It rewards you for correctly identifying the player who finishes the night with the highest combined total of points, rebounds, and assists across all games. Instead of beating a single prop line, you are competing against the entire slate. That changes how you should think about volume, usage, and game environment. The goal is simple. Pick a player who can post a ceiling game. This breakdown focuses...

The quiet ones are usually the most surprising, and yes, I’m talking about trade rumors. For years, the Chicago Bulls were expected to act like sellers, yet they stood pat and only moved players once their value had nearly evaporated. It’s a questionable strategy, one that certainly isn’t earning any Executive of the Year votes, but somehow it’s managed to keep Artūras Karnišovas in his seat. Now, in a bit of a plot twist, the Bulls are actually rumored to be doing the right thing. E...

Another good win for the Celtics. I love that Queta is getting love instead of all the comments about how bad the Celtics center rotation is. More fans that are trashing their own team and wants to trade them all. Seems like Buzelis is the only player they like. Celtics are lucky to have Joe Mazzulla and it seems most other fan bases know it. Celtics are 2nd in the East. Who would have thought it? My favorites are in bold. What are yours? &n...

Since we’re on a good run with Blackhawks prospect content right now, let’s stay with the future of the Chicago Blackhawks. Blackhawks prospect Roman Kantserov did an interview with Daria Tuboltseva at R.com about his season, an NHL future and moving to center. It’s a good, deep interview with a lot to take away. A couple comments that stood out to me. The first quote that got my attention was what he said about the Blackhawks still actively recruiting him to sign: “To be fair...

I think by now most understand the dangers of the dreaded 2nd apron. However, I’ll sheepishly admit that I may have missed the differences between the 1st apron and the luxury tax lines.
