The Blazers won on a ridiculous last-second play. All 13 Spurs players played over 12 minutes in the close battle. With their eighth seed clinched, Portland rested both Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum, which opened the door for Shabazz Napier (32/6/5) to have the game of his l

Clearly, while he was with the Nuggets, Melo was one of the game's elite all-around offensive players (though his defensive stats definitely left a lot to be desired). But, once he forced his way to the Knicks, the steady decline be

Wade was picked at number five overall in the original draft as many people thought that big man prospects were probably a better fit for their rosters. Also, he is a little shorter than average for a two-gu

The Bucks were sensational from three-point range, going 16-for-28 on the night. Oddly enough, they attempted just five free throws in the victory, hitting three of them. Gianni Antetokounmpo (10/11/10) recorded a triple-double over 36 minutes played in the low-scoring contest. The Hornets played without Kemba Walker, who sat out to r

He was named the Western Conference Rookie of the Month in December and also won MVP of the 2017 Rising Stars Challenge after posting a game-high 36 points (9-14 3FG) and a game-high 11 assists. The Canadian is a star in the mak

David West was originally selected at 18 and no one could have known that he would still be in the NBA playing his rugged style after all these years. Coming out of Xavier, the Hornets were the team that got

The Warriors rested Klay Thompson and the Jazz were without All-Star Gordon Hayward due to a quad contusion in this matchup. Rudy Gobert (17/18/0) and company stole the win on the road from Steph Curry (28/4/4) and his crew. Interestingly, the Jazz made 13 three-pointers compared to Golden State’s n

West has been an All-Star twice while playing with Chris Paul in New Orleans during the 2008 and 2009 seasons. The big man is averaging 14 points and six rebounds for his career as he is now a role player for the San Antonio Sp

The Milwaukee Bucks guard usurped free agent signing Matthew Dellavedova as the starting point guard earlier this year and under the tutelage of the legendary Jason Kidd, has come on leaps and bounds. He is in the discussion for ROY and many teams are kicking themselves for not spotting him earlier in the dr

Paul George (27/2/5) scored 19 of his 27 points in the first half as the Pacers offense clicked all night long. Shooting 57.6 percent from the field, Indiana held the 76ers to 46.7 percent shooting. In the loss, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot (24/5/3) set a career-high in points and went 8-for-12 shooting, including 4-for-5 from th

Coming off of a game in which they blew a 26-point lead in the fourth quarter last night, the Cavaliers blew an 11-point lead in the fourth in this game and eventually lost in overtime. Playing without LeBron James and Kyrie Irving, Cleveland couldn’t get the job done down the stretch, despite an amazing game by Deron Williams (35/7/9). Hassan Whiteside (23/18/1) double-doubled in the must-win game for Mi

Depending on who you ask, D-Wade is the third to fourth best shooting guard ever and by all accounts a sure-fire Hall of Fame candidate. He is still getting it done today and would have been huge wherever he was draf

Just last month, the 19-year-old posted an impressive 17 points, seven rebounds, two assists, two steals and five blocks in a loss to the Sacramento Kings. He was named Western Conference Rookie of the Month in February and he will be an important piece of a young core for the Suns in the fut
