#24 - MarJon Beauchamp - NEW POLL ADDED 12/4/23

[SirChurros]

The only way it's a red flag to me at all is if he were getting kicked out of schools or something.

Or in Jalen Johnson’s scenario it was the sign of habitual character issues with either him/his camp. Both in high school at IMG and at Duke.

No one is saying it’s an automatic disqualified. But four schools is not the norm and does warrant digging.

I think we're all basically saying the same thing. Yeah, it's worth looking into and in this case there's nothing that really jumps out to me. Would you agree? It seems to all be either following his coach or going to a school where he felt like there was a better opportunity for him basketball-wise.

I would agree, yes. Not arguing that it’s something in Beauchamp’a case. But I do think it’s something you have to look into and I’m assuming the Bucks did.

I have a personal family experience with switching high schools. My sister went to three high schools her last two years, two her Sr. year, to put her in better situations to become a Dr. It worked out well.

So, I have no problem with parents of athletes doing the same type thing.

That’s cool and all, but it is a fair point to bring up. I don’t necessarily agree with it being a red flag, but I can’t fault someone for thinking it is. Especially when we have seen it from notable busts like Jalen Johnson.

The business of basketball has changed. It's important to look at it from that perspective. Kids switching schools for better competition, more eyeballs, etc. is going to become far more commonplace than it's already been. Automatically assuming it's a red flag when everything is moving in this direction is rather shortsighted imo.

Its no different from the business world. It could be totally fair for a recruit to have 3 jobs with 3 companies in 3 years, but it could also be a big flag. If you bounce around that much as it could be a sign you don't stick around when things get tough nor really get that deep knowledge of your responsible areas. Or it could be a plus where you are experienced with different systems and cultures. It's definitely some kind of flag to look at, but the individual circumstances either make it a red flag or a positive in the persons career.

I'm going to need to see some yearbooks before I commit to an opinion.

[ackypoo]

Yeah, it seemed like the organization was desperately hoping for Nwora to step and up and be a rotation player this year and he couldn't make the leap. It's probably time to move on and use his roster spot elsewhere.

not just yet. some people take a minute. he'll find his consistency on offense and then itll all come together for him, imo. his defense will never be great, but teams can always use a bench gunner.

Four yearbooks from four different schools! How are we going to draw conclusions and account for the different yearbook editors?

Nah Nwora has shown he is strictly catch and shoot and has slow feet on D, pass, next. We just picked up another gunner on a two way

[JayMKE]

Eh Id probably give Nwora another chance in camp to make the roster and maybe keep him around on the Herd.

[Badgerlander]

Nwora’s roster spot and minutes make the most sense to give to Beauchamp. If say Wes doesn’t come back then we need to find another player of his caliber to fill that spot not Nwora. I guess if for some reason Thanasis doesn’t come back then we could potentially keep Nwora on vet minimum but signing him to the Herd makes more sense to me.

[4xBuck]

As one of Nwora's supporters, I wouldn't mind if the Bucks move off him. Something seems to be missing in his game. Either BBIQ, desire or something else. He just seems to be too flawed to be a rotational player.

With that said, he should have a path to next years roster. He had a short offseason, he was in the Olympics, too. So, if he's rests up, gets in great shape, signs a team friendly deal and shows he wants to play team ball. I'd bring him back under those circumstances.

Guys under contract-
1. Giannis
2. Mids
3. Jrue
4. Lopez
5. Grayson
6. Pat
7. Hill
8. Killdozer
9. Beauchamp

Guys we need back-
10. Portis

12. Big to replace Ibaka
13. Carter or another PG (Molinar?)
14. Thanasis

I don’t see room for Nwora

[benultimate]

I'd take Nwora back on a minimum deal, maybe minimum 1 + 1 team option (we'd end up giving him a player option knowing Horsty). Anything else its Sayonara Jordannwora

This clip in particular made me quite moist. Rips the defensive rebound, takes the ball full court, weaving in between defenders and hits a pullup midrange.

[4xBuck]

Yes!

If the big concern is his jump shot, and say what you want, but it's not bad. It's certainly not broken.

[Ron Swanson]

No room for Nwora with Middleton, Pat, Grayson, MarJon, and probably Wes all on the roster taking up the wing minutes. I'd give him a camp invite and let him stick around the Herd, but that's about it.

I'm also fairly certain Thanasis accepted the PO.

Discuss Nwora etc in the other thread.

He played at 4 high schools but he attended at least 5 having transferred before the end of his senior year after the basketball season
