But since he has been stashed the whole time, I suppose it's possible that we could maybe use it on him..I'm not sure, I don't have a definite answer but my guess is that we wouldn't be able to use it on guys who got drafted after the rule was put in place.
I also don't think he is ready for the NBA yet. And we have so much depth, it'd be hard for him to ever crack the rotation here.
Not sure if he's injured right now, but if he is healthy then he was a healthy DNP in his team's first game the other day (perhaps not getting mins, on the depth chart behind Shabaz Napier and Carsen Edwards..)
I'm not giving up on him either, but it's not looking good in terms of the chances he plays for Boston.
Crazy how things change. There was once a time when I think you would've said for sure that he was the answer and a better option than Pritchard. Madar remains a curiosity but unfortunately, little more than that.
