A 6'5 backcourt player who is actually a perimeter defender? Garrett was the 2020 Naismith Defensive Player of the Year. He's actually got pedigree. Top 50 high school recruit. Kansas. Miami liked him until he broke an arm.

Not going to try to convince myself this guy at age 26 is going to turn himself into an NBA player at this point. Only thing that is worth note here imo is that it is nice for the team to reward one of their own, Swarm player with a bit of a payday on a 10 day contract. He is going to make 2x what he makes for the whole Gleague season in the next 10 days.

Team jpete has legit grown men who are tough and defend. Unless nsj gets red hot, I can't see them winning. Team jpete also has a real pg and size.

Team Peterson has guys who are currently in the league. Meanwhile, the headliner of team Mitch has been MIA since he got cut.

These teams are weird, JP gets #6 and a guy we are paying 15 million for? His team should be better than a bunch of known failures hand selected out of Mitch's bag.

Theo Maledon would be better than probably anyone on Team Peterson, he is having a great year playing for ASVEL in Europe, leading them in scoring and assists and record or 15-6.
