Lots of KJ trying to prove he belongs on the team so far (and he does)

Big fan of head bands.

I like what I see so far, guys doing a lot without getting their shots and KJ looks good. Guys working together but mainly on defense

Impressed with that open court defensive stop by Nip and push to Tiddy.

More people should wear head bands. That head band looks sexy as hell.

If Kon is as good as McNeeley, why isn't he wearing a head band?

This is a fun group of prospects to watch together.

Simpson wants it bad. He's going to fight hard for that 3rd PG spot.

For what it's worth Salaun's handle looks much better. Did not love that logo three though.

Kalk sucks at defending the paint lol

We need another center for sure.

I wish they’d all wear head bands.

Out of the teams I have seen we look like the most PROFESSIONAL. We are running sets and playing D. Not one player looks bad so far.

McNeely will get more minutes than Salaun this year.

I'm impressed with Sion as well. All four of the picks are playing smart and hard
