I'm putting some money on him for ROY.


He was my top pick in the Poll. He's got the thing that ROY just loves. Can score...

Maluach looks like the same guy he was at Duke. He looked lost defensively. Being out position and being able to recovers, works at the college level, but NBA players are going to eat him alive.

That plus the lack of athleticism really stick out to me. I stick by my assesment from day 1, kid is going to be a bust.

Im not a fan.


I’ve never seen what others think they see with that guy. The non-Flagg Dukies are well, dookie.

I wouldnt have drafted the Konman that high, specially because he ducked the combine shameless so his subpar athletic abilities wouldnt be exposed...

He scored 11 pts in the final 5 mins on 4 drives and a 3ball. He just seems to go stretches where he's not very engaged.

Yang Hansen plays smartly and within the system.

Dude has some real BBIQ. I'm still not gonna touch the Jokic thing, but he's clearly got eyes around the league that aren't typical for rookies. In this game there were multiple times he's pointing out defensive mismatches on the court in realtime.

It's still messy Summer League play, but he's already got some impressive eyes on the court where you can see why the Blazers YOLO'd that pick.

Reed Sheppard would’ve won rookie of the year had he been drafted to bad team.

Maluach had a nice game, well rounded and productive. A good sign of things to come. Same with Kobe Brea, with a silky smooth 4/5 from distance. Too bad Fleming didn't get any run today, but I expect he'll get some in the next one.

Did Flagg do anything wrong in his debut apart from the shooting?
Because even the MVP shot 8-27 in the biggest game of his life...
So shooting doesn't really measure how good you are.

I was surprised that Charlotte didn't pick him.
