Ive been high on Huff even during his college. Would have thought he would have a spot in the league already.

7'1 shotblocker? NYK or those thin at frontcourt should sign him already

G-League DPOY in 2022-2023 and Mike Malone literally gave him no burn all last season as a two-way. Just baffling coaching.

Where did he play last season?

I thought he was still on a 2way with the Lakers?

If he continues to play the way he’s playing Wendell Carter Jr might be traded by the end of the game :lol:

Anthony Black and Jett Howard getting more playing time hopefully and Tristan da Silva coming in as a rookie, looks like a seriously impressive addition to the already very deep and good core in Orlando. These guys can play ball.

Terrence Shannon needs to do something about that hair. He looks like Bram Stoker's Ghetto Dracula.
From a fundamental standpoint it is better for a man to have nothing but be under the protection of Jesus Christ than for him to have everything he could ever want yet be completely without.

Oh my lord Terrence. Posterizing dudes is a good start.

Cavs Summer team sucks.

Them and Spurs summer league team gotta go play in Death Valley. You only get air conditioning if you win.

Huh... Malone didnt give him garbage time minutes? For a team that relies on starters too much, you would think you want to protect them

Terrence Shannon looking like the best player on the floor by far. Defense, driving, 3's, two great passes his teammates weren't ready for....and Dillingham just keeps feeding him.

He only played Huff if they were up 20 with 2-3 minutes to go. Jay had 20 total games, averaged 2.5 minutes in those said games. G-League guys can get up to 50 games of NBA action. He took 10 more shots in 7 games with Washington in 2023, then he took in 20 for the Nuggets in 2024.
