Welcome to a revamped version of Digging For Diamonds, a series with a long history here at TDG. This year we’ll be releasing articles twice a month with prospects outside our top 100. We’ll give you deep dives on longshots and who we think should be on your radar. Each

Prior to the suspension of the NBA season, the Oklahoma City Thunder had solidified themselves as one of the most well balanced teams and a tough matchup every night. Among the reasons for this include a post prime peak all campaign from 34 year old Chris Paul,  Shai Gilgeous Alexander

The Arizona Diamondbacks minor league system has dramatically improved since Mike Hazen left Boston to become the General Manager of the team.
