Khris Middleton · A mere three seasons removed from a championship run that included enough clutch shots to produce a short documentary, Khris Middleton used the In-Season Tournament to issue his opponents a much-needed reminder.

Middleton’s bucket provided the Milwaukee Bucks with a lead they wouldn’t relinquish again, with another score shortly thereafter. Middleton’s ice-and-vein scoring was enough to cool the Miami Heat for a signature victory on November 28, 2023, with the talented forward chipping in 17 points, eight rebounds, and one 3-pointer. · State of Mint
