Really wish Ulis was able to go. Good to check Mike James progress though. I like the ball movement and that everyone that grabs a rebound can dribble down the court.

Fox is going to be so much better than Ball

If Fox gets bigger, he can be a young Rondo. I think he is going to be good.

Jackson looks like Marion.

CONSTANTLY moving, boxing out and hustling.

Bender looks comfortable but that shot is very flat...

Bender with poor shot selection so far.

Jackson's being left open at the top if he can get confident with the 3.

I'm impressed with JJ's handles. Only saw the highlight videos prior to today.

I know it's only summer league but some guys could be smarter with their shot selection. Bender/Chriss settling for jumpers instead of looking to attack the paint (like Josh Jackson did).

Oh hell yeah that was a beauty of a set lob play. Warriors like with post entry specifically for playmaking.

I see Josh as a Point Forward. I definitely don´t see Bender as a Point Forward. His handles are bad. He nis gonna be great as an extra-pass big, but not creating offense off the dribble.

Josh Jackson reminds me a bit of MJ with the quickness and the handles at that size.

Sacrilege, I know.

Is Jackson's free throw technique with his left foot new?

Disagree on the extra pass big role. That's too limited. Can use him a bit like Dray as a passer - in the half court low/high post with off-ball movement, and pushing the ball in transition.

Definitely not going to create off the dribble though, first step and handle aren't there.
