Did you know that no team has ever won summer league and gone on to win the championship? I suppose it has something to do with good teams selecting so low in the draft. But I’m happy not to win it haha!
Adou is out of control and needs to slow it down a tick. Lots of effort and hustle Kaluma has some skills and looks like we should find a way to keep him Carr is smooth with a nice shot and can create All of them need to work on FTs I'm surprised that so many players have trouble with FTs
Adou seems to think he can take his dribble and big a** body through the tiniest spaces. On the plus side what a lob threat though with his hops and those huge mitts on the ends of his arms …. and he hit another 3 plus has nice FT form and often nothing but net. He’ll be in the rotation this year for sure. Hope our player development guys areas good as Handy was for us …. big shoes to fill there.
These guys were very entertaining. Manon and Adou had some bad turnovers down the stretch. Not concerned because they won’t have to carry that kind of load on the parent club.
Manon looks good doesn’t he on that 2-way / maybe a future spot. Someone remarked a few days ago it looked like the coaching staff told him to push it more on offense to score and he’s looked better there as the tournament has gone on. Very good and heady on D. And anticipation and play making. Adou too with the many different “types” of glimpses he shows us out there. They’re spectacular at times. Has hit a couple 3s and his FT stroke is nice and swishes most of them. Wow on his lob capabilities!!
Adou with the left handed finish on the lob was really impressive. His leaping ability is amazing and the talent is there. He's just really raw Manon was a little out of control at times like the last drive where he should have been looking to pass and he got locked up. He is a good rebounder and has a shot. Needs more time in the G league IMO
Suder didn't play and Kaluma played starter minutes. Expect him to get that 2-way in the next few days. Lock him up! Great stats by Thiero while Carr struggled a bit this game. Really liked the development through the summer league of Carr, Adou, Manon and Kaluma. Great to see some youngsters showing promise, we'll need a few of them to pop in the next couple years
I do like that they played hard the entire game Defense was aggressive which is good to see Coach Ty Abbott had them prepared
To counter his straight line drives, He needs to develop: 1. A floater in the lane to use when he can’t shoulder through his man 2. A Euro Step 3. A pump fake while stopped near the rim 4. A drop step through while stopped near the rim He’s young, so there’s still plenty of time.
