Dennis Schröder 32 Points Full Highlights (11/21/2018)

Walking the back halls of Oracle Arena, Dennis Schröder cleared his head before the game. It was always beneficial for his state of mind if he took some time away from his teammates and coaches. Underneath his jersey, he could feel the rough brown fabric of the Magic Lederhosen against his skin, and he took…

Buddy Hield 25 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2018)

So today I went out to the local U-Haul and rented a moving truck for the day. The girl at the counter asked me what I was using it for and I didn’t want to tell her the truth (which would have taken a long time to tell, plus she wouldn’t even believe it) so…

Nikola Vucevic 28 Points/9 Assists Full Highlights (11/18/2018)

Nikola Vucevic shifted nervously on his feet. “You sure you’ve got the plan?” The scantily-clad escort that he had hired for the occasion continued looking annoyed. “Yeah, I’ve got it. You do realize, however, that getting punched in the face falls significantly outside the range of services I typically offer to my clients.” Now it…

Buddy Hield 23 Points Full Highlights (11/17/2018)

My twelve-foot-tall purple plastic 3D-printed naked statue of Buddy Hield, as I’ve mentioned previously, has really been into goats lately. The better part of the last month, he’s occupied his days by using my laptop to watch videos of goats on YouTube. So I started making plans to take him to the zoo in the…

D.J. Augustin 22 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (11/17/2018)

D.J. Augustin opened his eyes and knew immediately that something was wrong. His surroundings were completely unfamiliar, and a man wearing a mask and robe was standing above him. His form was illuminated dimly by flickering candles which ringed the stone dais upon which D.J. lay. “You were not supposed to awaken,” the man said…

Bojan Bogdanovic 22 Points Full Highlights (11/17/2018)

“Dear Father, I hope this correspondence finds you well, but maybe it won’t, because I think I saw your face in a news report showing the recent protests in Mostar. Remember, the head that sticks out farthest is the one that gets chopped off first. You taught me that so many years ago, and that…

Marc Gasol 29 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (11/14/2018)

The giant, bearded man walked triumphantly through the grand stone arch that was the gate to the realm. “I am here as dictated by the prophecy,” he proclaimed. The keeper of the gate was a small, withered-looking old man. “Welcome,” he said softly in a voice made ragged by age. The bearded man looked around….

Quinn Cook 18 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (11/13/2018)

Quinn Cook watched the unfolding locker room argument with only mild interest. “Do you think we should separate them?” he asked a nearby Jonas Jerebko. “Nah,” was Jonas’ short reply. Quinn nodded in agreement. Arguments in NBA locker rooms were common, especially between players known for their on-court intensity. However, when the argument started to…

Jeff Teague 24 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (11/12/2018)

Jeff Teague could hardly contain the poeticism bursting from within him. Hastily entering his apartment, he didn’t even bother to turn on the lights before walking briskly to his desk. Once there, he lit the two candles which rested upon the flat wood surface, granting him just enough illumination to begin the task at hand….

Kelly Oubre 19 Points Full Highlights (11/9/2018)

Kelly Oubre sat on the floor of the locker room, working on his project with studious concentration. Most of his teammates were ignoring him, too upset about a close loss to the Magic to do anything but change their clothes in silence. However, Austin Rivers couldn’t help but walk over to get a closer look….
