It's Fultz, but can we get AG one too. His defense on LeBron was incredible.

Honorable mention to BJ Johnson and Gary Clark for each putting in over 20 very competent minutes.

But this is 100% Fultz's vest for being such a stone cold closer!

Fultz carried us at the end... AG deserves consideration as well... fun game all around to watch from these young men. Well done by Iwundu... Hell... they all played well.

Fultz, AG, Iwundu. These guys were incredible.

Amazing footwork, crafty attacks at the rim, great passes and overall clutchness from Fultz. (Also more than double the rebounds as Vuc and Birch, SMH)

Jaw-dropping dunks, aggressive drives, didn't settle on bad shots and great defense on Lebron by AG.

Iwundu was hustling like a madman; pushing the ball in transition, drawing contact and fouls, disruptive on defense and scrapped together a career high 19 points on only 8 shots.

Honorable mention: newcomers BJ and Clark.

Fournier and DJ for not playing :wink:

Seriously though... Fultz. Although I almost gave it to AG. He was great on both ends and had 2 of the sickest dunks of his career.

Cummerbund for Iwundu. He gave the Magic everything. Matching James in scoring output is unexpected.

Mittens to Clark. No idea of the schemes and sets, and he plays very important minutes.

I had to triple check the box score for Iwundu's stats. This board told me he isn't good enough for the G-League, let alone the NBA.

Actually he is G league level player, but even them are capable of having good nights , if you give them 3 years of free-pass to do something.

Tonight some guy named Svjatoslav Mihaljuk scored 21 points in NBA.

Easy decision to vest Fultz, but lots of good unexpected contributions up and down the roster. Iwundu, Clark, Johnson all played better than I thought they would.

Who needs a backup PG?

I'll say this. Iwundu got a lot better from last season...like nignt and day better. He was myeast favorite player last year...i mean i hated the guy on the court. He has been quite the nice surprise this season

I really wanted to vote Iwundu because of the hate he gets around here and because I love his hard work on the court, but my goodness, Fultz. :o

I never understood the Iwundu hate. I mean it's cool to not like him I guess but I find it funny how often he is brought up in game threads considering how little he plays and how little responsibility he has on the court. He's a complete afterthought to me.

Quinn Cook was the Lakers leading scorer. How is that possible ???

Dude, try to enjoy your life! You're the forum equivalent of an ice bath (probably good for you to experience and beneficial to your development, but entirely devoid of positive moments)

It was a great game. Iwundu played great. He might never play great again so instead enjoy this rare treat! Life's too short to be perpetually cynical.
