I just don’t see it with him as an NBA player.

Yeah. Me neither.
Good Luck to him, elsewhere.

Maine Celtics Notebook: JD Davison dazzles in blowout win, Jordan Walsh appreciates 3am G League assignment, Miles Norris catches fire
The Maine Celtics made history with a playoff franchise record of 20 three-pointers, blowing out the Capital City Go-Go to advance to the next round of the G League playoffs.

JD Davison is unstoppable
Davison put together a ridiculous performance against the Go-Go, tallying 38 points on 15-22 shooting, 12 assists, 4 rebounds, and 2 steals. He was also a +38 in his 37 minutes
“He’s just really in control of whatever he’s thrown at him,” Lashbrook said. “He’s basically —at this point through this season and last season — seen every coverage that you could possibly see, whether people are being aggressive with it, whether they’re trying to go under, whether they’re weakening, whether they’re playing zone, he’s seen all those coverages. He works on those coverages every day, and he’s got answers for all of them.”

While Davison has always been elite at playmaking and driving to the basket, he’s making strides in other aspects of his game, like three-point shooting, defense, and being a vocal leader.
He struggled from beyond the arc earlier in his career, shooting 26.6% from three last season. This year, he’s shot a career-best 33.3% from three, and he hit 7 of 10 in Tuesday’s victory.

He’s also made it a point to improve as a defender — in this one, he matched up with Kira Lewis Jr. and helped hold him to 2 points on just 1-7 shooting. Lewis was drafted 13th overall in 2020 and played in the NBA for four seasons, which Davison said motivated him.

Miles Norris can really shoot
Miles Norris, who signed a two-way contract with the Celtics last month, hit his first four three-pointers en route to a 16-point night. He shot 5 of 6 from the field and also racked up 3 steals and 2 blocks in 27 minutes.

“It was good to see him aggressive,” Lashbrook said. “It was good to see him take those opportunities. I thought that he impacted the game on both ends — just his athleticism, his size, his attention to detail on the all the game plan stuff I thought was massive. He was huge.”

Celtics general manager Brad Stevens, assistant general manager Mike Zarren, and Ashley Battle, the assistant general manager for the Maine Celtics, all sat courtside for the game.

Norris looking good is a reminder of how Brad has been a successful bargain shopper back to his college days onward--and so his skillset is likely a good buffer against new PE/cost-cutter ownership.

Personally, I wouldn’t be a happy camper if Davison was given a standard contract rather than Peterson.

Kinda dumb that it's only on Tubi. I've never used that app and wasn't really trying to.

Yeah. The G League needs to get a little more uniform.
Tubi is free though, right?

Sooner or later, they'll figure out that they can make a buck on advertisements.
Maybe then they'll be a bit more stable, as far as channels go.

MVP JD Davison with 32 points and SEVENTEEN assists w/ just 2 turnovers in another win. Miles Norris with 27 pts on just 12 shots. Walsh with 19/11/4/1/1 while Peterson chipped in 14 & 6.

MVPJD strikes again. Surely you have to give him a chance with the big club at some point. Just let him run pick and roll for 40 minutes in one of the last couple games of the regular season or something.
