I don't like him at all, he's not a particularly useful player.
At least it will probably only be a two-way, I'd just rather give it to somebody that hasn't had many chances.

I like him, remember one game where he carried a 4th quarter for the wolves by himself and i was wowed. He can do a lil bit of everything but at a sub par average. High energy guy who had little to none opportunity.
He's gettin the 2 way contract for sure... right?

I remember some wanted to trade for him a couple years ago. He sucked then and he still sucks now. I guess he's just a body, but still feels like a waste of a spot and our time...

I thought this guy was diagnosed with some sort of blood disorder?

Now if only he can play solid basketball five years into his career, we'll have something!

I've always liked Adriene Payne since
I don't mind seeing him in Lakeland.

This also gives the Magic 2 power forwards suffering from asthma on the roster.

Wasn't there two Adrian Paynes in one year or successive drafts? One was an intriguing potential 2-way player who could block shots and shoot the 3. Did we get that one? Or did I just imagine that one altogether?

I dunno what kinda strain of weed you're smoking tonight. I think there's only one, and he sucks. He's a 1 way player and that 1 way was only athleticism and he rarely shows that now.
Joking about the weed lol but are you thinking of Cam Payne? They're similarly talented and we're almost taken at the same pick in different years.

Payne seems pretty old for a 2 way deal. Wouldn't you rather use them on more of an unknown higher ceiling type of talent?

At least we have finally addressed one of the 2 way contract players in Adreian Payne. 1 more of the 2 way contract player still to choose.

Tldr: One has no hair and is bad, one has a lot of hair and is bad.
