Cade Cunningham is back from a collapsed lung, and that's great news for the Pistons! What's not great? Teams being locked into a playoff spot starting to rest their guys... but if we look hard enough, we might have some more backups worth grabbing for the season's final three game days.

The very last silly season board is here, and it's JAMMED with names, as some of the tankiest teams are tanking even harder by going to 8- or 9-man rotations. This could actually be kind of fun.

Cooper Flagg went bananas with 51! That's rad. But we also had 6 out of 9 games end in blowouts, and many with 30-point margins. That's not good. Perhaps we can find an add or two mixed in the piles of dung.

It's the kind of tanking we've always wanted. Don't play everyone 20 minutes. Play a very select few guys 40 minutes so we can get some actual value out of them! The Jazz and Bucks obliged, at least for a night - can we afford to make some adds?

We've got teams going in all different directions these days, and Wednesday we saw every type! The Jazz and Wizards had a tank battle, the Pacers are playing good teams so the real players are back in the rotation, the Bulls lost their entire center collection, and that's just the tip of the iceberg from an absurd night of silly season hoops.
