Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
The Game 1 loss for the Cavaliers at home versus the Pacers was casually shrugged off. Darius Garland didn’t play and Cleveland may have been a little rusty after dispatching the Miami Heat in four games during the first round. Cleveland converted only 9-of-38 from downtown. The Game 2 loss was devastating. Despite being without […]

The Golden State Warriors strutted out of Target Center on Tuesday night with a 99-88 win despite Stephen Curry playing only 13 minutes. Shocking! But was it really? After dropping the first meeting against the Minnesota Timberwolves back in early December, the Warriors won the next three head-to-head meetings, and those were all without Jimmy […]

Mikal Bridges ($5,900) was having a horrible offensive game Wednesday in Game 2 vs. the Boston Celtics. He converted only 6-of-18 from the field and 2-of-8 from downtown, but Bridges has always been a player that stuffs the stat sheet. Wednesday was no different, as he grabbed seven rebounds and dished out five assists. But […]
