I like it.
I know he's a 24 yr old guy who played like 5 yrs of college ball in a mid major conference, went undrafted, has no NBA experience, is just on a 2-way so he's a long shot to contribute for us.
But I really like what I'm seeing in these clips. Very self aware, knows his role, keeps saying "winning" "it's all about the TEAM", do whatever I can to help the team win. And also keeps saying how he can shoot, stretch the floor.
He's saying all the right things. Seems very humble, easy going. Yet confident at the same time - confident in his shooting ability and seems confident that he belongs here.
And genuinely just seems like a good dude who is chasing his dream to play in the NBA. He (like so many guys) work so hard over a lot of years, grinding, hustle, trying to get better and stronger to try and make it in the league.
He's just trying to chase that dream. This signing gets him closer to it. He seems to be taking it in stride. Not get too far ahead of himself but believing in himself that he can do it.
I wish him luck.
And selfishly, I hop it works out because there's potential (not this season but possibly next season) for a guy like him with size and shooting ability, some athleticism and some ability to drive closeouts - if he works out, there's potential for him to possibly contribute for us next season..he could *maybe* end up being a pretty valuable depth piece for us next year.
Interested to see how it works out.
