Dennis Schröder’s dour expression contrasted starkly with the merriment surround him. The “Wunderbar Weiner Platter” that was placed in front of him at the table was untouched. Seated around were his Atlanta Hawk’s teammates, all happily conversing and enjoying their food. Chants of “Eins, Zwei, Drei, sich betrinken!” emanated throughout the dimly lit space. Walking…

Jimmy Butler sat in the boarded-up, abandoned building that he used as a safehouse and looked down at the glowing blue basketball in his hands.

Donald Sloan opened the door furtively, uncertain what lay in wait behind it.

Read MoreKelly Olynyk 18 Points Full Highlights (11/5/2014)
Kelly Olynyk knocked on the door of his parent’s house. It looked much the same as it did when he left, five years ago. The paint was a little chippier perhaps, the trees in the front yard a little less vibrant. The welcome mat, in all its threadbare glory, had, as ever, the opposite of…

Gerald Green, dressed as a banana, walked into the costume party with dread.

Gary Neal sat in his condo and smiled. His team hadn’t won the game, but he didn’t really care about that.
