Last I heard he was playing on Killian Hayes team in Germany
He messed up his knee here and never looked the same.

I don't think Anthony realized he was really hurt. He went up to Dotson to check on him after the whistle blew.

not sure... more important things happening in the US today... the basketball game is just background noise. This organization doesn't deserve our support.

Cole is the worst finisher I’ve ever seen. It’s inexplicable.

His craft with his handle for his size worries me. Short guys need to be tricky off the bounce. He isn't....mostly a straight line driver.

Everything Cole shoots just seems contested. He just doesn't generate very good looks for himself, partly because of his size and his struggle to separate off the dribble from defenders.

Man when Vuc misses a three for some reason it always make a loud clank. It is like he makes the ball 5x heavier. So weird.

Bone hasn't played much but I've liked what I've seen from him in these few minutes.

I actually like this Bone kid.

Birch is really growing on me with how hard he plays.

Ross had Bone wide open and he was locked and loaded. Bad look Human Torch.

I'm just going to pretend that Bone is the player we just spent the 15th pick on. I like what I'm seeing.

Trade a future 2nd to Charlotte for Grant Riller and make him our backup PG for cheap. I always thought he'd adapt to the game the way Flynn has for Toronto.

I hate that I’ve already cast judgment on Anthony, but the things he doesn’t do won’t improve much with time.
