You know those days when everything just flows perfectly? You're driving to work and exit the freeway because there's too much traffic. For you East Coast folk, a freeway is a toll way except that it's....free. Anyways, while traversing the local streets, you notice that all the lights turn green and you don't have to stop once until you reach the office.
What a feeling. Well, I had one of those days yesterday. I work from home so it wasn't the scenario I described above. Rather, it went a little something like this. I was scrolling through Twitter when the Player's Tribune account tweeted out an article from last year:
Sharpen the Arrow by Jamal Murray. In the description was the quote, "I grew up in a kung fu house. It wasn't until I got older that I discovered that most families didn't talk about the Shaolin Temple." I've always loved kung fu and that's a freaking unique story. Then I received a notification that
Garrett Temple scored 34 points.

Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers), which made me look like the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland. The Universe is a beautiful place sometimes. So, how did your day go? As for Temple, he's not fantasy relevant. At least not on a consistent basis. He averages around seven shots per game and 25 minutes. He plays for the Kings, so he can get 15 minutes one game or 40 minutes, which he got last night. He can shoot the 3 and chip in across-the-board stats. He's scored double figures in 16 out of the 43 games he's played and hoisted up at least 10 shots in eight games. If you can predict when those games happen, then you deserve your own 976 number.
Here's what else I saw last night:
