This should be another excellent opportunity to give a bunch of our bench guys a nice chunk of minutes.

All aboard the Baze Bus!

Shai is getting really good at snaking to the basket.

At 8:55 In the third, Diallo goes 1 on 3 and immediately dribbles the ball off his foot and falls down.

Diallo had a pretty massive game. 27/11/1... even if it took 40 minutes to reach is notable for him...

Also, looks like Devon Hall had an interesting game as well... 12/1/4/3/0 in 24 minutes... I've lobbied for him to get some playing time before. I'm glad we got to see him play tonight. Made a couple of good reads. WIsh he would take a lightly contested mid-range shot instead > a super contested shot at the rim, though.

Hard to watch these games. They have summer league feels.
