Jabari doesn't need handles. He can just thrive attacking closeouts. He just needs to be good enough defensively and have confidence next to Green and Sengun. You can do role player stuff and still be better than alpha level scorers.

That's going to be a must-watch game.

Ivey has surprised me with his shooting and passing so far.

If Jabari doesn't develop his handles he will just focus on defense even more. A 6'10" all-NBA caliber player is worth a top 5 pick.

i thought jabari took some great shots last night. they just didn't fall. i think he will be fine. his defense was pretty great too.

I didn't know Banchereo was that big, he's 6'10.5 250lbs

He's bigger than Bron, he has best player in the league potential. Before I was calling him a bigger Tobias, but when you actually see what a bigger Tobias could be, its crazy

Banchero reminds me of C-Webb.. He's going to stuff the stat sheet for sure.

I didn't watch Jabari much in college. Is his demeanor about the same now as it was before? Or I am onto something by thinking he seems weirdly depressed or something?

He seemed really bummed on draft night and just doesn't look like he's having much fun in Summer League. And it's making me wonder about him. But maybe I'm making the whole thing up, which is why I'm asking. If this is just his usual personality it obviously works for him, so I'll stop worrying about it lol.

If you want to be a top 20-30 NBA player you absolutely need a handle.

They're "next up" and could show signs of raising the Warriors back to 2017 heights.

More Wiseman and Kuminga than Moody. It'll be real interesting to see what they do.

Agreed it's a must watch

How confident are we in Jabari’s height? I don’t see 6’10.

After 5 games in 9 days, I’m very impressed.

Man, it has the potential to be so much fun. Fox and Sabonis only played 9 games together so i feel we may surprise a few people if we can stay healthy.
