I was getting all sad and sentimental because I thought this might be D.J. Wilson’s last season with the Bucks, but I just peeped his contract details (the “Deej Deets”) and it looks like the Bucks picked up his extension, so he’s got one more year of failing to live up to potential for the…

Donte DiVincenzo 17 Points Full Highlights (8/13/2020)
I was really pleased with how Donte DiVincenzo played during the “regular” regular season. His shooting was drastically improved from year one to year two, and so was his everything else. But now, in the “bubble” regular season, DiVincenzo hasn’t been playing as well. In particular, his shooting has fallen off a cliff, and that…
Read MoreFrank Mason 18 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (8/13/2020)
After these last couple games from Frank Mason, I have changed my tune. No longer do I think he is some absolute fringe scrub who doesn’t deserve to be on an NBA roster any more than any of the other 400 G-Leaguers that are waiting for their chance. Now I think that he is an…
Read MoreFrank Mason 19 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (8/11/2020)
So the biggest news to come out of this game is that, in a moment of weakness, Giannis decided to headbutt Mo Wagner. That was a dumb move on his part and he’s totally gonna get suspended for it. I’m not a sports psychologist but I can only imagine that having to look at Wagner’s…
Read MoreBrook Lopez 24 Points Full Highlights (8/11/2020)
I was getting worried about Brook Lopez for a while there, but you can count me OFFICIALLY UNWORRIED because Lopez is back to his old tricks of splashing endless triples and being extremely gigantic in the process. The extreme giganticness he never really lost even when he was slumping, but the regained three-point accuracy is…
Read MoreSterling Brown 23 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (8/11/2020)
I’ll be honest here, I’m not very high on Sterling Brown. I never have been. He’s shown just enough, just barely enough, of on-court potential that I don’t resent the fact that he takes up a roster spot. His shooting has declined so much this season, however, that I do get upset when he is…
Read MoreKyle Korver 19 Points Full Highlights (8/10/2020)
Kyle Korver. Leading scorer for the Bucks. Is this the timeline I want to live in? No. But I don’t get a choice about which timeline I live in. I was cursed by some accident of god to inhabit this one, and try as I might, I can’t just will my consciousness into a different…
Read MoreBrook Lopez 34 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (8/8/2020)
Brook Lopez’s career-long quest for a 40-burger continues. I swear I remembered him having one with the Nets, but I might have been thinking of the time Nikola Vucevic dropped 40 on him, because basketball-reference indicates that his career-high is 39. My memory is failing me at an ever-increasing rate. DownToBuck’s Internetip (that’s a portmanteau…
Read MoreFrank Mason 11 Points/4 Assists Full Highlights (8/4/2020)
So Frank Mason is totally gonna be out of the league starting next season, but I’m glad he’s getting to play a little bit for the Bucks during this miraculous period of time where a.) the games don’t matter and b.) Eric Bledsoe is still coronaed. Every fan wants their team’s fifteenth man to succeed…
Read MoreBrook Lopez 23 Points Full Highlights (8/2/2020)
12 rebounds is really a lot for Brook Lopez, tying a season-high, in fact. But before you get all excited about how maybe he isn’t one of the “worst” rebounding centers in the league, remember that he basically had no choice but to grab the rebounds that he did. The Rockets didn’t play anyone this…
