Iowa Wolves/G League talk

Isnt it likely that CJ Fulton is the plan?

I think "the plan" is stretching it. A plan, perhaps, but he seems from a distance like your typical summer league player. But maybe they'll see something I haven't yet. Perhaps they think they've uncovered the next TJ McConnell. Connelly did technically allude to him in his post-draft press scrum, so I guess he's not a total nobody.

The little I can find on him is that he seems to be a good passer and can shoot. 6'3 about 190 is what I'm finding.

I'm sure I'll be completely sold on him after about an hour of research, no worries...my database just takes a minute to load in these guys sometimes.

Plus, he's Irish, you know he is going to be feisty!

Somehow I missed that Newton was throwing lobs to Clingan and shooting deep threes in UConn

I've given up on getting hyped for these guys. The overwhelming majority of them don't amount to anything as there's a reason they go undrafted or don't go higher, and more specifically why they end up with us (nobody is going undrafted to play here, unlike say Reaves with LA).

He's a good passer but unathletic. Beyond him being white though, I don't see the comparison with McConnell. TJ is a rim pressure and rim finishing machine which drives his entire game. Fulton is more of a Ty Jerome if anything.

Since we're big on "the plan" around here, I am wondering the more I think about it if the plan this year could be to keep Rocco Zikarsky in Iowa all season long. I think he's a guy who just needs on-court reps, and lots of them. Then in his second year on the two-way contract, he could go back and forth more, depending on his development arc.

Jaylen Clark started out a two-year two-way as well, and used that first year to rehab.
