this guy looks great on the hoof, i'd pick him out #1 if i watched a game of his blank canvas. ...g - league ran 0 plays for this guy, he had to let chuckers like jalen hardy chuck. Think if they ran plays for him ? ... honestly watching those g league games i don't think is as good as college for some dudes development, something to be said for being the focal point on a college team.

So, what the heck was Kai Jones doing out there? I get it, he wanted to show that he can shoot it but... he can't. So he just decided to jack up ever worse shots as he continued to miss badly hoping that one would go in? It's SL and lots of players try to do too much but I'm honestly not sure I've seen a worse case of chucking shots up. Ever. It was baffling to watch. If that's how he thinks he'll make it in the NBA, he'll be out of the league soon.

How about that Beef Stew range? It’s a set shot with an average release speed, but looks pure. Would be a big deal if he’s got that at a league average rate with decent volume.

His evolution into taller PJ Tucker has begun.

Yeah, he doesn’t seem uncomfortable dribbling, against bigs at least.

One problem going forward — his hands aren’t very good. He fumbles a lot of post entry passes, and he does the same thing on the perimeter. Duren had a nice kick out for an open corner three that Stewart butchered into a non-shot. But there’s hope that improves with time and practice.

hands are one thing I don't have much faith in players improving THAT much, we have the same problem with Wiseman, either you have soft hands or don't.

Sadly, i mostly agree.

Still, we need a PF, and Stewart’s been tagged with turning himself into one. Looking good.

i kinda feel the same about Paolo as I did Ben Simmons during his rookie year.

Cassidy Hubbarth is so good, not sure why ESPN hasn't made her the A host on all their NBA shows, although I like Malika too

Paolo is a man among boys.

Big O gonna F around and make Miami's roster

If he plays with a center that can space I can see Tari being extremely effective as roll man

Offense has been rough but man Jabari had Chet in prison out there

This class outside of a couple of guys has been incredibly underwhelming thus far.

I prefer Cassidy. Malika is okay but she just tries way too hard. Comes across weird to me

Stewart tried to do a lot more in the second game after Ivey left. Mostly ugly.

Queta looks good

Keon Ellis one of my sleepers playing well for Sac too, he'll make that roster

He's a dog on the defensive end, would love to see him out there with Davion at some point. I can definitely see Ellis and Queta both getting regular roster spots next year.

Darius Days another one of my sleepers killing it right now, he's gonna get a roster spot with the Spurs
