KZ not looking much better than last year. Precious probably going to pass him by. Not sure about KZ's potential yet. It's like he's still growing into his body.

Precious looks like a pure PF while KZ looks miscast at the 4

Really liked what I saw from KZ defensively his rotations and help D was good. Still going to be a while for him offensively I think though.

Precious looked nice definitely think he can be productive for us off the bench this season especially playing alongside Dragic.

Herro/Dragic/Nunn
Butler/Bradley
Robinson/Iggy/KZ
Harkless/Precious
Bam/Olynyk/Leonard

This is the rotation I'd like to see this season.

Tyler Herro looked good.... nothing else to say. Zion was unstoppable. We trying to hide Paul Eboua? would like to see him get some run
1. Herro 2. Bol Bol 3. Seko 4. Bruno
unless we trade up for Barrett or trade down for PJ Washington

Third string PG and trade bait for sure.

KZ is a project, meaning he may still be a year or 2 away, I think he's going to be a role-player and there's nothing wrong with that. He has potential but I think Precious has a lot more ands probably will be a much better NBA player. Precious could have went 4-8 spots higher in the draft and nobody would have said that it was a stretch.

again, the heat showing rebounding and turd quarter issues hopes this gets addressed before the start of the season

seems like a bust of a player to be honest. his shooting is very suspect, also you live by the 3 and die by the 3

Gabe Vincent and Chris Silva will probably play next game.

He reminds me a bit of Dorell Wright. Lacks fluid movement. Length for days, but everything seems forced and without proper pacing.

Nunn has talent, we've already seen it but possibly just not enough to be a good starter. He's slumping for whatever reason for now, it's quite possible if there's a trade he's going to be needed as a rotation player on the bench.

Precious should do well playing along side KO or Leonard off the bench with Gogi giving him easy baskets.

Sounds like KZ could have used some confidence of the sophomore SL player. Wrestling third string rn

Rich looks like a natural Maverick, but very unnatural at the same time-- mostly cause I dislike the jersey

JJ just needs to go bald, he doesn't deserve hair
