He reminds me a little of Dylan Windler.

He's likely a stash, and trying to impress Bogut

The dream is Duncan Robinson 2.0.

His shot is smooth, like a hot knife through butter.

With Jessup coming over next year and the emergence of Smiley, Minny's 1st may not even make the team.

Do we even have to wait a year? Doesn't there season end like in February or March?

Is Smiley actually emerging or just getting older? Not saying he isn't actually emerging, but I'm not convinced that he is. I don't think his contract becomes guaranteed until July so he could very well be gone after this season.

Didn't think green font would be required, but I suppose so. My bad.

What does Jessup's defense look like? All of those highlights are his offense. Apparently this guy guarded the opposing team's best offensive player, so I'm looking to see if he's anywhere close to being Klay Thompson light.

That’s what I wanna know. But I think their plan is for him to come over next year. Roster and cap reasons.

I was pretty mad with this pick knowing zero about him and having Hinton and Stanley on the board.

Still prefer either of those guys, but I’m officially intrigued and excited to follow Jessup this year.

Extended his arm right in the passing lane at 1:26 for a pretty nice steal.

The entire game was on YouTube. His d was solid, not spectacular. He wasn’t regularly guarding the best guy, but they never had to hide him . No complaints.

Also, he seemed to know where he was supposed to be.

If they drafted Hinton or Stanley they would basically be 2-way players. Instead they picked up a shooter they could stash and still have a chance at Hinton and Stanley being undrafted or at worst any number of other undrafted players on a 2-way. Locking up the rights to a player they liked without paying him is pretty useful.

Hinton is the guy I wanted and they could’ve still looked into him as a ufa. But we do kind of have a log jam at the position and need a shooter so I liked the pickup.
