Would be a solid choice for a two way if he’s eligible



He's not. Full rostered player for 4 years.

Not being sarcastic but im just really curious why is it in what seems like every player that gets cut but a not as good of team as milwaukee is someone we need to go after or sign to a 2 way.I mean if charlette cuts him or sac town or the knicks i swear everytime someone is cut the bucks need to picj gim up.He isnt good enough to make the team that cuts him but he would be a good pu for the bucks

Those teams aren't forced to carry the brothers of good players, so they have deeper rosters.

RoLo and Thanasis lowers us to 13 roster spots, plus we're carrying 2 rookie 2nd rounders. That makes us thin.

I want to pick up Nathan Knight on a 2 way. Do you really think he's not better than the open 2 way roster spot we have now?

Ill need to research him never geard of him im better than rolo but to short to play center.If this nathan dude is better than 1 of our rookies or rolo than i guess yes get him.Its not just nathan.We only have so many spots but im serious every player rhat gets cut or waived people say we need to pick up.lol
I think rolo would be cut way before thansis will so im assuming 1 spot open

Nathan Knight is not too short to play center, he has a 9'1" standing reach, making him longer than 7' Meyers Leonard. Also, Knight is 253 pounds and can jump.

What a gift. Yes, scoop him up!!


I'll be waiting impatiently for him to clear waivers, so we can sign him to a 2 way. He's exactly what we needed. The Knicks had depth at center, we don't.


I think Mensah was waived by the Hornets, would be a good get

Outdated, he's 253. Who cares about height, that's an outdated metric. Do you think Robert Williams is too short to rim protect too? Standing reach is what matters.

He's similar to Pat, he can jump and plays physical, but is more of a 3 because he lacks lateral quickness


The thought crossed my mind that they might be kicking the tires on GRIII to see if he can be a Pat replacement if they need to move Pat for an upgrade at the 2 with a point of attack defender like Caruso or Wright but then I feel like AJJ might be that guy anyway.
Dealing with people who exhibit the "smartest person in the room" syndrome can be a challenge. One approach is to listen their opinion while also encouraging open-mindedness. It's important to create an environment where all voices are valued.

No thanks on Nowell then. No place for another questionable defender on this roster.

I care. Standing reach above 9’ is definitely a necessity for a center, but I prefer my centers to be closer to 7’. Personal preference. Mensah is bigger, better defender, and a year younger than Knight. Knight is definitely athletic, good rebounder and shooter so I wouldn’t be upset. My difference in opinion to yours is never a personal attack and feel free to not attempt to put words in my mouth or paint others as ignorant to try to add value to your own opinion. If anything it paints yourself as immature which is unfortunate because your ideas are good on their own merit.

Not really seeing much of a difference between any of Knight, Mensah, and Marques Bolden TBH. Would prefer we either convert Livingston to a 2-way, or get some other younger dude with upside for that vacated spot. The hit rate on 25-year old project players has to be extremely miniscule.
