I assume he will be our starting point guard with Tyler injured? A point guard who averaged 0.2 assists per game in his last NBA season?

he was listed as a shooting guard in his last three nba season, although he had a 38% usage rate in his nba year, meaning he had the ball in his hands a lot, and he should be doing more with it other than shoot.

Wondering if there's an agent play/obligation here. His agent has a nice roster of player including Giannis and Steph Curry. Clearly we're plotting for future FA signings....

Ugh, just when I was thinking I could maybe get some cheap Suns tickets when the play the Jazz on the 25th... now the arena will sell out and there will just be a sea of Jimmer BYU jerseys....

Or maybe because Ryan Anderson gave up some money coming here?

I’m pretty familiar with Jimmer...he’s not a pg. He’s a ball dominant sg that doesn’t create for others and can’t defend either backcourt position. He can really score though...If he’s just taking Crawford’s minutes, I could see it working out. He’s a better shooter/scorer at this point than Crawford. In the end, it’s pretty risk free. We give him 10 games and see what he can do. Probably put a non guaranteed 2nd year on the deal in case he surprises.

So... He had 1.2 assists in those six games? I want to see the 0.2 assist. Anybody have a video?

Would it be better if it was shown as 0.166666666666667 assists per game?

Really sucks because he was such a bright spot. Think I remember him injuring and favoring it early in the NO game. Hope he's back next year with us fully healed.

Does this mean George King will finally get a chance to play?
