Well deserved, he’s been playing out of his mind lately. Hopefully this gets him on the path to Allstar selection!

Well deserved!

Lets hope this leap is like the leap he took his rookie season once Suggs was out on injury and the team started getting run through him offensively. Let it build his confidence and necessity to diversify his game

Let’s not lie now. He’s always been good but he has not always been this aggressive.

If he can continue this mindset, I would love to see even Paolo take a small hit in usage to allow Franz to shine as well. Franz scoring around ~24ppg and Paolo putting up ~26ppg would be an awesome outcome and balance the offense a bit.

Props to D. Scott and D. Armstrong for making the list multiple times!

Way to take advantage of the schedule Franz!!

I meant his career became nothing, he should have stayed.
