- 26 of the Association's 30 teams were in action on Thanksgiving Eve. With no games tomorrow, there was a deep pool to swim in for picks.
- However, the Last Man In Boys only had one team to work from and that was once again the Sacramento Kings. From manual and LMI selections, the Kings have been used 17 times between 7 different players through Turkey Day. On this night it was Matt getting 29 PRA from three-timer De'Aaron Fox before being ejected, while Lou got 17 PRA from spot-starting (and debuting) Alex Len.
- On the opposite end of the spectrum, only Colin has taken Phoenix Suns this year and he kept that trend alive with Mikal Bridges. He pushed Colin over the 1000 PRA mark for the campaign with 19 PRA in Phoenix's win over the Cavaliers.
- Right ahead of him in the standings is Al with Desmond Bane. I was originally going to make a Dark Knight Rises Bane quip here but I'm a bit too lazy at the moment so I'll just say he had 25 PRA but still saw his Grizzlies lose to the Raptors.
- Top score wasn't that high a mountain to climb today, but it was one shy for our game leader Ryan who picked into a team that had a plethora of tasty Pick One options against the Heat, the Minnesota Timberwolves. D'Angelo Russell's 29 PRA was his best performance in the Pick One in 2021-22.
- Nevertheless it was not enough to best Mo Bamba's 30 PRA for Trevor against Charlotte. It's been night and day for the Magic big man this year as through three selections last season he ended with 39 PRA TOTAL.
- Optimally, it was once again a Scottie Barnes day as the fourth overall pick continued to be a stalwart for the reloading Raptors with a rookie-boosted 58 PRA. Off the bench, Malik Beasley found some comfort returning back to the Minnesota bench with 32 PRA. The rookie Bench Bargain was Chris Duarte in Indiana. After struggling initially after losing his starting place, he's been solid as a reserve like against LA with a rookie-boosted 42 PRA.
