I had been saying all pre-draft that the lock to translate for Fox speed and paired with his crafty moves is really tough to stop. Fox has just gotten wherever he wants all game. It's like how Rondo was on the Celtics or Wall right now, guys just go where they want with the ball.

Wtf didn't Hield just take that corner three? Instead he dribbled a bit and took a more difficult 3.

Buddy Hield has looked awful tonight. Fox looks amazing, and I really like Fox. Suns and Kings will be really fun to watch.

Is Tim Hardaway Jr a good comp for Buddy Hield?

According to Vlade and Vivek. . .
Buddy Hield = Stephen Curry

If you look at the top 5 players drafted in the 2017 class, all have looked good based on eye test and production wise EXCEPT for Lonzo Ball who was mighty awful. Again, one game but still, the other 4 looked like they were in another class

So how do you rank the Top 5 of this class based on the 1st summer game?
Markelle Fultz = ?
Lonzo Ball = ?
Jason Tatum = ?
Josh Jackson = ?
De Aaron Fox = ?

A little bias since I am a Celtics fan but Tatum was #1 for me, scored the most, shot the best, and hit that clutch game winner. I would go based on their debut:
Tatum
Fox
Fultz
Jackson
Ball

Well he seems to be following suit so far in summer league. Curry was *** in SL.
