Thunder Waive Isaiah Roby

Zach Edey is going to be a guy that NBA teams can trust to contribute in a big way on offense, it'll just be extremely matchup dependent whether he can stay on the floor on defense.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. Has Been Waiting For This

Jaime Jaquez Jr. is playing meaningful playoff minutes as a rookie, showing that craft has perhaps become an underrated quality in the draft, compared to more traditional traits such as wingspan, athleticism or shooting.

After a dull weekend of Game 1s, a doubleheader between Knicks/Sixers and then Nuggets/Lakers delivered an excess of drama. You never know when a basketball cult might be formed or broken.

I don’t get how this guy isn’t signed - his advanced stats look decent- is this guy miles bridges crazy but doesn’t have the elite talent or something?

This was bound to happen at some point with the Thunder. They have too many picks and not enough spots for them. I wouldn't be surprised if they trade Kenrich Williams very soon. They're eventually going to have to start consolidating some pieces or picks to deal with the issue.

Concerning Roby, he's a pretty underrated role-player with a useful skill set for today's game. I'm betting a number of teams put in a waiver claim for him (unless his agent asks teams not to). Actually wouldn't mind seeing him on the Kings. I'm not too confident in Lyles and Metu maintaining the backup four spots.
