Caris LeVert 23 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (10/28/2018)

It’s early, but there are surreptitious murmurings of Caris LeVert having already been selected as this year’s Most Improved Player. If so, congrats to him. He really earned it with his efficient 21 points per game. I also heard that the Bucks were crowned the champions. So, uh, no reason to keep going with the…

Boban Marjanovic 13 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2018)

I was looking at the available players for the Wizards during this game, and I was wondering who was going to be able to handle Boban Marjanovic once he got in the game. Ian Mahinmi is barely an NBA player at this point, so not him. Not Thomas Bryant either, because he’s barely played in…

Dennis Smith Jr. Career High 27 Points Full Highlights (10/28/2018)

Sacrifices were made to make this the purest representation possible of Dennis Smith Jr.’s career -high 27 points on 12 made shots. There were no free-throws to ruin it in the first place, so I decided to go all out: this vid is nothing but 12 sequentially ordered buckets, no replays, no assists, no defense…

D’Angelo Russell 25 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (10/28/2018)

I’m starting to think that this 15 points/5 assists version of D’Angelo Russell is the last version we’re going to get. He’s been practically the same player since his second year in the league, the same kind-of-okay starting PG whose most lasting accomplishment is saying “he ain’t even stretch doe”. I guess he makes some…

Elie Okobo 18 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (10/28/2018)

Before we get into how great it is that Elie Okobo (a second-round Euro rookie) put up 18 and 7 this early in his career, I want to apologize for two things. Thing numero uno: the Suns commentators are still apparently doing that “proud to own the three point zone” thing that Fulton Homes (who…

Bryn Forbes 16 Points Full Highlights (10/27/2018)

Bryn Forbes is currently the third-leading scorer on the Spurs. By definition, that makes him the third option, right? I believe it does. And, if we look critically at the roster, there’s no real clear-cut third guy after DeRozan and Aldridge. Pau Gasol? Too old. Rudy Gay? Too old. Marco Belinelli? Too old. Patty Mills?…

Dwyane Wade 19 Points Full Highlights (10/27/2018)

“There’s been some kind of mistake,” the caller tells me. Just based on the urgency of the caller’s voice, and the timing of the call itself, the identity of the caller is clear: it is Dwyane Wade. “No mistake, Dwyane,” I answer coolly, leaning back in my luxurious office chair and propping my feet up…

Stanley Johnson 16 Points Full Highlights (10/27/2018)

I feel like, every time in the past that I have had harsh words for Stanley Johnson (specifically for his lack of production on offense), there’s at least one or two Stanley Johnson apologists who would enter the comment section of the video and tell me that he’s actually secretly really good and important to…

Vince Carter 12 Points Full Highlights (10/27/2018)

Vince Carter is old. That’s all there is to it. Not many players keep playing into middle age. I thought he would hang up the sneakers after his time with the Kings last season (anybody would want to retire from basketball after having to play for that franchise), but he defied my expectations by signing…

Elie Okobo 12 Points Full Highlights (10/27/2018)

Is this the guy who’s supposed to be a really good shooter? I’m not saying he isn’t; I genuinely don’t know, and since DraftExpress got paywalled into ESPN, I have no way to check. I could be thinking of Josh Okogie. Or Peter Jok. One thing’s for sure, though: this guy, named by official NBA…
