He shot 38.4% from 3 & 97% from the line in the g-league, but he's not a shooter cuz he was just a solid shooter & good defender in college a few years ago. You know 3&d is a specific role, right?

AJ Green, as a 4 yr player, in a mid major conference, shot 37.8% from 3. In the NBA he's shot 42.1%. This just in - many players become better shooters over time w/ practice, especially when they start with a good foundation. AJ Green once became a thing, starting in summer league.


Are you serious with this or is it a bit that I'm just not getting?

His scouting report says he could develop into a sharp shooter, who knows

He's going to be 27 at the start of the season. He's done developing by many years.

Am I the only one that sees a bit of Gadz in Nance? He’s a bit spazzy.

He sounds like a genius compared to Scott Perry (new kings GM). Horst needs to get him on the phone ASAP

Don Nelson invented the point forward role when he hasmd Marques Johnson play the position, $5 says he did it better.

So no counter-argument to the relevant analog I provided. But sure, you know better than the OKC Thunder scouting department he's a viable trial.

Ok Ryan might be "old" but he seems to have more basketball IQ and ability than half our roster lol. I remember people laughing at people saying Green was going to be something, just saying :) (not saying ryan is going to be aj)

Smith hasn't hit shots like he did in other games, but he actually looks like a better prospect now. Bending better, defending, and driving.

It's because of the shooters.

Believe it or not, but Malik Williams was a good 3 point shooter last year. Not showing it tonight

AJ Green was three years younger in his first professional season. Cormac Ryan shot 40% on low volume in the G-League as a 26 year old. Seriously, what in the hell are you talking about? This has to be a bit.

If dude can play, don’t really care about his age especially if he is a 2 way. Now….can he play, I have no idea but I see a decent looking shot, unselfish play and a willingness to D up. Intrigued.

I just wanted to make the Cormac joke. We should sign that dude even if we have to stretch Giannis.
