If Thibs and the coaching staff somehow work on his jumper, he's a plus, cause he's a really good defender.

honestly- I dont think his jumper matters- we have more than enough offense- I think we get the best defensive minutes of his career -assuming he gets minutes...

Delon Wright will wear number 0 in honor of his anticipated season's average scoring.

I don’t know what happened in the 25 games this season, but over his previous 9 years in the league he’s 35.5% from 3. Doubt it’ll take too much work. I think this is a really underrated addition.

Of course it matters. Imagine if Hart, Precious, and Wright are in the game together... Brunson or KAT will get quadruple teamed in the paint every play.

This is a better defensive version of Elfrid. And now you have plenty of offense around him for the minutes he plays.

He’s a steals machine but not really a good defender. Tbh, I doubt he gets much/if any burn.

we are going back the the defensive identity

Mitch / Achiuwa / Hukporti
Towns / Warren / Dadiet
Anunoby / Hart / Shamet
Bridges / McBride / Wright
Brunson / Payne / Kolek

McCullar, Okeke and Brown

NBA rosters should expand to 20 players (16
plus 4 two ways and 18 eligible for the playoffs)
Strength and Honour!

Let's hope he's a great cheerleader from the bench, because that's where he'll be spending 99% of his time.
