Pumped to see him play. I don't know about his defense, but he seems like a guy who just knows how to get his game off. And his tape is incredible... granted, I remember saying that about Bayless too lol

Nowell an amalgation of former Summer League breakout star, norman powell... it's a sign.

I didn't even realize he picked 24 before i wrote this original post. It's a sign.

/sarcasm: PLEASE SHOW US YOUR 3 POINT FORM!

Have a nice day

I don't have a 3 point form so I don't criticize.

Excited to see him and the rest of the guys play. Hope he actually pans out. You rarely see undersized guys like him carve out a steady role in the league so I'm rooting for him.

Watch on YouTube

fun video to watch in anticipation of later today
things that jumped out at me other than his weird shot mechanics, which seem to work for him, is his clear quickness and ability to blow by people and his general craftiness, especially around the rim

-23 and too old
-5'7 and overmatched
-Not an elite shooter

Despite all that, he got a 2-way because he is arguably the best PG in college last year.

Keyonte Johnson got drafted because of Markquis Nowell

He knew, logically, that he was safe. He wore a heart rate monitor during practices and games. Kansas State also monitored how his heart was functioning as he slept at night.

But he couldn’t shake a certain feeling. Point guard Markquis Nowell could sense his discomfort, and he reassured him: “Bro, everything is gonna be fine. The medical team, they all got you. Just go ahead and hoop, man.”

Something in Keyontae loosened. He began to trust his body, playing with instinct, the way he always had.
