4 of the top 5 rookies on the rookie ladder are in this game, Bub/Sarr and Edey/Wells.

tontoz, this is my first time learning of Jaylen Wells.

Reading up, he was the 39th pick, and he's played starter minutes as a scorer and a playmaker. Nice pick for Memphis.

This game I expect there will be too much Jaren Jackson Jr., Jay Huff, and maybe Zach Edey. The Wizards have a speed advantage, however. Washington can win if they hit threes and outrun Memphis. Wouldn't shock me to see Poole explode for a huge game.

Vegas has that line, but Washington has rookies who are inconsistent and incomplete. They can each have a good game tonight. That would change the line.

Last 4 games he's scored 57 points at a .638 TS%. That's extremely good, obviously.

I left out Santi Aldama, another 7 footer. The Grizzlies are a very tall team.

Valanciunas getting the start.
I hope Bagley is over his illness the team may need some perimeter shooting from him.

Go Wiz!!

Kispert is in such slump…him and Valanciunas are horrific defenders.

Wizards can't hit the broad side of a barn meanwhile Grizzlies cant miss

Memphis is a tough matchup for this team. Killing us on the boards.

JJ took Sarr out of the game by dominating in isolation.

tontoz · Post #20 » by **tontoz** » Sat Nov 9, 2024 2:10 am

13 turnovers in the first half. :nonono:
