside only 4 buckets, but still far from a wholly free-throw video. I mean, 19 points just from the stripe would be a really…
Read MoreFurkan Korkmaz 16 Points Full Highlights (1/9/2019)
Furkan “Chuckan Statpadmaz” Korkmaz lived up to his nickname by chucking a bunch of balls into a bunch of hoops (well, just one hoop) in the very end of garbage time against the Wizards, pushing his total from a blah and uninteresting 7 to an exciting and noteworthy 16. He only needed 50 seconds to…
Read MoreZach Collins 16 Points Full Highlights (1/9/2019)
I am now fondly remembering with a smirk on my face all the overreactions to Zach Collins’ 6-block opening night. Since it happened on national TV, and everyone was watching because when the season’s just starting you watch any NBA action you possibly can, there were a lot of people who had never seen him…
Read MoreMalcolm Brogdon 24 Points/9 Layups Full Highlights (1/9/2019)
HOW. HOW HOW HOW HOW. TELL US THE REASON. Everyone talks about how dominant Giannis is finishing around the basket, but here’s a little known stat for you: Malcolm Brogdon has only missed one… layup the whole year. If he’s trying a layup, you know it’s going to go in. Somehow. Inexplicably. To figure out…
Read MoreCameron Payne 16 Points Full Highlights (1/9/2018)
Cameron Payne has had a strong start to his Cavaliers career. After scoring ten in his Cavs debut, a fine total, he scored sixteen in this one, the second game of his Cavs tenure. In both games, his three-pointer looked solid, even though history tells us that his three-pointer is definitely not solid at all….
Read MoreMichael Beasley 19 Points Full Highlights (1/9/2019)
This game from Michael “Waffle Fries” Beasley is reminiscent of some of the games he had during his stint in New York last season, and before that, during his stints with the Bucks and Rockets. The quick-hitting scoring done off the bench on a variety of drives, ISOs, and jumpshots is fun to watch when…
Read MoreKyle Kuzma Career High 41 Points Full Highlights (1/9/2019)
This game was totally a REVENGE GAME for Kyle Kuzma. But it wasn’t revenge against a former team that he has played for. No, it was revenge against the favored team of his childhood growing up in Flint, Michigan, the Detroit Pistons. “Wait a minute, Dee Tee Bee,” you howl in bewilderment. “Why would Kuz…
