It's been a yearly offseason training session with Klutch clients.
Won't amount to a hill of beans if he can't play at least 70 games. His $30 million contract starts this season.

Very true.

I am hoping for 60 games. Anymore will be a blessing!

I have definitely been underwhelmed by Jalen's halfcourt scoring prowess.

JJ needs to add a mid range jumper in the 12-15 feet range -- similar to what Giannis developed.

(A post game to abuse mismatches in the post would be useful, too.)
