24-year-old Deni Avdija playing at a ridiculous level. Aside from his stat line last night, he was +24 in a game that Portland lost by 5 points.

Averaging 25/7/5 on 48/36/85 shooting through 9 games.

College basketball finally returns today😃

Bluesky's CBB activity is FAR too low, but I'll keep posting here all the same. Here's a big Starter Pack I created about a year ago. Share it! If there are accounts posting about ball near-daily that should be added, let me know and I'll share tonight.

The best thing in the NBA last night - Nick Smith going for 25pts (10-15 FG & 5-6 3pt) and 6ats in a Lakers win.

Been a long road for Smith, who's just 21-years-old.

Great to see him playing with confidence again.

I thought Parker Robinson was under-recruited coming out of the summer.

He could end up being better for Oklahoma State than people may expect.
