Starting up a thread as there have been some guys signed up to play on the SL team. Same as the last few summers, not expecting much unless we add some draft picks this year but here are a few names so far. Some might be familiar with Keanu Pinder, who played at Arizona a few years ago and has been in the NBL. Bouncy 6-9 220 forward who's been playing center over there but looks OK handling and passing on the move and posting smaller players. Not sure his game translates if he can't play on the perimeter. Maybe has a little Kelly Oubre to his game?
Also expected to play are Jordan Goodwin, Isaiah Todd and Darius Bazley.Jasiel Rivero -
Per a basketball scout Marko Perusko (who tf is this?)
Offense:Defense:
- Versatile scorer, excellent strength and quickness
Good screener and roller
Bullies most PFs on the low post, but needs to add moves
Stretch big, but inconsistent shooter from deep
Average finisher with left handConclusion: Mobility, quicker, hard rim-rolling Marreese Speights who rarely shoots 3s (44% on 1 attempts per game in Liga ACB). So he's not Marreese Speights anymore. Just like Karim Jallow (26yo) who participated last summer and barely got minutes, Rivero has also been contacted by Suns scouting team for years and decided to play this time? Like, "This is gonna be my last chance! I want to get to stand on an NBA floor!" ???
- Fundamentally sound pick&roll defender, can be used in different ways
Holds his ground on the low post, but lacks the length to contest
Due to excellent footwork can switch on perimeter
Average rim protector
