I'm really not trying to be rude, but you do understand he was the #2 overall pick right? Like he could have worked on his craft at UCLA and been the #1 overall next year...is that the point you're trying to make? I hope you understand the whole point of this is to be drafted as high as possible.



I think you are confused because he didnt care about where he was drafted as long as the lakers chose him . If the Lakers were 8th he still wouldve wanted to be 8th .

Overall his game is lacking as far as scoring and defensively and those are things he couldve improved upon immensely in college . Now his daddy has shined a spotlight on him and guys are gonna be coming after him hard . I cant recall a point guard developing a pro offensive arsenal after they get to the nba .

So his soft stats matter and him being anti clutch and losing don't?

Its 2 summer league games. None of this matters.

That doesn't look serious for Fultz. Rolled ankle. Didn't come down on it or anything, just stepped awkwardly. He'll be okay, Philly fans.

It looks like just a bad twist, fingers crossed, doubt we see him in SL again but hopefully he's OK.

For those saying "it's just an ankle injury". Remember we thought Simmons injury was relatively benign until 6ers staff got their hands on him and held him out the whole season.. maybe sixers FO has their eyes set on Porter??

I'm not confused. The entire point is to be drafted as high as possible. If you honestly believe Lonzo would have taken less money if the Lakers were drafting 30th than I have a bridge to sell you my friend :)

He took a previously unranked high school team to a national championship. As a freshman, he helped lift UCLA from 15 and 17 to 31 and 5. Who the heck cares about wins in summer league? These comments are ridiculous.

I love how you put this because I could totally imagine the Sixers medical staff doing some ****.

JellosJigglin wrote:Kuzma seems to be a great fit with Lonzo. He's a versatile stretch 4 and moves well without the ball. This is where you'll see Lonzo's true value, is in elevating his teammates. He was never projected as a guy who was going to come in and put up huge scoring numbers. They would've kept Russell if that's what they were looking for.


Kuzma has a good fundamentals in his shooting. A real pleasant surprise so far.

Gotta better chance getting Porter with the picks they traded to get Fultz.
