Cheick Diallo 16 Points Full Highlights (2/22/2019)

I don’t know how over-unders work or what they even are really, because I’m not a degenerate gambling-addicted schmoe, but what’s the over-under on Cheick Diallo getting a 20-20 game before the season is over? I’m going with 1000. Final answer. The Pelicans commentators (or at least Joel Meyers) seem to think it will happen,…

Kenrich Williams 19 Points Full Highlights (2/8/2019)

Over the span of two minutes in the third quarter, Kenrich Williams scored 13 straight points for the Pelicans. If he had done the same but in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter instead in this 122-117 win, everyone would be freaking out. Literally everyone, but I don’t see how the scenario that…

Cheick Diallo 18 Points Full Highlights (2/6/2019)

Add Cheick “Discount Diallo Cheick” Diallo to the ever-growing list of reasons why the Pelicans don’t even need/want Anthony Davis anymore. Why would you want a stadpadding chucker who only plays defense when it suits him on a team that is trying to win games? You wouldn’t. You want players like Julius Randle, who puts…

Ian Clark 18 Points Full Highlights (2/4/2019)

After seeing Ian Clark regress badly from his last year in Golden State to his first year in New Orleans, which was last year, you might have thought that he was done regressing. Or you might have hoped that he wouldn’t regress anymore. In both scenarios you would be wrong, because Ian Clark has definitively…

Jahlil Okafor 25 Points Full Highlights (2/3/2019)

Anthony Davis can go screw off to LA or wherever, just as long as he doesn’t stay in New Orleans. Because I don’t know if he got the message, if he didn’t, well, he’s getting it now: this is Jahlil Okafor’s team now. I don’t think there’s a single fan in the whole state of…

Frank Jackson Career High 25 Points Full Highlights (2/2/2019)

Frank “Frack Jankson” Jackson is only a rookie, so the “career high” designation doesn’t mean a whole lot at this point. Barring some career- or life-ending injury, he’s got at least a couple more seasons in the NBA coming his way, which means plenty of time to score more than 25 points. I’m fully aware…

Kenrich Williams 21 Points Full Highlights (1/30/2019)

Before the creation of this highlight video, I had no idea how to pronounce “Kenrich”. Was it “Kenrick” (like Kendrick minus the D) or “Ken-Rich” (like a dude whose first name is Kenneth Richard)? For some reason, I thought it was “Kenrick”, but I was still pronouncing it in my head as “Ken-Rich” even though…

Jahlil Okafor 27 Points Full Highlights (1/29/2019)

It’s official. Anthony Davis wants out of New Orleans after they spent over half a decade trying (and failing) to put a decent team around him. What does this mean for our favorite marginalized big man, Jahlil “Jah Rule” Okafor? This is going to sound like a cop-out answer but: it depends. If Alvin Gentry…

Jahlil Okafor 24 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2019)

The Jahlil Okafor redemption tour continues. His makes and misses from the last four games look like this: 9-of-11, 8-of-13, 9-of-12, and now 10-of-12. I would love nothing more than to say this resulted in four Pelicans wins, but that would be a lie. They did win the first of those, at least. But who…

Darius Miller 21 Points Full Highlights (1/24/2019)

DTB’S OFFICIAL* FUN** FACT*** OF THE DAY****: Darius Miller has been a teammate of Anthony Davis since they were both in their rookie years. There’s a bit of a technicality there in that Miller was out of the league in the 15-16 and 16-17 seasons, but other than that, both players have played for the…
