2025 Vegas Summer League Game 2: Toronto Raptors (1-0) vs. Orlando Magic (0-1) - 6pm

Man if Penda gets bigger/stronger. That Center position in a few years would be his

It's not 2018 anymore. Penda isn't guarding Jokic, Embiid, Zubac, etc. The league is trending toward bigger centers again with picks like Edey, Clingon, Yang, etc. He is looking great though.

I would argue he is the exact type to guard Jokic. Caruso type players are being played on Jokic now.

Da Silva with 5 turnovers already.

Penda could've had a couple of more assists if his teammates could've made layups.

That sounds familiar.

Caruso got the 'he's little so he can't possibly be fouling a big guy like Jokic' benefit. I doubt a guy like Penda gets that benefit... and how weird is it that the nba allows players/matchups to be ref'ed that way?

[ORLMagicGirl15]

This team fouls a lot.

They didn't credit Penda with another block yet. He blocked a 3 pt shot.

Trending back? you only named 3 legitimate Centers who play more than 30 minutes a game and 1 of them is constantly injured.

I'd argue if you could name more that 10+ quality Centers like you could for the SF or PF position i could see it.

Also, most of the modern Centers are around Penda's size.

This lineup can't beat a D2 team lol

[eyriq]

Penda Bear!!! His teammates too slow

[SOUL]

Keep running idiots

I was not expecting Penda to be used as a ball-handler/playmaker. It's an interesting wrinkle for sure.

[eyriq]

Penda > TDS?

[basketballRob]

Penda > TDS?

I think so.
