VJ is a tough nosed pitbull dog. He’s built for Philly. I think he’s gonna have game changing defense and highlight reel dunks and blocks from day one. Loved hearing that their family came from nothing. That hard work, hunger, and drive to get better will potentially catapult him to an all star level type player. Definitely good for the culture and a great locker room guy.

How long before Ace gets tricked into joining an MLM?

Tre Johnson and Bubb Carrington backcourt would be fun.

Look what they did to my boy. Into the hellish vortex of the swamp. Keep your head up my defenseless king.

We keeping him. A trade would have been announced before he started his interview if we selected him for someone else.

This is one of the only times I've felt happy to see these guys just get drafted. Good for Tre, he rocks!

Essentially everything you hear regarding "Ace" is rampant sensationalism.

Imagine Tatum or Durant shooting 69% from the foul line in college. 'Hyper neptune beast monster wing', who... can't dribble or pass and has a busted jumper?

Utah are getting a peak outcome for this player if he becomes current stage Rui Hachimura. More than likely Kevin Knox.

Get VJ in with Halen and work out with Maxey every summer. If he improves at the same rate Maxey did, VJ will be really good.

If New Orleans goes with Fears, that's a homerun. I could see them going Maluach though.
