It’s not a surprise why they were so quick to two way and not give him a shot at the roster lol. Christ how bad is the G league that he scored 27 PPG?

JD averaged 13 PPG last season in the g league.

Walsh must have a tatum like plus minus when he's on and off the court.

I'm super high on him.

JD, otoh, not so much. I really liked Craig Porter Jr and wish we could have brought him in. He's doing very well for Cleveland.

Scrubb annoyed his teammates playing like they're honoring his name.

I always saw Keels as a slightly quicker Marcus Smart. If he can stay healthy, he will be a good player in the NBA.

rare mistake there by Walsh. Gotta close out closer there on Charlie Brown Jr, who has been hitting shots on us all game..didn't even get a hand up. That was weird.

It's never a bad thing to have some scoring punch off the bench. I'd be fine with giving Scrubb a roster spot.

Yup just seeing that, not sure where I saw 27 PPG. Must have been wrong. Okay yeah he wasn’t even that good in the g league. Kinda surprised we were so certain we wanted him on a two way. Hopefully this will pay off.

He's keeping them in the game when nothing else is working and most everyone is terrible. So yeah.

It is strange. He was much better than this in the G League. Anyway the lackadaisical defense is the most concerning for me. Everything else can be improved but players rarely get better defensively. I think.

You might as well offer it anyway

I don't think he's Javonte-level but he's the one dude in SL besides Walsh who hasn't stunk

Here’s your Celtics SL recap:
1. Walsh looks promising!
2. JD does not
3. Banton may be an interesting depth piece, but either he is recovering from a hand/finger injury or he is atrocious at putting the ball in the basket
4. Champaigne does not seem to deserve a roster spot
5. No one else is of much import, but you could invite Scrubb, Azubuike, and Balcerowski to camp if you didn’t have many irons in the fire and see if they agree to be there.

At the least.

I'm good with giving him getting the 15th Spot. If he doesn't take a Two-Way, for his last year of eligibility.

I'm not sure he's eligible. I thought the most you could have is 3 years experience during the season you're on a 2-way. Which means no more than 2 years experience prior to signing a 2-way. Scrubb has 3 years experience.

Last year, Kabengele was very old for being on a 2-way. But he only had 2 yrs of NBA experience prior to signing his 2-way..
