Made a really awful first guess then got off track.  When I’m doing George Hill makes for a good random connector guess.  He brought me back just in time for the next guess that I got right.

George Hill is to Dribble what oujia is to Wordle.

With the amount he’s bouncing around the league at the end of his career, Westbrook is going to become as useful as George Hill in this game.

I’ve been using AEONS lately. Not as useful as I’d hoped. Lol

My lead off Wordle guess is always AUREI, 4 vowels with both A and E and a very common consonant.

I'm terrible at this Dribble game.  Based on the results ya'll posted today, I spent a few minutes thinking how I'd connect Russell Westbrook to Thad Young, only to get in the game to put in my guess and realize that's the wrong T. Young.  Trae Young was much easier for me.

I’m going to have to look up when my guess played with Jefferson, as my strategy this time was to pick a journeyman who had played with Redick.

Not my best effort, but I might have enjoyed the path that took me down the most.

I had it in 3, but it should have been 2 the way I went.  I didn't even know that the guy that played with both, actually played with both.

You guys got in my head.  I went for a couple of home runs that I knew played for both teams, but wasn't sure if their times overlapped with Giannis.  Turns out they didn't.

Vince Carter was my golden goose yesterday.
