Black developing a floater would be super helpful.

I REALLY like that Jett is doing all of this in the flow of the offence, and not forcing it or calling his own number
I still believe in Magic! Welcome to the Franz & Paolo era

that's his bread and butter on offense right now... which is why he just needs to be confident and aggressive whenever he does get minutes.

That's like the 2nd or 3rd time David Steele has botched Chuma and Jett's name. Shame on you Steele. Keep Chuma away from Jett.

That would be wonderful. Although remember DS not being much of a ball handler.

I mean, honestly i think he fits with the starters better than Suggs or Harris. A much better spacer, and a good secondary creator. Im guessing he will start before Xmas.

Black, i dunno, im not seeing the tight handle i wanted to see, and his passing is good but not elite. For someone with zero jumpshot, you need to be Ricky Rubio as far as passing/handles or you wont last. Im worried.

I like that Black is a big defensive wall with good vision but wow is his shot UGLY! Jett has been looking good out there playing against the YMCA team hopefully that transfers over to NBA level competition.

Everything else is pretty good though.


He wont be in the NBA in 3 years if the shooting/scoring doesnt improve.

His defense alone will get him a second contract because I can see him becoming elite. But he has got to figure out his shooting.


He is hesitating a lot, just be aggressive.

I agree with that however Steele's vision has diminished greatly over the years.
