Hansen is certifiably Summer League legit. Glad to see it. Now, hopefully it translates further to the big league.

He scored 11 pts in the final 5 mins on 4 drives and a 3ball. He just seems to go stretches where he's not very engaged.

I just need more than 10 minutes a game every 3rd or fourth game. I'm probably being unfair and I should give him a chance to play a second season, but I'm very dissapointed he hasn't stepped up.

He's injured. Might miss Sunday as well.

Reed might be the weirdest player profile to ever record weirdly high stocks lol.

Makes you wonder if Jerry West would have been able to replicate his success in those regards well too.

So shooting doesn't really measure how good you are.

You are right, but it is a dumb comparison. We know enough about SGA to know he usually shoots way better than 8-27.

We don't know what Cooper's shooting profile is yet.

Maybe not everyone is aware, but Flagg played in the NCAA

Which is very different than the NBA.

Only 25 shots to get 28 points.

In summer league.

I believe both involve playing basketball. And NCAA is definitely more structured than SL, similar to the actual NBA.

I only saw a quarter or so of Yang but it looks like dude can actually play - decent athlete with size, slick passer, got some blocks, and seems like he has good BBIQ.

Some people were making fun of Portland during the draft but we might be looking back at that pick as a steal someday.

he was a 3-4 year project. Not sure why people expect him to put the necessary 30 lbs of muscle on in one year. He's clearly put on about 10 lbs of muscle already and it's already affected his game positively. He looks so much better. I'm betting that by next summer he'll look the part of a lottery talent. This goes for many of the 2024 kids btw. They were either projects or drafted on teams giving them no minutes. When the dust settles everyone will eat crow about that draft class.

Woo, Jakučionis is no longer a bust guys !

Holland looks really good. Was in control and that shot is butter now.

Pistons are still going to keep getting better considering the core players are mostly all young.

I think Detroit will be a contender in the east this year if everyone is healthy. No way they won’t be. They all defend.

Kon was more consistent that KJ in college and KJ had a rough SL until the last game for Miami. Kon will bounce back, just nerves. Meanwhile Utah looks like they will be fun to watch and Piston continuing their steady climb.
