Kolek is so friggin slick with the passes. I don't know how many years I've waited for an exciting PG prospect like this.
Just easy, effortless, crisp passes catching people perfectly in rhythm.

Dadiet's shots are still not falling, but he's showing up everywhere else. Hitting the boards hard. Passes and defense are standouts.
Kolek is the legit summer league star, though. His court vision is crazy. This guy is NBA-ready.

Re: Knicks Summer-league Thread July 12-22 at UNLV
Pac looks pretty good but still needs some seasoning, not worried about his shot, that will come.
Kolek looks smooth running the PG, he'll look even better when he's got the Knicks regular rotation around him.
Huk looks solid, has some nice short roll passing ability, still seems a step slow on defense sometimes but he has the recognition, just needs to catch up to the pace. He'll get it soon enough.
Rokas looks better in this second game but he still doesn't pop out at me with anything in particular, he's just solid all around but not special at anything.

Not that it matters too much, but if Kolek was handling the ball, we wouldn't be having the turnovers. Just let Kolek handle the ball and set everyone up- easy peasy!

Jacob Toppin needs to stop turning down open 3 pointers or he's going to spend a lot of time in the G-League.

In terms of nba ready for winning basketball. Kolek possibly may be ready on the offensive side as an initiator.
Dadiet and Huk are raw. I like dadiets defensive instinct though. Shot has been flat out terrible so far but that’s one of his stronger scouting traits.
West Chester should be good this year. Hope they all get huge minutes down there.

Everyone looked good in the 1st quarter and everyone looked bad in the 2nd quarter

Yeah he’s getting great looks. He has an nba body. Not a bad two way option to develop into an asset down the road

That's why just looking at box scores doesn't tell the whole story

Welcome to "Summer League" basketball. These aren't actually cohesive teams, as opposed to a collection of players slapped together with 3/4 days of practice beforehand.

Hukporti doesn't move that well, he looks heavy on defense.

Dadiet looks like a Frank Knox hybrid. The worst aspects of both. Bizarro Frankenknox. 2 years away from being 2 years away from playing in Serbia

Why do the Knicks not have the ball in Kolek's hands more? We don't need to see Washington...he aint it.
