Anthony Black, Jett Howard or Tristan da Silva?

It's probably going to be Da Silva. His game is more polished.. he can do more things and appears to be a glue guy.

It''s da Silva. Best overall player of the three. Better overall game and more opportunity based on positional advantage.

Yeah I don't get it man. I thought SL injuries were supposed to be "freak accidents" is there any data that backs up that it is more or less safe then shooting around in the gym?

You have a higher chance of injury playing games. That's common knowledge.

This guy is perfect for us. Blue blood, #1 high school rank, injured , bad SL stats...

THANK YOU!!!

I always bring this up on the main board when people are arguing that 2nd and 3rd option players are better than Paolo because of efficiency.

Obviously don’t want anyone injured but these 3 are depth pieces right now and would benefit, especially AB and Jett from getting more reps in this summer.

Rob Dillingham went 2-12 and scored 5 points against the Pelicans in the game before ours. Minnesota has a really good team and only scored 81 pts. It's possible they have some really good defenders.

Haha. Good one!
I didnt have Sarr or Clingan in my top 10. But SL is not exactly a guide to future success.

2024 was considered one of worst draft classes in years ( probably since 2013) . So i'm not suprised people struggle, but it's still just SL and not something worth paying TOO much attention.

LAS VEGAS - Franz Wagner, selected eighth overall by the Magic in the 2021 NBA Draft, played in four of Orlando's five summer league games in Las Vegas and averaged 8.0 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.2 steals.Aug 18, 2021

We shall see how this plays out in the end.

https://www.nba.com/magic/news/review-franz-wagner-nba-summer-league-20210818#
Let's keep it apples to apples. Compare Silva's summer league performance to 23 year old Franz's summer league performance.

That is a crazy good overall stat line, though.

Or it matches our needs just perfectly.

The faces of coach and Suggs look really interesting, too!

Wiz are going to Wiz. Still drafting players on measurebles instead of actual ability, skill, IQ.
