For a guy who's only attempted 39 career 3 pointers, Mozgov has a solid stroke.

It is so obvious that Zubac has more potential by far than any of our other centers on the roster. I really hope, he gets some playing time because the rotations so far in these preseason games doesn't give much hope for it.

Zubac has ton of potential but he's nowhere near ready for regular season rotation right now.

If you can see in the background of this interview, its 3 minutes of Mozgov absolutely destroying Zubac in a one on one workout.



Imagine what better centers can do to him in a regular season game. He will get scratch minutes here and there in blow out games and take a lot of teething in the D-League for a couple of seasons before he becomes ready for anything resembling a rotation center.

Zubac is extremely talented but i agree with you that he'll need some seasoning before he's a full time starter in this league.

But, in that video Zubac is taking step back jumpers and hook shots lol. It doesn't seem like he's actually taking it 100% serious. More like he's working a few extra things for the arsenal. Mozgov does get off a solid dunk off a spin move, and a nice lay up off position but I wouldn't say either "destroyed" the other. Mozgov does get stopped at the rim by Zubac off that same spin move in like the first or second play tho.

Right now this team needs some form of consistency and a vet like Moz will provide that. Zubac will have his chance tho, needs a little time.
