Maluach just got sent to the Gleague. I know there were a few people who wanted us to pick him at 6.

Sending a center to the G-League is often a real bad sign.

Wings can get good experience in the G-League because the difference between an NBA wing and a G-League wing is actually quite small. But the difference between NBA big men and G-League big men is huge. Basically, all the 7-footers on the planet who can walk and chew gum at the same time are already in the NBA. The only guys in the G-League are either undersized or uncoordinated. Sending your big man there barely even helps him develop.

I never liked Maluach. I saw nothing special about him at all but I suspect he will at least be a rotational big in time. I'd be surprised if he is a complete bust.

The Suns sent both Maluach and Fleming to the G-League for playing time and development, the Suns have a plan, no issue at all with sending them both, that’s what the G League is for.

Raises hand sheepishly. I'm satisfied w/Tre for the time being
despite how some are now reacting. It's early.
