Not only because of his game play, but because of the young man he appears to be.

P.S, That’s a bloody nice looking left arm. Can’t wait until it gets some more NBA meat on it.


I thought he was all bones. That arm looks like some Ivan Drago **** off rocky 4. Wonder how his calves are

I mean, he's cute - but let's be honest.........he's no Chandler Parsons.


Kelly Oubre takes that crown now.

If this kid works out for us I might be unbearable with my love for him.

I really dig hearing what he has to say and how he presents himself.

His post-game interview from today's Summer League game (2nd game overall) and how he's handled all of the interviews to this point has left me impressed with him so far. Love his attitude and seems to be a bright young kid. Really hopeful that he develops into a big time player down the road.

It's probably the most interesting type of prospect there is.

" If this guy can learn how to play basketball, he'll be really good at basketball! "

It can work, look at Giannis, but these guys have the highest bust rate there is.

I have a good feeling about him. He is a very fluid athlete who will impact games with his length. Melo is gonna love playing with him.
