Welcome to Charlotte : Javin Delaurier 

Post#1 » by UNCNYC » Wed Dec 9, 2020 1:14 pm

I am very happy we signed Delaurier. I have been an admirer for a while of his game even tho I don't know a damn thing about it due to the fact that he barely uses offensive moves lol. I always knew the potential was there tho. I really like this signing. Maybe he can be a backup Center.

He is pretty horrible for a 4 year player. Would be surprised if he even makes the GLeague team.

Great athlete. Horrid basketball player.

Smart, smart player. Got a solid complimentary floor game. Blows WAY too many bunnies. He'll have to carve out a career somehow from the defensive side of the floor.

I actually feel sorry for the Duke guy. As usual a UNC guy there to defend a Duke guy lol. I know he's bad but I always likes his hustle, the way he runs the floor and defense. If he can just learn to make a layup he will be legit :).

Actually, I'm surprised the Hornets don't exercise more nepotism. Though a rival, one can't deny the eternal Carolina talent pool.

But for Javin, I think like many Duke bigs he's a program player that will find his niche in the league at some point. Teams need cheap players of his type that do the little things, the smart things. He won't make the opening day roster, but he could be a good call up at the right time.
