Re: California Classic
Not the best from Harry these last few games. Yeah he would benefit from having a real point guard out there but he also doesn't seem as active or disruptive on the defensive end as people were hyping him to be after the first few games (perhaps its the mental side post surgery of avoiding taking charges/blocking shots). He seems like a solid defender but probably not a rim protector (a lot of easy layups from opponents while harry's been in these last few games).
A lot of people talk about a potential 2-way contract for Auguste and he looks solid but im intrigued by Wenyen Gabriel. He was a 40% 3-point shooter in college and has looked solid on defense and extremely long. Seems like a nice raw 3&D prospect.

Re: California Classic
Overall a pretty great SL for you guys. Fox looked a step above everything. Giles looks healthy and athletic and has had some very productive games. Flashed that playmaking ability last game. He's still developing but for the 20TH pick, what a find. So glad they took the long game approach with him. Bagley has notable limitations (right hand, defensive awareness, etc.), but he flashes some great things, tonne of potential. And Justin Jackson picked it up after everyone started writing him off. Should at least be a serviceable backup imo. Great stuff.

Re: California Classic
That and the dunk from Bagley are the only two things from summer league that I can call positive.

I agree with Gabriel I think he could work in small lineup's when Skal/Bagley/Giles at C. He looked pretty comfortable guarding on the perimeter even vs PG's, Gets low, doesn't move his feet to much and stays parallel.

Harry.. What I ultimately want from him is to be a solid starter and he showed that he can be that. Good motor/good kid who will develop all he can. Showed range, passing, defense, BBIQ, wasn’t able to put it all together and dominate but he is playing his first organized ball in awhile and is 20. I’m fine with him
Jackson, I’m fine with him. Has BBIQ/length/athleticism/good work ethic, and showed enough in SL that he can be a good player
Fox did look like the player we hoped he could be
It’s just about Bagley now.. I think the fanbase is disconcerted going forward about him being picked 2. I view it like this, it might’ve needed to happen to definitively relieve Divac. But ultimately he can become another weapon with Fox. Still a talented kid who just turned 19

Re: California Classic
People are looking too much end to this. The hype will be real for a couple guys performing really well in summer league and Bagley, who performed poorly, looks like a bust. You have let him play out in the season for a little bit
