Naz hasn't been efficient since start of Feb. 6th man role is perfect for him


I definitely guarantee you that some team would offer to sign him to be a starter


You know what...go ahead. He's the asset I would love to max out by moving this offseason if we move someone. His feet often seem like they in cement blocks on defense while guys blow by him. He is a hot and cold shooter. He doesn't box out well....we give up a lot of 2nd (and 3rd and 4th) chance opportunities when he is on the floor. When he is hot, he makes us very difficult to beat, but when he is not he just floats at the 3 point line looking for his shot. If you look at his 10 game splits this year, he has three 10 game splits where he shoots less than 30% from behind the arc and three 10 game splits where he is over 45% from behind the arc. I love him on Prize Picks because I can always count on the over for 3-point FG's attempted.

Or being promised a starting PG position in contender PHO and being moved to the bench in falling apart PHO?

I've only just watched the replay (5 kids tends to get in the way of "me time") but just had to say that Randle had a GREAT game - I'm not a fan of his and have been very critical, but credit where credit is due. Awesome game.
