:lol:

This story comes out every summer for every team, young guys allegedly packing on the muscle. Then the season starts and they look the same. Not everyone can be like Giannis.

I remember Arnold saying that putting on 5 pounds of muscle in a year was about the best he could do.

Kind of sacrilegious as a Bias fan, but he's 6-8 and can shoot it. So there's that. Is athletic, but not that kind of athlete and will need at least 20 pounds to look like 34. Not sure he loves contact, and Lenny would dunk on your head.

Tre Johnson looks pretty jacked in that video! He has definitely been working out since the college season ended.

This crew is eminently likable. Also: good sign if Bub has increased his range and is getting as reliable from deep as he is with the middy.

As predicted actually since he looks thicker too. I figured as he gets bigger his range will naturally increase.

DQ getting trashed on X during his SL debut, too-slow for the pace :( gonna take him a minute.
Fears not looking scared, he is drawing fouls and making FT’s, but also has 4 PF’s already.

Will Queen's motor show up once he's a pro? I guess we can answer that. Multiple possessions where he didn't even take a step towards the defensive half
