If Ryan Dunn can shoot…

I'm gonna be insufferable

I have a friend who thinks Sheppard will be a huge bust.

The guy has feel, it's just a matter of his body developing and holding up.

He's gonna be why they get rid of Green. Sheppard is another in a very long line of Kentucky ballers.

Green will be why they get rid of Green.

No faith in the late season surge then?

Coach Bud interview

Dunn’s shot doesn’t look bad, which gives me hope…of course Okogie’s form isn’t bad either…

Oso's form is so rough. Hope he can at least be a consistent FT shooter. Went from 74% to 54% to 62% in college. He didn't take a ton of FTs but he's still gotta be able to make them.

Dunn's got a good touch to go with the form. Usually guys with no offense don't have that kind of touch, so there's some hope there. I think he and Oso will be more aggressive looking for their offense tomorrow night but still need the guards do their jobs getting them the ball.

I do like that both seem like smart guys that work hard and really want to improve.

Yeah, I almost wish our team were worse so we could just play the rooks and let them get reps. Or, that we had a thinner bench, or something. Or that the culture of the NBA were more permissive toward letting rookies get minutes.

If they are good enough to play, they'll play.

Looks like he didn’t play well tonight, but there was a game in between on Sunday and he went 22/7/6/5 on 9/15 shooting…so 2 great games and 1 dud.

A couple articles - Good recap of our main guys on the SL team. Then the 2nd article makes the case for Wong, a little click bait-y comparing him to Bronny but only because they were both picked 55th in their respective drafts.

Maybe LeBron should adopt Wong.

No. He definitely has talent, but I am not convinced he has what it takes to consistently be an efficient scorer or 2-way player.

Spot on with the click bait, because the comparison is silly. Wong has 4-5 years of college ball and a year in the G-League. Bronny has barely played outside of his high school career. I'm not a Bronny-defender by any means (he isn't good and he has gotten a lot due to who his dad is), but that writer is going out of his way to take a shot that doesn't even have merit.
