Jerami Grant 18 Points Full Highlights (2/2/2015)

Jerami Grant sat on the bench as he watched his teammates take on the Cleveland Cavaliers. He liked the playing time he was receiving lately, but sometimes it was just better to relax a bit on the sideline and appreciate the game for what it was. Luc Richard Mbah a Moute subbed out. Walking over…

Bradley Beal 26 Points Full Highlights (1/31/2015)

“Marcin, can you do me a favor?” asked Bradley Beal, putting on his coat in preparation for a night carousing about town. “What’s that?” “If we see Denise at any of the clubs that we visit, could you be a bro and not say anything to her? I know you keep ribbing me about how…

Cody Zeller Career High 21 Points Full Highlights (1/31/2015)

The president sat in his presidential chair. The seat of power, as it were. It still didn’t seem real to him, to be the most powerful man in the world. He thought back on the events that had brought him to this place, the fateful proclamation made in Denver. Who knew words could be so…

Donatas Motiejunas Career High 26 Points Full Highlights (1/30/2015)

Driving home from practice, Donatas rolled down the driver’s seat window of his expensive SUV. With the mild winter air blowing across his face, he thought that Houston wasn’t too different from his native Lithuania. Perhaps a bit more spread out, but the Texas winter was not far removed from a Lithuanian spring or autumn….

JaKarr Sampson 13 Points Full Highlights (1/28/2015)

The locker room was a jubilant place after a blowout win over the Pistons. There was much laughter as the assorted Sixers discussed their plans for the evening. However, to the side, JaKarr Sampson sat silently, looking down at his lap. “Hey rook, what’s bugging you?” asked Luc Richard Mbah a Moute, noticing that the…

Tyreke Evans 25 Points Full Highlights (1/28/2015)

Again, my phone rings. This time, I know exactly who it is, as this customer has been assigned a special ringtone: Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe”. I put the finishing touches on a new video description, then give in to the phone’s pleas to be answered. “Hello, Mr. Evans. I was wondering when I…

Kris Humphries 21 Points Full Highlights (1/25/2015)

Andre Miller had stayed late signing autographs. When he got to the locker room, there was nobody there. He sat down in his locker to start taking off his shoes. Since there was nobody to talk to, he instead looked around idly at his surroundings. The locker next to his, which was Kris’, was fully…

Tyreke Evans 24 Points/12 Assists Full Highlights (1/25/2015)

My phone rings, playing the generic “Damn it Feels Good to be a Gangster” ringtone that it defaults to when it doesn’t find the caller in my contact list. Busy with some clip editing, I let it ring for ten seconds before answering. “DownToBuck speaking. Make it quick.” “It’s Tyreke. You gonna make a video…

D.J. Augustin Career High 35 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (1/25/2015)

DJ Augustin looked uneasily at the storefront of Mrs. Mysteria, Detroit’s finest psychic and purveyor of occult products. The grimy wooden facade stood as a stark contrast to the other stores in this particular strip mall. Maybe he should just go next door and pick up some Chinese food? Ignoring his misgivings, he walked in,…

Damjan Rudež 18 Points/4 Threes/1 Dunk Full Highlights (1/25/2015)

Kevin Pritchard sat by himself, brainstorming ideas on a blank sheet of paper. The off-season was a time for relaxing, but it was also a time for getting ahead of your competition. Doodles for a new mascot, little catchphrases for the commentators to use, thoughts on improving the game-day experience, they were all represented on…
