- Most teams have only one game left after this evening and for some clubs I'm sure they don't even want to play that.
- Five of the six picks came from two teams on separate stages of grief, the Thunder and the Lakers.
- Our lone outlier was Trevor going with Obi Toppin against the Wizards. The Knicks "lost" by winning against Washington and Toppin was a huge catalyst for that with 40 PRA including a career-high 35 points.
- Two participants had to utilize the Last Man In on the evening with each getting to a different step of the provision. Lou, to the shock of nobody, broke a six day blank streak with second step Isaiah Roby and his 20 PRA for the Thunder. Matt earned himself 26 PRA from first-stepper Dwight Howard who did his work in just 23 minutes.
- Keeping the hitting of all the gimmicks going, Ryan made Talen Horton-Tucker the fifth Laker picked out this season, surpassing the mark of four held by Golden State since Otto Porter Jr. was picked out on March 14th. THT earned him 28 PRA in a win.
- Closing out proceedings were the two undrafted rookies taken on the night. Austin Reaves has been a Los Angeles Lakers player for a lot longer than our top scorer has played for their squad, but Reaves was the night's silver medalist netting Colin 38 RBPRA.
- That leaves Al to take home the top score roses via Oklahoma City's Zavier Simpson. The man bringing the hook shot back into style had 52 RBPRA on a night where OKC played only six players.
- Optimally, that lack of depth allowed Georgios Kalaitzakis to find himself in possession of 70 RBPRA for the Thunder. The 60th overall pick is making the most of the dying days of the season. In terms of bench bargains, Bogdan Bogdanovic once again was the veteran bench bargain with 34 PRA against Miami while Josh Christopher made significantly more shots against Toronto en route to 58 RBPRA in defeat.
