Definitely not in the Larry Brown school of point guarding.

Jaylen showing some good patience, keeping the dribble alive and passing out to White.

Always thought being an undersized PF was Jaylen's best position.

I'm sorry but I think cornet would have to be 8 foot 2 to grab some of these rebounds..

It's so frustrating cos you see he's capable of playing within the offense. But doesn't do it with enough consistency.

Mazzulla and Brad either need to find a way to get the current players to do better rebounding (like boxing out etc) or just get a freakin rebounder. Rebounding and 2nd chance points for the other team is a big issue for this team.
Edit: Extend Mazzulla

Except he doesn't rebound enough. Or box out.

Yeah, that's what I said earlier, Cs need to win the rebounding battle.

Can't let the Hawks have 2nd chances.
