Last time I made highlights for this guy I recklessly got over-hyped and accidentally ordered a 12-foot-tall 3D-printed purple statue of a naked Buddy Hield. Well, the thing finally arrived, and after the delivery guy laughed at me for a bit (that was mean of him), he agreed to help me drag it inside. It…

Buddy Hield 18 Points Full Highlights (3/10/2017)
DownToBuck might have had a lapse of judgement last night. So I was watching the box score for the Wizards-Kings game and I saw that Buddy was having a pretty good first quarter. You know what happens when I see a dude score thirteen points in a quarter, my hype gets the better of me….
Read MoreJusuf Nurkic Career High 28 Points/20 Rebounds/8 Assists/6 Blocks Full Highlights (3/9/2017)
A single grimy lightbulb illuminated the sparsely furnished room. A large man sat a cluttered desk, starting intently at the wall. Behind him, a black-and-white dog sat whimpering, pushing his bowl against his owner’s leg with his nose. “Shhhh, Tornjak. I feed you very soon. Being quiet now. Daddy is think.” Jusuf Nurkic muttered distractedly,…

“I ain’t goin’ back there. Nope. No way,” Tyreke Evans told his agent over the phone. “Tell ’em I refuse to report.” His agent sighed. “I’m afraid you don’t have that kind of clout, Tyreke.” Tyreke would not be shaken from his position. “I don’t care. I’m not playin’ in Sacramento again. You know how…
Read MoreWilly Hernangomez 14 Points Full Highlights (3/6/2017)
Willy Hernangomez, umbrella-less despite the chilling rain which fell from the flat grey sky, walked through the dreary cemetery until he got to the headstone he was looking for. The stone was new compared to its neighbors; it had not yet been eroded by the forces of time and nature. It read “NOAH” in clear…
Read MoreJusuf Nurkic 18 Points/6 Assists/5 Blocks Full Highlights (3/2/2017)
Jusuf Nurkic and his teammates were gathered in a Portland nightclub, celebrating their latest victory. Liquor was flowing freely; trays full of shot glasses were being brought to their tables in a never-ending stream, and expensive bottles of wine were crudely guzzled without remorse. “And then Kanter tried to post him up and he blocked…
Read MoreDTB’s Best NBA Dunks of the Month (February 2017 Dunkilation)
The first BoingAlert workout was quite possibly the least enjoyable half-hour of Nick’s life. After he had finally muscled his bed and desk out of immediate range of his television, Nick had gone right to the first exercise of the DVD without any special preparation and without even changing out of his everyday jeans and…
Read MoreRakeem Christmas 10 Points Full Highlights (2/27/2017)
DownToBuck is a man who always searches for answers. Not just ANY answers. Answers that contain within them the very essence of truth. That is why, for the past week, I’ve been trying to answer the question: is Rakeem Christmas the same person as Dionte Christmas, or are they different people? I started simply enough…
Read MoreJames Jones 14 Points Full Highlights (2/25/2017)
“Yo, James.” James Jones looked up from tying his shoes. “Hey LeBron.” “You gotta step it up tonight, man,” LeBron said. “I’m not playing so it’s gotta be you. All you. YGSIU.” He pronounced this as ‘igg-cee-you’. “You gotta step it up.” James was a little bit put off by LeBron’s attempts at motivational speaking,…

Walking up to his locker in the locker room of Wells Fargo Center, Richaun Holmes removed the earbuds from his ears, set his stuff down, and plopped down on the seat to start taking off his shoes. However, when his rear contacted the smooth wood, he heard an unexpected crumpling sound, as of paper. Standing…
